Let's see. Pulling for Lashley but would rather have Reigns win than it end in a draw. No triple threat at Summerslam!
Not sure If I'm happier at the thought of being able to turn off the PPV early, or watching the Brooklyn crowd #### all over the match. Currently leaning towards tuning out early.Craig_MiamiFL said:The match the world has been waiting for will main event Summerslam...
.... THE BIG DOG!!!!
Slow your roll, chief. You released a 4-song EP; Jericho has Fozzy and several albums.
They should be lucky to find any deal. Jeff Jarrett's been looking for what, 3-4 years, for a deal for his Global Force Wrestling. Yes, I'm pretty sure he's still claiming "it exists".
Even if it was at the end of Volkoff's run...dang.
Don't work yourself into a shoot methinks, Brother Tom.
It's great I thought like every other non "WWE Made" talent AJ would falter but someone must really like him. I'm so happy he's the champ as Ive been watching him since the Early 2000s. He wrestled an off chance show my buddies dad Brought us too at the National Guard Armory in Philly where ROH ran out of at the time. I kept on thinking back then this kid was really good. Someone next to us mentioned that AJ had been in WCW with a Tag Team and WWE had his contract but let him go. Little did I know at the time not only would I be watching the future WWE Champion but the building right across the street my Brother would be living in when attending school at Drexel.
Only difference is AJ could have a 5 star match with a broom stick or a blow up doll. Cena needs someone to carry the match for him. Cena I admire his passion and his mic skills and he's gotten somewhat better as his career is in the later stages. However based on people I know I heard he's a real d***hnoozle and company Yes man rat. They wanted to take the Diva's title off Niki and when Cena found out about it she got to keep the title longer and then WWE got petty had her break AJ Lee's record for days held to spite AJ and Punk. He also got Carlito fired when they were at a bar Cena kind of heard Carlito complaining about something and basically told him he had to work harder. he then ran to Vince and said Carlito was talking poorly about him. Next thing Carlito knows he's future endeavored. People around the locker room at the time who were at the bar said Carlito only mentioned he didn't like the way his character direction was going. He was hoping to possible get a meeting with Vince or Lauranitis head of talent Relations. That's when Cena made the snide remarks. One of my sources also told me he got Kenny Dykstra fired. Dykstra has said over the yrs Cena is the reason he was let go. I asked my source and he confirmed it about 4-5 yrs ago. He said Cena was messing around with Divas backstage despite being in a relationship with his then HS sweetheart who he engaged too while filming 12 rounds and Dykstra caught him with Mickie James who at the time was Kenny's Fiancee. Mickie at the time was being pushed to the moon remember with the title. It then abruptly ended and the reason was Cena split from her after Kenny Dykstra caught them. He got Kenny fired over some BS I don't even remember now because of how ridiculous it was and he ran to Vince about it. Mickie was evidently released in 2010. I got confirmation from several people that Mickie at first was hesitant about the relationship and Cena told her that his GF didn't mind. Before she was released Mickie was one of the divas who told Cenas now wife about the affair and even told her she knew at least one other who she was good friends with John was fooling around with after they broke off everything.
I love Jericho. I mess with him on Twitter because the podcaster I listen too and follow is decent friends with y2J and I met Chris with Fozzy at a show here in Philly the last time they were here. Jericho is awesome. Seriously if he didn't have a time constraint we could've sat down at a bar locally had a few beers and shoot the sh** about wrestling a music all night. That's how cool he was. My buddy even offered to buy him a drink and he said he had to go do to time constraints. We got his autograph as well.
Yeah really finding a contract these days not named WWE wrestling wise is hard to come by. Local Sinclair station shows ROH and it's a channel that on basic cable. Impact is lucky to still have their contract as well.
With the type deal WWE got, the time is now for these smaller promotions to hope to capitalize on something...anything. Quite apparent these networks are looking for content.....even bad content. I've tried several times in the past to watch Raw / Smackdown. I get through MAYBE 5 minutes before I'm just bored out of mind. Reading Results and watching Youtube Clips of anything that ok is much better.
Outside of Elias / Miz / Braun and now the B Team, I just find it completely unwatchable. I've always been a huge Bo Dallas fan. In another era, one with good writing, the guy would have been huge with his act IMO. I thought his first gimmick on the main roster had great potential. Then they just jobbed him one day of his undefeated streak to R-Truth and did away with it.
On a final note, Matt and Jeff Hardy look so broken down it's sad to watch. They've been working in some part in WWE/F for almost 25 years. Matt's first WWE match was against......Nikolai ####### Volkoff (!!!!). Jeff's first WWE match was against....Razor Ramon.
It was amusing back in the day when Bobby Heenan would go off on Hogan about various things and basically calling him a fraud. Imagine the payoff he got years later when Hogan turned at Bash at the Beach.
Was Heenan's though real beef with Hogan or was it just promo shoot work? Did Heenan genuinely hate Hogan?Tom Servo said:
then there is the opposite of heat in one of the lowest pops ever shown on TV for a return :(
He cut an awesome promo on his dad that night though. The problem was I don't know where they were but anyone who's a diehard WWE fan would've known who he was.
The whole set up was screwed up.
Know what's sad about that video? There gonna be people who see that and think it's real and not realize the Yes Chants the Daniel Bryan types didn't start until a few yrs after this segment.This is funny. This is a recut of the Brian Christopher return only to show the audience caring

The answer is no. Nazi gimmicks were common in the years after WW2 as a way to get heat. (BTW, Colonel DeBeers says hi.) As more time passed, the gimmick became less effective at drawing heat. I'd hate to see people today watching DeBeers and early Fritz Von Erich - they'd have a darn fit.DJackson10 said:

They had this in Philly but at The Tower Theatre which seats a little over 3K for a concert. Can't remember the total for NXT but it was like 3 yrs ago when they were still just becoming popular. Tickets were pretty expensive though and my co worker who does WWE filming when in town said it wasn't worth the price of admission given it wasn't a live taping. Given also this show was after Finn Balor and several others I'd wanted to see were just called up it really wasn't worth going.Gottabesweet said:
