    No. These are the brand new owners who took control of the club in July I believe.

    Lufisto in WWE

    Does not mean that she got into the company legally. If she wants a job with the WWE she cannot have those types of flags in her profile since WWE would have to do a whole lot of paperwork for them to get her a visa/green card for permanent residence.

    Lufisto in WWE

    I'd be more concerned with her being able to get into America than her age. Since I know she has been caught at the border without a work visa at least once.

    Guidolin got the axe at Swansea. Replaced by former US international manager Bob Bradley. Sure Swans had a rough start but Guidolin was going to get dropped one way or another since the new owners did not want him in the first place.

    Kevin Thorn talks WWE salaries

    Still does. He and business partner Scott Everhart run a real estate investment company. They invest in house construction and then sell for profit. Here's a building they built in Loveland, Colorado as an example: Kane runs a insurance company with his wife for another example.

    Roman Reigns, why?

    Because he was never the favorite of the "universe"/fans. Sure he was over and popular, but he was not the universally beloved guy. But he's the guy Vince McMahon wants because he is a big, muscular guy with cross over appeal. Him being related to the Rock doesn't hurt either. Fans can sense...

    Kevin Thorn talks WWE salaries

    It's about right for what a lower card guy makes in WWE. Daniel Bryan himself has said that until he got an actual push he actually lost money by going to the WWE, since he made more as an independent guy running his own schedule. Once you get a push and earn stakes in your merchandise if you...

    WWE to buy TNA for "Network Exclusive"

    Here is a much more up to date and very well researched piece on WWE's business. Which points out that WWE is in no risk of losing money on the TV deal since it is one of the strongest forces on TV, and whilst pointing out that the network is not a rousing success is still a major income source...

    WWE to buy TNA for "Network Exclusive"

    Those numbers are two years out of date regarding the network. The network is a big money maker for them. As in it is at least 20% of the yearly revenue. And the ratings are always down when football season starts. This is nothing new. They pick up in January and go down in September again...

    WWE to buy TNA for "Network Exclusive"

    No they won't. Every time WWE has re-negotiated their TV deals with USA since going back there, they always get more money. Always. The USA network loves them. They are a bonafide ratings success. USA are not going to risk Vince jumping to another network by lowballing him.

    Enzo and Cass

    The main problem is how main roster (or at least for now, RAW) handles characters. On NXT they were three dimensional characters, people with flaws, perks, personalities and motivations. In short they were human and you could relate to them. On RAW they have become 2 dimensional midcarders...

    Money needed for BFG

    I think the rebranding has to be long term investment. Corgan and whoever he gets to help back has to be willing to take at least 2-3 years of losses before making money.

    Money needed for BFG

    Billy can fund the next set of tapings. But he wants more ownership in TNA (majority ownership, he wants the company) in return. Because he doesn't want to sit around and just churn money into a company that's not making money for eternity. He wants to buy it and overturn it to make it at leasy...

    Cody Rhodes reportedly going to TNA soon

    I disagree on it not being fixable. It is. It will take time and a long term investment of money and effort. But it can be done. And Corgan has put together a team that is ready willing and able. I say give them a shot to make it work. The more places to work that goes out of business, the...
