Casey Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 4 hours ago, John from Cincinnati said: If Joe can wrestle and is in an authority role, that really helps solve the problem of Regal never getting to have that odd one-off match with one of the problem children such as Dunne or Cole or whoever would count as such these days. Meltzer said that if Joe goes back to NXT and he’s an authority figure it’s probably a good indication that he’s not cleared by WWE. But Triple H wanted him back, so… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ziggy Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 Joe Will do well in that Role. Regal was Perfect in that role as well as he was as WWE Commissioner, possibly the best on air Authority figure they've ever had. Both Joe and Regal do very well at owning it when given a speaking role. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to Cubsfan article, Quote Federacion Wrestling’s debut show on Saturday will not occur. The promotion is offering refunds to those who bought tickets through them and suggests those who brought the show through PPV store Coin Access to contact them or file a Paypal claim. (Coin Access redirects people back towards Federacion for refunds in a message that’s been edited to become increasingly hysterical; filling a claim through Paypal is your best bet.) Cubsfan's article is well worth a read. It's short and hilariously cynical about the state of wrestling in Mexico. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was great as a guy to come in and do neat headscissors and shit in multi-mans, though. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
