Brian Fowler Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 Well, I have to confess: a lot more is happening than I expected last night/this morning, nationally. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piranesi Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 Maybe the Prince will accept a free month of WWE Network instead? He can still watch the all his favorite Fashion Police matches plus that MSG show where Kamala and Andre were in a cage! Guys, this is going to go very smoothly! Next up: WWE ONE NIGHT IN PARADISE: LIVE FROM UGANDA'S FAVORITE THEME RESTAURANT KON-E-CHEESE! Who would have thought when Wrestlemania 1 happened that THAT would end up being the company that would go on to perfectly symbolize the death throws of End-Stage Colonial Capitalism? Certainly not Mr. T! 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Web Conn Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 I could see The WWE running the show just cuz it's so far along already but I'd be surprised if they came back after this for awhile at least until all the political pressure dies down. Personally I would have said no women no show back in April, get with the times or as Martin would say get to steppin'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thing is the way American political media and popular opinion works, the next two weeks is the ONLY time this will be a problem, since in a few months everyone will be way more outraged over which color shoes Lil Mosey is wearing on his hands or what not and they can go right back to the deal. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John from Cincinnati Posted October 12, 2018 Author Share Posted October 12, 2018 If John Bolton gets his way and you guys bomb Iran, this will all blow over. Just a thought. A thought John Bolton probably wakes up to every morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phantom Lord Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 They could just move the show to Dubai. Still plenty of rich arabs who will love the whole DX thing. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Web Conn Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 They could sell out a basketball Arena in the states with DX vs Brothers of Destruction even on two weeks notice. MAy not be able to pay Shawn 10 million though, but Matt Bentlay could shave his head and be a Shawn stand in. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spontaneous Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 Wish this was really not happening. I will not watch as I did not watch the GRR. Doesn't mean much I suppose. Fuck Saudi Arabia. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Web Conn Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 I'll watch maybe idk I watched GRR. I'd much rather they'd go to the DRC and have a Sports Entertainment vs Catch Fétiche supershow in Kinsasha. Seriously Voodoo Wrestling is something completely different than you'll see anywhere else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Natural Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 Only thing I watched from GRR was THAT Titus O'Neil entrance botch. I was crying with laughter and Corey Graves' not able to keep it together. GIF below: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piranesi Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 You know, it's not like I don't know now that wrestling was never a "clean" and non-horrible business...but somehow it's so on-the-nose-for-2018 depressing that the thing that I used to watch when I was 11 on Sunday mornings because I liked to see George Steele eat weird stuff and hoped he would get a date with Miss Elizabeth is now a thing where I have to ponder the loss of hundreds of millions of dollars in blood money vs. abandoning any semblance of a universal moral imperative for democratic human rights standards and, like, literally the official end of pretending the Enlightenment was a success before I decide if I want to watch New Day's pretend butler eat weird stuff. Somewhere between Nixon going to China and Constable Corbin going to Saudi Arabia we lost control scaleablility. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Go2Sleep Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 Short of the GOP itself, WWE is probably the most virulently pro-Trump entity in America right now. As long as the adminstration's line is "yeah, but look at all this money" you can bet WWE will follow suit. The only thing Vince and Donald hate more than losing money is admitting they did something wrong, and Vince is actually the more insulated of the two. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuerrillaMonsoon Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 I'd love to see an angle in the main event where all three guys are down, when Mohammed Hassan's music hits, he runs out, cashes in the Money in the Bank briefcase that he paid SAUDI OIL MONEY to Baron Corbin to obtain, and then pins Roman. Hassan is revealed as the money man behind the Saudi PPVs. I demand Mohammed Hassan closure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spontaneous Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 It bums me out, I was looking forward to Styles vs Bryan, their match from ROH Main Event Spectacles was one of the first few indy matches I ever saw.

evilwaldo Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 The worst part of all this is the Turkish government released the detained Priest so you know there was some sort of payback to the Turkish government. Nobodies hands are clean in this. Everyone has blood on their hands. Us, the Saudi's, the Turkish government. Dirty tentacles just extend out in all directions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlaeBlazer Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 It looks the show is going on. There will likely be some backlash if it does. Now if they air those Saudi propaganda ads like they did it at GRR, the media is going to absolutely fuck them. If they go, I hope they have the awareness to not air those.

muhammedboehm Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 Problem is those propaganda ads might be part of the deal to do the show there to begin with, so if your going to brake the contract by not airing them seams stupid to go in the first place.
