WWE doomed themselves when they picked money over historical ties when they started to only hold events at the Barclays Center in NYC.

WWE is going back to MSG though on TV live.This AAA deal was made before the WWE probably decided they didnt want to Lose MSG. My guess is the show theyre doing in Sept probably included a deal to go back to the way it was. WWE doesn't care about AAA plus there was probably little they could do anyway. But I dont think you'll see another US based promotion run MSG for a while

Emperor Smeat 04-03-2019 12:54 AM

Costs and not any influence or pressure from WWE would be the main reason if that situation were to happen.

Even WWE struggles to make good money from their MSG shows and outside of ROH and AEW, nobody else has the deep pockets to run one without a lot of help. AAA's pretty much taking a huge risk with their rumored MSG show since it has to be a huge success in order to kick start their rumored US expansion plans.

WWE doesnt care about AAA at all. And it sounds like it's Impact Wrestling thats going to be involved with AAA, not AEW anyway.

Michael Cole said that Rey Mysterio is a 2-time WWE Champion and first won it when he defeated Randy Orton and his "now his good buddy" Kurt Angle.

Rey Mysterio is a 1-time WWE Champion (and a 2-time World Heavyweight Champion) and his reign barely lasted the length of the Monday Night RAW episode. Using the "World Heavyweight Championship" and "WWE Championship" interchangeably is stupid.

It is stupid only because of how inconsistent they are about it. They will go out of their way to say someone never won a specific title or how many times exactly, but then, turn around and count combined championships, including stuff like throwaway tag reigns.

Then again, they do it elsewhere. A person can't have wrestled for years all over the world and still be a rookie.

WWE was just as upset AAA was going to run a show there as they were with ROH since they wanted nobody to run shows there.

Only difference was WWE viewed ROH as the bigger and more direct threat of the two which is why they went hard after ROH first. Also helped that AAA was being vague on if they could even run a show in MSG until very recently so less reason to worry about them at the time.

You do realize that the Young Bucks are the AAA Tag Team champions right now, right?

K, think I'm gonna have to officially tap out. The prices ain't going down. $200 gets you in the upper deck in the far back corner and I'm not convinced you'll be able to see jack.

If I was passionate about this card I might say fuck it and get a more expensive ticket but I just don't know if I can do that in good conscience for what has been such a poorly built show.

She allegedly has the tryout match between Tom Magee vs. Bret Hart.

SlickyTrickyDamon 04-03-2019 10:28 AM

She worked with Bret digitizing his tape library for a project that never went anywhere. She had a VHS mislabeled saying a match with Bret/Magee was from 1989 but it was a long sought after one from 1986. Magee was supposedly high on Vince's list of guys to be the man after Hogan.

She also posted a few days ago that for legal reasons she can't share the footage.

Droford 04-03-2019 01:47 PM

she should just keep taking pics of the tv every second

Droford 04-03-2019 01:54 PM

Convinced that Joe will come out at WM. Rey will be announced, come out with Alexa "Due to being injured on RAW by Baron Corbin, this match is now the first ever WM US OPEN Challenge". Kurt Angle will come out, everyone will get excited. Then John Cena's music hits.
Triple Threat match. book it. Angle doesn't have to do much (gets knocked out of the ring for extened times to cover up he can't go anymore) but Angle wins the US title to retire and then they can do a Tourney on SD for a new US Champion.

Because I'm a giant loser, I went through Tom Magee's wrestlingdata profile and only found the one Bret vs Magee match.

I think she's taking a break until it's time for SD to move to FOX in October.

That would seem about right considering her break is rumored to be a long one and WWE feels confident she'd be back before Survivor Series in November.

Probably won't get the long rumored WWE 4 Horsewomen vs. MMA 4 Horsewomen match since WWE is rumored to be breaking up the group in NXT once Baszler gets called up. Also doesn't help that Duke and Shafir have a long way to go for their development.

It made its rounds on the net several years back. Maybe 3-5 years ago. It was really solid for sure. There were some rough spots but it was by far better than anything I've seen of him otherwise.

I seem to recall there being multiple matches and one in particular that was really good. I think I've herd Bret hart say that.

Emperor Smeat 04-03-2019 11:22 PM

Since there is no Tipsters season this year, would anyone be interesting in playing in a Tipsters Eliminator season for the rest of this year?

Would start with WrestleMania 35 and last till the final WWE event of the year. Unlike regular Tipsters, winner isn't based on whoever has the highest score in the end but whoever scored the highest in the final event. After each event, a set number of people with the lowest scores get eliminated from the contest to trim down the field as the season goes on.

Also the ability to earn bonus points via a wildcard question related to the event itself and possible immunity for the next event for perfect scores. Scoring would be more simpler since pre-show matches wouldn't be counted and the amount of picks per match wouldn't be as in-depth (ex. no moves for finisher needs to be pick).

Been toying around with this idea for the past several weeks.
