Dolfan in NYC

The full Wyatt segment from last night. Now with more Cowardly Chad Gable than ever! (Cole having to literally explain what a VHS cassette is, was an especially nice touch.)

FINISHED THE STORY!!!!!!!

Comedian Gary Vider has been going around the media circuit promoting his new podcast #1 DAD His father was a conman who ran all kinds of scams with his family and children. Then he left them. This is Gary's attempt to actually learn how deep his father's grifts went and to see if there's any way to reconnect with him. It's a little disjointed, but ultimately fascinating. The reason I'm putting it here is because as a kid in the 1990s, Gary's dad and he would con their way into Madison Square Garden. The scam was, they were posing a photographer and child reporter for Sports Illustrated for Kids. Vider got to meet tons of famous athletes this way including Michael Jordan, Mark Messier, Wayne Gretzky, and Patrick Ewing. The scam even continued to work when *the actual reporters* for SI For Kids showed up! Definitely worth a listen.

As stated in the main thread, Rumble 2025 will now be in Indianapolis. A "future" SummerSlam and WrestleMania will be awarded to them as well. Since Minneapolis already got SS '26, I'd venture a guess and say '26's WrestleMania and '27's SummerSlam will be in Indy.

No matter how hard I try... you keep pushing me aside... And I can't break through... There's no talking to you Well, last week had quite a few debuts and surprises, didn't it! There are now more Samoans and Tongans than ever on Smackdown! Drew McIntyre quits live on Raw! And even on NXT... someone said his name! It's so sad that you're leaving, it takes time to believe it.... But after all is said and done, you're gonna be the lonely one, oh! And even with all that, we're still well on the road to Money in the Bank in a couple of weeks! More qualifying matches this week! And ooh, Breakker/Kaiser tonight! Do you believe in life after love? I can feel something inside me say, I really don't think you're strong enough, no! But of course, the big story of the week is the debut of the Wyatt Sick6 as they begin their reign of terror... but first, Whataburger! Did I expect to use the gayest song of the 1990s for this week? No. But sooner or later, we will all BO-LIEVE! Happy Pride everyone!

You know you fucked up bad when you get tossed before you even throw a pitch: The fun part is he gets an automatic 10 game suspension for this idiocy.

Toronto's #2 prospect Orrelvis Martinez made his major league debut on Friday. And in the "leave them always wanting more" genre of the news.... He pissed hot last night and has been given 80 games off.

This is the full segment that closed the show. One absolutely lovely little touch that sells Jacob like a million bucks and a gigantic problem is the way the Tongans both look at each other right before they throw up the 1's. It's "oh fuck, what have we gotten ourselves into?" It will be one of those moments that when, not if, this all blows up in Solo's face, you'll definitely remember.

No. This is just making me sad. I don't even know what to do with my fandom any more. Jesus....

There's a report that WWE is about to reach an agreement with Lucas Oil Stadium to run multiple shows in Indy... Starting with Rumble '25.

I want to parlay this with a Washington Generals victory over the Harlem Globetrotters, please.

*scribbles notes for later*

In significantly yuckier news:

For the record, I was told by a friend that the person in charge of this account is actually one of the owners of Gym Bar in WeHo. So, if you're ever in the area, be sure to thank them with a drink.

Nationwide tournaments are going on right now as Euro 2024 has kicked off and now Copa America starts tonight! Canada takes on Argentina in a match to determine who's polar regions are better! Also to juice ratings because Messi will play for La Albiceste tonight. The USMNT kicks off their tournament on Sunday vs. Bolivia. Can Coach Berhalter pull off the impossible... and get fired mid-tournament? Let's see!

Two pieces of Wyatt Sick6 related news: 1) As I put over in the Sports Media thread, the Pat McAfee Show was 'taken off the air' by the Wyatts. 2) Since they murdered Chad Gable on Monday night, he's been removed from his MitB qualifier on Monday. It's now:

This week on the Corporate Synergy Happy Hour!

Yes but...
