RIPPA Posted June 11, 2018 Author Share Posted June 11, 2018 Apparently this has been "known" for a bit but Bobby Roode noted in an interview today that the WWE is looking to find a bigger building to house the Performance Center since they have grown so much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John from Cincinnati Posted June 11, 2018 Share Posted June 11, 2018 That's fair. If they're going to keep buying guys just to buy them, they'll need a place to store them. 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted June 13, 2018 Author Share Posted June 13, 2018 Ricochet and Stephanie Newell both suffered injuries on the UK tour They sent back Ricochet a little early so it appears they will keep him off the other shows until Takeover. Pete Dunne took his spot in the Main Event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NikoBaltimore Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 (edited) I saw that video of all places again on the Desus and Mero show last night. Don't know how viral that video is, but three guys struggling against a lion cub in tug of war is a sight to behold. Edited June 18, 2018 by NikoBaltimore Thanks to Norweigan Rudo for the correction.

Nice Guy Eddie Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 I don't recall anyone ever trying to headbutt The Rock. If someone did, he didn't inherit the black & Pacific islander hard head. God, that sounds so awful and there's really no good way to word it. God damn wrestling and it's racial stereotypes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wyld Samurai Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 As a half Pacific islander I love our hard headedness. It really does run in the family. Or is that stubbornness... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the stubborness in Greeks and Italians is definitely a thing. Used right it can work out quite nicely. As for Mantaur, please tell me you showed your family when they had him on WWF TV in the 90s. I could only imagine what they would have thought of it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nice Guy Eddie Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 I still have family in Crete that I'm planning to visit next year. I also have family in Athens. I was in Greece once, but as a baby. I may have shown Mantaur to my yia yia who's now 90. She was the one that told me wrestling was fake anyway when I was 9 or 10. I'd mark out so hard for Team Greek mythology (Mantaur, Zeus, Medusa) for King of Trios. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tbarrie Posted June 19, 2018 Share Posted June 19, 2018 Random question: is "Undisputed Era" the single stupidest group name in the history of wrestling? That sounds like hyperbole, but I've been trying and I can't remember anything worse. Anybody got a challenger? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tbarrie Posted June 19, 2018 Share Posted June 19, 2018 4 hours ago, Nice Guy Eddie said: The Corrre Oh, good call. I had completely forgotten about The Corre. I think I could make an argument that "Undisputed Era" is stupider, but it's close. Regarding The Authority and The Filthy Animals - I don't know, I actually think "The Authority" is a pretty cool name for an evil heel group who are supposed to be running the show. I can't argue about their hogging TV time, but if we start listing every group that was booked worse or used worse than Undisputed Era we're be here all day.:) And I could picture a group of people actually ironically calling themselves "Filthy Animals". It's not a good name, but I don't think it compares to gibberish like "The Corre" or "The Undisputed Era". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
