Not sure on exclusive guys but just seems WWE got really petty because MLW beat them to signing MJF to a deal.

In terms of commentary team, they do have Tony Schiavone in the booth.

Seen very little of MJF but his resemblance to EC3 is crazy.

Ol Dirty Dastard 05-24-2018 10:23 PM

I heard Tony was very good for MLW.

He has to go back and listen to his old WCW shit for his podcast with Conrad and I get the idea he uses it to sharpen up his toolkit. Plus, he was actually a fantastic commentator before 1998.

Wonder if WWE is going to spend some of their upcoming huge stash of cash on more competent merch designers.

Some of their new merch looks like something you'd pay $10 or so to get quickly done at a cheap custom print shirt store.

MLW is really good actually. I've been watching by casting it from youtube as I don't have beinsports. The wrestling is solid as heck, the productions is probably the best out there aside from Lucha Underground and NJPW. I mean it's better than ROH. Plus it has Tony and I love him. Aside from my love for him (nostalgia, that voice) he has been upping his game big time. It's a fun show, I wouldn't be as into it without Tony though. But luckily he signed for 3 years.

Bryan is so impressive. He doesn't do any HUGE weight (though pretty decent weight for a guy his size), but he's so fluid with every movement and his footwork is great.

Love Sheamo, he works out like me because he's all arms and legs. Zero mobility but he tries his ass off and just powers through workouts, fucked up spine or not.

Innovator 05-25-2018 10:58 AM

One of my favorite things about Sheamy's workouts is catching Cesaro in the background being a machine.

Vastardikai 05-25-2018 01:55 PM

I am certain that Cesaro's daily workouts involve 100 push ups, 100 sit ups, 100 squats, and a 10 km run.

Not nosebleed. They were fifty bucks. The first level up from the floor, about seven rows up. Think about the corner where if The Shield were to enter, they'd come from this corner.

Doubt it although he might perform a lot better due to having more training under his belt and unlike last time, didn't have an injury or two interfere with his development.

Punk's biggest value for UFC is being able to bring in a sizeable wrestling crowd for hype and events but if he loses badly again, him as a draw is pretty much over. If he wins, UFC could parlay that into a 3rd fight to squeeze more from his wrestling drawing power.

See, I would have thought the other way. But I guess that's because I have a skewed perspective on being bigger than my older brother. I'm about 100lbs heavier (now - but even waaaaaaay back when I was in running shape, I still had about 20lbs on him) and I'm about 8 inches taller.

What should I do?

Go with your friends, then excuse yourself and go to the luxury box. After the show, tear a few holes in your shirt and pour a bottle of water on your head, and go back to your friends. When they ask you where you were and what happened, tell them you got jumped by an "unknown assailant".

Buy a cheap shirt for the purposes of wrecking it

Looks like WWE finally got the biggest female star they wanted going back the last 2 years.

The original plans for last year's MYC had the winner be between Io and Toni Storm based on them signing deals with Io being the favorite of the two.

Tokyo Sports reported in its Monday newspaper that Shirai would be going to WWE and her final show with Stardom would be June 17th. Sources close to her have confirmed the story.

Shirai, real name Masami Odate, 28, was named Japanese Women's MVP in 2015, 2016, and 2017.

She was first contacted by WWE in October 2016. She and Kairi Hojo (now Kairi Sane) both went back-and-forth on deals since the WWE contracts were for less money than they were making, but they were convinced the upside of becoming stars outside of Japan were enticing. She finally accepted the deal last May, however a heart issue was discovered in WWE medical examining and WWE rescinded the offer last June, and she returned to Stardom. She underwent a full medical examination in Japan and was fully cleared and has been the top star in the company since.

She lost her Wonder of Stardom title to Momo Watanabe on Wednesday night, which started rumors of her being WWE-bound. However, in that case, one had nothing to do with the other as the booking plan was for Watanabe, who they hope to be a future top star, needed the win at this time. The promotion wasn't aware of Shirai leaving until today.

Tessa Blanchard is legit. Tight theme song, too.

Was I the only one waiting for a slingshot suplex that never happened, though?

You most certainly were not.

And yes, that poster is most dope. I'd like to tattoo it on my entire back.

They don't really make PPV posters like they used to.

Much like their T-Shirts, most of their PPV posters have declined in design and originality over the recent years.

Most of the time it's just a publicity shot of 1-4 wrestlers that have been cut out and stuck on to a background of either black, white or the WWE's own photo of a WWE event taking place.

In the cases of big events or big matches taking place, they have nearly half the entire roster's publicity shots just crammed into the poster.
