AEW Full Gear - Nov 13 2021
Any idea if FiteTV is going to carry Full Gear in the U.S.? Right now, all signs point to no. But it was a last-minute day-of thing for All Out, so I'm hoping for the best. I don't really want to deal with B/R, or have they improved? Edit: No PayPal option for B/R... Really?! I hate sites stuck in the '90s. Plus, you only have access to the show for three days. I believe it remains in your account with Fite. AEW's deal with B/R cannot end soon enough!

I've seen a lot of coke mentions in reference to Tony Khan lately. Is there actually anything concrete to that, or are people just wildly, irresponsibly speculating? (I don't mean you, just in general.)

Have you all heard the hullabaloo about Tony Khan interrupting a female reporter, taking some of the credit for the NWA women's PPV, and talking about his money? This article is a massive overreaction IMO, but you do get the relevant quotes, so you can decide for yourself. https://www.cagesideseats.com/aew/2021/11/11/22777201/tony-khan-all-women-wrestling-shows-very-bad-answer-aew-money-nwa-empowerrr Reporter: Tony Khan: FWIW, Tony apologized privately to the reporter he interrupted.

Is the empire crumbling before our eyes?
I'll say it: Kofi absolutely should have beaten Brock. Kofimania was red hot. Yes, the reign was slightly cooled down by pointless midcard feuds with Ziggler and the like, but Brock had been ice cold for years at that point. There is some renewed interest in Brock now, but is that really because of Brock or because of Roman Reigns and Paul Heyman? We all know the answer to that. BTW, WWE is seemingly already moving on from UUDD.

That might be the best wrestling article I've ever read. Assuming it wasn't ghostwritten, Eddie is one hell of a writer. I now want a book from him ASAP!

WWE TV 11/08 - 11/14 RIP Marilia Mendonca
That has been debunked over and over by WALTER himself. He said he'd be open to moving to the U.S.

Comments that don't warrant a thread - Part 4
That would be the quickest way to get him to become an ex-fan. That place hasn't been the same since Mark Nulty died. Now even the mods there seem like obnoxious gimmick posters, and so many of the thread come across as bad inside jokes. Also, fucking update your forum software past 1999. I realize it's a "classics" board and some may like the ancient aesthetic, but not when it becomes a security hazard (they got hacked about a year ago, which really shouldn't ever happen to a small wrestling forum, because why would anyone care?)

Came here to post this. WWE not even bothering to pay Keith Lee's medical expenses, sadly, is probably only the 330th most sleazy act they've committed this year.

Jon Moxley wrote in his book that he accidentally swore after a title victory, didn't realize he had done it, and no one immediately brought it to his attention or acted like there was any issue at all. Then, two days later, he was called into Kevin Dunn's office and made aware of what happened. He apologized sincerely and profusely, only for Dunn to bury him and the apology behind his back. That is the kind of petty, sophomoric, "you've got heat, brother" bullshit WWE wrestlers have to deal with on a daily basis.

Should've gotten it in writing... Never truck racist snake oil salesman carnies. I'm pretty sure "attitude problems" for Keith Lee meant a big black man "getting uppity" with Michael Hayes or one of the other MAGA/QANON/Confederate Flag wavers over there.

AEW Rampage November 5, 2021
When I suggested this a few weeks ago, I was idiotically mocked by someone here for "not wanting Punk to be happy" or something along those lines. Yeah, this weird happy-go-lucky shit is definitely setting up something IMO.

WWE TV 11/1-11/7 Raw ended, you can wake up now
Izzy's dad is clearly a creep and fame-seeking Culkin stage dad. The sooner she gets away from him, the better.

In what galaxy is Nia a big enough star to get away with anything or even a big star at all? I definitely don't think this necessarily takes her name off the list of possibilities. Especially now that she has all but admitted to being a selfish fucking imbecile who willingly puts others at risk unvaccinated.

Could be Kross and/or Smith too - both are supposedly MAGA.

I hope he sues the shit out of them for firing him after he got sick. Probably won't go anywhere in court if it did happen, but a man can dream. Fuck WWE.

It's Jericho going back to the same well as the "dirty, disgusting, brutal, skanky, bottom feeding trash bag HO" line about Steph with similar verbiage about VanZant, because what worked 20 years ago must still work now - except it doesn't.

Maybe, but who knows. Someone better not tell them that Mox also misspelled the name in his book.

I understand Manda's raw reaction, even if I don't necessarily agree with it, but what's the beef with Jericho and Kalisto? There has to be more to it, because this is pettiness to the extreme IMO. Update: Response from Kalisto
