OCTOBER 2015 WRESTLING DISCUSSION


RIPPA

Recommended Posts

You should listen to the latest MLW podcast with Konnan.

Basically, they aren't pissed yet because they think he's still going to fulfill his dates

I wouldn't bet on that actually happening

Konnan thinks ADR is gonna fulfill his dates? We've entered the Twilight Zone, haven't we?
Thinking Del Rio is going to fullfill all his booking commitments is the new believing Heyman when he says the check is in the mail.

Who believes a guy that no-showed an autism benefit show is going to fufill his commitments?

I know Konnan has health issues, I didn't think he was delusional.

He also didn't wear the ribbon during an AIDS walk.

It's not a problem if Alberto bails with the belt. AAA can just create a new title called the "Super Duper Mega Awesome Great Job World Champion of the Wrestling Galaxy Championship".

If only you had pulled that off in Spanish ...

Who? Who doesn't want to wear the ribbon?

So this week's Table For 3 is Bo Dallas, Neville, and Samoa Joe. I wish WWE would have a King of Trios tournament using the threesomes they book for this show.

 

So far we'd have

 

The New Day

Sting/DDP/Vader

Ambrose/Owens/Cesaro

Madusa/Ivory/Molly

Miz/Truth/Axel

Dallas/Neville/Joe

Ryback/Bryan/Ziggler

Man Hogan's 1998 WCW contract was just insane

 

http://www.scribd.com/doc/287131780/1998-Hulk-Hogan-contract-with-WCW

 

Was this the contract he scored by leveraging a return to WWF as it began to heat up? In an ideal world, someone over at WCW could called his bluff as WWF had already blown past them with Austin on top by the time he signed this deal and WCW had DDP and Goldberg coming up as guys who could probably carry the company along with Sting and Flair.

Hogan could've worked in 1998 WWF. Corporate Hogan with Vince taking on Austin would've been loads of fun. If you run the SS 1998 screw job with Hogan instead of Mankind, you set up Hogan/Rock and Tony Schiavone spoiling Hogan's title victory on the air.

Actually that all sucks

I personally prefer the idea/fantasy booking of a Savage WWF return in 1997, but Vince McMahon so undervalued Savage as a performer that it probably would have sucked.

$2 million signing bonus. 25% house cut for every Nitro/Thunder appearance. 15% PPV cut. 50% merchandise cut. $20,000 per month just to promote the n... W... o.

 

How much of that would he have given back for a half decent divorce lawyer?

So, looking at that, $2M signing bonus, $4M/year guaranteed for 3 years, + at least 6 PPVs/year at 15% of buys or $675K, whichever is greater, 25% of Nitro/Thunder ticket sales or $25K, whichever is greater, 25% cut of house show ticket sales (gross), first-class trans, 50% of net profits on all Hogan merchandise and $20K/month for nWo merch, and a $175 per diem.
