I'm sure Boots could go into how much Catch played a part in wrestling's expansion and sport in the UK and the original Snake Pit Gym was a huge part of it.

Boots literally has a gif of somebody shooting somebody up his ass on his twitter page...
BAH GAWD THAT MAN HAD A FAMILY
British Strong Style could be a top stable WWE right now.
Was a little annoyed at NXT Brooklyn that they just booked Bate and Seven as face Mustache Mountain again. They are infinitely better as heels. I mean I guess they just really wanted to be able to have Dunne and Bate wrestler each other again in front of a WWE audience, which I assumed was going to be the case.
On the other hand, I like them better in Progress.

They are all very short and only Tyler has a bit of bulk on him
Destined for failure on main roster
Yeah probably.
At least give them a run as a crew in the proper NXT storyline. I'd be happy with that.
Ayup, height really hurts alot of wrasslers.
Like having Drew McIntyre stand next to them. It just doesn't work.

Speaking of shoots
I never got a sense of how big Drew was until I saw him standing next to Roode. (Not that Roode was some giant)
>wants to grab the brass ring
>has clear, defined ambition
>has shown she can perform at the highest levels on the biggest stages
there is no hope

She's not even the greatest women's wrestler in the company right now lol.
Yeah, there was a reason Vince took an immediate like to him. Now he has more muscle tone as well, I'd honestly be shocked if Vince doesn't want him on Raw sooner rather than later.
I mean everything she says is true or close enough to being true.
If Progress could get their shit together for things like booking proper venues they could legit be an ECW sized promotion and be the first legitimate alternative to WWE in years. They've got the talent, booking sense, and a die hard fan base. I'd love for them to take off but I know it's an uphill climb for wrestling promotions in 2017. There's like a 1 percent chance of that actually happening.
Why wouldn't you talk yourself up like that in interviews? That's her goddamn character.
Bingo
They are also firmly wedged to the teat of WWE, so uh, scratch that one off the books.
Its crazy to think just how bad Vince books the women.
You would figure somebody like HHH or Steph would take pride in their female roster but it all goes to waste.
Whomever thought Bayley should lose in San Jose should be out on the street.
No questions. The move made 0 sense and killed a top selling babyface.

I'm seeing some dirtsheets basically says, Hunter fought a war with Vince over Asuka's booking on Raw.
Yeah
WWE goes out of their way to make sure everyone else has to feed into them. Keep them on endless life support so they can't take off too big.

WWE took both participants in the greatest NXT women's match ever and ruined both in under 2 years

Ember won't. She's crisper in the ring sure but Ember's character work makes Sasha look like Ric Flair especially on the mic.
LOL. Steph is legendarily bad when it comes to her meddling with booking ideas. She's almost as bad as her father when it comes to women. HHH is more of a feminist than her in a reality.

Oh sure.
I don't fault her for it. I just think it's funny because it's really really not true

I mean, she's mostly right.
But going on the internet and talking about it is a good way to get Dolph'd

Good way to have an exciting new gimmick?
Seriously, they've proven they have no clue. May as well get it off your chest and claim it was character work.

I can see why she's bothered by it. She and her friend have basically been used as material to keep propping Bliss up.
Lol there's like a 5 percent chance Dolph's new gimmick is actually different. He's "changed his gimmick" several times recently and it's always literally the same character and ring style.
I mean even though they've booked her horribly she's still kinda over.

I will say it's poor form to bitch that they trusted her to be a selling point for an overseas tour because it meant she didn't get to watch the MYC with her buddies in the front row.
Settle down, excelsiorlef.

The Raw Women's title is garbage. It's always jumping around. As far as Sasha Banks goes she isn't that great. She probably thinks she is the best because of her matches with Bayley in nxt. Now you are in WWE so either complain to management or deal with it.
who are we talking about?

I hope it isn't about Ziggler
HOW AM I GONNA GET THE CROWDS TO CHEER ME? AM I GONNA HAVE TO BE LIKE CENA AND WORK THE MARKS WITH EVERY FEUD? WILL I NEED TO COME INTO THE WWE ON A THREE MAN STABLE COVERING EACH OTHER'S WEAKNESSES? DO I HAVE TO LEAVE AND WORK THE INDIE'S FOR A FEW YEARS TO GET YOU TO LIKE ME?

I could have picked a better cut of that gif, but I like the sudden cut to Moe.
