Dude's of Pakistani heritage and I am rooting for him. Miracles.

Feel really bad for Jordan, the hard work he put in with those shitty tag teams in NXT for ages. Then breaking through with Gable and getting called up to the main roster , then being involved with a big storyline. Really sucks and I hope his recovery goes well .

Seth/Ronda vs. HHH/Steph would actually be really awesome. Braun should be in the Battle Royal.

This year's WWE Network tournament is currently rumored to be a Latin American tournament.

Tapings rumored to be getting held this August in Chile although unlike with the other Network tournaments, no plans at the moment to include a new title belt nor NXT deals.

There will be at least ten masked wrestlers on 205 Live after this.

The WWF Coliseum video collection is finally on the Network.

Watching Invasion ‘92 right now. Ric Flair vs Bret Hart for the IC belt :y:

Great match up until the countout finish :n:

Shawn Micheals vs WWF Champion Ric Flair next

Rocker Shawn *

Flair making Shawn look like a million bucks here

Another shitty finish :n:

Beverly Bros vs LOD next

I always pay by month for F4Weekly/WON. Every month when it runs out I go and listen to Wade's most recent podcast, today a review on last nights Raw. This guy, his community, they are fucking marks. Like wow, loserville called and needs their chamber of commerce back.

They should hold the tournament in Rio De Janeiro

Why do you pay?

Goddammit. I was going to say that :lol:

I think WWE need to be concerned about the speed and frequency their guys are working. Nowadays guys are doing suicide dives nightly and they don't even get a pop.

Tell a story, write a hot angle. Sometimes one punch means a lot more than a 450 to the outside.

Get back to story writing and you wont need to have guys killing themselves every night just to try and get some sort of reaction. Paige and Jordon news should make those in power think. Doubtful though.

I knew the Dudleys have been running their Team 3D Academy in Florida for quite a while. Bubba, D-Von, Tommy Dreamer, Billy Gunn, and Velvet Sky as trainers.

What I didn't know is that a year ago they opened a second school in Danbury, CT. Aka my hometown. And it's literally right across the street from my office.

That was unexpected.

For the podcasts

Oh maybe I read that wrong is Wade not a part of F4W?

Very hopeful they do Roman vs. Brock at Mania. They had a physical classic at WM 31, while Reigns' match with Triple H at Mania 32 was a snooze fest. No interest in Roman/Ronda vs. HHH/Steph.

Or Seth vs. Miz vs. Balor either. Throw em in a ladder match with some more participants and sure it's fine, not just those three though.

I remember that Tommaso Ciampa segment so well. I don't think I remember it being him, but maybe I just didn't care at the time. I haven't really cared about Ciampa's indy work, since he didn't really fall into the bubble of the true darlings, until NXT.

Seems WWE went with another option for Jordan's current neck issues. Instead of doing major surgery and him being out for a long time, they went with minor surgery and doing a "wait and see" approach for his neck.

Seems like they should do whatever is better for his long term health and not just try to patch him together enough to get him back as fast as possible......

One day in the future wrestlers won't need to do high risk moves that cause injuries. Wrestling will be performed by large robots. And it will be Jason Jordan's duty to build and maintain those robots.

Not even video games stand a chance against Asuka's soul erasing powers.

Buddy Murphy has cut 20 pounds to get himself down to 205.

I like to imagine he's rapidly trying to get called up before BRAUNNNNNNN steals his girl.

I can't stop laughing.

I think its funny Nia Jax beat up a 17 year girl that's still in high school Monday night. When did WWE start doing that

Well they used to let a 16 year old Jeff Hardy get destroyed on tapings back in the day.

Rooms available, can't even sell out a hotel.

Kami am honestly surprised there isn't a meme that says "you" and "who your girl tells you not to worry about" starring Buddy, Alexa, and Strowman.

Who does everyone here see winning the cruiserweight title tournament?

That's pretty fucked up.

It is. If he got pulled over he could've been in deep shit for Budget not inspecting the car after the previous person turned it in.

But at least there was no stopping him.

Yeah, if he had been pulled over and the cops discovered it by surprise and Shelton didn't know it was there...fucked shit could have happened.

Hideo probably.

Probably not Hideo.

I'm gonna say Cedric Alexander.

Johnny Gargano, just to typecast him forever.

Probably Dash Wilder or Scott Dawson

They could be if the WWE didn't shoot with the division for some reason.

Roderick Strong seems like the early favorite, but I can see him being the runner-up.

Listening to Tony Schiavonne MST3K old WCW PPVs via the What Happened When podcast is a fucking delight.

Itami, while barely being able to speak any english , has more personality and charisma than Roddy.

A board with a nail in it has more personality and charisma than Roderick Strong.

(Hyperbole)

Very excited to watch the new episode of 205 Live tonight. I've heard nothing but nice things.

Am I the only one who doesn't even like Strong in the ring? Like, I don't hate him, but he's so...indy. Him wrestling is like Dolph Ziggler cutting a promo -- so labored and deliberate to the point where you can see all the strings.

Turned on NXT for first time in a while

Mauro says "en fuego" pretty much right away and almost makes me want to turn it off

Mauro is horrendous

I haven't listened to much Mauro in WWE, but he almost ruined the Mayweather-McGregor fight with his horrible announcing. It's like he didn't know what boxing was all about and kept trying to claim Mayweather was cheating when he was doing smart boxing. Plus I can't forget the hissy fit he threw when JBL picked on him.

Yeah but you don't like most things that are good so this is no surprise. You have terrible taste is all.

If you get accused of terrible taste by a terrible waste of space, does it automatically become a compliment?

Lot's of HEAT on THE BOARD

:lol: WWE's grand plan for Ronda Rousey is to use her mainly to make Steph into a bigger mainstream star.

WWE wants something in the Austin-Vince tier for Steph's mainstream stardom.

A more positive note.

Makes sense with Brash rejecting offers from WWE last year and accepting this year citing the "changing landscape in wrestling".

I’ve really soured in Mauro.

His opening line was “Man’s not hot but the people here are en fuego”. He managed to tie together a shoe-horned pop culture reference and some needless Spanish.

Give me Mauro over any of the main roster mannequins.

I am neither shocked nor surprised.

According to the Observer, Impact Wrestling is running out of money again and have been late paying workers. Unlike previous times, the locker room is a lot more pissed off since its directly affecting their pay on the indies. They are giving up guaranteed and on-time pay checks since Impact is likely using that indies money for their own financial problems.

Hmmm someone looks familiar on this card.

Who's even left in that company

Very little in terms of star power and only going to get worse in upcoming months once the next wave of layoffs occur. For now, think its Eddie Edwards and John Morrison as big stars left outside of the Knockouts division.

Isn't Alberto still there?

Yeah. Completely forgot about him although don't think his current deal was for the long term and he's been open recently about wanting to go back to the WWE.

Edwards has been open about wanting to stay in Impact when his current deal expires though.

Probably for the best that he does. If they don't have any real stars left, more money to throw at him. And he sure as hell doesn't have a bright future if he goes to WWE.

Almost 33 years ago the John Stossel 20/20 piece aired where Dr.D David Schultz slapped the piss out of Stossel. Here's the full segment.

It's a must watch

Fuckin nice.

Rollermacka workin with super mex.

Fuck! I empathize with her. She's so young. Imagine the most private of our moments being available for the world to so. We have all done stupid things. It breaks my heart.

nobody cares, Dave.

Are you sure about that, DDN?

Dastardly Dick Newstead

When is the next time you think we will see the "Beer Bath" clip on Monday night raw?

I put my money on less than one year from now.

I mean sure, of course sex videos should never leak. I just don't care about how empathetic and virtuous you are. @GuruDave ;)

WWE will strike some deal with a drink company, and Braun will spray some replica onto a bunch of heels.

Good for Paul Titan!

Watching The Supertapes on WWE Network.

Not used to hearing Tony Schavonie and Lord Alfred Hayes commentating together. Honestly had zero idea He did Commentary for WWE back in the day.

He called SummerSlam 1989 and the 1990 Royal Rumble.
