I've also read it, and enjoyed it greatly. Very good read.

Is there a single chance in hell, they swallow their pride, pony up the cash, and give CM Punk his Wrestlemania main event?

or he might come back as Festus......

I don't know how to embed You Tube, but here is the Emerald Flowsion/White Noise/Beach Break or whatever you want to call it, being done in UFC https://youtu.be/GdnvpW1AIH0

I don't understand why they are sending Barrett out there when he is hurt. The fact that he hasn't tagged in to the match, or gotten physically involved in any way, shape, or form stands out so much.

So how is Drew Gulak arresting Vince McMahon while Stephanie screeches like a fucking lunatic (who never needs to appear on my tv again) supposed to get Roman Reigns over?

Chance Prophet is a friend of mine, and he is still working regularly, but doesn't do much with the NWA anymore. Phil Shatter became Gunner in TNA. Damien Wayne is still the king of Virginia indy promotions. As for Sheik and Walker, I am not sure. Thanks for the updates....I really like Chance Prophet's character, he cut some really good promos. I didnt realize Phil Shatter was Gunner...but I also dont watch TNA, glad to see he got a bigger time role. Vordell Walker was the other I thought would see some bigger stuff eventually. It really is a shame that Prophet has never gotten an opportunity elsewhere. He is a good promo, a solid worker, and to top it off, may be the single nicest human being I have ever had the pleasure of knowing. He doesn't drink or do drugs, is a family man, is actually ordained as a minister and preaches at his local church on weekends he isn't working (but never tries to thump his bible or convert anybody), he would honestly be the perfect ambassador for the charity work that the E loves so much. I also forgot to mention that Kahagas is still working as well, I ring announced an indy show he was on in West Virginia earlier this year. I think he works a lot for some promotion in the Bahama's or somewhere tropical.

While I totally agree with what you said, I also see this as part of the current problem with the WWE. Let's pretend she had attacked Mean Gene, or Sean Mooney, or Lord Alfred Hayes, or Gorilla Monsoon, or any of the classic WWE voices......we'd have actually cared, because without taking anything away from any of the wrestlers or the storylines, they were established characters that you felt a connection too, because you understood who they were, and why they were there. These days, apart from Cole, JBL, and Renee Young...every single one of them is just a bland, interchangeable, cog in the machine, that you barely notice when they have been replaced, let alone give a shit about when they are beaten up by angry rampaging Steph. That segment could have accomplished SO much more were she attacking someone that the crowd cared about, instead the whole thing is just met with crickets.

I really like what I have seen of Su Yung, and Eagles has always been quite good. Where is this available?

If you need an opponent for Lesnar, have him be the guy to take down Strowman.

and Triple H tweeted #GAMEON with a picture of Roman beating him up, which likely means we are getting no injury selling, and a 20 minute opening promo chalk full of screechy Steph and Super Serious Hunter, followed by a 4 on 1 handicapped match against the foreign group for Reigns. Because you know....THE GAME!!! That should nicely undo everything that last night did for him.

Apparently on Dave's new radio program he reveals the identity of who will be playing Matanza Cueto. If someone who has access to that would share that information, I would very much appreciate it!

I wish the Like option was enabled so I could Like the post Ricky just made.

You keep thinking positive thoughts, and we'll keep sending positive vibes. We are with you brother.

I know the company is PG, but we could have seriously skipped all of that Tater Tot nonsense and five minutes of talking by having Reigns call Sheamus a Bitch. Not that bad of a word, and it would have gotten a much bigger pop than anything else that happened.

Well, they almost did something interesting....then quickly went back to the same old shit.

While I am a fan, I know the angles certainly aren't for everyone, I just think it's pretty cool that they care that much about continuity while the WWE can't decide from week to week if the Bella Twins are faces or heels.

I know Chikara doesn't have a ton of supporters on this board, but there attention to detail continues to amaze me. Last night at their season finale, they paid off a 4 year old angle. In 2011, Eddie Kingston hit Archibald Peck with his Backfist to the Future, and Peck claimed it sent him to 2015 where he acquired a copy of the Chikara Yearbook, which supposedly gave him insight into upcoming matches. Since then the Archibald Peck character has "died" in Chikara continuity and so far as I know RD Evans has left the business. Last night at the Chikara show, Mike Quackenbush came to the ring with the first copy of the 2015 Chikara Yearbook, and announced it would soon go on sale. The lights went out, and when they came back on Peck was in the ring, grabbed the book from Quack and after looking at it and reading about his own demise, ran out of the arena, presumably never to be seen again (since he has to go back to 2011) I know it is silly, and I know it isn't everyone's cup of tea, but when WWE can't maintain story lines for a month, and they are paying off throw away angles from 4 years ago, I find it impressive.

Am I correct in remembering there was an angle where someone (maybe The Moondogs) tossed battery acid into his eyes and blinded him? I swear I remember that from an old PWI.

So I'm watching the USWA, and it brings me to a question I've meant to ask the historians/knowledgable folk here at PWO for some time. It would probably be better suited to the old "comments that don't warrant a thread" thread, but alas that is gone, so I will ask here. My Texas/Memphis exposure was limited to what I saw on ESPN as a child and read in Apter magazines, and while I have caught some stuff as an adult it was mostly the early Texas years, leaving me to ask this question.... Why the fuck was Eric Embry so over, and pushed as a top guy?

I hope they move the USWA into a category of it's own, and actually upload some Global as well. I need some Dark Patriot in my life.

So much for the creative team. He's getting an on-air role, and you just wrote his first angle.

Holy Shit, they added nearly all of 86 and 87 to the NWA section. Just a few random dates missing.

He apparently showed up at the AAW show in Chicago last night and attacked Eddie Kingston after the main event. Apart from that, he has made no announcements regarding what he is doing.
