Curt McGirt Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 If you can think of two American guys good at broad comedy to match up, it's Sandow and Cabana. Fine pairing. I have a strong feeling the whole Rose deal is gonna end up badly for all parties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That dude was out of pocket, but that is a super bad beat if he ends up in jail for that. Nothing about that report makes me think he had any intention to cause her harm, but you have to be able to control yourself. My wife has a good friend who was in a horrific spousal abuse situation several years ago. After the friend got out of that, my wife and I both got involved with a local shelter that helped her, to the point where we're both board members now (as well as volunteering a couple hours a week working in the building). Generally, most spouses don't make a dash for the phone the first time the other spouse gets rough during an argument. Usually, there's a pattern of escalation and a lot of unreported incidents. A lot of times, when the police are called, the caller isn't really reacting to what actually happened so much as where they think the situation was about to go (i.e., they know what is about to happen, and how bad it could get). 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is good perspective on something I'm thankfully pretty ignorant about. I could see someone grabbing someone and yelling at them in an argument, despite that I would think they went a little overboard. Taking their phone isn't even something I thought was a crime. When you add the perspective of calling the police, because you know how far this person is ready to go, it makes me look at the situation differently.

An indy manager I am friends with knows R-Truth,he worked on at least one of Truth's albums,according to him Truth is set for life. Vince and Steph love him.

Funny thing is, I literally just finished reading JTG's new PDF book about how to make it in WWE (early preview of the second one). One of the things he hammered home is to ride with the top people in the business. So in that sense R Truth is definitely a made man. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

piranesi Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 I would define making it in wrestling as being employed for as long as possible and getting to be part of as many amazing things as possible while doing as little damage to your body as possible. see, Okerlund, Gene (Mean) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chaos Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 20 hours ago, Cristobal said: Also why is Sandow still using his WWE name? Surely he can't keep that. A lot of guys do tend to run under those banners when dealing with smaller indies. I don't think WWE is too concerned with a low rent indie having a guy work his WWE gimmick to sell a few tickets when they're not really turning a profit anyways. Legally, I think they have bigger fish to fry right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 BTW - Meltzer and Alvarez implied on their most recent radio show that don't be surprised if the next round of cuts comes today (well on a Friday but I don't think they want to cut folks next week before the PPV) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go2Sleep Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 Hard to imagine there's too many more cuts in store (except Adam Rose). They got rid of what, 7 or 8 people last week? That's pretty standard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
