Hooooooly fucking shit, thanks for posting this, putting this on Watch Later. Gonna be amazing. Goddamn great quality too! Fuck that's beautiful.

Thank Missy Hyatt, she's been posting a bunch of Mid-South stuff on twitter. Anywho, enjoy, it's a real fun show, even if the main event is just Bill & his boys beating the tar out of the bad guys for ten minutes or so.

Bootaaay a friend mentioned he wanted a seriously fucked up death match DVD. Any recommendations?

Gotta go with the BJW Blood & Death History set - 4 discs of fucked up Japanese deathmatch wrestling from 1995-2006. Not sure where you can buy the set nowadays, but all four discs are up on youtube;

Wow, Missy is a lot of fun on Twitter.

Also speaking of Twitter, @Mookieghana made a spreadsheet detailing merchandise sales AT the venues themselves - turns out WWE is making more sales with fewer attendees than ever before. Interesting stuff if you like stats.

Mookie's an awesome dude, worth following. Total stats guy who takes his wrestlenomics seriously, and the world is a better place for it.
 
I felt so bad for Vincent when Cameron/Ariane made him try out :(

Yeah, but I think it really brought the two of them together more. He did it with no bitching - and even though Hugh Morrus was soft on him compared to others, he did what he could and showed some vulnerability.

Good episode. And now Ariane knows. Knows she doesn't always know best.

Hahah oh Vince


Also: Nikki Bella posted the photo below on Instagram of a blood-stained towel after she took the nasty superkick from Tamina Snuka on last night's RAW. There was some concern that she may have lost a tooth but apparently she didn't.



Bless that kick.

Vince is the weirdest guy if he thinks that's some kind of great rib.

I knew that superkick must have hurt. Her selling was way too realistic. I mean she was still holding her face while she was getting pinned.
 
Is it wrong to think that Alicia Fox is still the prettiest WWE lady? I got a lot of surprised "Really?"s last night when I mentioned it among friends but they're probably all secret klansmen.

He's the best!

But I might like Eva Marie's dad more.

NO! FLAT NO!

Legendary catchphrase!

Also for the new page, WWE's Holiday video this year is awesome: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oymKtBBl6y4

Did we miss the ep where Eva Marie explained to her boyfriend she tried to cheat on him with Fandango?

And yes, her dad... her family was awesome.

And prefer last year's song, but this is a cool video.

Sure gif of Cena will be incoming from someone?
 

Aiii

So not worth it

It's not wrong at all, she's a good looking girl.

Good thing about WWE is they got a whole bunch of different types of women so everyone is happy.
 
She's athletic and good at the things she does, but she's very limited. She needs training with SDR.

She... is training with SDR? Alicia Fox still regularly trains at the performance center.

She was good in her last few appearances on NXT, not the best but very good and it has been a long time since she was regularly on it. It's hard to say if she's much better now when she is part of the big group of divas stuck in 6/8+ tag matches and battle royals.

I see some sort of aquatic tank in one of the YouTube preview images on my phone. What is in this aquatic tank? My guess is electric eels.

Just watched the trailer...

That's some fucked up shit!

Good guess, but it was actually piranhas! Easily the most insane deathmatch Big Japan have ever booked - you had to trap your opponent in the piranha tank for the referee's 10 count. They tried all sorts of animal gimmicks in the mid-90's, such as the scorpion deathmatch and one match where Matsunaga had to 'wrestle' a baby crocodile.

First thing I thought of as well. No way is she selling that, she must have gotten legit shook.

Also her eyes teared up and the interaction after the finish. Wonder if Tamina will get some heat for that. The Bellas are after all the company's favorites.
 
WWE needs to be more promo intensive like the late 80s.- Put that picture-in-picture back onto our programming. Throw to the back with someone who lends a bunch of class to it with a distinctive look and voice. Sorry Renee Young, you're too boring - we need a new Mean Gene, a person with a unique look that classes up the place. Young is classy for sure, but doesn't stand out in any way.

We must fight.

That sharp drop off in international attendance numbers should be of great concern to them, I'd say.
I also suspect the live merch numbers are up due to them charging more than anything else. Wonder if they charge more for Cena merch at a live event than they do on their website.

They would be running a dumb business if live merchandise wasn't more expensive than online orders.

No wonder Vince and company think they need to walk through how to download the app every week.
If people aren't going to take the minute they're waiting in line anyhow to pull up the WWE app and price compare to see what they're buying should cost 50% less then they clearly need step-by-step instructions.

I think Tamina is somehow related to the Rock. He was able to get her a role in Hercules, I'm surprised she isn't Divas champ.

People don't really buy or wear Mickey Mouse ears outside of the Theme parks.

She is pretty, and her little sister is even hotter in my opinion. Too bad she isn't with WWE anymore if I remember correctly.

Could you imagine the Total Divas after that? Should have happened.
I would have watched, most definitely.
