Casey Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 Yeah, he was sent home, but just the idea that he would show up, sick, during a global pandemic, is kind of telling to how WWE runs things. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know he earned points with Vince for doing that. Gotta put the company above all else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Edwin Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 (edited) That doesn't prove/disprove no one has/hasn't been tested since then, but yeah, no need to keep going and forth on that, so I'll leave at that.

AxB Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 What is FREEDOMS? Because it's coming to IWTV. Oh, it's where Jun Kasai and Masashi Takeda wrestle. The ridiculously over the top Death Match stuff. Scissor boards and stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Log Posted May 15, 2020 Share Posted May 15, 2020 One of my favorite things in wrestling is when a small-time promotion has a guy doing a rich snob gimmick and he is obviously wearing a $50 suit. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Edwin Posted May 15, 2020 Share Posted May 15, 2020 (edited) TIL WWE had a Jr.'s division in 2005 and Super Porky was part of it. Edit: Speaking of Super Porky and because I know @Curt McGirt is interested, I just came across this: Edited May 15, 2020 by Edwin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curt McGirt Posted May 15, 2020 Share Posted May 15, 2020 Yeah that end made me mad. I wanted to see him just lay on that skinny bastard and hit him in the kidneys until he was pissing blood. Running in circles around a fat guy is not how you have a fight. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AxB Posted May 15, 2020 Share Posted May 15, 2020 So during the Fite stream of Dynamite, instead of just playing the Dynamite theme constantly in the breaks (did you know it has verses? I do), they kept playing the trailer for the Fite.tv movie with Jon Moxley and Christian and Gina Gershon. It's about a Pro Wrestler challenging for the World MMA Championship for no particular reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He used to/still does read the board and he's active and pretty sociable on Twitter. I've had some exchanges with him and he seems like a very nice and likable dude. That /r/wrestlinggenis subreddit can be much funner to read with lesser content than /r/squaredcircle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Longer than 2 seconds for 6 feet? Do they realize how short 6 feet is on a fall? That would take very little time. Hell, in a free fall it only would take about 2 seconds to fall 60 feet. https://www.angio.net/personal/climb/speed.html Edited May 15, 2020 by Ryan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paintedbynumbers Posted May 15, 2020 Share Posted May 15, 2020 I have to call Bullshit on Meltzer. Graves and Carmella both stated they tested negative as did Natty. I believe Lawler also came out and said he tested negative but I could be wrong on him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
