Okada stealing a cig from Joey would be....weird.

I know New Japan has some "comedy" acts, but for the most part they seem to exist in some sort of grounded reality. I don't know if aliens, stunted adults and dinosaurs are for them.

I guess Fridays are time for Hockey

Is Teddy back to his old tricks?

Tessa Blanchard is in a twitter war with a lot of other women. This is interesting.

I wonder if will help IMPACT sell out that 200 seater for their ppv finally...

According to Fightful, seems The Revival are going to wait till the very last minute to make an official decision whether to stay or leave WWE.

Also had an offer worth around more money than what Karl Anderson and Luke Gallows got to stay and another offer that was for a reduced work schedule.

Yikes @ Tessa Blanchard

Shit it crazy yo.

Rest in Peace, La Parka (II, not the original)

It's a shit show that I'm enjoying as it unfolds

Sad about La Parka.

Tessa is really stupid if she did all those things and made the initial tweet.

Literally, now that it came out she made a clip of herself taking a shit for a fan who offered her money.

"How about we all support one another." knowing that there's a wealth of people with fucking ammo for days, waiting to take your ass down. I mean, if it's true, this is karma. But at the same time, it was easily avoidable if she was just smart with her online presence. Don't beg to get buried.

La Parka (the fake one, not the one from WCW now known as LA Park) passed away yesterday.

Brad Shepard decided to rank the top 5 male butts in AEW since his top 5 women's butts in WWE post was so popular


http://prosportsextra.com/brads-butt...-butts-in-aew/


Have to agree with number 1

Somebody posted a male WWE butt poll on Twitter and Dash Wilder did quite well.

I think Poit would probably have voted for Dash

This is the saddest fuckin thing. Takes a bump that ends up killing him.

Yeah, especially when it was looking like his health was finally starting to turn around for the better last month.

This was a great watch.

I don't get what's going on and why the western Kentucky mascot is in Italy with Batista but..ok

Texas All Star wrestling. Fun promotion.

Sound like the next WWE Saudi Arabia show will be Feb 20


I wonder if that will throw off Mania since they have to do a lot of big matches at the Saudi Show each time.

Considering their problems at the LAST Saudi show, I think big matches are the least of their concerns.

Marty Scurl resigned with ROH and is now head booker.

Probably not although if they were smart, they could put a few Mania matches on this show so Mania 36's card doesn't end up being too bloated like last year. If the rumors about NXT being involved in Mania this year are true, could be looking at an even more bloated card than last year's show.

Wouldn't be surprised if they end up holding off on giving Tessa the Impact title considering the last time they had a ton of bad PR going into a PPV show, they changed their minds on giving Michael Elgin the Impact title.

well that was stupid

well lets see what he can do, can't be worse then bully ray. I want to see what they do with nwa.

Would explain why ROH was very willing to give him WWE tier money for a limited amount of dates.

Not only does he get to keep his outside bookings with NWA and NJPW, he now gets a backstage job with the company. Also being implied the terms of his deal still gives him the ability to work for AEW as well.

:| WWE actually did a Loser Eats Dog Food match at a house show today.

Considering WWE usually uses house shows to experiment with ideas and practice big matches, wonder how long till that happens on Smackdown or at a PPV.

Well, that was unexpected.

Can't be worse than Delirious (who wanted to be one of the boys and not the boss) or Bully Ray.

I stand by my theory that Marty is the smart member of the Elite, in that he actually gets wrestling more than the rest of them. He likely saw what was going on in AEW and was like "maybe it's not in my best interests."

Well, if Scurll wants to be a player-manager, more power too him.

The real task is turning ROH around and getting it back to the real alternative it used to be back in the day.

JFC... :nono::roll:

Yep, somehow AEW is just as bad or worse than WWE. So fucking pathetic. :roll::wtf:

Not if he's also aloud to do AEW. With their limited schedule he can pretty much do ROH, NJPW, NWA, and AEW if that is what his contract really is. He is the smart one at that he can play multiple companies but I don't think he's in the mind set that he's trying to avoid AEW. He knows his friends are worth some money but he's not going to tie himself to just them.

On the flip side, he's also staying in a company that's at its coldest point in a long time. Its why he also started working for NWA and keeping the NJPW door open for himself just to maintain his outside exposure.


Yeah, right now he's in a very great position to vastly improve his value both in and outside the ring especially if this new booking job ends up being successful.

Even if his new booking role doesn't turn around ROH, he's still going to be a highly sought after talent on the market when it comes to his next deal. ROH currently having the NJPW deal and AEW not having one is a huge advantage for ROH.

Haven't seen either one, but I wonder if this will end up being someone's gimmick... you know, like that Diva's poll did for Cody once upon a time.

Got around to watching NXT UK's TakeOver show from Sunday.

Pretty good show overall although NXT UK still hasn't had a TakeOver I'd put on the same level as a upper tier NXT TakeOver.

Tyler Bate vs. Jordan Devlin was great and one of those must see type matches. Women's title match and Ladder match for the tag titles were also very good.

Not sure what was dumber, the booking decisions during WALTER vs. Coffey match or what happened after the match.



Spoiler tag used in case anyone that hasn't watched the show yet doesn't want to be spoiled by what happened.

Very considerate of you, Smeat. Unlike Simple Fan who has spoilers in the title of his Impact thread.

The TNA ppv reviews from Bryan and Vinny are fucking hilarious!

If Scurll can get Sinclair to break the bank, that’s a major fucking start.


Cody is about to get on all fours and be whipped like a dog to get a match with MJF.

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Imagine getting so Mad On The Internet that you straight up admit to not paying some wrestlers and make your boss, WWE Hall of Famer/Executive VP Triple H, look even worse for claiming on WWE's podcast that he only signs development deals with indie promotions that pay reliably. <a href="https://t.co/QwkqOy9obp">pic.twitter.com/QwkqOy9obp</a></p>&mdash; David Bixenspan (@davidbix) <a href="https://twitter.com/davidbix/status/1216852730318331904?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">January 13, 2020</a></blockquote> <script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

This is either the 2nd or 3rd time since Triple H gave the excuse about WWE killing the British indies actually being a good thing that EVOLVE's owner decided to make a big fool of himself and help make Triple H's claims feel even more BS.

My understanding was the whipping thing is if MJF wins his match against Cody.

Jay White being announced for Supercard of Honor 14 before WM

1 year prior he was main event MSG

Lol

Awesome! Cancel culture takes an L

I thought he had to win a Cage Match and then get whipped to get the match.

Hmmm... googling it, you appear to be right. Guess I misunderstood/misheard.

At least it makes slightly more sense now why Cody didn't "instantly accept" the match and is taking "time to think about it"

It's probably not your fault. I've seen lots of people confused about it.

And Kris Statlander is an alien.

Lol, remember when Matt Hardy killed Jeff's dog?

"The Black Cloud." Coming to an AEW arena near you.

"Literal fucking dog"

That would be funny

At least the Big Bossman and Al Snow feud was actually entertaining to watch unlike the Corbin and Reigns feud on Smackdown.

Becky had her eyes closed..wrong thread too lol

We don't know Al Snow's culinary tastes

There is nothing that beats this though. So fucking hilarious. Late 2000 WCW is just the greatest lol.

Apparently Triple H has been catching a lot of online backlash for a tasteless joke he made at Paige's expense regarding her sexual life.

Making things worse is the joke also was a bit mean spirited to say considering Paige has been public before about not being able to have kids due to a medical problem she had in the past.

She'll get a random bonus, some extra TV time, and no one will care in 2 weeks.

Triple H seems like the sort of guy who laughs the loudest at his own jokes and slaps the shoulders of people who are awkwardly looking to exits.

Triple H has always told shite jokes. If people only care now because he zinged a tart with a barren uterus then those people are wankers that need a good sized punch in the teeth.

No, you don't.

I don't know why, but the fact that she's down for kinky shit and can't have kids makes Paige even more attractive to me. :shifty:

I think it's pretty garbage for a COO to do that to one of their employees, publically. Fuck, in private when you're bantering with friends and fam, call her whatever you want. But that is not what a good leader does.

You'd think that someone with three girls would be a bit more enlightened with that kind of stuff.

How about her bf shuts the fuck up about someone making offensive jokes hypocritical emo douche.

Who gives a shit about her dumb boyfriend? He's irrelevant. Look at the actual issue, which is a COO showing definitive cracks in his game.

I do when he's bitching about a joke being offensive and this can be found simple to understand.

Shut the fuck up if you were really some moral compass you wouldn't still be supporting a company that does business with Saudi Arabia.

Black Widow does, which is why she posted it.

Don't be such a tough guy Dale.

Chris Jericho is nearly the same age as Gerry Brisco was when he was one of the stooges.

Crazy

That’s a REALLY stupid thing for an executive to say. It’s not the most egregious thing ever, but it’s just odd that someone in Triple H’s would be possessed by the idea that this would be a clever thing to say publicly in 2020. Why would you do it? It’s like his self-satisfaction at coming up with the line overtook any other instinct he has.

He just looks like a fucking idiot. Imagine thinking it is a good idea to imply a female employee is a slut in 2020.

That’s so fucking crazy.

So’s Triple H.

Sometimes I think back to that Hogan/Piper cage match that got lampooned at the time. I’m pretty sure those guys were only about 42/43 then.

Yeah... and I remember thinking "these guys are soooo old" at the time....

Paige being a man all this time should be bigger news than this. Poor bastard children.

It's really strange...

If you look at boxing, George Foreman winning the Heavyweight Title in his 40's was wild. Now look at how many boxers are boxing in their 40's and who look way better than he did at the time.

Oliver McCall is 54 and he fought two years ago...
He looks pretty old and cracked out though to be perfectly fair.

I don't understand how in the last twenty five years athletes have begun ageing so well.

I think just a lot more in general known about "health" and "the body"... like... "science" and stuff about how to most efficiently take care of yourself

Except it wasn’t relevant and Black Widow is a dummy. Paiges bf being a wanker doesn’t mean she deserves to have her boss sell her down the river publicly lol I get you like being the person without compassion, but dude come on. Would you do that in his position? Or are you just upset because you think I’m acting like a libtard snowflake?

No amount of healthy living could ever make Gerry Brisco or George Foreman look as young at 50 as Chris Jericho or Roy Jones Jr

No I'm just fucking around.
