Dumb stat I saw on Reddit:

As of today, the gap between today and the formation of the Nexus is longer than the gap between the Invasion angle and the formation of the Nexus.

Time flies.

Lol I don’t buy it. What use is the guy if he can’t do his dick move?

Rhea Ripley used a gay slur in her recent stream.

What top stars were out? Roman? He was out after Summer Slam and back before Mania. Styles, Rollins, Orton, Ambrose, Bryan were all regularly used right? Lesnar wasn't any less visible than usual. Plus they had Rousey for a year with no health issues, a breakout in Lynch and Charlotte prominently featured. Wtf is he talking about?

Thought Joey Ryan was already signed to AEW.

I thought he already debuted on Monday but they changed his name to Robert Roode.

One good thing is he cant do his stupid dick stuff anymore.



As a bi person i don't really give a damn!

Thing is, I find that as a sincere response and yes, whenpeople get worked up, sometimes they say dumb insensitive things. I wonder if people will just label her a homophobe anyways.

Wouldn't be surprised if WWE ends up laying the hammer on the NXT guys she's associated with since their streams sometimes tend to straddle the line or go below it for stuff WWE would be comfortable with. Same for them causing more controversy from the Donovan Dijak Twitter incident.

Apparently there was once a wrestler named "The Champion" in Mid South Wrestling based on some reading about WWE's Hidden Gems addition this week.

Same person who later became one half of the Moondogs tag team as Moondog Rex and as the first "Smash" for Demolition in WWF.

They will.

Did she say faggot? I love faggot. Such a fun word. Shame that it is a gay slur.

And later became Detroit Demolition in Continental and The Nightmare in Mid South. His name was Randy Colley . The Moondogs were badass. I've never heard of Randy wrestling as "The Champion" though

Cagematch.com had him listed by that name for MSW's Wrestlefest 1985 event which is today's Hidden Gem on the WWE Network.

It was him vs. Wahoo McDaniel for the MSW North American title at the show.

It looks like he did wrestle a bit as "The Champion". Lol what a weird moniker.

Wow!

Has to be. I watched the Andrade/Zelina Ride Along last night and he's got barely okay English. I can't imagine that Charlotte's Spanish is that good either, so...

Dean Malenko quits WWE.

It's all dependent on where you sit. But when I went to house shows at Little Caesars Arena in Detroit when WWE came there, the majority of the upper levels were closed off. It was a Saturday night and WWE was lucky if there was 2,000 people there.

It's like when NXT comes to Detroit. They go to Royal Oak and perform there. It's a smaller venue but the place is filled to the brim and there are no empty seats. WWE would be smart to start having house shows at smaller venues.

In terms of TV events, they need to stop having shows at these places where the crowds are dead. I understand that you have to hit a market for your shows, but there are sometimes where Detroit goes: Smackdown Live-House Show-House Show-Raw-House Show-House Show-RAW. There is no reason that a market like Detroit should have two house shows before they have a Live TV event. I'm sure this is prevalent in other cities as well.

Love me too baby

Jim Cornette's 2 part podcast on Montreal is amazing. The second part he does with Meltzer. It's captivating.

Today is Hug an Australian day

Recently read this somewhere and forgot this was actually a thing, but Dean Malenko ranked #1 for PWI's Top 500 back in 1997.

Was annoying how Meltzer kept trying to talk over Cornette.

Yeah, I hear that fact every couple of years and go "Wow" then immediately forget it again.

I love Dean Malenko but he just had absolutely no charisma at all. I mean it's the reason masks were invented. He should have had a visual gimmick because I can't remember much besides how smooth he was in the ring.

you remember stinko malenko that feud with jerico is what made him in wcw

Thought Malenko showed a surprising amount of charisma when he was doing the "ladies man" gimmick and teaming with Perry Saturn

Listening to this right now. Love hearing Cornette and Meltzer talk wrestling.

The Miz was #1 in 2011, from memory.

He got a massive pop when he revealed to be underneath the Ciclope gimmick. One of my favorite crowd reactions.

Rumored list of participants for this year's Money in the Bank ladder match via a supposed accidental leak from a recent local ad for the event.

Not that surprising. Very glad that there's no Baron Corbin in there.
