    LaVar and Lonzo Ball To Appear On Raw

    Basketball is not popular at all in Europe at large. It has its spikes in certain countries (Lithuania, Italy, a few of the Balkan countries) and in parts of others (certain parts of Spain, Stockholm). But it is basically relegated to phys ed in most European countries and rarely gets TV coverage

    I have no idea who these nobodies are and I bet most people outside of the United States feel the same way

    Chris Benoit - 10 Years Later

    He didn't just try it. It was his entrance for about a year at least.

    Chris Benoit - 10 Years Later

    Because, as Billc said. Hell is for people who know that they sin, or at least are of sound mind. For most it is pretty clear that Chris was neither of those at the time of the tragedy so him ending up in "hell" is questionable. If one chooses to believe in hell that is

    Paige & Alberto (on-going thread)

    It's kinda hilarious that it is Alberto's family that is relieved that they broke up because she was a "bad influence on him" and not the other way around.

    Chris Benoit - 10 Years Later

    They were basically going to Sting lower him. But the harness got loose and he fell 78 feet, hitting the ring ropes dead on at peak velocity. Not the best way to go

    Chris Benoit - 10 Years Later

    Owen Hart died way earlier than Chris if that is what you mean. And Owen's death was a freak accident (he was supposed to rappel down to the ring from the rafters in a safety harness but the harness snapped and he crushed his ribcage against the ringropes for those of you who don't know.) So...

    Chris Benoit - 10 Years Later

    bruh I did not bring religion into this. The Benoit case helped kickstart the brain damage in sports movement. Former WWE wrestler Chris Nowinzki is very involved in this .

    Chris Benoit - 10 Years Later

    A fairly good comparison from popular culture is Dr Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. All the shit Chris went through likely caused him to suffer some form of psychosis during which he didn't know what he was doing. Doesn't absolve him of the crime, but helps explain it most likely.

    Chris Benoit - 10 Years Later

    Chris took a lot of hits to the head. Both unprotected punches, chairs, going through tables etc. And him using the diving headbutt and doing it unprotected didn't help. His brain was basically mashed potatoes at the end and as was pointed out earlier in this thread by Jacob, comparable to a 80+...

    Chris Benoit - 10 Years Later

    The final days of Benoit's life (probably the entire last 5-10 years of it tbf) were awful and how his life and the lives of his family ended is a tragedy. But it shouldn't be something we as fans, or the WWE as an entity, shy away from discussing. It's similar to the old saying of he who...

    WWE doesn't care about longterm storytelling?

    The last time WWE did proper longterm storytelling was the Daniel Bryan storyline leading into Wrestlemania 30, where they spent an entire year building the guy up basically. And the end result was one of the best Wrestlemania's of the modern day. Right now they "do" long term storytelling but...

    New Japan Pro-Wrestling General Discussion Thread

    The specials card to me says that either New Japan don't get what it is that is attracting western fans to their product (but at the same time how do they not know that?). Or they put a whole lot of faith in guys like Cody and Gunn putting extra eyes on the shows from the casual market. Despite...
