This is particularly amusing since It’s only been a few days Dijak was trolling Chris Jericho abOut being a super spreader. Melter said last night that none of the five have actually tested positive, but were belong held off the show anyway. Presumably, they’ll be out till mid October. 2
Craig H Posted September 28, 2020 Posted September 28, 2020 Or honestly, what they should do just to keep the ball rolling and make the most of this situation is have Retribution take over the Thunderdome video feeds to cut a promo while other randos attack. Even if they're in quarantine, there's no reason you couldn't at least do that with them. 2

At least T-Boz got to enjoy his moment in the sun for a few days. 3 3
elizium Posted September 28, 2020 Posted September 28, 2020 13 hours ago, King Leonidas Of Sparta said: With regards to Rock's statement, don't get too disheartened over the comments. A significant portion, ranging from 20-60% of smallhands himself's twitter followers are bots/propaganda accounts, the Rock being as famous a figure as he is will be subject to the same thing. One controversial account will reply to his tweet with something insane and then lots more will upvote it for visibility and to sow dissension. It's how social media works(unworks) nowadays. TLDR don't read read comments. Just adding the visual proof to back up Leonidas's point about bots 2

Curt McGirt Posted September 29, 2020 Posted September 29, 2020 Stephen Colbert just called the Rock "meat-beefed"

I hope some of you will get as big a kick out of this as I did: You know seeing the wrestlers win, I was saying to myself “That had to have been worked”. But seeing them stand next to the WBF guys, I see why they won. They probably also edited a struggle in there to make the WBF guys look like they had a chance too.

I laughed way harder than I should have at this. Now I can't not see that name now when seeing his stuff. And I think those bots really wanted to turn their back on Rock and burn things. Considering how many followers he has that still love him there's no way he cares about stuff like this. 1
Craig H Posted September 29, 2020 Posted September 29, 2020 You know what you will never, ever hear? "And NEW WWE Universal Champion, T-Bar!" Or Slapjack. Or Trucknutz. Or whoever the fuck. The names WWE gives people fucking kills them right out of the gate. To me, if I can never imagine their name being said in that "And new" line, then I can't buy into them. 2 3

It's going to sound normal to some and not to others, but I can't imagine a world where "T-Bar" or "Slapjack" are champions. At least not top champions. Donovan Dijak though? Awesome name. Alliteration, strong sounding, and easy to just call him Dijak. WWE has proceeded to fuck his name up twice now, but it can't be any worse than what he's currently named. 2
Spontaneous Posted September 29, 2020 Posted September 29, 2020 Who exactly were they planning to feed Retribution to anyways? It's certainly not like WWE to start an angle without any conclusion drawn up. 1

The only Retribution name that didn't sound completely terrible to me was Mace. I figured that had to be the name of the main guy and it's kinda close to Bane. T-Bar is so bad, it doesn't roll off the tongue at all. The only one of them I'm familiar with is Mia Yim, but I feel so sorry for them all. How many months before they're all released?
Craig H Posted September 29, 2020 Posted September 29, 2020 I'm surprised they didn't use "Die-Jack."
AxB Posted September 29, 2020 Posted September 29, 2020 Maybe it's a PG version of an old XFL nickname. Wasn't there a guy who wanted to play with Teabagger written on his back?
AxB Posted September 29, 2020 Posted September 29, 2020 I hear WWE has started moving people with CFO$ themes off those, and onto new entrance music instead. Might be bad news for Bobby Roode when he comes back, unless he's going to be a heel whose gimmick is that he doesn't let people sing along to Glorious any more. Apparently Heyman wanted James Storm to be on Raw, when he was in charge. But I got that off the Dirt Tweets.
Craig H Posted September 29, 2020 Posted September 29, 2020 Oh boy...Joey Ryan has filed a multi-million dollar lawsuit against his accusers. Bold move Cotton, let's see if it pays off. 2
Curt McGirt Posted September 29, 2020 Posted September 29, 2020 What, is it pro bono or something? Joey Ryan can afford a lawyer?

There's a guy who is actually named "Triple H" that's won 14 world championships.
