Pat McAfee's a goof but he's a good hype man.

If Keith Lee doesn't end up a megastar, everyone in charge of WWE deserves to lose their jobs. Dude's money just waiting to be made.

I think KawadaSmile put too much Portuguese in the thread title for Takeover, it crashes the board every time I try to click it.

Mia Yim tweeted a photo of her Bull Nakano inspired war paint for tonight so that will be awesome.

I'm not going to be able to watch until I get home, but I saw the pics already.....it looks cool, but of all the things to change in WWE why that?

Well the phrasing "top to bottom" implied to me its not just the brass, it's likely happening on all levels and the people at the top either don't care or tacitly agree with what is going on.

Oh there's management fuckery going on for sure, but the way the internet dogpiled her when it seems pretty clear how the company views women isn't going to age well at all.

Or, maybe his source was just wrong or had an ax to grind? I mean not everything has to have ulterior motives. I know that's not as interesting an option as secret double agent sources plotting to betray Big Dave, but it's probably closer to the truth.

Anyone else get the feeling that everyone's going to be looking back sheepishly at how Taeler Hendrix got treated when she came out with allegations about Jay Lethal?

If you read the official ROH statement, it actually makes them look even more like assholes since it's them saying "we could fire her and invoke a six month non compete, but we're going to be nice about it and just let her deal expire". As if they are being magnanimous here..... "hey we *could* fuck her over and keep her from working elsewhere, but look at us being the good guy to the person calling us out on our shithead behavior".

Teddy's on ice after whatever the fuck happened with him, his missing ex girlfriend, and his pedo pal, but yes MLW has been largely a peaceful kingdom of wrestling malcontents all playing nicely.

Someone posted a GIF of Sonny Kiss twerking during the battle royal, and in the background you can see Orange Cassidy (who was lounging in the corner) lower his sunglasses in appreciation. I lol'd.

Although to be fair, there seems to be enough evidence at this point to state that GOD is pissed at ROH too.

Guerrillas of Destiny, Tanga Loa and Tama Tonga.

I don't know if something got deleted but Joey Mercury was implying that Greg the Office Boy (forget his last name) had some sort of negative opinions about Hikuleo. edit: I know GOD was upset that ROH did the Enzo and Cass shit during their match on the MSG show since apparently no one with New Japan were made aware it was going to happen.

So it seems like ACH did get his release, he tweeted a pic of him signing a legal document and is taking indy bookings. I suppose that whole deal was a can of worms WWE Legal wanted no parts of.

If nothing else, watching AEW will show you Cody clearly is working from his dad's playbook for pretty much everything he's doing.

If they keep it up, then it's not really NXT it's just another main roster show on Wednesdays.

This is so true. So many times you'll see guys set up a spot and you know something will happen to prevent it because you know there's no way they'll actually do it. With Darby, there's always a nonzero chance he'll actually do it.

Someone in the business using "marks" in a non ironic or obviously humorous way is like the wrestling version of an alt-right dickhead talking about "owning the libs".

The interview was a tryout, and Jimmy has stated in interviews since that he didn't sign because he didn't get along with Vince.

Both shows were great, funny how they were able to book all three brands to look more or less to be on even footing, as opposed to on Raw where NXT guys get beat.

...and little reason why. When your gimmick is being a crank who constantly shits on modern wrestling, and repeatedly has very nasty things to say about people just for the sin of doing wrestling he doesn't care for , people are going to line up to take their shots at you. He's reaping what he sowed for sure. Sometimes people get dunked on for little or no reason, or the response is disproportionate to the crime so to speak. This is not one of those times.

I'm digging Darby as the skate punk Undertaker

I'd bet money if Vince turned on AEW he'd probably ask why the Street Profits are on the other company's show.
