Lars is so doomed on the Main Roster. You can't wrestle and please don't panic chants. Jesus Christ he's D O A already 

When Lars was ready to return he made no effort to also put in any input on his stuff. Word is WWE would've #### canned him to the curb already if it wasn't for his mental health issues. If it was like a Big Cass thing of just being difficult to work with he'd have been gone already. When Lars was away WWE did everything possible to help him and he simple ignorance them and #### in the hand that feeds him

VKM can be mad at Lars all he wants. If he fires Lars because his mental health issues, it's an ADA violation and WWE opens itself to legal action.

Oh, nice job by the knuckle-draggers in the crowd. :rolleyes:

I understand that and its why he wasn't let go which is what I was saying. WWE letting the info of Lars leak out and then telling people about it didn't help them either for his character. Never been that impressed with the guy. Heard he's an incredible nice guy and all but I really haven't seen anything to all about him wrestling wise. He reminds me of another Snitsky 

 
RAW had their highest rating of the year Monday night but the Raw After Mania this year drew 25% less audience then last years did. 

 
ADA covers employees not WWE's "independent contractors" but he's not getting fired anytime soon unless it's for #### ups unrelated to his recent absence. 

WWE isn't going to do anything that would rock the boat with sponsors/shareholders. Also the same reason their product isn't going to change as long as they're doing well enough financially..........even if their TV programming is absolutely positively atrocious. Networks are still willing to pay an arm and a leg for it. Should be real interesting what happens with them on Fox. And to see if they remain on it....or relegated to FS1/etc... during the deal.

Honestly, he hasn't even looked great on those power slams.  He's not off to a good start, I agree on that.

I wasn't even impressed in NXT. Only reason Vince likes him is he gets a Woody for all the big guys like Boring Corbin and Braun The Teddy Bear but at least Braun has had a few impressive feats in terms of athleticism and speed for a big

I get it.  But apparently he's only 6'3??  Is that true?  So he's a monster that's not even going to be that big compared to Braun and others on the main roster.  He looked giant along side all the midgets* on the NXT roster.

*Talented midgets at that ;)

Regardless, it would be a horrible look for WWE to fire a guy over perceived mental issues.

I would agree VKM will do nothing unless he starts getting pushback from his broadcast overlords.

Put him in 205 

Playboy Buddy Rose’s gimmick would’ve been hilarious in 205

 
Paul Heyman with Lars Sullivan.

Break up The New Day.

Reigns to Smackdown to deal with Styles.

Samoa Joe to Raw.

Tone down the women.

Richocet a single.

Alistar Black a single.

Randy Orton to Raw to deal with Rollins.

Corbine back to his old self over on Smackdown.

Fixed it.

Very true.

I also think Crash Holly's "Super Heavyweight" gimmick would have been really funny. He could claim each week that he is just "way too heavy" to compete.

 
Dam There's rumor going around but yet to be confirmed so take with grain of salt. Sasha and Bailey were suppose to be in a handicap match vs Alexa and Bliss goes over. Sasha had a freak out that led to a backstage altercation and led to another performer being hurt in the altercation. WWE sent Sasha home early and are offering her assistance to get help.

Either way what is known so far is she Left RAW and has canceled appearances such as signings and Wendy Williams appearance. This isn't the first time she has had a break down. Her longest tile reign as Women's champ was 27 days which needed do to a backstage altercation. She's had a few incidents backstage before but nothing this bad. Everyone person I've talked to no story is straight and also theres a lot of BS wrestling rumors wise I've never seen so much BS. Its why some people are holding back on what they've heard on certain things because they aren't sure what is true or not right now

AJ vs Orton is opening the show. They switched Miz vs Shane from opening to the mid card match

I said this before Mania per wrestling inc

As noted earlier this week, Hogan had no idea why Paul Heyman was coming out to the ring to introduce the Universal Title match because Rollins vs. Lesnar being moved to the opening slot was a late change, made after Hogan was informed of his segment with Bliss earlier in the day. We also noted on WrestleMania Sunday afternoon that the latest run sheet had Styles vs. Orton being the opener. This new report confirms that the original plan was for Styles vs. Orton to open. PWInsider noted that Hogan was not the only one surprised by Heyman coming to the ring.

He thinks women should be in the kitchen cleaning and making him sammichies and grabbing him beers. Someone should tell him its 2019 and not 1960

100% wrong.

I'm big into track another sport where women compete right there with the men. The women just as exciting as the men.

I have been here all along just like you, so there is no 1960 thing other than I can talk the 60's and today.

We won't see this in the women.

Can't blame her for being upset. Former tag champs lose in a handicap match to a woman who has been considered their equal in the past AND has been out for some time. Seems ridiculous to me.

No absolutely not however like I said this is not Sasha first drama queen type reaction to not liking something. There's a theory going around when the Women's Evolution started in NXT before hitting the main roster Sasha Was The Legit Boss of the division. She apparently wasn't having these breakdowns in NXT. Suddenly they get to the Main roster and she's 2nd or 3rd fiddle behind Charlotte most nights and Paige (When she was healthy). Even when she was the Womens champ she had some sort of break down and WWE punished her by having her drop the title after 27 days. She's use to being the one on top and I think when she got to the main roster and was no longer in that big position. However theres no need to act like a brat about everything. There's also a few rumors she left for family issues but those are totally unconfirmed reports. 

We know she walked out, apparently out of frustration said she quit, had an altercation backstage both nights and Bailey was apparently involved, was suppose to lose a Handicap match to Alexa and canceled appearances and signings the last few days. Other then that no one knows anything else. There's also some stuff I heard from a former writer on a podcast that there's a writer on the main roster who's a big fan of Alexa Bliss and we should expect her to Geta big push when she got called up (This was when she was still in NXT) and it happened. Alexa had a rocket shoved on her during the brand split. That writer is still with WWE. SO I'm sure Sasha is upset over the politician backstage

As ya know she started out wrestling men in a carnival, had a 200=1 record, so who was the guy who beat her?  I don't know either.

5-2 138 pounds of dynamite.

Long time fan here Tom,  not trying to be some punk just prefer men in the rasslin' biz, no big deal. Way beyond....she's cute. Yes I've seen Penny Banner, The Fabulous One, also seen the midgets, I just  enjoy the bigger more athletic athletes.

 
So more Sasha news. I've also heard this from at least 4 different people as well

"So more news came out overnight about this situation. As of the morning of mania, boss n hug were retaining but when they got back from the access events script had changed in favor of the aussies. This got her mad and when she came to the gorilla she quit.. this is all confirmed. Also during the heated discussion with that producer, Triple h intervened and she was sent home right then and there. We’re told he was mad and didn’t wanted to deal with her “childish” behavior. She stormed out and apparently pushed Alexa Bliss hard to the black curtains that Cover the production and master control areas. Bailey intervened and separated them. Bailey also got pushed by Sasha and cursed out . Apparently Alexa has said to Sasha, “if you don’t like it just leave, there others behind you waiting for your spot so go." The scuffle apparently continued in a hotel lobby as well. who I asked who Sasha pushed and they said Bailey apparently but she was the”peacemaker” at first but became the instigator with Sasha after they left MetLife”

Ryan Satin who I can't stand did share bit more of the issues as well per tweets

Heard from a few sources now saying Sasha Banks and Bayley were laying on the floor of the locker room on Sunday, and back at the hotel in front of one of their rooms, loudly making it known they were unhappy about losing the tag titles.

This info is from four different sources I've spoken with the past day. All independent from each other and all came to me about it, not the other way around.

Satin was asked and tweeted 3 mins ago if Boss and Hug were mad in general they lost the belts or because of who they lost too. He tweets

In general. Sounds like they believe they were promised a meaningful run with the tag belts and it was cut too short.

Becky Lynch also direct tweeted Sasha "to fight her". I don't know if Becky is legit upset with her or if she's trying to get Sasha to stay. This is still a very developing story. There's a lot of stuff out there from different people right now. Some of it is fake or embellished by different sources as Sasha has made a few enemies on the main roster since coming up. It's why when the whole Jimmy Uso and Naomi having marital issues was brought up to me by someone who works there I had to check with others to confirm it as I wasn't sure if someone was trying to throw dirt on them or what. I then not only got they were having issues but believe Jimmy had cheated on Naomi very recently and that WWE was turning it into a storyline. A few weeks later they started the story of Mandy trying to get Jimmy to cheat on Naomi with  her. 

Sasha has now unfollowed Vince on Twitter.

So why no female wrestling in New Japan?

Cool story.

New Japan has no females because they choose to be male only? I don't know anything about that group except that Roman Reigns would waste anyone they got.

Mainly because there is already an esteemed tradition of women's pro wrestling in Japan called joshi puroresu. However, there have been critics recently calling for NJPW to hire joshi talent, not the least of which was Kenny Omega.

Joshi Puroresu folded in 2017. 

Never have got women in pro wrestling.

 
I got nothing for ya. Becky Lynch is the #1 merch seller for WWE and the trend ain't slowing.

You can get with the program or continue to give pithy one-liners on a fantasy football forum. If you're gonna bring that weak, close-minded type of opinion, at least have the decency to also bring 60-75% reliable news from your cousin Sal who sometimes works catering.

(Edit: joshi is still alive and well btw)

Saw Fabulous Moolah when she was still with The Elephant Boy.  Women in pro wrestling  goes way back,  did you really say...."get with the program?"

Close minded....????  How about simply prefer the more talented pro wrestlers?
