  1. Paige Suspended for 60 Days

    My previous GP office would if texts had decent encryption. Can't speak for any specialists when it comes to private medical info like that. It's plausible, depending on the doctor. But that's a cropped screenshot that proves nothing.

  2. Paige Suspended for 60 Days

    Assuming they do pay for it at this point. I take these Meltzer stories with a grain of salt, but there seem to be rumors WWE's doctors won't sign off on neck surgery. Either way, it doesn't matter who is paying. Wrestlers probably sign a contract stipulating whatever rules the WWE wants...

  3. Paige Suspended for 60 Days

    WWE has a knack for moving on, especially now that their developmental program has progressed so much. But Paige definitely could have been a big contributor to the WWE's new youth movement. She's a decent hand and has some semblance of personality. She could have done her bit to help keep...

  4. WWE No Mercy 2016 Discussion Thread

    I hope they re-think including Naomi in the Women's title picture for now. The difference in facial expressions and selling at the end of the match couldn't be more disparate. Naomi had the expressions of a slug, despite being the character that just went over the #1 contender.

  5. WWE Backlash 2016 Discussion Thread

    I was surprised Nikki wasn't one of the final 2.

  6. WWE Backlash 2016 Discussion Thread

    And I can't get behind booking that gives us less Alexa Bliss

  7. WWE Backlash 2016 Discussion Thread

    I hate the logic behind Natalie selling after she ran in and powerbombed Carmella and the Bella broad.

  8. WWE Backlash 2016 Discussion Thread

    So many gimmicks on Naomi's entrance. Seems to be the way the WWe is going with these entrances, overdone.

  9. WWE Suspends Roman Reigns For Wellness Policy Violation

    It's not surprising that the WWE would protect their investment in Reigns. This triple threat match / angle where the Shield faces off is a big deal and something that may not happen again for a long time. If they really felt the need to punish Reigns, they still could once the match was...

  10. Cody Rhodes Says He Asked For WWE Release

    The WWE is so loaded with new talent that have been trained entirely by the WWE system, guys like Cody are even more expendable. Bit of a shame though because the guy does have a certain "it" factor that makes him entertaining with the right material. He also has a proven track record of...

  11. Spring cleaning

    And then comes news that Steve Lombardi was released. That's some deep spring cleaning.

  12. Network thoughts

    That's 1.8 million for Wrestlemania month this year. Third quarter 2015 had them at 1.3 million, end of 2015 had them at 1.23 million. Great revenue for the WWE in any of those cases. But compare the 1.8 million worldwide subscribers to a Feb. episode of Monday Raw that had 3.7 million...

  13. Network thoughts

    The only drawback I see there is the number of subscribers the network has. Would going 100% subscription based content prevent them from getting as many new mainstream fans as they would by having some content on one of the biggest cable networks? They seem to have hit the number of...

  14. Network thoughts

    The option to take all programming to the network is certainly a very real and probably an effective bargaining chip for tv contract negotiations. Depending on how much the nature of TV changes in North America, I think the WWE will always have a strong interest in keeping some sort of free...

  15. G.O.A.T stats

    Trips was also a heel for most of his run. The top babyface rarely loses, that's just tradition. Heels don't work the same way.

  16. Christian done with WWE?

    There was little choice in that situation. They seemed interested in getting Christian into some good programs when he came back, but those constant injuries derailed his runs from gaining any real traction. It's one of those unfortunate realities with rasslin'. Between working for years...

  17. Rey Mysterio talks WWE

    So of this business is such a work, I really don't know how poorly that went over with Vince. But let's put it this way, Vince has always been willing to do business with people who have done far worse. If it's a good business deal, and your name isn't Randy, I think Vince has an open mind...

  18. Monday Night Raw 4/27: Discussion Thread

    And shows the WWE still has a decent idea how to promote if they can influence a crowd to vote their way. Kinda glad that overall, they trump the smarks.

  19. WWE AJ Lee Retires

    Not at all surprised she left, I'm more surprised she lasted this long. How long do you expect someone to keep working for a company suing their spouse? It's just part of the animosity between Punk and the WWE, so it shouldn't be surprising that AJ Lee would eventually remove herself once...

  20. WWE Hall Of Fame: Class of 2015 Discussion *SPOILER*

    Whose call was it?
