Robert S Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 Lance Storm indicated on a podcast with Bryan Alvarez that one main reason for him closing his school is that as a trainer he likes to be very "hands-on" (i.e. spending time in the ring, bumping etc. with his students) and he is feeling that his body cannot really handle it anymore in the long run. I am sure he could get a gig in Florida in the PC, though I am not really sure if that is what he wants. Considering the time he spent at home since the retired as a fulltime wrestler, I doubt he wants to go back on the road as an agent. What other wrestling-related options are there for him?

He seems to be hinting that he’s being hired for his training expertise. If it’s AEW, then they might be starting up their own performance center/Power Plant. If it’s the WWE, then... Well he won’t be head trainer, but no veteran can expect to get that kind of special treatment. Have their been rumors of another Performance Center in the near future?

odessasteps Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 I haven’t listened to the pod lance did with Jericho last week yet, so I don’t know if it came up there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AxB Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 1 hour ago, Niners Fan in CT said: Sounds right in my head. I think he was coming off the Matt feud and he had won MITB and then he ended a long Cena reign (after Cena won an Elimination Chamber Match). He won MitB at Mania in April, and cashed it in in early January. Momentum sustained for nine months seems unlikely, he had a Kane feud. I think the ratings spike was partly it being January when the NFL regular season had finished, and partly the casual fans who check in and out because nothing ever changes heard something had changed. And announcing a Live Sex Show on TV was always going to be a one-off ratings draw. Plus they moved the belt off of him very quickly afterwards (18 day reign; Two RAWs), so we'll never know if it would have been a sustainable ratings increase.

He also had the first TLC match, which may have been mentioned as one of the Hardy bumps. Between that TLC match and the Flair match, Edge apparently put his working boots on in Raleigh.

GuerrillaMonsoon Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 Orton and Jericho probably both in the conversation too. Even Kane to an extent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just Dave Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 Saw it mentioned a couple pages back, but my outside wrestling hobbies are training Muay Thai, going to Braves baseball games, chillin’ with the wife and my nieces, and movies and stuff.

The Orlando Colon feud with Gilbert is probably my favorite storyline in wrestling at the moment. I think Anniversario was this weekend, too. Maybe the blowoff of that feud?

Nice Guy Eddie Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 (edited) 11 hours ago, D.Z said: King Corbin. King RickoShea. King Joe but he starts losing even more. Joe worked as King Joe in Zero-1. If Joe wins, he needs a King Haku style coronation. For some reason, he's the only one I could see pulling that off really well. Maybe Cesaro, too. I don't see any of the others pulling off a cape and crown well. If Joe wins, there should be a haka dance, Polynesian women in grass skirts, and a pig roast.

Zakk_Sabbath Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 I liked Edge very, very much in 2006 as the anti-Cena but honestly I can say I think I miss Christian more. He and Orton were headlining SD when I came off an extended watching hiatus and I really enjoyed it. I was glad to see that Orton considers it a highlight 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boydy Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 I am surprised WWE hasn't done a Queen Of The Ring just to have Charlotte win it and challenge Bayley at Survivor Series. They could also have Liv Morgan get to the final and take Charlotte to the limit and start to push her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
