Daniel Bryan is the master of renegotiation tactics, which is why he's started mentioning dream opponents outside of WWE recently. Done it before, will do it again. Hope he enjoys his increase in salary.
|
would still be very cool to see him and Ray Fenix. Tag team or opponents, either would be great.
|
Do I think Bryan will actually leave WWE? No.
Will that stop me from daydreaming about The Final Countdown hitting at the end of Double or Nothing? Also no. |
According to the Wrestling Observer Radio and Fightful Select, these are the locations currently being considered for this year's SummerSlam event:
|
I hope they don't pick MSG so I don't feel pressured to go.

According to Fightful, Zelina Vega is currently in the process of potentially returning to WWE.

Well, she either cut a deal with Vince to keep making extra cash on the side. Or she's getting more money altogether.
|
Lol of course.

Current rumor going around the net regarding Bray's recent absence from RAW hints at him currently suffering a bad bout of depression.
Supposedly the loss of his close friend Brodie Lee is still hitting him very hard all these months later. |
I'm sure the direction they took his character the past year or so isn't helping either.
|
WWE currently planning to resume touring in mid-July according to the Mat Men podcast and Wrestling Observer.

According to WrestlingInc, Sonya Deville's stalker was recently ruled incompetent to stand trial for the stalking and kidnapping charges against him related to last year's kidnapping attempt incident at Sonya's home.

Seems Zelina Vega being open to a potential return to WWE might be due to the company recently weakening the ban put in place for their talents social media accounts and outside third party deals.

guess vince did not make as much money as he thought he would
|
Yeup and both him and WWE President Nick Khan completely overestimated WWE's talents level of interest to want to continue shilling products as if nothing had happened since they no longer were getting paid extra for it or were losing out on huge sums of money.
Like Asuka started to blur out products she uses or buys on her Youtube channel just to get around WWE's ban so it wouldn't affect her pay in any way. |
I think we can all agree that was such a bad decision.
WWE might, and BIG might, but they might have gotten away with 10% of whatever extra income the wrestlers make being applied to their downside guarantees. If a wrestler has has a million downside guarantee, they can use their side ventures to make as much as possible, but WWE can count up to 100k off their downside. It's still a real shitty practice, but a talent would rather lose 10% of their downside and still get to earn an extra day 500k on the side. 1.4 million is better than 1 million. |

WWE going back to crowds earlier than planned is said to be a Fox request/mandate.
Not really surprised though given that the other sports in Fox's portfolio are back to having fans so it'll just "look better" if they have a live audience too. |

Seems WWE wrestlers learned of their return to crowds via Twitter. |
Ruthless passive aggression.

WWE Digital is now reporting to Kevin Dunn so I'm sure that will go down the shitter. |
The digital landscape is often underappreciated. Often it isn't until something is seriously broken that those types of roles are given thanks.
Fuck Kevin Dunn, tbh. |

On hockey games only!
A cut for every punch |
We used to cover the local rassling fed and the producer/director would sometimes do that....

Why they didn't just go with him instead of Virk to begin with is a head scratcher since unlike Virk, he has been getting actual training by WWE for that new job.

SummerSlam to take place on Saturday August 21 at a yet-to-be-announced NFL stadium.
|
Both Miami and Tampa have home preseason games on August 21 so SummerSlam won't be there. Jacksonville's stadium would be unavailable for obvious reasons. Dallas, LA, New Orleans, Phoenix, Chicago, and NY/NJ are booked as well.
Pats Stadium would be available and SummerSlam was meant to be in Boston last year, but Foxboro is an hour outside of Boston. |
SummerSlam is at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas and Cena will be a big part of it.
|
I've already forgotten Vegas has an NFL stadium.
|
There's a nightclub in one of the endzones, isn't there?
