Really great shit. But people here would rather talk about a dumb jobber.

I'm jazzed about Gulak being on NXT. Hoping he sticks around for a while. Think he's done all he can on 205 Live and it's not like they'd do anything of substance with him on Raw or SmackDown. May as well let him go to NXT and have some quality matches.

Honestly they should scrap 205 live, fold the vast majority of the talent into NXT and give them the additional time. NXT is the best product WWE puts out and I would watch more of it.

Might be better to just put them back on RAW considering NXT is already too stacked with talent. Even adding more time might still not be enough to spread quality time around with Cruiser guys.

At least with RAW, they have a lot of time available and their biggest problem is filling it out with interesting content each week. At least on paper, Cruisers would be a lot more useful there than on NXT.

Seems WWE was worried CBS might consider trademarking the term "Then Now Forever" after airing the phrase during last week's Super Bowl festivities.

Even though they've been using the phrase since 2012, they only got around to trademarking it the day after the SB. Also only covers wrestling related stuff though.

There was a rumor recently about WWE starting to become very wary of their tv ratings woes and taking a lot more risks to find stuff that sticks with audiences.

If that's the case, it's totally self-fulfilling.

A couple of pages ago, it looks like an argument took place about Bugenhagen (a name I can't repeat without thinking of Final Fantasy VII) and indy neckbeards digging it and getting him over or somesuch. While it may be true that *that* might not work on a grander stage (but maybe it will... you don't know that from a single appearance), the bigger issue is NOTHING seems to work on a bigger stage for one reason or another, and a lot of those reasons are self-inflicted. In the span of that show, Bugenhagen showed his charisma, Gulak had a decent match and put him away, but not in a one-sided beatdown that made it look like he didn't belong, then cut a good promo calling out competition, which drew the attention of Matt Riddle, and led to a very good match between Gulak and RVD-lite, ending with a show of respect between the two. Later, Eric came back out and danced again, and got a pop for it.

So, you had an ok match, a damn good match, three guys showing their own brand of charisma, and all three guys coming out better on the other side of that, and got interest for people to see more of them sometime in the future.

Had something like this transpired on the main roster, Bugenhagen would be totally made to look and sound like a chump in both squash match fashion and from constant berating from the booth. Then, Gulak and Riddle would have just fought to a no-contest so they can hurry up and show Liv Tyler stretching backstage or have that one chick who asks stupid and obvious questions to some wrestler so she can point her tits to the camera . They'd announce a match in passing for Drew and Matt for 205 Live, and you'd never see or hear from any of those three again for a couple of months unless they need a jobber to feed to Bobby Lashley or something.

Main roster WWE continues to tell people through writing, booking, and actions that:

- The only people worth a damn are stars who got over maybe about ten to twenty years ago... and ironically, some of them were seen as not stars to hang their hat on to carry the company back then.

- Any new NXT callup is either only worth being a surprise Royal Rumble entrant at the least, and maybe about a month worth of hype at the most, and then all the shiny gets rubbed off of them in short order.

There is no reason why Bobby Roode should be tagging with Chad Gable outside of not knowing what to do with Gable besides tossing him into random tag teams for a majority of his time in WWE. Roode had everything to be fast tracked into being taken seriously (fast tracked, not hotshotted) and had a working gimmick, music, plus the ability in the ring and on the stick. So, what has he done? Feuded with Dolph Ziggler who shit on that. Roode didn't come out better proving he's "more than an entrance", he just fell to where almost everyone else is: a face in the crowd.

- The Women's Evolution has been distilled into all the women falling into one of two categories: gimmicks where they're badasses, or gimmicks being that they are hot.

- If getting over isn't in the plan for that person, they get derailed instead of rolling with whatever unless there is sustained pushback that actively fucks up some plan. Conversely, they will beat a horse to death, perform CPR, then beat it to death again if they want something no matter how much it clearly isn't over.

Balor was brought in as a big deal, but he got hurt, so fuck him, and it took quite a long time to finally decide to push him back up the card to where he was to begin with. Slow trigger pull on Becky. A retconned trigger pull on Bayley even though she got the "about time" pop from folks. A cynnical push for Jinder for marketing reasons, multiple failed opportunities for a heel turn for Roman to warrant the boos, finding ways to stick Charlotte Flair (one of the few NXT stars to get more than a fair shake... but gee, I wonder why) into the top spot of either women's divison even if it is at the detriment of any other talent... the list goes on.

It's almost like 80% of anything compelling on the main roster is totally accidental, like Nia being sloppy and punching Becks in the face for realsies. You couldn't make that up, and that was a short-term angle handed to them on a platter, and they still found a way to fuck that up and kill interest in seeing Nia get a reciept... and that's the other 20%; staying to see exactly how they are going to fuck up the next project.

I'm fairly certain Shane has zero power or say in creative.

Yeah, as far as I know when he came back in 2016 it was strictly under a performer's contract. I'm sure he could politic to do certain things or whatever but it's not like he's writing the show.

I don't think he ever did. Shane doesnt have a great rep when it comes to creative.

Welp...I certainly can’t un-see that.

That's fantastic

Honestly, I'm in on this.

Paige's biopic comes out this week, a nationwide release, and WWE couldn't even get it's producer, The Rock, to appear live or even via satellite in a taped segment to promote it.

WWE Films presents: Aphex Twin - Windowlicker (Remastered)

I've got a Jinderlution he goes hides underground and never comes out again.

Lol, Vince Russo in WWE again. That will surely go to shit very fast.

Did they try to get him to appear?

Random question: With so much talent under contract and many of them being vocally unsatisfied with their positions and the openings to be used better, what do you think the chances are that WWE does something bizarre and drastic. Even if we’re not in the mood for even more WWE content, would it be so outlandish for WWE to announce that they are launching a third brand? Ever since the FOX deal was announced, I’ve kind of had it in the back of my mind that WWE may not be willing to give up Tuesdays.

AEW is also gaining traction. I can see Vince wanting to do his old trick of directly competing in order to block out AEW or limit their audience. When they did the Halftime Heat show recently, I think at least part of it was to gauge public interest for an NXT show. They have their Network numbers, but they keep that quiet, and it’s limited by how many possible subscribers they can reach.

With live events being quieter and all the money being in TV, and with them wanting more Network minutes, without them needing to fret about PPV buys, I’ve just been wondering about the chances of them doing something completely surreal and launching something of a semi-autonomous Tuesday brand, and actually having it be run by either Shane or Triple H, with its own production team, writing crew, agents and aesthetic, but able to use WWE trademarks and hide their specials under the safety of the Network.

Is this something that USA or FOX would care about? Would they feel it saturates their marketplace too much? Is it potentially a good idea? Is it inherently awful?

I’ve always been against WWE running any sort of “WCW One Night Stand” shows. It’s a dead brand and it never had the same “cult appeal” that an ECW had. But I read something about the WCW trademarks coming up. I doubt WWE let them go. What if Vince McMahon thought “Fuck it. I miss the days of competition and I want to give Shane something to run. I can make the XFL something, dammit, I can have my WCW the way I wanted it in 2001.”

Is it just too out of character for Vince to back a wrestling promotion he’s not going to micromanage? It was the plan at one point, and Vince loves proving that he was right all along.

Nope, and he's one of the film's producers so he literally makes more $ if it does better.

Five years ago we got treated to something special...

rusev was the best part of the last few seasons, glad to see the bellas leave though I fast forward through there apperences.

rusevs contract must be coming up sometime near, he has been unhappy for over 3 years so I don't think rusev signed in the past few years.

Dirtsheets had something about him not being liked or something. Screw that.

I can't imagine anybody believing "reality TV" isn't heavily scripted in 2019.

WCW Wanted Buff Bagwell To Die In A Plane Crash And Become A Ghost For An Angle



I wish they did that angle!

If you mean me, it's a Wrestling With Wregret video where he reviews the awful Rob Van Dam's Extreme Championship Comedy. At around 7:10, and a couple other time marks, there's footage showing the credits, and CTS (former poster Cooler Tom Schuler) is listed as one of the story writers.

Thats why I don’t watch it. This is just hilariously fake.

Oh yeah, he gets around.

Seems ROH could be dealing with a Good/Bad case scenario for their G1 Supercard show. The good being that it quickly sold out but the bad being that around 4k tickets are currently on the secondary market which could led to the situation of a lot of empty seats when the show airs.

lol

Everyone bought Tix expecting certain people to be there who won't be..

Good news is Tix will get cheaper and I'll get to to see wrestling at MSG

I just thought it was wild that he was involved in something so atrociously bad that actually at one time had a slim chance of being put on cable.

I gotta tell ya, man, one of the things that keeps me active here are all the wild and wacky characters and the stories they share and of course our shared experiences. I honestly don't think I'd have stayed around as long as I have without the Usual Gang of Idiots (LOL, MAD magazine reference).

at least shes not roman reigns...

Charlotte is pretty hot, screw the haters, but her personal life, between Bram, Del Rio, the alleged racist slurs...she really is her father’s daughter as far as drama goes.

I didn't know Charlotte Flair was with Del Rio. I just read up on the alleged racist slurs, don't know if they can be substantiated.

That's very ignorant of the fan. Sure, we're not happy with her being introduced into the title picture on RAW, but there's no denying that she's one of the best female performers in the business at this time.

I don’t know if they were ever together or even fucking, but I remember reading about heat between her and Paige over Del Rio pursuing that relationship.

I remember seeing Nathan Jones in a couple of Indian films.

Nathan Jones was awesome in The Protector and Fury Road

Seems like a really good guy. Glad he’s done well for himself.

Nathan Jones is a good candidate for someone to give a talent injection to. Could have been huge if he wasn’t shit. Would be a good theme for an SCG Radio podcast.

Little bit of both really. Charlotte i is an attractive blonde with a banging body, who's absolutelya gifted athlete and also the beneficiary of nepotism. Nia Jax is getting prominent time, angles and mulligans for injuring anyone with a pulse simply based on being a direct relative of the Rock. Thinking Charlotte isn't getting preferential treatment because of her dad is silly. She just happens to be really fucking good.

Pillars didn't make this piece of shits cut?

WTF :o

They are mostly small time teams, I could take or leave the GymNasty Boys, as White Mike is literally Joey Ryan who doesn't even bother with the weight room. He was the dude doing the eating in the Whipped Cream Incident.

According to r/SquaredCircle, if the Men's Elimination Chamber match goes on last at this Sunday's show, it will be the first time since the start of the current Brand Split Era that the WWE Championship main evented a co-branded PPV.

Also if Becky Lynch competes in the real main event match at Mania 35, she will be the first non-Canadian and non-American to do so since Andre the Giant at Mania 3. The streak only breaks if its the actual last match and not WWE's stance of several matches having main event status for Mania.

I would love for Smackdown to close the show like they did at TLC. I don't believe the female performers in the tag team title chamber match are strong enough to close the show. Also, it's a bit disheartening that we do not have a clue as to what the WWE Championship or Smackdown Women's Championship matches are going to be for Wrestlemania.

"RAW Women's Championship" headlining Wrestlemania just doesn't sound right.

Got a feeling that both will main event. Does it mean what it used to, though?

Actually, in WWE’s defense and to Becky’s possible credit, it does feel like they are genuinely trying to build Mania around her. We don’t even have an inkling where anything other than Brock/Seth is going.
