EXCUSE ME!?! Duck that.

I’m assuming it’s to work with Dom and just long enough WWE gets to use Eddie on TV and secure the rights to his name and likeness for a while longer. If we’re lucky it’ll just be some vault filming or something.

I guess if they aren’t stripping the titles they’ll just have Roxanne take the title and Dom.

I can’t believe people don’t like their state police wearing plain clothes, using unmarked cars, hiding their badges, showing up without judicial warrants, and just snatching people before sending them off to foreign prisons, what a bunch of wokesters. /s

It’s important to stand up to the fuckers, but equally as terrifying knowing this is likely just the beginning. We still have 1309 days to go, assuming they don’t go full coup the way so many think they will.

You lose every shot you don’t take, so good for them.

I don’t disagree with the opinion, but where do we go? If Firefox goes down the forks do too, Chrome/Chromium has a monopoly on almost all other browsers, we’re stuck between two turd sandwiches as far as I know.

The rumor was that’s why the title was put back on GUNTHER, so he and Goldberg could have the retirement match the weekend of Evolution on SNME.

The screwdriver and then push part is the only big thing that draws it into question for me, I’m somewhat hopeful you’re right.

TK should hit the settlement button and make some extra rules not to touch the fucking staff. I just hope they don’t pull the arbitration thing.

I don’t like how long it took to file the lawsuit, and don’t like it wasn’t reported, but after seeing the video, that was fucked up now knowing it wasn’t an extra, I assumed taking the screwdriver meant it was part of the show.

Hasn’t online always kind of had the IRS? Every 48 minutes (GTA day) I lose money for property upkeep, the mechanic and other stuff; sounds IRS like to me.

Now if this DLC could lower those miniscule daily charges that would be funny, to me.

You know, Jim Cornette is kind of a fucking blowhard, but sometimes this man is just right.

The Harris Brothers had some questionable taste in ring attire in the 00s including SS logos, they were part of Aerolux (something like that) who had a stake in TNA during their big money trouble era. Aerolux at the time they were part of TNA claimed they were just playing biker characters and weren’t Nazis but those logos even in the early 00s were frowned on.

AXS TV is a low carriage network, or it was when TNA’s parent company bought it and TNA ended up there. They had coverage in about 32 million households compared to 73 million for USA, TNT, TBS, etc in 2022-2023. They may be in more homes now, some cable companies used to not have it.

I guess Punk learned to love blood money covered dick… I hope Miz was waiting for him like SpongeBob when he realized Squidward liked krabby patties.

I’m somewhere between the two, I used to care about the tv product through the '90s and early '00s. Then when WWE became basically a monopoly I really enjoyed reading the backstage shit and looking at the business functions that lead to that product. I mean I’m not quite in that camp 1 but I enjoy business news and scandal some.

What we know of TNA over the years is that they are a miracle business. Almos nobody could have withstood their crazieness. Hell they were basically a ponzi schemed for a while there with Anthem, Billy, the Nazi Bros and others all believing they were getting the company when Dixie couldn’t pay them.

WWE on the other hand fell upwards in spite of themselves, their implosion, granted part of that is Viacom’s fault, coincided with the slow death of Cable so live programming became coveted by networks who just wanted fans to tune in no matter what. You can look at WWE’s past financials and see in real time as fans and ticket numbers (not sales, they raised prices) declined their revenue kept growing thanks to the TV contracts, had TV not declined the way it did, they would have been WCW’d or been on some obscure channel like Destination America.

I also respect AEW being a private company that doesn’t share that information. No matter how much I would enjoy reading some of it.

No amount of backstage business info really hurts my enjoyment of a product which is way more heavily weighted for my enjoyment, the story-lines do though. Triple H came out and righted WWE’s ship when Vince left, I’ve watched a lot more WWE up until probably Mania than I had for a long time, especially with AEW coming along… now WWE has shit the bed again and it’s as bad if not worse than Vince booking and I quit caring, that hurts my view of the company more than anything.

Overall, neither company is playing a tune I completely care for, but I’m glad they exist, wrestling has been so much better with the inclusion of a second major promotion, and TNA is decent enough even if they don’t have a real tv channel. I don’t know, this feels rambly, I’ll stop here.

Just wait until they start shoving it into the wrestlers gear too, it’s being rumored now. I imagine it’s going to be like when they had Ziggler dress as The Colonel for KFC, just in the new WWE he would always wrestle that way.

Ok… but these carnies really like to carny, so you can’t necessarily trust him. Although I lean towards trusting him based on info that’s come out and the way his kid was calling cap on Triple H’s comments about it being a work.

Michael Cole is fucking annoying here.

Ron Killings with the title once before retiring would be cool. Even if it’s a Kane-Austin style 1 night reign.

Also, I enjoyed Truth’s kid calling out HHH for saying it was a work, lol.

I feel bad for most of those caught up in the insanity that has been Trump’s border policies… But for TKO, oh well, sometimes you get the leopard you donated to and voted for.

Come on, it’s as plain as day it’s a picture of John Cena.

Dumbass, maybe don’t take the match on short notice, should have asked for next years Mania opening.

That said, if it’s just to retire and he’s not going out on his back, just have him come in and do the full WCW… Spear, Jackhammer, 1-2-3 on Tozawa.

(Sorry Tozawa, but you know your role.)

I wonder if they can trademark Mary Kay for wrestling purposes, that would be hilarious. Be Glamorous with Mary Kay.
