If we are contining to have the wrestling t shirt talk.... I have kind of wanted one of those basic NJPW shirts for a while. Just a basic shirt with the logo on the front.
I really like that logo. But the whole stigma around wrestling shirts and the fact I actually know next to nothing about NJPW other then they have a sweet logo put me off.

Ricochet has a shot.
Rich Swann though.....if you'd knock anyone for being short, it would be Rich Swann.
**looks up his "billed as" height**
No way in hell he's 5' 8".

While I don't doubt some people are harsher on the NXT womens match due to their gender, it was a bad match and they tried to build her up the whole show as a big deal. My biggest problem was with the commentary during the match as Graves just kept talking about her looks.
They built NXT into too big of a thing to let totally green workers go out there. They know this and that's why they seem to have so much more interest in indie talent that probably wouldn't have gotten a chance 2 years ago.

I bet some in WWE are hoping that Lucha Underground doesn't get funding for a second season so they can get another shot at signing him.
Plus Meltzer on Daniel Bryan's book:
So over half of it is on his Indie days. Though it seems AJ has been edited out.
edited: How do these British Indie promotion have the money to make that match?

WWE has been ok with mentioning indies and New Japan when its appropriate. Like after signing a big indie name or something. Or when talking about guys like Bryan and CM Punks past.
Really its only TNA that they pretend doesnt exist.

What would he wrote about AJ? Why would the WWE even edit it out?
And which AJ? Styles or Lee?
The closest they've gotten so far was mentioning Sting's TNA NWA title as canon (they only said NWA)
And Cena's promo during the "cena might get fired" angle where he said he was going to go down south and get right back on television.

Too much salt there for Vince to even begin to think about touching that plate.

really hope they get the adam cole one back in stock soon.
my issue is her mannerisms are.....interesting. I thought we were past the whole "being a sexual object as the primary part of a women's wrestler", I get it that she's coming from a more "you can't have this, I'm probably stronger than some of the male wrestlers etc etc" pov which is empowering and all but she's still a little full on. I'm sure she'll get better and I already dig her finisher
Daniel Bryan's book is out in late July. Must be preview copies.
Can't wait to read the first 158 pages.
wtf guys!

Yup.
The related videos just reminded me of how bad TNA's "shoots" were about WWE. Especially Anderson's. Ugh.

You're assuming they're not run by money marks who don't mind losing the cash.
But also, sometimes, Japanese wrestlers like to combine a vacation and working on indy shows, so there could be a discount. Also, thanks to various Japanese wrestlers doing their excursions in England, it's also seen as a bucket list kind of thing.
However, it's far more likely just a money mark.
what did you think of the ending to Neville Sheamus, seemed pretty weak to me for such a good match. Thrown on the announcers desk seems lame as a DQ

Or, keep them off the air until they know basic things like running the ropes or taking bumps so you don't poison them for their audience before they're ready.

Damn, speaking of shirts... Is Yottsume dead? I bought a shirt from PuroResuShop.com in January and never got it. His last tweet was in January too: https://twitter.com/puro_yottsume
He was obviously talking about FCW.
Probably should do a Paypal refund request if you still can, not looking good for him:

Agreed, but at least they gave Neville a moral victory. Another loss would have had fans crying.

Solomon Crowe has quite possibly the worst look ever.

Saw this on his twitter last week. Jealous! I hope there's a way to watch this here in the states.
Goku has a much better look than that

My girlfriend buought a shirt like this at Wrestlecon. Baseball t-shirt type with the 3/4 sleeves. I really liked how it looks.

Bootaaay for the win! Thanks!
It actually seemed the WWE was loosening up on mentioning TNA.
And then TNA sued them over signing TNA talent and it seemed at that point WWE went to total no-mentioning as a legal thing.

The Brian Kendrick is still around. He has a more important job then being on NXT. He is training Eve Marie right now.
God damn. What a burden.
