    If you mean physically hurt, I'm pretty sure she's still working House Shows so I'm not sure that makes sense.

    lol.  They don't want to hurt her by having her lose every week or every other week on TV.  Then try to build her up 2 weeks before the show she wins the belt by having her lose some more.  

    I legit thought the original post actually meant "get injured" because 1) the injury bug and 2) why would they care if someone is hurt in a booking sense?  It's not like their booking helps anyone for the most part.  I could absolutely see them "build" Sasha up by having her go 50/50 all the way to Summerslam.

    Whoever shopped that poster needs to learn that people don't want to go to a show where the wrestlers look like they've been splattered with errant feces

    I was thinking "they look like they're covered in ants" but errant feces works, too.

    All the Photoshop and they didn't get rid of Sandow's double chin?

    If Apple wanted to give me an iPhone for free, I'd take it in a minute flat. Would anyone in their right mind say, "Oh, that's hurting Apple's bottom line so much." Give me all the free stuff possible.

    I have zero doubts whatsoever that there are diehard Apple fans who would say this.  There are rabid fanbases for every single pursuit you can imagine and there is a subset of every single one who treats it this seriously, like they're "in the biz," and the Internet has enabled them to congregate and go on and on like insiders.  You know there are fans of comics, My LIttle Pony, fast food and everything in between who discuss business moves and various inside baseball bullshit like it matters to their lives.  For example, if I see one more video game fan reference "SKUs" or "engines," I'm going to pee straight up in the air.

    Those two minutes of random, self-indulgent stupidity finally got me on the "Kevin Smith Sucks" boat.

    I hated Clerks.  I am the captain of this fucking boat.

    I saw it when it came out and thought it was boring and juvenile.  Other people said, "oh, you need to have worked in retail to have really enjoyed it."  Really?  That's your target audience?  Wow, that's some narrowcasting there.

    Vince's health is a huge deal. If he dies, the stock is going to tank. I know we all want him to retire but man if he ever does the WWE is going to tank.

    Just like USA thinks McMahons = ratings, Wall Street has the misconception that only Vince can successfully run a wrestling company.

    Does this mean the WWE isn't producing documentary DVDs anymore? Seems like he was a talking head in dozens of them.

    I think he was a talking heads in so many because he was always around...not because he was a part of any specific documentary's focus.

    Brawler was usually the one in-charge at video shoots/backstage promos, so it makes sense that he was on all the docs.

     

    Right, this was covered by, I want to say Court Bauer, maybe, on a few podcasts.  As Ace said, Lombardi was the guy in charge of rounding up talking heads for the DVDs and he often would pad things out (to put it in a nice way) by filming himself talking about every single subject.  Eventually, Vince caught on and asked "WHY THE FUCK IS BRAWLER ON EVERY DVD?"
