Literally no one cares about Naomi vs Natalya. It is bad booking.

I mean, I don't disagree. I think most people would legitimately prefer an inter-promotional match with Bayley/Sasha v. Charlotte/Becky. (assuming Bayley had been cleared to compete)

Yeah, not sure why people are making Shibata jokes or acting like Shibata is rushing back.

His backstage interview :
“Well… if you ask if I’m okay, then I don’t know how to answer. But I’m alive. After that match, I was on my way going back to the dressing room, when I fell. Today, I could stood up on my own feet. I’m looking ahead. I know that it will take much time, but I’ll do the best that I can; I will fight for it. That’s all that I can say now. But I will keep trying to see you guys again in a better condition. That’s it. Thank you.”

Everyone is so quick to try and stir shit up, when there is nothing there.
Bryan? Who knows.
It is their word against his, I do not see why they would leave money on the table when he would be a huge plus to have active.
So I kind of am inclined to believe WWE.
If he wants to run and put it on the line, New Japan may not be the best place for him.

He said on his blog today that injuries are a part of wrestling and that he realized wrestling is his life.

That doesn't sound like anything other than "I want to come back."

Iunno, its because i'm a huge football fan, but I'm just kinda feeling guilty for watching a sport where wrestlers/players are consistently cutting their lives short. Not calling anybody out here, I just think Meltzer is very guilty of playing both sides.



Giving Naomi the title at Wrestlemania was a huge mistake.

Yeah I see where you're coming from. I think it's what a lot of fans deal with. Watching these dudes slowly kill each other

And I was totally fine with Naomi winning at Mania initially, I thought it would be a short title reign. Boy was I wrong.

Seph I hope you have a more competitive opponent for me the next time you book me, because if you don't I might as well not show up

Nah it is true, they have a lot of good things going on especially compared to what it used to be a year ago when they only had Revival to keep them afloat

Of course some of the writing/booking is still bad but the product is enjoyable.

It's weird to read "it's better, but also bad". I think some of it is better, but as a whole it's not near the hype level it was 2 years ago coming out of that Brooklyn NXT

I appreciate you grabbing this brass ring, friend. Fear not, the front office has some solid competition for you, and we'll be keeping an eye on this match because the powers that be see potential in you

Of course he wants to, and to be honest that may be what saved his life.
You have to have a reason to fight.
He is a warrior.

Outside of the tuesday night contenders there is no body he can really fight.

He is not a UFC caliber fighter, so yes, everyone is out of his league.

Dude fucked up by thinking he could just jump into pro-level MMA without getting amateur experience in. But that's obvious.

At least he got that pay day.

See, the matches, most of the booking and the roster are all good to very good but what bothers me is that some of the feuds are still literally "he randomly came out once and attacked me so we're now feuding", it is not as common as it was during the time HHH ran out of creative guys but it's still present and it sucks.

Basically Revival/DIY saved NXT last year.

The women's division is a billion times better this year, but I don't like AoP, and while I like Heavy Machinery, I think think they're a guilty pleasure for me.

Leave WWE, Mahonay! It's the only way to be pure of heart like me -- a man who was only subscribed to the WWE Network for 2+ years but then RENOUNCED his evil ways!

That doesn't mean NJPW should let him.

Linda has been in the Trump administration this entire time. I had to choose to ignore it a while ago. This shit isn't new.

Wrestling is full of trash humans.

I'm gonna watch SummerSlam this weekend because it makes more sense than the White House defending white nationalists.

I mean yeah. Fucking more important things going on. WWE is a distraction, until they do something like bring the Harris brothers back and form a White Supremacist team.

Mahonay, I was only joshing you -- and I love you like my third-born son OwensIsNow -- but I have my doubts you'd stop watching then. You'd be all about that H-Bomb, Data West-style.

Triple H said some exciting stuff on the conference call about wanting to create a situation where guys can move between Raw, SD, NXT, and even the UK to stay fresh and motivated.

Would be a really cool setup.

He mentioned this ~8 months ago as well, it shows you that the guy would like to do more stuff than what he's allowed to

I dunno man. Shit is awful. I'm burned out. I've been in constantly losing my shit in political threads for the past 3 days.

At least I can watch Fashion Peaks and The Ascension losing their shit about glutton.

Also a picture of Kane that says Fire Walk With Me.
