Jim Crockett Jr. passed away today according to Bryan Alvarez.

I saw it mentioned on twitter that Peacock is not available on Amazon Fire yet, that seems weird and also potentially problematic for users of Fire if it isn't before the Network switches over.

yep you got to get a roku stick to watch it on your tv atleast those things are only 30 bucks, or you can watch on your computer.

Jim Crockett only being 76 shocks me.

Are there any current wrestlers who have SUMO gimmicks

Last time i watched TNA in like 2016 i remember some dude that seemed like a Yokozuna knockoff.

Internet losers but shouldn't expect nothing less.

According to the Observer, Jim Crockett Jr's cause of death was due to COVID-19.

Dave Meltzer noted that Crockett had been hospitalized late last month because he already had prior health issues and contracted COVID. From there, he noted, Crockett only got “worse and worse.” He had kidney issues prior to this and was on dialysis, but his kidneys and other organs began to shut down. Crockett “knew it was a matter of time” and decided to get removed from dialysis.

According to PWI, WWE is currently considering the idea of doing a two night NXT TakeOver for Mania weekend this year.

Right now its only scheduled as a one night show.

FEED ME MORE CONTENT!!!

Why even pack up the stage and equipment? Just film stuff 24/7. It would be horrible but the hours of content! KA-CHING!

Didn't WCW one do a "WCW All Night" thing? Dunno how many hours it was, but I clearly remember it.... gonna google it now, better not be a Mandela Effect....

Ah, ok... yes they did, but it was only 6 hours from midnight to 6am, and was just playing classic matches, nothing live.

The hosts were all live I believe.

When Paul Wight said he had the scoop as he was getting interviewed by Schiavone, I was positive he was gonna tell people to call the WCW Hotline

Colin West, owner of Synergy Wrestling, has been outed as a child predator when somebody got a hold of his real name and found out he’s been convicted previously for sexual assault on three boys between the ages of 6-10 and a separate instance with a 12 year old.

What in the fucking fuck.

WWE's ThunderDome rumored to potentially be moving to a new location of the University of South Florida's Yuengling Center in Tampa once baseball season starts.

Gosh I hope that's the case. I'd hate to lose access to all of the archive stuff they put on there already. With my crazy work schedule these days, I just haven't had the time to watch a lot of that older material.

Peacock’s UI is hot garbage so I do hope they keep the Network layout the way it was

Damn didn't realize (or forgot) that "Golga" of "The Oddities" was Earthquake

I wonder how much money WWE is losing without ticket sales vs. how much they're saving by not having to travel multiple times a week...

Besides the lawsuit from Kelly Klein, Ring of Honor is also currently dealing with a seperate lawsuit filed by Joey Mercury.

Wrestle Zone reported that Birch has filed a suit in the state of Maryland against ROH and Sinclair, claiming that he was misclassified as a independent contractor rather than an employee. Birch was part of Ring of Honor as a producer from May of 2018 through October of 2019

Birch claims that he was forced to resign due to the company’s lack of concern regarding talent, and working without a "commensurate increase" in pay. Birch's suit also claims that Sinclair and ROH failed to respond to Birch’s complaints regarding what he viewed as an unsafe working environment. He also claimed that he was paid substantially less than others who were performing the same work, and is also seeking royalties.

Jim Cornette's Cameo debuted at 12pm today and was sold out by 12:05. So much for being irrelevant.

This will be a problem. Usually like to watch the PPVs while playing video games. It being on Amazon would be better. Guess I'll just have to switch to playing games on a smaller screen until Peacock gets on FireTV.

According to Jim Ross, the infamous WWF Plane Ride from Hell incident from 2002 will be one of the topics for Season 3 of Dark Side of the Ring.

John Pollock of POSTWrestling reported today that when Jim Ross was interviewed for third season of ViceTV's Dark Side of Ring, one of the topics of conversation was the infamous WWE Plane Ride from Hell that resulted in several WWE releases.

On May 5, 2002 a number of WWE wrestlers and management members flew from Great Britain to the United States following the end of a European tour, which concluded with a British PPV event. On the now-infamous flight, there were a number of incidents involving WWE management and wrestlers that were later attributed to the heavy drinking on the flight, partially because the flight was delayed for an hour before takeoff.

Among the incidents included the late Curt Hennig goading Brock Lesnar into a mid-flight wrestling match after ribbing him about who was a better amateur wrestler. Hennig and Lesnar scuffled in the aisle of the plane with Lesnar taking down Hennig and Hennig being unable to return the favor. Eventually, several others on the flight, including Dave Finley, Triple H, and Paul Heyman had to separate the pair. WWE announced that Hennig was released from the company shortly thereafter, There was no heat on Lesnar at the time as the blame was placed on Hennig's end.

The wrestling was tame compared to some of the other antics on the flight. Dustin Runnels was allegedly serenading his ex-wife Terri Runnels until being told to stop by WWE Vice President of Talent Relations Jim Ross. Dustin Runnels was in the doghouse for a long time and was publicly dropped by WWE in late 2003 with a WWE.com statement announcing his contract would not be renewed when it expired in January 2004.

Road Agent Michael Hayes was also involved in an physical incident with Bradshaw after heavily drinking, allegedly punching him. Hayes' actions led to someone (later believed to be Sean Waltman) cutting off his mullet while he was sleeping. There were also stories of Ric Flair disrobing, with the possible exception of his ring robe, and parading around on the flight.

Anyone who says this about Cornette is a fucking idiot just repeating indy wrestler groupthink. Such a weird way to try and dismiss the guy so you don’t have to address his criticisms.

That’s an easy $7 grand he just made in 5 minutes.

5 minutes plus however long it takes to cut 64 promos

Reading the article on the WWE network US switch to Peacock is pretty brutal. They aren't going to have the full library up til August, no search feature & match markers at launch. But you can watch Miz and Mrs and Total Divas. They are offering the first four months for $9.99.
