FWIW, I've known a couple collegiate gymnasts and they were surprisingly strong. My sister-in-law competed in gymnastics and track-and-field in school. Her out-of-competition workout program was extremely intense. Basically trained like a crossfitter before Crossfit was a thing.
Also, Jessica Woynilko/Tiffany Stratton has competed in bodybuilding competitions and has some MMA experience, so she probably fits the WWE mold more than the elite gymnast stereotype.
That's right, they said that about the bodybuilding! But yeah, gymnasts are hell of an athletes, so I'm not doubting her strength at all, I was just a bit surprised at her general style of wrestling.

Haha he didn’t use the brand term “Legends Deal”.
Did he sign a "Legends Deal" back when he got into the HOF, then soon after shat on WWE (and the deal) and tried selling or auctioning off the HOF ring? Maybe he's trying to keep his narrative in line and act as if this deal is more suitable for him, by calling it a different name? Who knows with this guy? He's up there with Warrior, Foley and Flair as far as falling in and out of love with Vince.

I'm kind of shocked that we live in (wrestling) world where there are people who are not familiar with Mercedes Martinez, but of course, I had never even heard her name before the first Mae Young Classic and she was an 18-20(?) year veteran at that point. So yeah.

Yeah, not much to report at all. Yesterday I did short resistance band exercise along with a few sets of push-ups (had to be more than 100 overall). Then I went to town on a 1.3 lb rare flank steak and a large baked sweet potato (split into two separate meals, though). This morning, I weighed in at 190. Today, I'm fixing to go for a 90(ish) minute walk, but there will be food and drinks at my destination, so that number is not going down, and I'm fine with that.
While I have rested a great deal over the holidays, my quality of sleep at nights has been terrible for the most part. Well, I've had naps during the day, but it is rather obvious that my body requires clean living in order to get the rest it needs and right now I'm definitely NOT giving it that! But hey, that's what the beginning of a new year is for. The rest that I'm giving myself is mostly mental, at this point. Trying to get my stress levels down to a minimum, before starting again. I hope everyone contributing to this thread (and everyone else, for that matter) has had the chance to do the same.
Oh, and btw, I got a whole box of protein bars and a bunch of creatine from my friend for Christmas, so I'll be well prepared with extra snacks at work in January and will be fine for creatine until the spring, at least.

This doesn't quite work when Jade was the one stealing Raquel's pinfall.
Ok, I can see how you would think that, but Jade has had every bit of her success so far by taking advantage of a lucky opportunity presenting itself. She's young and hungry, trying to make a name for herself, she'll take any opportunity she can get. If this was a 4-way match, then sure, but she was just trying to win for her team. She may have been a bit inconsiderate here, but I'm sure it was a heat of the moment thing and her heart was in the right place. Not that Raquel will buy that for a second, though.

Raquel breaking up a pin that would have guaranteed her a title match next week because Cora Jade was stealing 'her' win is one of the stupider things I've seen on a wrestling show in a while, though to be fair, I have stopped watching Raw and most Smackdowns.
She proved both Dakota Kai and Mandy Rose right on that one! Dakota was warning Jade that Raquel was only leeching on Jade's recent success in order to take all the glory! Raquel was like "Um, no, bitch!" And yet, here she was, exposing her true colors! Not a good look on her. If it leads to '96 Diesel-ish heel turn for her, then it will be all good, however.
Stratton seems like a weird mix of Lacey Evans, Ivy Nyle and Franky Monet. For a gymnast, she showed quite a bit of raw strength, not so much flipping, as I would have expected. Well, she's supposed to be a heel, so I guess that is just as well.

Never heard of that match yet now have a strange urge to see it...
Yeah, well if AJ could do for Omos what Candido did for Khali that day, then I guess it would be as good as it could get with those two. Great effort by Candido.

CM Punk vs Alberto Del Rio in the Octagon to unify the WWE/AEW/AAA/CMLL titles, who are you picking?
Octagon. No, wait he wasn't one of the options. A double knock out, then.

Oh, how I wish that was real. But that was edited in though seemed pretty convincing at times.
The editing was much smoother than the Weird Al interviews, but the total insanity of Musk's answers, even if he would have been trolling, had me thinking "There's no way this really happened, right? RIGHT?"

Have Cole and O'Reilly patched things up in a promo or a skit, to tie up the end of their previous employer's story, yet? Seems like a thing they would/should acknowledge, because AEW is good at storytelling that pays off.

Is this real, or is Musk troll-lol-lolling Bernie on purpose, or is he certifiably, clinically insane? Did somebody just edit Musk's answers in, out of context, like in those Weird Al skits? I found this deeply, deeply disturbing.

I read that Omos/AJ was pulled from RAW because management wasn't happy with their match on the MSG show.
I honestly don't know what level of a match they can have together, at this point, but I don't know what the hell was the management expecting out of them, realistically? The re-enactment of Chris Candido vs The Great Khali from Japan would be the best-case scenario, I suppose?

Yeah, I don't even know what a Brood-like substance would be, but apparently something black.

"Do you guys ever go on strike?" "No way, man! Never"
Too bad the clip ended before Macho was able to explain to the kid that "We don't have a union, so we couldn't really 'go on strike' if we wanted to!" but that's a whole another story.

Wait, Electra Lopez faces Io? Yeah. That's like an OK deal with me!

I didn't think they were terrible while they were happening, but you may all pity me for watching Sabu-Sandman at November to Remember 97 and Sid-Nightstalker at the Clash in Jacksonville.
Speaking of that Sid vs Bryan Clarke match, if they would have had a rematch somewhere around '95 to '98, it would have had a potential to be a half decent big man match.

HOOK's hair clearly saves him from head drops. You guys are out of the loop.
Is it magical or does he use so much different hair products on it that it's like a cushion or a crash helmet?

Hope everyone is safe and having a good time. The abrupt and heavy snow fall gave us a few anxious moments on the road back home yesterday and our yard looked like we had been gone a month. I'm about to go out and continue and shovel and plow some more. Luckily this snow is about as light as it gets, since it's still somewhat cold outside.

This is so true. I concur, wholeheartedly. Same here.
