Is anyone else starting to get the feeling that Dean Ambrose is going to end up the next guy in the Daniel Bryan spot? By which I mean he continues to get hugely over, but the company ignores it in favor of sticking with the status quo, possibly even to the point where the fans eventually turn on Reigns because they insist on pushing him over Ambrose. Maybe I am wrong, but that pop tonight was huge.

JBL also made a Bronco Lubich reference!

I think people on this board will appreciate this, so I am going to go ahead and share it. I ring announced a show tonight with Bobby Fulton of The Fantastics on it. Bobby is a heck of a nice guy, and was wrestling as himself in the main event. So we are backstage getting things set up for the show, and Bobby decides he wants to wrestle twice. Then out of nowhere he pulls a mask, turban, and Syrian flag out of his gear bag and decides to work the second match of the night as a masked heel known as "The Sheik of Syria." Then he pulls out a second mask and turban, and dresses his kid (who was probably eleven or twelve) in that costume and wants him to be billed as "His adviser, The Prince of Syria" So he comes to the ring in this get up, and the crowd starts chanting USA, at which he point he forces me to get on the microphone and tell the crowd that if they don't stop chanting USA, he will raise the price of Gas to 7 bucks a gallon for regular. He then laid out a prayer mat and began praising Allah, before wrestling a ten minute match that was mostly him choking, or playing hide the foreign object with the referee, before finishing it with a Camel Clutch, as his son stood outside the ring in a mask and waved the Syrian flag. Unreal! and for anyone wondering, here is Bobby these days....

So, former WCW jobber Cougar Jay is now giving ghost tours. He has a website that includes a mini-biography of his wrestling career and includes this gem.... Ahh the good old days of 1987 ECW...... Here is a link to the site if anyone apart from me (guessing I was the only guy googling Cougar Jay tonight) cares!! http://www.dionmooreghosttours.com/

Definite interest in seeing more of the linear title stuff Bill. Very interesting.

New music for Harper and Rowan is awful.

Dixie talking makes me long for the days of Sable interviews.

It's a bit fact heavy, but I don't regret buying a paper copy at full price. So for 10 bucks....I'd say yes.

Shit, does that mean Reigns will be wearing this.....

I had friends at Smackdown that took this..... Definitely better without the shirt.

Second ladder match announced for MITB with the usual MITB contract on the line. Seth Rollins is entrant #1

Apparently earlier they tweeted that if they got 500 retweets they would reveal the first match for the PPV. A few hours later they had barely broken 200 and deleted the tweet.

So are we assuming it is over? JTG, Heath Slater, Justin Gabriel, and David Otunga seem absent from the list to me.

I have to think the next big increase in subscribers will be when they open it to other countries. On another forum I frequent, the amount of UK'ers trying everything they could to get it when it first went up was quite humorous. I'm certain that will get them over the hump in the numbers they are looking for.

That sounds way too much like that Feast or Fired thing that TNA does. I'm guessing this means 2 ladder matches. Cesaro almost has to win the MITB contract. Who to put the title on is the big question. Anyone think a call from Connecticut to Chicago may have been made today?

I'll just leave this here......

Stupid, stupid, stupid.......

The thrown stairs got a legit "Holy Shit" out of me.

I know Legends House is ridiculous, but Piper and Duggan trying to cheat at the challenge and failing this week was tremendous.

I really hope that Lana doesn't go with Rusev when he inevitably gets repackaged, released, or demoted.
