There’s no confusion at all. WWE cut salaries because AEW is not perceived as a threat. Internet marks have to make it a story about incompetence and malevolence. Sometimes, get this — the reporters are the incompetent ones.

Was it the incompetence of reporters that made Malakai Black debut earlier than expected?

Pffft, of course it was. Aleister Black was never going to do anything on the roster. He was fat to be trimmed.



Some internet nerds posted the story of his "contractual oversight" but WWE knew what they were doing. Jesus fuck Noidator.

According to Fightful's Sean Ross Sapp, the upcoming new era of NXT will be something similar to a lite version of RAW based on those he's spoken to within WWE.

In terms of NXT talent being aware of the actual plans for NXT's revamp as of this week, many were still being kept in the dark.

Only real bright point was many NXT talent who have seen the newly redesigned Capital Wrestling Center praised the improvements made but also mentioned its more like a scaled down version of WWE's main roster sets in terms of appearance.

Also just like with everyone else, NXT talent were unaware of Triple H's health situation until the news was made public.

I'm not optimistic it will happen but they need to go back to 1 hour. 2 hours of the current quality stuff they put out, I can't justify watching.

Also reported is that NXT will be going to 3 hours weekly starting in 2022.

lol classic NXT 90's porn names

If it was a porn name it would be Gunner Hardlad

According to this week's Observer Newsletter, another reason for FOX recently being upset with WWE over CM Punk signing with AEW was due to WWE turning down FOX's offer to help cover the costs of any new deal with Punk.

WWE claimed Punk was asking for too much money while FOX said that wouldn't be an issue since they'd give WWE some more money to help secure the deal. After rejecting FOX's help, WWE then said there were other reasons why they didn't want him which led to FOX being upset in the end.

CM Punk wouldn’t have made a difference to the WWE’s bottom-line. WWE knows that and FOX knows that. This is a made up “WWE bad” story designed to smear one side while making the others out to be angels. Stop posting fake news without thinking about it critically. Fucking hell, yanks are stupid.

Noid adding some xenophobia to the story of his rapid mental descent. Nice.

What I get from that story is that WWE was CM Punk's #1 choice, but they didn't meet his money demands so he went to his backup choice.

*stirring the pot*

What is the Guinness record for longest temper tantrum? Noid has gotta be close.

Anyone who was impressed by the pop CM Punk received on his AEW debut has never seen a Val Venis entrance during the attitude era. Motherfucker outpoped CM Punk every single night. Fucking hell, yanks are stupid.

Remember the pop when Taka Michinoku won the WWF Light Heavyeight Championship? Made the Road Warriors blush.

Vince turning down money? That's a new one.

He wasn’t turning down money for him.

Even if fox did foot some of the bill, I can’t see Punk back in WWE. Nothing about what drove him away has changed and you could argue it’s worse.

indie tag team has over 1 million followers on tiktok but is not signed anywhere...odd

https://www.tiktok.com/@vorostwins

Heard that Braun's new name might be "Titan"..... there is only one Titan that should be signed somewhere..... his first name is Paul....

would be 'shocking' if his name in impact was David Bigman in my opinion

NFL first game of season did 26 million viewers. RAW going to feel that sting on Mondays.

Good grief

For the love of baby Jesus :nono:

Think I'm gonna watch SummerSlam 96. I've never seen it before. There's quite a few SummerSlam's that I haven't seen.

I've seen the Boiler room brawl and the Main Event. The undercard looks not bad. We will see.

I credit that Boiler Room Brawl with really hooking me on rassling.... watched as a kid off and but not serious...

But then I saw that match and Mankind, and Paul Bearer turning on Undertaker and I was just like "wow, who is this crazy masked dude and he even got Paul Bearer to turn against Undertaker?!"

From then on I was watching wrestling seriously until a couple years back when I stopped....

I remember watching on some Undertaker tape I rented from the video store and thinking it was the coolest thing ever.



I'm about an hour into the show and I'm regretting my decision. That fucking 4 way tag match. And I really like the New Rockers and thought the Smoking Gunns were fun.

On his review of Raw Cornett called Nia Jax a refrigerator with a cape and i cannot unsee this visual

A fight for the right to the name. Our boy Paul knocks out Mr. Sherr (and the broadcast) with THE SHOW ENDER!!!

If he wasn't involved with this EC3 "narrative" business, I'd suggest he have a manager by the name of President Tack Junney!

rumors circling Big E might cash in tonight to counter the NFL

not rumored now...

That's incredibly stupid. You're not going to pull viewers in on the first week of football. It's going to be a big fat L no matter what they do. They should wait a week or two.

Imagine thinking that anyone in wrestling right now would pull people away from the first Monday night football of the season.
