I hear a lot of good things about Dax Harwood, but I just don’t see it. He’s a little “boring” isn’t he? If being an ol’ timey wrestler worked, why did the NWA go out of business and the WWF need to change? Why did Smoky Mountain fail? I don’t think classic wrestling is the way forward. Get with it and learn how to be exciting like modern talent that get so over wifi the smarter fans today that don’t think it’s real.

Merry Christmas. Didn't get on here Saturday, obviously, but I *thought* about it. Should count for something, right? Besides, it isn't like you guys put up a tree or anything, so the next night is just as well.
Besides, I guess to the international folk, it would still technically be Boxing Day here, and it would have been the day a lot of traditional churches celebrated "Christ's Mass", so yeah. Merry Chrstmas or whatever to all who give any shred of a fuck that I'm wishing it. Hope it was at least any degrees away from suck for you all. |
Just use Covid in the storylines. It’s a good explanation to pocket Reigns and Lesnar and have Seth whinge about being taken out of a title match.

Fightful reporting WWE no longer requiring Covid testing following Seth Rollins positive Covid test
|
Yep. Basically doing the NFL approach of burying their heads in the sand.
Omicron's transmissibility is getting to the point where it's a near-lock that an entire locker room would get infected even though the vast majority of people will have little to no symptoms, especially the vaccinated. So it's either shut it all down for two weeks or press on, and just about every sports/entertainment medium is gonna opt for the latter. |

Maybe it’s just me, but if I ran a business and my only full time money maker was an at risk cancer survivor who already gave up a world title win in the main event of Wrestlemania to keep himself safe from COVID and I also had COVID actively running through my roster, I would probably keep testing for COVID.

lol WWE looking for seat fillers for Day 1. I just signed up. We'll see what happens.
|
Seat fillers huh? Is it a paid gig?
|
Apparently if anyone within camera view gets up and leaves to piss, get food etc, the seat filler has to run in and sit in their seat until they return because they want camera side to look full at all times.

I heard someone talking about the WWE setting up a permanent venue in Florida and running weekly from there to cut travel costs. It’s actually a no-brainer the more I think of it. Being the travelling circus worked when you were trying to expand and whatnot, but there’s something to having the cultural status to make people come to you.
|
I brought up the Vegas idea a while back. I definitely think it could happen. Especially with Nick Khan in power.

They could have a resort attached. All the talent could have permanent residencies near their workplace. When you go down to Florida for the weather, or for Disney World or Universal Studios, you can go and see the WWE because, heck, that’s what you do when you visit Florida. Vegas could have a similar appeal to them. Lots of tourists, permanent attractions they can piggy-back off. My guess would be Florida first, because of the PC and their presence there already. |

The clusterfuck booking of this, which was easily the biggest match WCW built to in the 90s, is (imo) what began the downfall of WCW.

Worst is when Hogan gives Sting the big boot when he's like barely a foot from the ring ropes leaving him nowhere to fall into place without looking like a geek
|
I remember the Hogan/Sting buildup as a kid.... to me no match was ever bigger, and hasn't been bigger since. Everyone was talking about it at school, and I think the N64 game had just come out and was popular too and had an ad for the PPV in the box.... The level of hype around that match was just legendary and I still get chills watching the entrance. The way it flashes the half-dissolves of Hogan during Sting's entrance is like the most incredible TV production ever.
|
SMH at that video slik posted not having Voodoo Child as Hogan's entrance.... takes a lot of "epicness" out of the moment.... was gonna watch Sting's entrance but had to turn it off....

On Sting: I used to just see the Sting side. Pay off the fucking angle. The whole thing was booked to shit even if it went down like it was supposed to. Definitely this protecting of Hogan that screams egos of the time.
That being said, if you’ve given a guy off all this time, and he comes back looking less than they want him to (but it’s not like they couldn’t see him in the weeks and months leading up to this), it is going to cause friction. Sting had a cushy spot that was going to draw him ire if he didn’t “appreciate” it enough. But I think it was just politics disguised as being a reasonable critique of the reality. If you’re trying to undercut a guy for your own stardom (and Hogan’s contract was expiring too), then you try to find a realistic weakness to try and knock him down some pegs. They had Bret Hart coming in and Goldberg coming up too. Such a weird time. I can see Hogan using his status as the heel to edge himself into further importance around this time too. |

Apparently on The Bump X-Pac alluded to a wrestling return. Said he would be ring ready by 2022 in case the phone rings. Seems like a Rumble spot would be most likely.
He’d seemingly be a better agent for AEW than Billy Gunn, but is the more likely guy to end up doing spots with WWE. |
could definitely see him doing some work in the ring with GCW. i know he's worked with them doing commentary in the past, and they use a number of "legends" on their shows (effy vs. 2 cold scorpio from a few months ago was really fun).
|
GCW would definitely use him. He’d probably get work in AEW too. But since he did this on a WWE program, you’d have to think something is in the works there, right? Unless that program is so under the radar he just went into business for himself? I honestly don’t know about that show.
I wonder what a 49 year old sober X-Pac looks like. Has he aged like milk or does he show up everyone? |
