What did she tweet?

it's very unclear which is why it's so strange. She tweeted  a post explaining due to a post she made as a white female 10 years ago she is quitting all of her wrestling duties. She says she changed as a person and blah blah blah. I wonder what the tweet was too and who called her out. Surprisingly I didn't see that.

Is Jinder Mahal still with the company? I haven't seen him mentioned in a dog's age.

Not that I'm complaining.

I'm holding you directly responsible

PLEASE, nobody send Cornette the video of yesterday's "training session" where Manabu Nakanishi taught some of the STARDOM girls how to do a toture rack into a German suplex.

 

The Cornette podcasts are one of the things keeping me going through these dull days and I really don't want to listen to him complaining about the STARDOM girls doing "stupid, outlaw shit like a torture rack into a fucking German suplex!!!"

Could someone send me in the direction of that video? Just because I'm curious how that would even work?

Why would anyone send him that? Does he even watch Stardom or know what it is? I see people post a comment like this here on occasion and can't help but wonder if they are trying to pull some reverse psychology shit and get people here to send this stuff to Cornette. 

The move is called the Mana Bauer, and it was more Utami who he was teaching it to. She is the group's power wrestler, and I think has done it once or twice before. She uses the torture rack quite often and occasionally turns it into a powerbomb.

Surprisingly that is the only gif I can find of it.

WWE fired Cain Velasquez. Seems fair, they were paying him a shitload of money and weren't using him.

Is this the most useless "run" anyone has ever had? Dude comes in for a two minute tapout and never seen again. I know he was hurt and all but WOW

Swinging torture rack into a German is fucking awesome. Don’t turn this into “Show Cornette this” because who gives a shit what he thinks looks cool? Also nobody understands the beauty of Nakanishi’s Argentinian backbreaker. He bends them so much that their bodies crumble on his shoulders. Putting them into a German to secure a guaranteed win is the cherry on top. 

Also I got to find that match in the gif. That’s Norton being held back down there. Norton Vs. Nakanishi with all his new fancy moves is a match I want to see.

I didn't think Twitter has been around for 10 years.

Apparently it started in 2006.

As for Step Stool Sarah the apology seemed sincere and I'm hoping that she means it.  It'll be interesting to see what happens when wrestling resumes but if this is going to happen might as well be now where you can deal with it privately and not have shows coming up.  I am kind of curious though about who dug these up and if she even deleted them to begin with.  That's not something you want sitting there when people look you up.

Cain shouldn’t give up on wrestling if he still wants to go. I would try the Minoru Suzuki route if I was him. Embrace being a whole new wrestling persona. AEW should pick him up. You can’t really cash in on his celebrity, but you can use his monster look.

In an alternate timeline Cain goes with AEW and is the heavy for Inner Circle instead of Hager.  That would make things far more interesting to me.

Cornette's many rants about outlaw mudshow wrestling are almost always caused by someone trying to get that reaction out of him by showing him the latest dumb wrestling "controversy." So yes, someone gets off on sending him these things because they enjoy the ranting. I don't know if anyone like that posts here - the two schools of thought that seem to exist here are "Fuck out-of-touch Cornette for not liking Kenny Omega's matches" and "Cornette is extremely knowledgeable and entertaining when he finally stops ranting."

Getting Cornette to talk shit about you is also fantastic marketing for indie wrestlers - I don't know if WWE ever signs Lio Rush without that stupid ladder no-sell video.

Manabu is a retired former champion with severe neck problems. I don’t think he knows who the hell Cornette is, or has any real desire to get noticed by the mainstream. He’s just a trainer asked to do work by his company to put their other operation over.

Do indie wrestlers want to get noticed by him or smarks on the Internet? Because the later seems the more likely candidates. 
 

wait, Southside Jim, are you Cornette? Jesus, man...

So... you just let them out of the torture rack, then german suplex them?

You snap their spines, and break their necks. He would do that and sometimes he’d do the Argentinian backbreaker into a neckbreaker.
