    WWE announces 2 day tournament to crown UK Champion

    Triple H has said in an interview that the end goal is a weekly show, which I assume will have the title at its center. How far away this end goal is who knows

    WWE announces 2 day tournament to crown UK Champion

    That's what is being said by the office. Completely different thing what is actually being said to talent. These deals mean that WWE gets to say yes or no to where these guys work when they take non WWE bookings it seems. If WWE feels nice, that means they can work just about anywhere. If WWE...

    WWE announces 2 day tournament to crown UK Champion

    I would worry less about Japan and Mexico. Scenes there are older and stronger than the UK. And theres also pretty big language barriers that WWE have to consider worth bridging. Especially in Japan. And the Japanese loyalty thing

    WWE announces 2 day tournament to crown UK Champion

    Considering there are British talent on both brands it would be a clusterfuck to determine which brand would get the belt. Granted there are cruisers on both brands and that did not stop Stephanie from pulling a TV bitch move and taking the title to RAW.

    WWE announces 2 day tournament to crown UK Champion

    I have literally no idea. They have announced nothing about the future of the title so far. For all we know it could just as well end up being just a tournament title. Like the tournament becomes a yearly thing to crown the UK champion. Or it could end up on Smackdown or RAW just as well. EDIT...

    WWE announces 2 day tournament to crown UK Champion

    Its a network special. Airs worldwide. WWE are going to keep running WWE as usual. But this is a response to ITV funding a reboot to world of sports wrestling as a new years special and thinking of making it a weekly show. So WWE is swooping in to fight off competition. These guys have been...

    All Japan - The House Baba built

    Seems like the AJ Phoenix project is ending with the next show. AJ Phoenix, for those uninformed. Is All Japan's rookie shows, smaller shows run once every other month in co-operation with Big Japan, with focusing being on the younger talent. All Japan announced today that they will stop...

    WWE announces 2 day tournament to crown UK Champion

    WWE.com Good grief. They are actually going after a global monopoly. The following talent are announced: Pete Dunne, Trent Seven, Tyler Bate, Wolfgang and Jordan Devlin. Real shitty that these guys accepted the low paying guarantee deals which will mean they don't work mainstream WWE shows...

    What is one thing you would change for this year in WWE?

    This was something I pointed out was going to happen the moment he won the belt but as good as everyone shot me down and said I was wrong. Good grief Kevin is being treated like a shit champ. The curse of not being a McMahon

    What is one thing you would change for this year in WWE?

    Start booking their TV longterm rather than week to week

    Should NXT get a Midcard Title?

    I don't really agree on that training people takes a lot of time. Standard time for wrestling training by mosts professionally run schools is between 9 months and a year. Top notch schools like New Japan can churn out talent in six month intervals. With the resources WWE has there's really no...

    Wrestling Challenge 2017

    Misawa has 26 five star matches awarded to him by Meltzer. Any of those should do. A good jump on point I would believe is his match with Jumbo Tsuruta from 1990. The new top star vs the old top star. Rumor has it Jumbo was suppossed to win but they heard how over Misawa was before the show...

    Should NXT get a Midcard Title?

    Bailey and Sasha also spent years on the independents before. Charlotte is the only pure WWE product out of them. At the moment the only pure WWE products on NXT TV are the authors of pain, Knight and Dosjevic and Liv Morgan. The PC has roughly 150 people there now. Majority of these people...

    Its odd but I have almost no hype for WrestleKingdom. Maybe I am burned out on New Japan right now or something. Its definitely not as hyped up with me as previous years

    From Cryme Tyme to Stopping Crime

    What's the deal with mid 00-s midcarders having a affinity for stopping crime? Daivari took out a violent drunk on a train, Masters saved his mom from arson by pulling a tree out of the ground and throwing it through the window, and now this. If Vince ever wants a Citizens on Patrol faction...

    Should NXT get a Midcard Title?

    I'd much rather WWE get their shit together and start actually producing talent worth putting on TV regularly in their performance center rather than depending on independent or international talent. The PC's track record is staggeringly bad. For every Dosjevic that makes TV and gets over there...
