That's going to piss off some of my twitter followers

I'm sure Rad dggy dg and Tammy will be fine.

I wonder if Stephanie's big announcement on RAW will be that she is adding herself to the Women's Main-Event as the Referee

"Imagine the heat I'd get if I knocked out Becky and Ronda and gave the win to Charlotte."

Definitely I expect Steph to be the ref. She wants to attach herself to a historical moment just like she always does.

NEED MORE HEAT DAMMIT

I could see that.

I could also see DBry retain via shenanigans because WWE will decide there is 'heat' in Kofi chasing for the belt.

And I could see Brock retain and then lose the belt to Big Doggo in Saudi Arabia too.

And I could see Corbin defeat Angle in a squash match to give him 'heat' and set him up as a big heel for Big Doggo Dog.

But the fans will get to go home happy when HHH overcomes Batista.

"The Big Doge"

Very Star. Much Over.

The part about beefcake originally being picked to play Lincoln on last week tonight is a touch funnier now

Also, this is announced on April Fools day, that would be cruel

I hate when they say "as first reported by". No shit dummies you intentionally leaked them the story.

Droford where u sittin at for WM?

Do you think someone booked Candice LaRae vs. Kay Lee Ray at Axxess just to fuck with the commentators?

https://i.ibb.co/b6KtvGk/sketch1554151724702.png

35 - $100 + taxes and fees
29 - $150 + taxes and fees

No, no, no. Horrible idea all round. New Japan don't need it either and it would most likely damage their business and their expansion. The UK promotions who partnered with WWE, for example, have cooled off significantly since WWE have cherry picked all their top stars and are keeping them to themselves. What are the likes of British Strong Style even doing right now for example? Their buzz has completely fizzled out.

With HHH already having designs for NXT Japan you have to believe any partner promotion would just become a feeder, because that's what's happening in Europe. New Japan is way too big to sink to that level.

Anyone in WWE who would "get a lot out of New Japan" would be better off leaving WWE entirely because they are most likely spinning their wheels in the midcard.

Liger is also retiring in January and was actually booked to wrestle Rey last year before he got injured and then WWE snatched him away before they could reschedule.

I'm likely gonna wind up in a similar spot. Even for your 29 seats, prices are double or triple that which is odd because usually week of the event people are trying to dump them for whatever they can get.

Both times I ordered first day of presale using a code

I see tickets in my section still going for $300, which is crazy

Yeah, I was on the fence on whether I even wanted to go. Truthfully I don't really WANT to go based on the build, but it's Mania so I kinda still want to.

My WM29 tickets were a Christmas gift so this is my first experience actually buying tickets to Mania. Didn't realize the secondary market was gonna be this pricy since my previous experiences were always the opposite.

And in a bunch of cases, they pay to have their stuff get reported because WWE's real mainstream value is way lower than what they keep gloating about.

Seems HBO and John Oliver got the snowball effect they wanted to happen after last night's Last Week Tonight show.

Already had one NXT ring announcer expose how its not just wrestlers who get hit with independent contractor status so WWE can skirt around certain labor laws and a former wrestler expose how WWE's rehab programs are a lot less honest than the company claims.

It's crazy that Brutus missed out on two IC Title reigns. One due to an angle to put the belt on Warrior, and the other one involving a mishap while parasailing.

Be a man not a rosebud

Have been watching a lot of Bret Hart matches this weekend.

Vs. Owen (WM 10, SummerSlam 94)
vs. Shawn (WM 12)
vs. Austin (WM 13)

Watched Bret vs. Piper (WM8) and Bret vs. Razor (Rumble 93) a few weeks back...basically all my favorite Bret matches. Still need to get to Bret vs. Bulldog, probably need other recommendations.

Considering how anal the WWE is about their presentation, things like these bother me.

Michael Cole said that Rey Mysterio is a 2-time WWE Champion and first won it when he defeated Randy Orton and his "now his good buddy" Kurt Angle.

Rey Mysterio is a 1-time WWE Champion (and a 2-time World Heavyweight Champion) and his reign barely lasted the length of the Monday Night RAW episode. Using the "World Heavyweight Championship" and "WWE Championship" interchangeably is stupid.

Put the pee pee in the hole

They’ve never given a shit about their title histories and have amalgamated them for years.

That's just sad, Noid.

John Cena is a 16-time WWE Champion to them.

Watch Bret vs Steamboat from the Boston Garden in 1986 and Bret vs Dynamite from another house show around that time.

AAA has a press conference at MSG on Thursday. I wish they would announce a supercard with AEW at MSG for the end of the year but I don't have any indication of that being planned beyond the logic of it and their partnership.

I really hate my typo on this title. I really want to rip the video and put it on youtube (so it's easy to share) but it doesn't seem fair to the creator/purchaser.

We can get it to 100

MSG pretty much no longer cares what WWE thinks for wrestling events at the venue. If AAA wants AEW at their event, MSG isn't going to stop them nor care if WWE feels upset. AEW ownership also has the money to force WWE to back down from any legal threats like Sinclair did for ROH.

WWE doomed themselves when they picked money over historical ties when they started to only hold events at the Barclays Center in NYC.

WWE is going back to MSG though on TV live.This AAA deal was made before the WWE probably decided they didnt want to Lose MSG. My guess is the show theyre doing in Sept probably included a deal to go back to the way it was. WWE doesn't care about AAA plus there was probably little they could do anyway. But I dont think you'll see another US based promotion run MSG for a while

Costs and not any influence or pressure from WWE would be the main reason if that situation were to happen.

Even WWE struggles to make good money from their MSG shows and outside of ROH and AEW, nobody else has the deep pockets to run one without a lot of help. AAA's pretty much taking a huge risk with their rumored MSG show since it has to be a huge success in order to kick start their rumored US expansion plans.

So did the Road Warriors. What is your point?

But what if you add Kurt Angle to the m... oh, wait.

WWE doesnt care about AAA at all. And it sounds like it's Impact Wrestling thats going to be involved with AAA, not AEW anyway.

Angle/Joe might end up happening

It is stupid only because of how inconsistent they are about it. They will go out of their way to say someone never won a specific title or how many times exactly, but then, turn around and count combined championships, including stuff like throwaway tag reigns.

Then again, they do it elsewhere. A person can't have wrestled for years all over the world and still be a rookie.

WWE was just as upset AAA was going to run a show there as they were with ROH since they wanted nobody to run shows there.

Only difference was WWE viewed ROH as the bigger and more direct threat of the two which is why they went hard after ROH first. Also helped that AAA was being vague on if they could even run a show in MSG until very recently so less reason to worry about them at the time.

well I hope aaa gets more help then impact an elite run in would help tickets

You do realize that the Young Bucks are the AAA Tag Team champions right now, right?

Can't wait for Cain Valesquez vs. Christopher Daniels at All In 2.

This isn't the smartest thing he's ever said.

Wait for Big E to get drafted to Raw later this month.

K, think I'm gonna have to officially tap out. The prices ain't going down. $200 gets you in the upper deck in the far back corner and I'm not convinced you'll be able to see jack.

If I was passionate about this card I might say fuck it and get a more expensive ticket but I just don't know if I can do that in good conscience for what has been such a poorly built show.

Who the fuck is Mary Kate Anthony?

She allegedly has the tryout match between Tom Magee vs. Bret Hart.

She worked with Bret digitizing his tape library for a project that never went anywhere. She had a VHS mislabeled saying a match with Bret/Magee was from 1989 but it was a long sought after one from 1986. Magee was supposedly high on Vince's list of guys to be the man after Hogan.

UPN is back! I want a Star Trek Voyager sequel series.

Homeboys in Outter Space

No thanks.

She also posted a few days ago that for legal reasons she can't share the footage.

I have seen a Tom Magee vs Bret Hart match, is it not the one in question?

she should just keep taking pics of the tv every second

Convinced that Joe will come out at WM. Rey will be announced, come out with Alexa "Due to being injured on RAW by Baron Corbin, this match is now the first ever WM US OPEN Challenge". Kurt Angle will come out, everyone will get excited. Then John Cena's music hits.
Triple Threat match. book it. Angle doesn't have to do much (gets knocked out of the ring for extened times to cover up he can't go anymore) but Angle wins the US title to retire and then they can do a Tourney on SD for a new US Champion.

Really? I could never find it.

Because I'm a giant loser, I went through Tom Magee's wrestlingdata profile and only found the one Bret vs Magee match.

Ooh, Meltzer made a typo. Fucking Brad Shepherd.

Cant wait for Brad to suck Meltzers dick after Ronda leaves

I don't think Ronda is leaving-leaving

I think she's taking a break until it's time for SD to move to FOX in October.

Yeah, I think something like that is the deal.

She'll be back for Summerslam

That would seem about right considering her break is rumored to be a long one and WWE feels confident she'd be back before Survivor Series in November.

Probably won't get the long rumored WWE 4 Horsewomen vs. MMA 4 Horsewomen match since WWE is rumored to be breaking up the group in NXT once Baszler gets called up. Also doesn't help that Duke and Shafir have a long way to go for their development.

It made its rounds on the net several years back. Maybe 3-5 years ago. It was really solid for sure. There were some rough spots but it was by far better than anything I've seen of him otherwise.

I seem to recall there being multiple matches and one in particular that was really good. I think I've herd Bret hart say that.

Since there is no Tipsters season this year, would anyone be interesting in playing in a Tipsters Eliminator season for the rest of this year?

Would start with WrestleMania 35 and last till the final WWE event of the year. Unlike regular Tipsters, winner isn't based on whoever has the highest score in the end but whoever scored the highest in the final event. After each event, a set number of people with the lowest scores get eliminated from the contest to trim down the field as the season goes on.

Also the ability to earn bonus points via a wildcard question related to the event itself and possible immunity for the next event for perfect scores. Scoring would be more simpler since pre-show matches wouldn't be counted and the amount of picks per match wouldn't be as in-depth (ex. no moves for finisher needs to be pick).

Been toying around with this idea for the past several weeks.
