Dave Meltzer stuff
There were several stories coming out of him being a dick backstage, he got heat for bringing "unsavory" people backstage to a show (and to be considered unsavory in wrestling imagine what that must mean), to the point it was claimed Roman kicked him out of the locker room. Plus a lot of stories popping up from people not in the business on Twitter where they are saying Enzo from WWE showed up at their club/bar/exotic dancing establishment and acted like an entitled asshole.

Enzo-the Ric Flair of 2018?
Getting publicity on social media tends to prompt authorities to do something more than just one person reporting and having it dismissed as a he-said she-said deal.

Going on Twitter can have a better success rate than going to the cops more often than not.

Enzo-the Ric Flair of 2018?
He's one of the better promos in WWE, and he did bring interest to 205 Live so he did move numbers. Unfortunately everything that came out about him behind the scenes at best made him sound like the guy who let sucess get to his head and become an entitled asshole, and at worst....well.... this.

Dave Meltzer stuff
There's been enough rumblings about Enzo that I doubt anyone's basing their opinon on him on jus one tweet.

Is TNA the worst wrestling promotion in history?
They announced a Twitch channel, which my first thought is "well at least that's a positive revenue stream", only to see as of yesterday it was still not a partnered channel. So they created a potential revenue stream with no way for people to spend money on it.

Jordan was floundering in NXT for years before he was paired with Gable and just turned the light bulb on.

Comments that don't warrant a thread - Part 4
He's one of the owners, is he not? It always makes commentary better if the announcer has a vested interest.

NXT basically exists for two reasons at this point: 1. Teach indy workers how to do WWE style and 2. Proof of concept that HHH can run a business so investors won't get spooked when the time comes that he's in charge.

I love Braun, but let's not forget what got him over was destroying Roman on a regular basis in more and more ridiculous ways. It was kind of brilliant for them to use the negative heat Roman was getting to get over a guy that same part of the fanbase would normally reject.

WWE Network... It's Here
Worldwide tended to have more competitive matches and more angle advancement. It would definitely be a great addition to the existing content.

Dave Meltzer stuff
So Dave spent most of today on Twitter dealing with people who were True Believers in WWE's "longest running episodic...." spiel they do about Raw. One of the people he responded to was legitimately wondering why WWE would be allowed to say something that wasn't true. Oh you sweet innocent child.

Royal Rumble 2018 Predictions

It makes sense if it's leading to Braun vs HHH. Stephy hires him back for her man to put him in his place.- Royal Rumble 2018 Predictions

No one here is looking forward to it I'm sure, but there seems to be a lot of folks who were kids back then who have some weird nostalgia for it. Another takeaway from watching Mid-Atlantic: Did Blackjack withold food from his boys until they were in their 30s or what? Barry as BJ J.r looks like Kendall with a porn stache.- WWE Network...

World Class was dropped earlier, so it's filling the gaps. It was also noted by the WWE Network News site that there was already confirmed to be a new drop scheduled for February so perhaps it will be the long awaited Thunder drop.- WWE TV 01/15 - 01/21
Looks like Jey Uso caught a DWI in Texas, should be interesting to see how WWE handles that.- Enzo-the Ric Flair of 2018?
Yeah but when the gimmick he's living is to emulate wrestling's greatest cautionary tale who isn't named Jake Roberts it's not something that should be lauded.- WWE TV 01/15 - 01/21
It was pretty bad booking to have the Revival do a "WE'RE GONNA SPEAK THE WAY WE WANT TO" promo when they've been in the Main Event (the show not the card position) ghetto since returning. Like why would the crowd have any reason to care what they had to say? Also it looks like their new thing is doing injury angles that are supposed to be thought of as real. Enzo last week, Nia tonight. Finn selling the return of the Curb Stomp like death was a nice touch, but of course the stupid WWE TV presentation had to stay on it so long it looked like a scene from the Office.- Paige and all that
http://www.agcwebpages.com/BLINDITEMS/2018/JAN.html To explain how they do it, normally they either post who they think the item is about (if the answer is in italics and not a link) or a direct reveal in the form of a link. Again, not saying they're gospel but if you look back through their archives they are right about stuff like this more often than not.- Paige and all that
This may be nothing, but one of the celebrity gossip sites has been doing blind items about Paige still having drug issues for a while, and now that this injury news is cover for her failing another drug test (remember she had two strikes back to back before she got surgery). So instead of having to announce she was the first person to get three strikes they can just claim she's no longer medically cleared to wrestle. I know what you're thinking, but this is also the same place that was calling out a lot of the sexual harrassers in Hollywood long before it became a movement, so it's not like they don't have a track record of being right.- WWE Network... It's Here
Is the Georgia footage in decent shape? I've never seen anything that didn't look like a 7th gen VHS transfer (even on offical WWE releases) which is odd considering they taped at the WTBS studios and Ted Turner is famous for being obsessed with preservation.- Comments that don't warrant a thread - Part 4
Also it doesn't help that he looks like he should be in one of those commericals to help feed starving children.- Dave Meltzer stuff
If Elign was covering for someome who committed a sexual assault (and it seems that is what happened) then fuck him. No sympathy for any negativity that was sent his way. - WWE TV 01/15 - 01/21
