All Elite Wrestling is official
Norwegian Rudo replied to Brian Fowler's topic in ALL ELITE WRESTLING
You literally just said they had to be getting a huge TV deal to "offset the costs". Are production costs somehow not a part of "the costs"? -

If they were getting a huge TV deal that's going to pay for everything, why would Khan need to invest $100 million? I have to say I'm skeptical of the TV rumours. Both because historically TV deal rumours are bullshit 99% of the time, and also because if they were so close as they're letting on I have to believe they would have waited to make the announcement until it was locked down. -
[NXT] DECEMBER 2018 NXT/NXT UK DISCUSSION
Norwegian Rudo replied to nofuture's topic in WWE PROGRAMMING
EC3 doesn't really fit in NXT, same as Chelsea Green isn't going to. Their strengths are character work and doing whatever's necessary to get a storyline over. That doesn't really work in NXT where in-ring is about 95% of what gets you over. Put him on RAW and he'll be fine. -
What scientists? UFC has said "world class scientists" told them, but not named any of them from what I have seen, which basically sounds like a Trump quote. As for "pulsing", please explain how after 18 months the result is actually HIGHER than it was originally? His original failure was 20-80 and now it's somehow 60?

Please, residual my ass. When even the NSAC is calling bullshit on them, you know UFC and USADA are truly fucking corrupt. Edit: UPDATE as of 6:05pm central time: Jones was tested three times by USADA in 2018. USADA is saying they can’t explain why these trace amounts didn’t show up until this latest one. They are claiming an “unknown natural” factor suppressed the steroid the first three test, but it somehow wasn’t able to suppress the trace amounts this fourt round of testing. (Coincidentally, this last round of tests happened around the time Jones thought he was exempt from the last testing pool).

I wouldn't use Bianca here. She has such star potential that she shouldn't be seen on the main roster until she is ready for a huge push.

I'm guessing she's taking time off to promote the movie. -
[NXT] DECEMBER 2018 NXT/NXT UK DISCUSSION
Norwegian Rudo replied to nofuture's topic in WWE PROGRAMMING
Ilja Dragunov is rumoured. He dropped a booking the same day as the NXTUK Takeover. Also some TNA guy I can't remember ever hearing of; Sam Shaw or something like that? -
2018 INDIE WRESTLING THREAD
Norwegian Rudo replied to RIPPA's topic in FEDS JUST TRYING TO MAKE A BUCK
I'm sure he will be the centerpiece of whatever NXT are doing in Germany as well. -
2018 INDIE WRESTLING THREAD
Norwegian Rudo replied to RIPPA's topic in FEDS JUST TRYING TO MAKE A BUCK
He has no interest in moving to the US. -
By pure coincidence I'm sure, this is two weeks before the WOS show in the same place.
-
If rumours about the recent German tryout are true we might get NXT UK and NXT Germany/Europe as a block when they run out of double episodes. Their Wednesday block on the network seems to be doing very well for them, surprisingly with 205 Live as the least watched show.

Doesn't she have messed up knees?
-
I wonder if they might give her a match on TV this week. You know Sasha would offer up her firstborn for the chance to wrestle Meiko...

NXT TAKEOVER: BROOKLYN IV - 8/18/2018
Norwegian Rudo replied to Dolfan in NYC's topic in WWE PROGRAMMING
Kind of weirded out by the complaints about kick-outs. It was like 25% of what you see on any indie show, and maybe 10% of a PWG show. -
I assume you're talking about Marcel? You don't really need to start worrying until he get's his new name. If he's still doing it then, he's in trouble.
-
Nah, another injury to her bad knee would have been worst case scenario.
-
Or, you know, they've got enough sense to block obvious trolls...
-
Makes sense. This way they can arrange the brackets better so the girls who got over/impressed the brass the most don't face each other in round 2.
-
She's always that I can remember been fairly slim. She's tall and imposing, not fat.
-
She presumably can't do basically any part of her act though, and her actual wrestling is mediocre at best (though improving).
-
It's still 30 matches taped in 2 days. Let's not set the expectations too high.
