    WWE WWE Merchandise

    The Punk sweatshirts are quite good, at least they kept them simple. The Macho Man shirts are brilliant, great choice of colours. Bit surprised to see Kaitlyn get two new shirts, they aren't too bad either

    Production Costs for WWE Studio Projects Revealed

    It makes so much sense and that is why it is odd WWE have waited so long to make another horror film. Plus with the characters that they have in wrestling there are a few that would translate quite well into a horror film, just like Kane did.

    WWE RAW 5th August 2013 - LIVE Discussion - YES! Man to Company Man

    Corporate Bryan looked sharp, wondered why Barrett was out there but it made sense in the end. Del Rio losing another match as champion isn't the best, but it was to RVD and thanks to a distraction so it wasn't as bad as some others. At least now without Ricardo he can get proper heel heat...

    Production Costs for WWE Studio Projects Revealed

    Steven Seagal would be another to add to that list. With the cartoons they are co-producing them with Warner Bros and Hanna-Barbera plus animation is so much cheaper since you pay the actors so much less so they wont have to spend as much. Also depends on if they are going straight to DVD with...

    JBL's Big Announcement

    Well that was underwhelming, I assumed that he would already be in the game as a playable character anyway.

    WWE Television Ratings

    Another good rise for Smackdown, nice to see it getting around the 2.0 mark yet again. They have had some strong matches on there lately so hopefully that continues going forward, it is also nice seeing some different names on the show like Punk and RVD. What is a social media score? Do they...

    WWE Injury Thread

    I didn't realise you wanted the accent dropped as well. At this stage of his career he probably wouldn't want to risk it, as you said he would earn a decent amount from merchandise. He is setting himself up for life after wrestling already with his MMA/Wrestling gym that he recently set up.

    Dinner With ..

    You have put away the paper plates and put out your best crockery. You have laid the table rather than eating in front of the tv. You can invite five living people for dinner, who would you choose? For me I think I would go with (although if you asked me next month I would probably have a...

    2 Guns

    I am just saying that there is no real need for them to push their boundaries, some actors may really enjoy the one genre and may not be interested in trying out something different. Some may also know their limitations and know that they will fail if they stray too far from what they excel at.

    Production Costs for WWE Studio Projects Revealed

    It is better that they are now using WWE stars in supporting roles in the feature films that they co-produce. Nothing wrong with a wrestler headlining a straight to DVD release but for those theatrical releases they don't have enough star power, or ability, to carry those roles. Has anyone...

    BJ Whitmer suffers injury at ROH event

    It was interesting to read that Davey Richards was one of those that came to the ring to help after the incident since he is a trained EMT. I just don't know why anyone would risk it at this level, it may be a cool spot but when one slip up could paralyse you surely it isn't worth it. Not sure...

    BJ Whitmer suffers injury at ROH event

    Scary situation, no idea why guys are willing to take those bumps on shows like this. It just isn't worth it on a small show for a small payday. Thankfully he is improving and it is great that he will be released from hospital tonight. Whitmer is a class act though with that last tweet about...

    Production Costs for WWE Studio Projects Revealed

    May not be interesting to some but I think it is interesting to see how the direction of WWE Studio has changed. They have switched from $15 million budgets when they were aiming for wide release in theatres to much smaller budgets for their direct to DVD movies. This doesn't take into account...

    Box Office

    Not too bad for 2 Guns but with those two leads I thought it would start with over $30 million. Not really that much to look forward with Summer ending in the US, thankfully in Australia Pain & Gain and Now You See Me are out in the next couple of weeks so I can finally watch them
