  1. Possible Mania Match for The Ultimate Warrior

    Being a dirt sheet thing, no idea how legitimate that is. Kinda thinking not at all. Could be something floated out there anonymously by someone like Ryback himself to stir up interest in a Wrestlemania match for himself. As it is, it's doubtful the WWE would care to book him for the event...
  2. Spoiler - New Type of Hall of Fame Induction

    Weird, but an interesting concept that would allow them to keep bringing back HBK, Bret, Hogan, Horsemen, or anyone else that cares to make another free appearance. In the end, the Hall of Fame is a work, but that's cool, the business is a work too. It's about promotion of the company and the...
  3. Kaitlyn Quits

    Hopefully Kaitlyn was able to use her time in the WWE to line up some opportunities. Most likely, this was going to be the end of her run anyhow. They really aren't into developing women as wrestlers. It's a series of new p****, the WWE loving the fuck out of them at first, then eventually...
  4. WWE to Air Chris Benoit Footage on the WWE Network with Advisory Note

    Can that be scrolled across the bottom of the screen for the entirety of the match as well?
  5. WWE TV Deals Shopped Together For First Time Ever

    The big problem WWE will have in marketing all of WWE programming as a single package, then comparing its programming value to Nascar, NBA, etc is that those sports franchises are split up. Nascar is so expensive and runs so long through the year that no single network runs the entire season...
  6. Wrestlemania 31 will be held...

    The interactivity will be just fine. They're not going to have fans booking shit, and generally the WWE is pretty good at manipulating their audience towards the desired result. Besides, in the end, all the choices being offered are those that the WWE is willing to book. In the end, it...
  7. WWE teaching Stars & Divas not to sell their loss

    Hard news based on observations of a woman that's not just green as hell, but supposedly trolled backstage in ways to sabotage her on camera. Even if it were true about the divas being coached on that, it's still just a diva match. Not so sure I'd believe that when it comes to the boys...
  8. Sheamus Pushing For Undertaker At WrestleMania

    I'd love to see Sheamus booked against Undertaker at Wrestlemania. Provided that Taker is healthy enough to work his style of match and the two can gel decently in the ring, it wouldn't matter if Sheamus lost. Put on a match that excites the audience, they remember you for how good you looked...
  9. Scott Hall and Jake Roberts screw fans over?

    Yeah, ha! You sure showed me! Sober since entering the Accountability House. Only don't count the time less than six months ago when DDP and his people released those videos documenting Jake Roberts having a relapse with alcohol at the time. Jesus Christ, you like taking shit serious or...
  10. Scott Hall and Jake Roberts screw fans over?

    Nope. It would require thinking either of them would put down the jug of wine long enough to read anything besides a prescription bottle.
  11. Scott Hall and Jake Roberts screw fans over?

    I sent cards to both that said "Get a fucking job, bitch." Was that uncharitable of me?
  12. Report: Ryback Likely for a Babyface Turn

    Ryback isn't over enough these days for the WWE to have any real Wrestlemania plans for him unless they're big on getting Kofi Kingston over. Who knows if he's "in line" for much of anything. The WWE has to figure out what to do with the character. If there are issues with his development...
  13. Changes Made to WWE Wellness Policy

    There's a difference, like you said, between drunk and hung over. It's all in how their policy wishes to define a positive test. If the tests are set up to determine whether someone had a lot of drinks in the last 24 hours, even if they're not showing up to work buzzed or drunk, most of the...
  14. Changes Made to WWE Wellness Policy

    Considering the nature of their work, the danger being that a screw up could injure another worker, it's reasonable they screen to make sure wrestlers aren't coming to the job site drunk or even buzzed. Kinda tough to judge how that part of their testing is actually worked, ie what blood...
  15. Benoit’s Son Possibly Training To Be A Wrestler

    Not entirely sure how it would go over really. I do agree that you're likely to see some troll internet mark chants from fans who do it for the lolz. But oddly enough, I think there would be a lot of interwebs marks that would accept him to a certain degree or not care. there have long been...
  16. Larry Zbyszko rips Sting

    Sting didn't seem to be known for being a ring general, but that doesn't define whether someone can work well. Dude was athletic and seemed able to work with the style of whoever was in the ring. Sting's role really wasn't ever going to be the long term, cash cow. His talent was being a part...
  17. Who Was Originally Chose For Batista's Role In Evolution?

    Big Dave has a certain "it" factor that isn't something you can just manufacture. Any big guy out there could be pegged for the big guy enforcer in that type of group, but I think the momentum would have ultimately done much more for Big Dave than Jindrak. Whatever it was they were hoping to...
  18. Former WWE Women's Champion Calls Out AJ Lee

    Whatever Madusa is doing, funny stuff. I wonder if she's looking to take indy bookings or hoping to get asked to do some shoot interviews or wrestling convention signings. As far as AJ getting a tattoo, I could see why some would roll their eyes at it. But at the same time, it's not like a...
  19. WWE Interested In NJPW Stars & Tensai's Japan Salary

    Who knows if Tensai really makes that kind of money. If he does, it made sense to offer it when they did. The plan seemed to be to establish him as a singles wrestler that might play a part in the main event scene a few times, but most likely they wanted a decent hand to help get over younger...
  20. Report: Former WWE Diva Returning?

    I could see her on the road for a few weeks to get her timing back and back into ring shape, maybe. Perhaps part time, then doing more house shows if they ever put the title on her for a couple weeks. Most likely, I don't see her on the road much due to being a Diva. Not like house show...
