Yes, he was both fat and also refused to get in shape. Two reasons.

We need to just categorize all these things into their own threads. We could have a "Oh, what a nice breeze." one.

There we go. Freaking Sombra. Thanks. It's a great little dick heel move now though.

That's a bit more of an "Oh, darn."

So wait - they fired him because he wouldn't do the Ice Bucket Challenge to raise awareness of ALS? From 2004: "RVD has a lot of heat on him right now from WWE management because he did not go on the tour to Iraq. Management told wrestlers that the tour was optional, but in reality it wasn't since Vince McMahon expected every wrestler to go. Luther Reigns also did not want to go but ended up going once he found out that Vince would not be happy if he didn't. WWE management apparently tried to intimidate RVD into going, but RVD held firm." -The Internet

I don't think it's Kota Ibushi. I'm not sure what a Kota Ibushi is.

Tossing these indy guys into development is part to get rid of all their litany of bad habits and part to make sure they're willing to be part of the system and play the game and listen to instruction.

Who is it that I've been watching lately that does the completely aggravating "moonsault to his feet, then standing moonsault?" Sombra? Mascara? Someone does it.

Did anyone watch the new Sean Bean show?

Ambrose is the guy that you put money on in the bum fight for sentimental reasons.

Wouldn't Sable get jealous?

It could be that Rogers gave WWE enough money (Canadian) to make it worth their while, but I kind of doubt it.

I guess the man really did hold them down.

A year or two from now Hero will be late-career Adrian Adonis-esque. When Steen gets really fat, he'll become Jerry Blackwellesque.

Preeeeetty sure he's seen the Doctor Who episodes at least.

I'm looking forward to Steen's improvement in the developmental system though.

I'm annoyed that they have Liefeld belts and don't use them to pull out things like Batman.

SPOILERS:

It was officially Goldust day in Yakima on August 10.

Jerry Lawler/Lex Luger unification match. 1991. So Sayeth the WON. Why Heyman got suspended. I need to know.

They did not hire Ricochet because they had enough small guys.

That's when your favorites ought to become Buddy Rose and Nick Bockwinkel. They're out there waiting for you.

Bacall was amazing. Absolutely fucking amazing. EDIT: Also, my 12 year old is awesome. "Lauren Bacall died." Me to my wife. "Who?" Says the kid. "Uh, you saw her in... Key Largo? You saw that right?" I pull up a picture of Bogey and Bacall from that. "Yeah, I've seen that." Yup. My kid is the best.

Maybe they could give Enzo a Robin Hood gimmick, have Big Cass be Little John and Steen could be Friar Tuck. Will Scarlet is right down Devitt's alley.

Once removed. Clone degeneration syndrome would actually explain a lot about Ambrose's hygiene.
