A bit of a tangent but I'm reminded when Konnan had the idea of doing weekly shows aimed at tourists around Cozumel I think it was. I thought and still think that's a great idea and there's money to be made there, but it was so half assed and inconsistent that everyone knew it was a failure before it even started
Konnan is the reverse Midas, everything he touches turns to shit

Good idea on paper, very bad execution.

Honestly, that sounds like he learned the "art of booking" while being under contract with WCW and decided for himself that it's not possible for any human being to learn more about booking than one specific style.

I listened to that Video this early Morning and it made me chuckle hearing Disco trying to create Storylines already. I find it funny though Konnan talking about who he's worked with terms of Booking. Brother I can train for ten years with a prime Michael Jordan that doesn't mean I'm going to be a percent as good as him.

Rey Mysterio opened last night's AAA show with a video package that showed Penta and Fenix as well

He was already fired from AAA after WWE took over. Can we please not just post from any Joe Schmo that says something on the internet?

Was he?

I know supposedly he was added to the alumni section on the wwe website (I can't get it to load to see) and I don't remember any reports on him being released. Not saying you're wrong, just don't remember seeing it.

1. Looks like the report I saw was wrong about him being fired my apologies

2. This sight for years has had a policy about posting from reputable sights

3. If it’s true then yes that’s gross

4. Jeff, don’t talk like that to me again, I treat your opinions with respect, we’ve moved passed the being shitty to each other phase

Anyway my apologies that I misspoke on something, I should have double checked before. And just become I’m not doom posting doesn’t mean I don’t think a lot of this shit is fucking wack.

The La Hiedra signing is fucked up also, and I'm sure Stephanie Vaquer can't be happy with that one.
