I feel like this must be fake. Hall and Nash don't even react as they come to the ring.
Between the crowd noise and the acoustics in the building, it's entirely possible that from their vantage point, they couldn't notice any difference in the music.

Rock's gimmick really only works when he's trying to build a match that he's actually participating in. The last few times he's come out to just do his schtick and pop the crowd, he's come off as a weak parody of himself. His appearance on the first Fox Smackdown was a complete waste of time.

I do quibble with Savage not being able to carry the weight of the promotion. They did big business with Hogan out making the movie during his first run on top.
Savage and Flair was a big live draw for WCW, too.

Several other websites as well reporting and more from Mexico. Quick twitter search with his WWE name will show more results.
Anything with an actual source? This is just speculation.

Charges against Alberto Del Rio have been dropped, the woman who accused him lied about the kidnapping and rape. And she apologized for her mistakes.
Do you have a source for that?

Like a lot of the guys from this era, he was a better worker than you would think, if you were judging him solely on his push. Honestly, guys like Batista, Cena, and Orton were lucky, because they could have just as easily turned out like Damaja and Dinsmore and Conway. People complain about how guys like Ricochet and Black are used once they make it to the main roster, but the WWE has been doing shit like this for 20 years.

Vince will think its the G1 (its been around long enough for him to know of it), will assume Woods jumped ship to throw his trombone in the trashcan and promptly fire him.
But then he'll see Shane Strickland walking around backstage, get confused, and try to fire him again.

F-Troop Indians were not only Italian, but Borscht Belt style comedians.
I think that's the only style of comedy taught at the Larry Storch School Of Acting.

In wrestling, does anything beat Chief Jay Strongbow, Italian-American Indian?

They have acknowledged him coming from Ghana for years now. They even occasionally joke about how he was a fake Jamaican.
Street Profits made fun of the Jamaican gimmick as recently as Friday's Smackdown.

Y'all acting like there isn't a 99% chance he tweets out something that gets his account deleted once he leaves office and loses his special treatment as a world leader.

Don't shoot him, you'll only make him mad.

I've probably been watching puroresu before you were born and have actually been to the Tokyo Dome and Korakuen Hall.

Oh good, you're a gatekeeper, too.

Getting back to the Iron Man match conversation, last night I got to the point in my Ohio Valley Wrestling watch where they ran a 30-minute Iron Man match on TV for the Southern Tag Team titles between The Revolution (The Machine and The Damaja, aka the Basham Brothers) and the Lords Of The Ring (Nick Dinsmore and Rob Conway, aka Eugene and Rob Conway). It's not a bad match, as all four guys are much better workers than their main roster runs would indicate, but it's worked at the same sprint-like pace that literally every OVW match from this period is worked. And they rip off the Bret/HBK ending by going to sudden death after the match ends in a tie.

My view is that if a movie is going to keep me in the theatre for over hours they better have a really good reason for doing so,(Scorsese, Taratentino, Nolan ,Villeneuve can pull it off most can't) and I feel the same about a match that goes over 20 minutes.
I just found out that there is a sequel to the original I Spit On Your Grave that is two and a half hours long. That seems a little excessive.

It's changed now as I get a kick out of his antics but as a kid I absolutely could not fucking stand The Boogie Woogie Man. I thought his whole presentation was stupid and I might've been the only 6 year old in the world who was rooting for Paul Jones in 1985. Actually I was probably the only person in the world rooting for Paul Jones in 1985, regardless of age.
Boogie's one of those guys like Warrior and New Jack that could talk me into wanting to see them wrestle anyone, despite being the worst fucking wrestlers ever.

During a pandemic when the amount of people they are trying to use onsite is probably limited? What roles are they suitable for that aren't likely already occupied?
How am I supposed to answer that? Do you have access to everyone's resumes? Because I don't.

They can't find things for a dozen or so people to do? Really?

So you're angry about them deciding to release people whose jobs were specifically house show based, the things they aren't doing right now and may not do again?
Yes, because they're making enough money that they can afford to at least try to find other roles for them.

I've been watching a lot of 2001/2002 OVW lately. Towards the end of 2001, Brock Lesnar gets written out after the Disciples of Synn throw a fireball in his face. His tag partner, Shelton Benjamin, goes after the Disciples for revenge by dressing in all black, putting on a leather trench coat, and attacking them with a pool cue.
You guys... he's doing Hardbody Harrison's "Stang" idea.

I was hating Marty Scurll long before we knew what a creepy piece of shit he is in real life.

I mean he's said and done some pretty awful and hypocritical stuff, but this is not the stuff he should be called out on. If they want to humiliate him, there's plenty of other shit to choose from.
I agree 100%, but I'm pretty sure that at the very least, Vince has thought about it.
