How long til Brie either kills herself or someone else in the ring trying to emulate Daniel Bryan?

Go home and take care of the kid. No business whatsoever being in the ring.

I saw the move. I was waiting for the ref to throw up the X.

Except that if it was a work, they'd be doing something with it. Instead, no one mentions it. I'm not talking about when Stephanie or Bliss wear a song around ringside. I'm talking about how James and Jax just disappeared for a while. Or how Bliss, who isn't wearing a sling and was ringside when Jax returned, was just replaced in the MMC. 

They're working around the injuries rather than working them into the stories. And it's because Rousey's a face, and faces don't go around putting people out of commission. That's a heel thing. Faces soundly defeat the heels so everyone knows there's no reason for the heel to come back.

Agreed

Jax was out after she faced Ronda for a back injury. James was replaced in her storyline by Fox while she recovered. Bliss had to be replaced in the MMC, which is almost outside kayfabe. These aren't just worked outages. They're not major injuries, but they are causing these women to miss work.

Most of these were pre injuries before Ronda. Alexa was replaced after she had tingling down her arm that was attributed to a spinal problem.

Neither of the Bellas has any business in a WWE ring. Both of from the Divas era. Nikki has gotten some what better but let them have their show on E and stay away from the ring. One of the Wrestling bloggers wrote an article how it was awful and embarrassing to have the Bellas in the ring at Evolution and as usual the SJW's blasted him for it. Ironically that night Brie almost knocks out Liv Morgan cold and proves the guys point.

Joey Ryan is what's wrong with wrestling today. Seriously I think he's a talented wrestler but when I want to show people why I like wrestling and he comes on a show I'm absolutely embarrassed when I see him with that crotch rocket finisher. I'll admit I laughed at the All In stuff but the dude is making a mockery out of wrestling. He's trying way to hard to be Ravishing Rick Rude. 

 
This is from a source I know on twitter who knows a guy in WWE. Very sad update on Jason Jordan 

Sorry I’ve been busy with work and really disinterested in wrestling overall but I talked to my source today since ppv is here in San Antonio and we met today. He told me that Jason Jordan was told he will be not allowed to compete again

In a wwe ring. He was told last Monday in a meeting with triple h. Told he was devastated and asked to go home to think, which they granted. His injury is far worse as the one Edge had and the Bama doctors will use his case for testing and research

That kind of injury occurs to an individual that has been performing for a long time and they want to know more since it’s kinda as the Paige case. Don’t be surprised if Jordan takes over as GM for Angle I was told when he’s ready to come back. Sad ver sad.

Also theres some twitter stuff going around after the HITC PPV that Roman and Seth went out to a local grocery store. Some guys took some pics of them and a dad went up with his son to get an autograph. Per the daughter Roman told him "To stop taking pictures as I'm not an animal in a cage." kind of ironic since he was just in a cage type match. Seth was apparently a. **** to fans and telling a group of kids he wasn't taking a pic with them. Braun and Alexa also there and were awesome. Braun stayed in character the whole time

I’m going to defend Reigns here. These guys try to have a life out of the ring and probably get accosted more often than you think. The people who just start snapping photos are being flat out rude. 

Chances are, if they went to them and politely asked, they’d have probably posed for pictures. 

You also don’t know if Reigns had a bad day, is dealing with a personal issue, or just wanted to grab something and chill out. 

Just because they’re public figures doesn’t mean they’re public property.

Got to disagree here. You can decline to do stuff for fans but theres ABSOLUTELY NO DEFENDING HIM BEING A complete jerk About It. I've heard a few stories already like this with Roman. You may not be working but you still represent the WWE. I said this to someone one Twitter. He can politely decline it and say hey sorry I can't take pictures or sign anything right now I'm really tired or whatever. The guy who I referred to dad wise apparently wasn't taking pictures and got caught in the cross fire. Honestly if I had guys like that part of my company I'd be reprimanding them. Saying you guys still represent my company but you can just politely decline there. DOn't make a ### out of you and me. Also realize you are a celebrity and like it or not things like this will happen. Don't make a bigger scene then needed. 

The biggest problem with celebs and fans or paparazzi is they make a bigger issue out of these things then needed. Cause a bigger scene etc. I know paparazzi people are huge jerkoffs at times and quite frankly I wouldn't want them doing things like pictures of my kids without consent but these tabloids are looking for something to grab a headline. You got to learn how to act around them. It may not seem fair but trust me you got to learn. I was neighbors with Olympic Swimmer Brendan Hansen. Went to the Same HS as him but a few yrs apart. He use to tell me stories of the paparazzi around the swim team given Phelps Lochte etc. You learned fast hanging with them how to act professional. The media will do anything to cross the line and grab a headline and will do stuff to provoke you. You can't take the bait. Maybe the people taking pictures had followed them and all and yeah I'd be mad too but you can't act out towards them like that. You don't know who works with who or who maybe TMZ or something looking for a story of you act out. 

Like I said before this isn't the first instance of Roman being a jerk outside of WWE events. He apparently doesn't act out at events when he's there but outside he seems to be a real douch to people. I happen to know one of the Anoa'i Cousins who's closer blood related to the USO and Rikishi. Said Roman is a pretty funny down to earth guy but it doesn't take much to set him off. He said the dude has some anger issues he really needs to learn to control. One of the reasons Matt his brother wanted him to turn heel was he thought it would help Roman with his anger issues and use it to his advantage. 

 
Rumors swirling that Sasha may not be hurt but possible either Pregnant or going through some sort of other personal women health issues. WWE usually says if it's a personal issue or health related but are only saying she's hurt. 

 
I want to see the angle that they are playing about Ambrose turning on the Shield, reversed and have Ziggler join Ambrose, put the straps on them and turn the Shield into a modern day Four Horsemen, and have Heyman manage them.

Why would The Shield need to add anyone?  After all, the WWE already told us that The Shield is the greatest wrestling stable ever. Way better than the Four Horsemen, NWO, or DX.

That's just an awful angle. Just know anything they do with the Shield is for Roman. Shield don't need more members

The Dangerous Alliance is an obvious notable omission from the WWE list as well.  Hell, I'd also put in Devastation Incorporated over some of the listed faction.

Raven's Flock, Main Event Mafia, Fortune was awesome with Flair Managing Styles. Loved the Lethal Flair stuff then too 

 
WWE has lowest ratings in RAW history AGAIN for last night. RAW's ratings keep dropping but Vince keeps thinking Roman draws ratings. Not even bringing back the Social Security members of the past are helping ratings anymore.

Wrestlings gone bro. I may have made up to 5 posts in here since wrestlemania. Watching the old stuff is a million times more satisfying than anything. The excitement of actual sold out hot crowds each week is exciting to watch and re-live. I'd still like to think wrestling will figure this out. I think we're still in the toddler phase of wrestling navigating the age of immediate information and social media and history will look back at these past 15 years as figuring it all out. It's been a long process.

I check in at the top of a raw for the first half hour every month or so but it always puts me to sleep. Nothing is going to improve until Vince dies. And I hate to say and/or sound like that but it really is the truth. I've heard good things about New Japan and am thinking on subscribing to something where I can watch it, but not quite there yet.

Egad, that's a terrible list. When the Shield can have it's own PPV with a crooked ref in their stable (NWO) or hold all the promotions titles (Four Horsemen), or totally run amok (DX), call me. :coffee:

If you can get AXS TV, they're on every Friday night. IIRC, NJPWWorld is comparable to WWE Network or Honor Club.

Tell that to NJPW and ROH still putting on amazing shows with amazing promos and vignettes. Heck even Impact is getting entertaining. WWE got their money and don't have competition in terms of a WCW/ECW and got complacent and lazy.

Stick to NXT. Almost never a bad show.

Did you not see my post about Cena’s hair?

FWIW, a Saturday 0500 start is not conducive to live posting. Besides, we have to wait until @DJackson10 views it before we can comment. :D  

KUSHIDA BEAT MARTY SCURLL FOR THE IWGP JUNIOR HEAVYWEIGHT TITLE!!!!!!!!!

I just watched it last night. I had work at 10 but didn't leave till like 6 because of a call out and was watching the Florida/LSU game. I then completely crashed. I would've gotten up at 5 to watch it. I then work till 5 last night, watched the Eagles and then watched it. Cena looked weird with hair. I skipped that match besides the Elias/KO segement. When are we turning Elias face dammit!!!  The crowd seemed dead most of the show. I skipped a lot of matches. Skipped the tag title match as I have zero interest in New Day. They ran their course and despite liking The Bar anything involving New Day I can't stand. I skipped The Shield vs Drew,Braun and Dolph match saw the last 5 mins. Skipped the DB/Miz match besides the final part of it as it just didn't interest me without the belt. Joe/Styles wished they had had a Buried Alive match. It was one of their better matches. Watch the Riot Squad/Ronda match and surprised the Bellas didn't kill anyone in the ring. Double Arm bar was the highlight though of that. Loved the Iconics winning on home soil. They aren't the best talent but they are entertaining and if they gave Peyton more leeway she could be a really really good wrestler. So Happy for Buddy Murphy. I was not a big fan of his till he entered the CW Division and he's been a great surprise. Blake his old tag partner is with Gunner AKA Jackson Ryke and Cutter in the Forgotten Sons stable in NXT Now. Murphy also is a lucky ******* who gets to celebrate on top of Alexa Bliss. The Taker/HHH match was fun nonstolagia but it was really sad watching Taker move around in the ring. He can barely choke Slam hunter anymore either. May have been one of the weakest Choke Slams I've ever seen from him on Hunter. Loved the ending though where The BOD destroyed HHH and HBK. Looks like it's gonna set up a match at Mania between Kane and HBK. 

Overall it was what I expected the PPV to be and glad I didn't wake up early for it. Boring PPV with very few great moments. No matches worth talking about other then who won. 

 
I finished watched it this morning.  Expected a glorified house show and that's pretty much what I got.  New Day-Bar was the best match.  Nothing bad (tho Taker-HHH got really convoluted) but the only longer-term ramifications were the (seeming) end of AJ-Joe with a new #1 contender going forward.

 
RAW jerking the curtain with DX was painful to watch. It was like a living, breathing embodiment of Bruce Springsteen's "Glory Days".

 
Disco Inferno sighting! He manages a tag team in Ring Warriors called the Slambinos. He uses his real name. 

FUN FACT: He used to be a host at a Vegas strip club. :lmao:
