AHAHAHAHAHA… So much for Hunter firing him when he took over. This train never stops for no one! Edit: We need to see a photoshopped gif of HHH being buried by NK. "My name is Nick, my likes are saving money, million camera cuts per minute on TV shows and firing people at random, if you like these things, please reply." 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zendragon Posted August 7, 2021 Share Posted August 7, 2021 11 hours ago, Big Z said: With all of these WWE talent releases, I hope that Impact or even a new wrestling group emerges as a quality third option (and of course, works with AEW). As much as I love AEW and think that they do a good job of cycling the mid card guys in and out to go with top part of the card that features weekly, even I admit that they are getting a bit crowded with Andrade, Malakai Black, and likely Punk and Danielson now part of the company. Plus, a legitimate third company that works with AEW would allow for talent exchanges and guys moving around to stay fresh. Edit: I'm bearish on Impact being that just cause of years poor management that damaged their reputation, and their current TV situation being stuck on AXS. However, they are still the likeliest option among current American companies. I'd like to see a company started in partnership with one of these streaming services. Filmed similar to lucha underground and ever week drop a new episode on Netflix or Tubi or whereever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't that be a thing that is a positive cost cutting measure and would improve the product as well as the bottom line immediately, but noooo... I believe Cornette mentioned years ago that Dunn's father did something for ether Vince or Vince Sr. that ensured Kevin would have a job for life. Kevin Dunn basically won't leave until he retires or dies. Now why he he has to stay in a high position I have little idea. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then, 2021 Smelly would blink out of existence after 2009 Smelly dies of laughter. Heck, I said this elsewhere last week: 1. Imagine blowing the minds of a CZW crowd in 2011 by telling them that in 10 years that prime-time TV wrestling on TNT would have a Nick Gage vs Chris Jericho deathmatch main, it will lead into Jericho vs Juventud Guerrera the next week, and cause Pabst Blue Ribbon to talk trash online about Domino's Pizza. 2. and on that same night, the "B-show" will have a commentary team of Tony Schiavone, David Crockett, The Big Show, and Eddie Kingston. Also, as far as Triple H is concerned, all the people talking about him and Stephanie starting their own promotion after WWE gets sold, I would be shocked if (a) there doesn't end up being a LENGTHY no-compete clause as far as those two are concerned or (b) if they are both retained with some sort of corporate middle-management position that pays them enough of a salary to placate their egos. That said, if somehow either of the above didn't happen in the event of a sale and Hunter/Paul does get a little frisky about trying to launch his own promotion and attempting to set up meetings with television networks/media conglomerates, I could 100 percent see that being another reality check in him finding out that he's not as big of a mainstream name to Programming Executives as The Rock and Steve Austin, and without also having the major league pro sports connections that Shad and Tony Khan have, not even getting his foot in the door. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EVA Posted August 7, 2021 Share Posted August 7, 2021 Given how badly he has bungled NXT despite having all the resources of WWE at his disposal, I wouldn’t give Paul a nickel to start his own promotion from scratch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirSmUgly Posted August 7, 2021 Share Posted August 7, 2021 7 hours ago, goitre3000 said: You're giving him an escape clause? "He was a shitcunt because he was insecure" is exactly the same as "He was a shitcunt." It just means his shitcuntery was ego-driven, which in no way makes it ok or deserving of sympathy. He made his own bed (or used others to make it for him), he can fucking rot in it. Goodness, no. I'm just saying that there is tragedy there. I feel bad for King Lear, but I also think he got exactly what he deserved, you know. Same thing here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zakk_Sabbath Posted August 8, 2021 Share Posted August 8, 2021 I always found it interesting that other than his physique, a lot of HHH's sensibilities seem to have been at odds with what one would think Vince is/was into. The whole reign of terror Flair cosplay, squashing almost exclusively WCW guys for two years, seems to be the anti-NY doesn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's extremely odd to me that he'd spend his whole career being so jacked up, and yet never do any strength spots ever. If you look like you could Gorilla Press a guy, you should Gorilla Press guys. And if you physically aren't strong enough to... why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spontaneous Posted August 8, 2021 Share Posted August 8, 2021 He's the cerebral assassin, he is using his intellect to pick apart his opponents. Which doesn't explain why he has no idea how to swing a hammer. 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
