Yes, nxt having a good show is much crazier than a murder/suicide involving a legendary wrestler.Here, lemme give this a go for you:This has to be the craziest 30 days stretch in memory, that we don't try to actively ignore. There you go. Thank you. I just thought the post was silly considering the shock of that a short seven years ago. Did anything else happen that month? I think it is very clear Matt meant shit that actually happened in wrestling. Not some guy murdering his family. I know when I think of memorable wrestling stories my brain does not go to "Oh yeah that guy murdering his wife and kid. Good times." I swear I'm in bizarro world around here. I didn't say it was "good times", and almost every single thing the guy mentioned did not happen in the ring (doing a podcast?????). Are you that immature that you can't even think of a horrible act and put it in perspective?He said it was the craziest month in memory in wrestling. Unless his memory only goes back six years, I can think of a much more crazy one. I'm not sure what happened to this website, it seems to have changed for the worse quickly and become an offshoot of the horrible wreddit group. Most of the good posters that want to discuss wrestling, not fantasy book (you are all horrible bookers) and have some credibility have left. I am not the only person that has said it. All that is left are you messes, copying links, pics and ideas from elsewhere, horrible. Good luck.

Yes, 2007 would not be considered recent memory. "This is the craziest thirty days in the past six years of wrestling".

One of the things that I like about NXT is that it seems to be in a silo with a ton of old school influences like Dusty/Regal/Smiley/Brisco involved. Some of the characters stink and the promos shaky, but the overall gameplan is build star, build feud, blow off, on to next feud. It's all interwoven with a small roster. Feels Crocketty. Staying away from Stephanie's team of sitcom writers, the Scooby Doo crap, the egos/politics, seems to work for it. One caveat, I think it's a terrible idea for it to be pushed as a third "brand" and heavily advertised. If the model is train in NXT, go to main roster when ready with a character that feels like a debuting star, you are killing that mystique and overexposing people to a work in progress.

The notion from a few pages back that Triple H embraces nerd culture is silly to me. Is it because he has an open checkbook from Vince to hire indy guys that their scouts find? The dude is constantly tweeting himself on fitness magazines, pretty much the antithesis of the pale basement dwellers. He doesn't even book NXT. Another IWC fairytale. And, besides some dirtsheet speculation (not Meltz), where did anyone say this New Day faction was supposed to be gamers? This was the plan all along, from Big E's preacher-esque promo months earlier to Xavier coming out to ringside to save them. WWE went to the lowest common denominator for their black wrestlers as usual. It's a step above Cryme Time.

Watching ROH...I'd take the Young Bucks and ACH over any of the generics with zero charisma being shipped up north by NXT.

Yes, they won't honor him in the picture thread because of you.

Positives: not as beat up as the traditional aging mma palooka, can afford best training and methods possible Negatives: 36 years old, prior training rivals kiddie karate class, will compete with Diaz brothers for skinny fat title It's fascinating, but he would be punished by middleweights like Herman or Dollaway, much less Weidman or Silva.

Good for Punk and UFC. Their numbers have been on the rapid decline due to lack of healthy stars, and Punk wants to parlay his career of being a fake shoot fighter into a real one. One tomato can to build up some interest, then a couple of real fights where he gets slaughtered. It's big money.

Going to chikara tomorrow night. Anyone else heading to philadelphia? Will be my wife's first non-WWE PPV card. Expect her to be thoroughly confused and my explanation regarding the Ants and the Eye of Tyr to make me question my fandom again.

Meltz reporting Mysterio is going to get a very lucrative contract to come back and wrestle a full-time schedule. Mysterio's ACL/MCL, wrist and ribs declined comment.

From someone who was around "Taz" and "Raven" in a social setting at least twice, they were Pete and Scott.

Just to prove I'm not Cornette, I do enjoy Kevin Steen, wondering if they will let him have a personality and legitimate chance to stand out and not be generic former indy star number 4. Certainly won't be using the package piledriver.

I just think these guys are all just shades of mediocre. Nothing Sandow/Miz/Barrett does will ever make them stand out...no distinguishable skills in the ring or on the mic. At least Wyatt has some charisma and connects with people, the ring work is another story. Riley as NXT commentator is good, Riley as preshow commentator is not.

Del Rio, a disgruntled former employee, said it? Well, that sounds like enough evidence for me!Just keep digging that hole deeper, buddy. But I'm sorry Gabe didn't book your buddy. Digging a hole deeper? You're a strange character using the word "transphobic". Your triple h love is admirable however. In any event, no, Gabe worked with a friend of mine from high school. Nothing to do with booking, had to do with some shady business practices. He's a shithead.

Transphobic??? My lord. Her female parts put Alex Wright's to shame. I called her loyal as I actually think Chyna got a bad deal. And is the racist tag so unheard of here? DelRio and at least two of the other Hispanic wrestlers have thrown this out there, plus Mark Henry's interview. The guy just comes across as a pompous, jealous jerk. The Punk podcast sealed it for me. I actually have a personal reason for Gabe related to a friend of mine, so the randomness is understand.

Is it really considered a reduction if it's going down a size in the original enhancement?

Yes, middle of the road, middle of the road. At this point, I can say I dislike Triple H more than anyone in the industry outside of Gabe Sapolsky. He's a self-serving racist who dumped his loyal she male for the boss' daughter.

Yes, it's hard to know you are a sad sack who likes the Niners while living in Connecticut.Hold on, before I answer... how would you feel if I was a Dolphin Fan living in NYC? I'd have more respect for you as the Dolphins haven't won since long before I was born and you are probably a frontrunner. For a team full of drunks and wife beaters. With a Michigan guy who condones it as coach.

So he's 29, not 30. Married to a hot girl. Stuck in the midcard and losing enough sleep that he has to tweet about an indy wrestler podcast. He could be more pathetic and like the 49ers while living in Connecticut, but at least he has the last name to keep him employed.

Colt's podcast has more listeners than anyone who has ever bought a ticket or tuned into Raw to specifically see Cody Rhodes. That has to eat at him. What's he like 30 something now? Window is closing.

MOST tables are indeed precut or gimmicked in some way, and the commentary table is gimmicked when someone is going to go through it. I have no idea about that particular table, but it sure looks as if Ryback didn't powerbomb him the right direction.

The SEC would only really have cause to investigate if WWE put out blatantly false information in the public filings (such as the 10K or Q which are audited by a public accounting firm). The rules are much murkier in regards to analyst calls (especially about employment status semantics with regards to someone who is not in a decision making capacity in the company). I'd be more concerned that if they pursued this further, the old "independent contractor" issue could become a large class action lawsuit or legitimate attempt to unionize. Probably why they paid the royalty checks and wanted this to go far away.
