WWE

yipeee ronda is pulling a "that doesn't work for me, brother" already what a lovely run

Big Show ain't a single child no more

Undertaker first announced, and I think I read something about Shad Gaspard getting the Warrior award. I think Taker should have the whole show himself, but maybe he doesn’t feel comfortable with that. Well-deserved obviously, one of the guys who kept the company afloat when they needed committed guys.

Figured this deserves a thread of its own. I actually think it’s more shocking that he made the announcement on ESPN, I believe the first time a professional wrestler has done so. Love or hate the guy and quite often it was easy to do both, it’s no denying he has passion for the industry and has done his level best within the company to improve it.

One of the all time great quotes in wrestling. Hall will be missed, man.

For real tho

Haven’t seen much discussion on this and I know it’s speculation, but I have a hard time believing it will be a real match if he does show up. Quick hits run through of moves (Theiz press, mud hole stomp, stunner, beer bash) and it’s over in less than five minutes most probably. Carny way to sell tickets in Texas most likely. People getting to hear the glass break and the music and be there for the pop probably won’t feel ripped off. But I honestly can’t see it being more than that, and have a hard time believing that will even happen. What does everyone else think?

Slow march to Dallas continues…

Induct Miz and Maryse into the HOF now. They are making this format somehow work.

Break him, Roman!

Well, I guess Stone Cold could be wrestling for the first time in 19 years vs KO at Mania?

Sadio Mane vs Mohammed Salah in the finals of a continental tournament is one of the biggest match-ups in soccer at the moment. I kinda miss new, huge match-ups in wrestling. AEW has done something, pick up the pace, Fed. Roman vs Goldberg is happening four years too late.

I have been watching a lot of AWA lately and it made me think about why AWA was such an easy territory for WWF to expand into and immediately do big business in. Obviously taking Hogan and Okerlund, the top babyface and the host of the AWA TV show, was a big factor. But WWF also took Junkyard Dog from Mid-South and that didn't translate into them doing business in Wattsland. I think the biggest reason that AWA did not have the same type of loyalty with their fans that Mid-South or Memphis did is because of their years long abuse of authority figures. I don't know if it extends back before this but I do know that the decision to just hand the AWA World Title back to N…

Y'know, I'd like Ivory to manage someone in the women's roster. She has more presence than nearly everyone there and the RTC gimmick is still good.

Shit is looking dire, bubbas

Honestly the best David vs Goliath match in football in a long long while Also the other football had some pretty sweet matches go suck some eggs Aaron Rodgers

Montevideo fucking rules bubbas

Word is that Jericho will make a surprise appearance. I hope they make him use his old WWE song, I fucking hate Judas.

Shit I don't even know I just hope I get Lashley vs Lesnar

Let's go Roman!!

Will WWE have enough people to fill three hours of TV? I guess that's one way to get people to stick around to find out.

Smackdown this week is taped already, so Raw will likely be the only WWE TV that matters until 2022. So far announced for Raw (which means since they announced it on their official channels then some or all of it likely won't take place) : Lashley and MVP TALKING! Edge having Maryse on his show for TALKING and I'm sure this won't at all involve Miz somehow sneak attacking him! Bianca vs Doudrop in the ongoing "wow it's clear this was supposed to be Nia Jax in this feud so when we fired her we just slotted in the other big girl we have in there" battles they are having Austin Theory vs Finn Balor where WWE will show us they know how to create a …

What's up, fools?

What TV show?

Reports are coming in about a weird situation where Jeff Hardy was working a tag match at a house show, seemed to just kind of slow down and tag out, then leave through the crowd with security following after him. WWE sent him home the next day, and the way the reports seem to be worded is like it's not the "no condition to perform" you would expect but it's almost as if he just said fuck it mid match and just walked out. Obviously considering his past it's easy to make assumptions but this seems like something odd is going on.
