Unnatural Posted October 27, 2021 Posted October 27, 2021 (edited) I dunno, if Ivelisse gets a free pass for this Dynamite match then yeah, let's go ahead and bring her back. Is that whats being said, she got let go or not brought back strictly because she's a woman? Spoiler Then I suppose Sexy Star also gets a free pass and all for that Rosemary incident? Because she's a woman and the fans are just focused on her gender and not that she tried to break another wrestlers arm? Last year or whatever year it was when several women came out with stories of Tessa's attitude and racism, i mean these women were in the locker room with her, at various shows with Tessa. Do I have it incorrect? The fan outrage with Ivelisse, Sexy Star, and Tessa didn't have a thing to do with being unprofessional? I'm glad to have missed out on so much wrestling recently then, probably the best time to close that door if we're excusing shitty behavior captured on camera and reported by many eyewitnesses that were backstage. Goldberg had plenty of negative feedback after that Saudi show where he fumbled around with Undertaker. I don't remember him getting a pass. Cody and the Bucks definitely don't get a pass for their weekly comings and goings, by the threads I read at least. Tldr unprofessional conduct is unprofessional to me, no matter the promotion. No matter the spot on the card. Paint brushing an entire fandom for the online reaction to reported backstage behavior and documented actions on prime time is... definitely one take. Edited October 27, 2021 by Hayabusa Bucks and Cody as examples of politics backstage not getting free pass 3
Doragon Posted October 27, 2021 Posted October 27, 2021 WWE will report its third quarter 2021 results on Thursday, Nov 4, 2021. Money time.
Dog Posted October 27, 2021 Posted October 27, 2021 As long as we're all making ourselves pariahs: Yeah, I don't want to see Terry Funk's punches, or anyone's. We talk about flippy stuff being overused to the point that it has not emotional impact, well, punches are the same way. They've been kayfabe illegal forever, when all other strikes got through -- by that logic, they should murder someone when they connect. Yet, the guy taking one barely flinches, and refs don't even seem to admonish the puncher anymore. Make Punches Dangerous Again: Treat them like ROH Pure title matches do. 4

I wonder what the most obscure wrestling namesake there is. I’m sure there are thousands of Steve Austin’s, but I’d love for there to be a random dude named Zack Ryder or something that hates calling places. Closest I ever got was a kid in school whose surname was Skinner. So I was at college with a guy named Robert Gibson. He was best mates with Rich Moreton. Not even lying. 5

AxB Posted October 28, 2021 Posted October 28, 2021 (edited) Shit, wrong thread. Remember that Tenryu vs Fujinami match, where Fujinami went to do a Tope out of the ring, but Tenryu just punched him in the face really hard, and Fujinami spent the rest of the match spewing blood from his nose? That was good. Edited October 28, 2021 by AxB 3
Swift Posted October 28, 2021 Posted October 28, 2021 (edited) I think the only namesake I've seen was a lawyer named Scott Hall. Not very interesting. Edited October 28, 2021 by Swift
Guest Jimbo_Tsuruta Posted October 28, 2021 Posted October 28, 2021 (edited) I used to work with someone whose first name was Kane, that's all I got. Edited October 28, 2021 by Jimbo_Tsuruta
Zimbra Posted October 28, 2021 Posted October 28, 2021 Only one I got is that there was an executive at my old company named Jim Steele.
thee Reverend Axl Future Posted October 28, 2021 Posted October 28, 2021 I worked for a young IN promoter who wanted his son to be named Hogan but his far-seeing all-knowing wife forced it to a middle name. My own daughter's middle name is Fabulous Moolah. 1

Swift Posted October 28, 2021 Posted October 28, 2021 Oh just remembered the time I met a guy at work named Jim Molyneux and I was for sure certain that I was familiar with him already until hours later I realized the name in my head belonged to the ECW ref and not him.
Cobra Commander Posted October 28, 2021 Posted October 28, 2021 In my time following British election results, i've noticed that there's a frequent candidate named Jim Duggan who runs with the Peace Party. No word on if his last name is pronounced the Bill Watts way (Doo-gan)
AxB Posted October 28, 2021 Posted October 28, 2021 There's a whole region of Leeds called Scott Hall. There's a building there called Scott Hall, Scott Hall.

Doragon Posted October 28, 2021 Posted October 28, 2021 Reportedly Sinclair wants to sell off their ROH tape library archive, from 2012 to up. Also contains the footage of All In.
Elsalvajeloco Posted October 28, 2021 Posted October 28, 2021 31 minutes ago, odessasteps said: Probably no Gators. The best Scott Hall bit is like right after Nash debuts on Nitro. He comes out and at the end of his promo calls Nash the "Big Man" and himself "the Medium size Man". It's both the double entendre and also the fact Scott Hall himself is a giant person. 1
