August Wrasslin’ |OT| When Russo Shoots, He Shoots To Kill

I wish I knew. No clue on his status at all. He tweets everyday apparently but never about his injuries and such.

Edit:

Well, shit. Samurai TV have pre-empted the New Japan 'Destruction in Okayama' show to instead broadcast NOAH's 'Great Voyage in Niigata' show live - the New Japan show will be aired on a 24hr delay.

Perhaps Samurai dislike the two-show format New Japan have begun using for some events this year? It spreads the quality match-ups too thin for my liking.

SNME episode 18 has a Rusev/Swagger styled flag match between Doogun and Zhukov. No poles, no winner is the first to retrieve or raise their flag. Standard match with the winner getting a giant flag of his country to hang from the ceiling. It also features Ted Dibiase repeatedly referring to Hercules as his slave (as he purchased Herc's contract from Heenan, complete with Jesse bringing up Roots and Vince being disgusted with the idea of slavery in 2014 1988, but no one being bothered at all that Ted clearly thinks of treats Virgil like his personal slave.

Also had clips of police brutality as an officer (Big Boss Man) beat a dark skinned man (Hulk Hogan) on a different show. Hulk would then asks Slick how he would feel if every Hulkamaniac got to beat him with a stick, calling him, "boy" at the end of this. He would go on to say he was going to pervert the justice system by appointing himself judge and finding Brother Love guilty without a trial, promising to execute him as well.

He then handcuffs and assaults Brother Love, a man of the cloth, as Vince McMahon says it is one of the greatest moments in television history.

LOL. Those Hogan segments sound incredible. Nice to have confirmation that it's not just Cena who's an inconsistent babyface.

Hogan's twitter today:

"Can't bring legends together without me, brother. Got some stuff to say about MY champ @johncena. See you Hulkamaniacs at Raw on Monday."

Shit.

This show in particular was absolutely terrible. Tons of noshows/nothing landing right/etc. Watch September's show.

RE: The Powerbombcast thing, I'm pretty sure that's just for Summerslam.

Just one that happened to be free for everybody. Happens every now and again.

The powerbombcast is ass.
This one is free though, the rest are subscriber only.

Ahh I see thanks. Actually enjoying it for what it is. I'm simple to please though.
 
WrassleGAF, I require your gif-making assistance.

So apparently there is a shot in the Shield documentary where during the spots where they use CZW footage, I'm yawning as someone gets put through a table or something.

I would like to request a gif of this. For my own personal amusement as well as yours, of course. :p

I can already hear his promo.

"Six...teen. That's the number everyone's been talking about for the past week. It's the number that I've been hearing everywhere I go. On every television channel, and on every website. Six...teen.

It's a big number. And as the WWE Universe knows, sixteen is the number of times that Brock Lesnar suplexed me at Summerslam. He demolished me. He brutalized me. He victimized me. But he didn't finish me. And that was his mistake.

Because you see, sixteen has another meaning for me. A very special meaning. And at night of Champions, people won't be talking about sixteen suplexes. No way, jack. It ain't gonna go down like that. At Night of Champions, the number sixteen will be significant for a whole other reason. At Night of Champions, -I- will win the WWE World Heavyweight Championship for the sixteenth time! And for the sixteenth time I will be able to say...the champ...IS...HEERRRE!"

*doo doo doo doooooo...doo doo doo doooooo*
I can actually see this promo happening

Is it this one? I'm skimming through the doc and seeing just this.

Poor YOSHI-HASHI can't get anyone to put him over, even when they're sleeping;

Yoshi.gif


Checking his stats, the only wrestler (not counting young lions) YOSHI's defeated since returning from CMLL three years ago is Captain New Japan, lol. Even Captain has a better win record, with singles victories over Gedo, Taichi & Ishii.

SD! will be moving to Thursdays, starting October 2nd. This is probably the best news for WWE in years. They should really take this opportunity to start treating SD! like it matters again.
