On Dave/Elite:
Interesting. When I heard Dave talk about the line potentially driving the Elite off, I thought he must be getting that line from them. It wouldn’t be out there if he wasn’t getting it from them. I assumed it was The Elite were bothered and just acting cool but trying to get their angle out there. That still makes more sense to me than everyone actually being fine (dirt sheets tried to spin the ESPN interview that didn’t have comments from them).
I dunno, more will come out, but my gut tells me that The Elite, being the modern Hulk Hogans of professional wrestling, probably have no issue playing both sides. Possibly telling Dave they’re probably leaving, possibly telling Sapp they’re staying and fine.
No news about them signing new contracts though? If they’re manipulating Dave, legit, it will be funny to see if he goes crawling back to Cornette. I just wouldn’t put it past all parties to be in on this to drum up interest. Whatever.
