Quality face off segment. Feel like WWE haven't had really good ones since Cena left.

Are you not into nose porn orrrrr??????????

Not during the pandemic.

I'm all about getting into the personal space of your opponent.

Seems Cody confirmed he had negotiations with WWE over the "Cody Rhodes" trademark which led to him getting the "Cody Rhodes" name back and in return dropped his filings for two WCW/Dusty-related concepts.

Him only wanting the name back to use for non-wrestling projects seems to have been the key reason why the deal ended up being made.

Quote:

AEW TNT Champion Cody spent nearly an hour with the media Thursday, answering questions about whether a trilogy match with Nick Aldis will ever happen, why he will stick to the stipulation of never challenging for the AEW World title, Dark, and why the TNT title means so much to him ...

While he is happy to get the Rhodes last name back, he won't use it in the wrestling space. His real goal was to use it for third party ventures (ex. Go Big Show, acting gigs). He didn't provide any details on the negotiations but said it was a "no hard feelings" type arrangement.

That'd be a cool framed poster.

WWE currently hyping up a retirement ceremony for the Undertaker at Survivor Series later this month.

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">WWE just sent out a press release saying Undertaker’s “Final Farewell” will take place at Survivor Series on November 22. <a href="https://t.co/Wl85VfPLV6">pic.twitter.com/Wl85VfPLV6</a></p>— Ryan Satin (@ryansatin) <a href="https://twitter.com/ryansatin/status/1324744431325507585?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">November 6, 2020</a></blockquote> <script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

If I had to bet, I'd give Taker's retirement lasting till whenever the next Saudi show happens and a big bag of cash gets sent to his house to make him pull a HBK.

Until Cena interrupts and challenges him to a match at Wrestlemania

Nope. They're gonna have him put over Baron Corbin on his way out.

Anyone got a reliable s t r e a m site for Full Gear? I have a site for mma but I don't think it will carry AEW.

God bless Android boxes

I know Taker was talking up his AJ match as being how he wants to end his career but I kinda feel like there’s no way he doesn’t wanna finish with a match in front of a crowd.

That said there’s nothing stopping him from walking out during any given WM and Tombstoning someone. Same effect.

Apparently the reason why Mercedes Martinez was quickly pulled from Retribution was due to her requesting it prior to the group signing new main roster contracts as part of their call-up.

Almost immediately afterward, Martinez returned to NXT. No explanation was given on television, but now new details about it have come to light. Fightful Select (subscription required) is reporting that the word among talent is that Martinez asked to no longer be part of the group. This request was made prior to the group signing new contracts.

Her new name was set to be Retaliation so there was definitely some thought put into her inclusion. This departure has left Mia Yim (or Reckoning) as the lone female member of the group. This has caused her to not be able to wrestle since her arrival on the main roster. The report also stated that there are currently no plans to add another female member to Retribution.

Mercedes Martinez has not wrestled in NXT since September 8 where she lost to Rhea Ripley in a steel cage match. It remains to be seen what she will do in NXT going forward.

I want Brandi Lauren to fart air into my lungs. I also need her to shit down my throat.

They should just combine the two.

Plenty of booking sims out there already.

Didn't one of the SvR games have a GM mode? Surely they could improve on that mechanic after so many years, right?

Apparently early into the coronavirus pandemic, some WWE talent were getting their coronavirus testing done by AEW instead of the company they actually worked for.

This was before WWE had their first big outbreak in June and started to actually get serious with the coronavirus. Before that, Triple H made several BS claims about the stuff they were doing to combat the coronavirus was more effective than what other companies were doing.

The site is reporting that WWE talent who visited for the pay-per-view event back in May were tested for the virus, as was everyone at the building. Some reportedly revealed that this was their first COVID test:

Quote:

WWE came under heavy fire of for their lack of COVID-19 testing in the initial stages, and we’ve heard a story related to that coming out of the AEW PPV this weekend. When discussing AEW COVID protocols with several AEW names, several told us that WWE stars visiting All Elite Wrestling for Double or Nothing in May actually claimed they got their first coronavirus tests from AEW the weekend of Double or Nothing, because otherwise they weren’t permitted at the events or functions. Even after there were positive tests within WWE months prior, the company didn’t do testing along the way until Mid-June.

WWE came under fire for not testing for COVID for several months. Until mid-June, WWE were reportedly only doing temperature checks and having talent fill in questionnaires as opposed to actually testing for the disease.

Lol I have that show in my collection. It happened during an 1984 T.V Taping for Wrestling at the Chase between Jesse and that goof Ivan Putski.

According to MLW, them returning on Wednesdays for their weekly tv series wasn't their decision and instead was made by their tv network partners.

They originally wanted to be on Thursdays as part of their The Restart plans but the networks wanted Wednesdays instead due to it being an established night for tv wrestling.

Only bright side is they won't be going head-to-head against NXT and AEW since their show ends before the start of NXT and Dynamite.

Probably just back to the PC again unless a venue in Florida allows them to run with a paid (albeit reduced) audience.

Wouldn't surprise me. Raw and SD take precedence.
