Well that was easy

And to answer our recently departed brother - considering Bob Armstrong had his retirement match in June of this year don't always trust "wrestling data"

Now this is coming from Wrestling Twitter INSIDERZ~! so take it for what it is worth but....

Supposedly the WWE is having a press conference on Thursday (Sept 15) in London (in the O2 Arena) announcing they will be doing a tournament of just UK guys

This is actually a smart thing to do going forward. it's a great way for them to scout and work with unsigned talent and see if they can work within the WWE.

Did he ever have a match? I was at the June Gulf South Wrestling show that was suppose to be the first match of Bullet's retirement tour,He wasn't there cause of what I was later told was a leg infection.

Then the next day hit the Wrestle Birmingham show,which Bullet was suppose to be at. But he wasn't there. It was Tracy Smothers that told me Bullet had an infection.

Rippa, if you are flipping people's pics to the John Cash fuck off when you ban them, I love you even more for it 

Have you never noticed that before?

The John Cena SNL episode was alright, but nothing special. 2 good skits and an hour of mediocre. The owl puppet bit got a good laugh from me, but this definitely didn't feel like the breakout performance that The Rock has had on SNL in the past.

About that supposed UK tournament, There's a news bit going around that Vince and the WWE are nervous about the World of Sport relaunch in the UK on ITV and they want to nip it in the butt before it can even start.

Kinda sounds like an XWF deal back when Hogan had that litle fed for himself and than the WWE was like "lets just resign Hennig, Lawler, and a couple of these other guys". So I guess if you're a British wrestler who's not under contract to anyone right now it might be a very Happy New Year with money being offered about.

And then have none of the good ones sign and get stuck with whatever the UK equivalent of TJ Perkins is

So basically the WWE has gotten to the real life equivalent of when you get bored with the Universe mode of WWE 2k16 and start downloading created content to run tournaments with guys not in the game to amuse yourself?

I never mentioned this, but the Cash pic looks like the banned guy is getting the last word. 

Also you guys are missing the boat on Strowman. The 3 on 1 match is an instant Squash classic. Man when he did the avalanche piggy backing that dude and then that dropkicking two guys at once was Bananas.

The best part of that Burnt Stamen 3 on 1 squash (other than that guy getting thrown real good) was Corey Graves calling the dude with the afro No Way Jose's wimpy cousin, Maybe Not Jorge.

Also Brandywine Stromboli gets a lot of love in the weekly Raw threads.

Per Meltzer - Chris Hero has re-signed with the WWE

No word on if they would bring him back to NXT, go straight to main roster, be Kassius Ohno again, etc...

 

I see a feud with Steen over the KO initials.
