Kalisto getting on the lars bashing

I really hope one day wwe and ajpw come together.

I must get walter, keith lee, and chad gable in a champions carnival

There were a lot of different reasons besides her being a cunt.

The two biggest things were:

While she was working with NXT, remember the key word with not for, NXT she was still allowed to work Indy dates. She told Indy bookers that she was signed to NXT so she deserved more money since she was giving that Indy more exposure. Spoiler: She wasn’t signed. She was on a paid by appearance handshake agreement.

She also pulled a Gerald Brisco by selling NXT merch at Indy shows, at a mark up, without WWE’s permission.

Why the fuck would aew be hiring her then? Sounds like a shit show. Not that hot either.

Alicia Atout and Kenny got something going

Don’t know. :woman_shrugging:t3:

Just look at this sequence by Riddle and be happy

Congrats to Jon…

The only thing I don’t want want Jon to do is have a Switchblade Conspiracy reunion with Sami Callihan. Callihan is the living embodiment of a sack of shit. I use to be a huge fan of his when he got signed to EVOLVE and DGUSA.

Why do they need a coach when according to the internet every signee they get is one the best in the world?

It’s “Unlisted”

Geese_Pants is the WWE mole?

An unlisted video is a different type of private video. " Unlisted " means that only people who know the link to the video can view it (such as friends or family to whom you send the link). An unlisted video will not appear in any of YouTube’s public spaces (such as search results, your channel, or the Browse page).

Becky Lynch called out Sasha Banks in this interview. Saying she fell from Grace and can’t hack it anymore

It would be a ton of fun if those guys weren’t dressed in business suits and FML.

All of those wacky ass backgrounds but none of them coming from wrestling. Sigh. Not gonna go into a tirade about all the stuff that should go in there but w/e.

Mauro reportedly signed a new deal with WWE…he’ll stay lead commentator for NXT.

I personally am good with that.

There have been a lot of creative members that have came from wrestling. Jimmy Jacobs, Archibald Peck (RD Evans), uh, I can’t remember his name but Great Khali’s manager, Road Dog was head booker for Smackdown. There are a few others as well I know I’m forgetting. Most of the “from wrestling” behind the scene talent are producers.

WWE generally wants people who can write “TV shows involving wrestling” rather than “A TV show about wrestling”. They usually hire former soap opera directors/writers and reality TV show directors. People in those general wheel houses.

While I get where they’re coming from it’s also exceedingly stupid.

Also NXT and WWE Creative Teams are like night and day due to most the trainers and match producers from the Performance center are actually apart of the creative process in NXT since they know the strengths, weaknesses and appeals of the talent more than anyone since they deal with them every day. While some of WWE creative usually has very little interaction with the talent unless they’re specifically told to.

Lemme explain: There are also 2 creative teams. Home base creative and road show creative. Home base creative all work out of Titan Towers in Connecticut. Road Team travels with the roster and generally books house shows, over seas tours and help edit what they’re allowed to edit from home base creative then relay to the talent.

Up until probably…mid ruthless aggression era creative was only a handful of people. In the 80’s the creative was literally just Vince and Pat Patterson. During Attitude Era it was Vince, Russo and Ferrara. Ruthless aggression era it was iirc Court Bauer, Heyman, Bryan Alvarez and a few others.

Now the creative team is like 20+ for each brand. Which sucks because it use to be a handful of people with a single vision. Now it’s dozens of people all with their own vision, while isn’t bad necessarily it’s proven to be a complete cluster fuck.


The Queen is COMING…

She’s been with the company for almost 5 years now. Still sucks. Still a jobber. And a racist.

She claims everything that was posted wasn’t her doing but that was debunked pretty much immediately.

Btw, r/WrestleWithThePlot is a very fucked up and creepy subreddit. I didn’t realize that link was from that subreddit until now. I wouldn’t delve into it. It’s Million territory turned up to 11

Aaliyah was a teenager then

There is a difference.

Also she is pretty ok. On the same level as billy and peyton. The only women who i consider great in ring in wwe is charlotte, io, kairi, asuka. Becky, ronda, and natalya are good. While average is bayley, sasha, alexa, naomi, and ember.

Everybody else…still green

Wwe writers can be good

I would be all up in kayla

WCW 2020…

It’s not the same. AEW isn’t going to try to directly compete.

They have a niche

I hope aew succeeds
