When Sonjay cut his hair he went on to vanish and/or just be angry in his matches. He might be on GFW's roster, but idk what that entails other than the house shows they put on at minor league baseball fields.

Also, I remember thinking that when he had hair he kind of looked like a brown Christian Cage, so I liked him for that too........

Sonjay Dutt and Jay Lethal deserve WWE runs

There should be a wrestling style Quantum Leap show where a wrestler goes back in time to fix all the wrongs throughout the history of wrestling.

Each time hoping that his next leap will be the leap home, of course.

Tommy Dreamer booked his show in the same building time as a bunch of 8 year olds having a roller skate party. There's absolutely no way this can end well

I also walked in behind a short dude with a beard who is apparently a wrestler cause this group of fat guts at the door hounded him for autographs. Will find out who it was cause I don't know couldn't get a pic fast enough lol

Mikey of the Spirit Squad in front of me. Guy asked him if he's ever going back to wwe "never"

Not the guy with the beard though

I brought my 360 cam so hopefully ill get something with that

Its weird seeing Matt Hardy here with his Tag Belt..

Kenny and Mikey have been standing at a table and its almost as sad as the Virgil pic not one person has come up to them.

I didn't realize I was right next to Christy Hemme

GFW and Impact have now merged and Sonjay was on a live edition Impact last night.

TIL Matt Striker still wrestles & Little Guido hasn't aged a bit..

Carrier Dome plays wrestling music all the time at half time.

Bearded guy was Bobby Fish

Fucking nice.

seems off center

WWE backtracked on letting Matt Hardy wrestle but he showed up. Main event turned into Bully/Tommy vs The tucking Spirit Squad. Dreamer seemed legit pissed off afterwards. I'm guessing the Hardys won't wrestle tomorrow night in Philly.

Match of the night was easily Bobby Fish vs Sami Callahan.

I'm sitting in my car now waiting for Bobby Fish like a stalker lol since he's parked next to me

Cruiser title got a tweak made to it based on a recent house show event. Instead of the strap being purple, its now black.

Could just be something the WWE wanted for a better look or a possible sign of WWE ditching the purple branding for 205 Live and the Cruiser division in the near future.

Looks alot better I think. Would like to see a better photo, hope this leads to changing the ropes on Raw.

I want a body like Neville. Not his ears though.

So not sure if this is a new thing this year or not, but I saw this in town today. Apparently WWE now give the Raw after Wrestlemania it's own DVD release!!!

http://target.scene7.com/is/image/Ta...=520&fmt=pjpeg

Six hours long according to the back of the box, cannot fathom what extras they would have to make an episode of Raw worthy of a it's own six-hour DVD.

Seemed weird seeing this though, and how the Raw after Wrestlemania is as much an annual event now as Wrestlemania itself.

Styles, Crews, and Miz & Maryese weren't even on the Raw after Wrestlemania. Sure thats real because I don't see Roman Reigns anywhere? Miz also has the IC titke so it probably last year's Raw after Wrestlemania.

It's a documentary that was on the Network recently. Just talks about the history and so forth. A longer version of that plus memorable matches/moments and shit...

Yes. I saw it in Asda.

I was equally surprised to see the people on the cover, especially Apollo Crews.

https://www.wwedvd.co.uk/wrestlemani...21685d1e9fcc5f

Having seen this is more detail though, yeah DaveWadding is right it's a compilation DVD. Thought it seemed a bit weird them releasing an episode of Raw on DVD a couple of weeks after it aired.

Still can't get over Crews on the cover though.

So it is this year's? I guess they are making up for putting Styles in the back on the Royal Rumble poster by putting him front and center for a DVD of a show he wasn't even on.

It's highlights from all the past Raw's after Wrestlemania. Best matches/moments etc. Not worth buying in my opinion, but just thought it was interesting how R.A.W. has become as big a part of the calendar as Wrestlemania, Royal Rumble, Summerslam and Survivor Series.

Ok make more sense now, Crews is weird but he did make his debut on a Raw after Mania.

Lucha Dragons going for a dumpster ride calling it now.

Watching WWE Greatest Rivalries: Bret vs. Shawn Blu-ray. Looking forward to great matches that aren't on the Network.

Oh shit when are these from? Stonehenge is about 20 minutes away from me. Crazy to think Nakamura would be here in the heart of Wiltshire.

Don't get into looking at how old WWE people are..... it's a trap.....

#BringBackMooney

Tajiri just left the WWE due to medical reasons.

Damn........ wanted to see him kick more people's head in.......

Observer speculating the WWE might legit be considering giving Jinder the WWE title as part of a bigger focus for the India market.

Like with the UK, WWE is supposedly worried about more wrestling companies making a strong push into India and/or eating their market share. Also like with most things, its something they recently made decisions for and not something that's been planned for a while.

Psh. This Jinder push has CLEARLY been planned for 6 months now.

#MeltzerSheep

Obviously Roman puts Braun in the dumpster and pushes it off the stage.

nah Roman gonna be hiding in the garbage where he belongs.

That meme will be gold, re: trash roman

I remember reading that SmackDown used to be re-edited in India to make The Great Khali look like the most all-conquering wrestler since Hulk Hogan.

Hope they do the same with Jinder.

How did they pull that off with classics like Khali vs 3MB?

<script async src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

That is a racist statement.

well, we do.

Nope.

And I think it is a weird decision to push Jinder just for the sole purpose of expanding business in India. He's not even close to how popular Khali was in his prime.

Shaq recently blamed the WWE management for why his match at Mania never happened.

Link to the podcast: www.podcastone.com/the-big-podcast-with-shaq

Adam Rose SHOOTING on Braun:

WWE currently rumored to be interested in signing another big name announcer to a deal.

Over/Under on 4 months before Vince decides he hates the guy and/or his style once a deal is made.

Hopefully he doesn't cry and run away like that bitch Mauro

Huh, can't believe strowman is hulk hogan's height.

Damn, never seen this video before where Steph compares her father's steroid trial to 9/11

Good thing he was working like crazy to improve his physique before the push. Good thing he was put in the middle of a SportsCenter moment at Mania with Gronk. I'm sure it was all a coincidence though. I'm sure someone in WWE accidentally googled top countries by population three weeks ago and realized India was near the top.

I'm sure Meltzer needs a way to justify why he wasn't reporting this was coming 4-6 months ago.

Holy fuck, I didn't think this idiot would even actually try to claim WWE had been planning this Jinder Mahal push for 6 months. Jesus... lol

I mean... he makes a point...

Having him be an undeniable jobber for 6 months was a genius way to build him up, huh?

Is it really that much different from how they push everyone else?

Because he got in better shape and was involved in an angle with a celebrity at WrestleMania THREE WEEKS AGO, CLEARLY they've been planning this push for 4-6 months.

He didn't just get in shape 3 weeks ago. Honestly I thought this push might be a thank you for signing the contract to come back when the brand split started when not many people signed the deal to come back

Not really. Because they don't plan shit out. This is just a glaring example that CyNick has actually somehow found a way to try to bullshit out of.

So it's just that. That he got in shape. That's the evidence that they planned his push months ago...

Or maybe he's right

Well they thought enough to get the person Orton was in a program with (Bray) and switched him to another brand. Then Jinder was moved to SD!. That had to have been planned. Then Jinder won the #1 Contender match. That was more than likely planned as well...

Right. Because he got in shape. PROOF.

... Stuff that happened within the past couple weeks...

Yeah but the trades have been planned for a while, as well as what happens after said trades...

Vince or Triple H probably brought Jinder into the office 2 or 3 months ago and said "listen kid, you gotta get in phenomenal shape because we have something for you soon..."

... How do you know this?

You're really starting to sound like CyNick. lol

Come on. Not only is this a tv product, but it's a traveling job, they're not gonna just keep the talent that has to travel from city to city uninformed on where they need to travel to and what brand they're traveling to be on.

If Vince or Triple H decided months ago that they're planning a push for Mahal and they built it up by having him basically be Barry Horrowitz, that would probably be more retarded than just randomly deciding he's going from jobber to main eventer overnight. I'm actually giving them credit by conceding that the latter is clearly what happened.

According to Alexa Bliss, that actually happened at least for her. Didn't find out till the day of the Shakeup show she was heading to RAW.

Then again to be a bit fair, WWE had all of Smackdown's roster on that show in order for no leaks to happen.

Except there have been plenty of people who have said that's exactly what's happened when they've switched brands.

Remember when Kaitlyn said she quit because she showed up to tv and was told they had nothing for her?

Months and months of planning. Bray just dropped the belt to Orton, got put into a rematch, and then suddenly moved to Raw in the middle of a feud. Doesn't seem like something that was planned for months.

I'd tell my talent to tell the outside world we didn't know what was going on either

Jim Ross said he almost quit the night he and Michael Cole switched brands because he wasn't told until that night. Jim Ross was not working for WWE at the time.

Mr. Kennedy has said most of the people traded had no idea until that day. Also was not working for WWE at the time.
