That shit is so fucked up. Not everyone is lucky enough to be like Xavier Woods, they don't have another means of making cash.

Wouldn't hold up in court.
It's why when they asked Del Rio about it he was like 'ha, i'm not worried about that.' Someone who's been around knows that shit don't stick. Feel for a green kid that gets fired and doesn't want to risk going to court over it though.

Sheamus eliminates Bryan in the Rumble. Roman eliminates Sheamus. Sheamus vs. Bryan at Mania, assuming we don't all drown in our tears before then.
I disagree. Their faces right now are fine.
Orton, Reigns (who is liked by a decent part of the crowd) Cena, Ambrose, Ziggler, Ryback...oh, and D-Bry.
It's the heels. It's basically Rollins and a ton of part timers/complete jokes like Kane and Big Show with the only good mid card heels being Wyatt and Harper.
The whole independent contractor shit with no health care is bullshit.
pretty much. the no compete clause and the independent contractor things contradict themselves
i mean, they didn't even have guaranteed contracts before Nash and Hall jumped to WCW.
'Carny' isn't a made up word like legit shook. It's a word wrestlers use to describe some carny shit. And pro wrestling, especially backstage, is some carny ass shit. No matter how much they try to dress it up. They try to act like a real business to their investors, but they act like the fucking Ringmaster(not that one) to their workers. And as wrestlers get younger and don't have that territory 'trial by fire' system that helps them develop needed paranoia and being able to haggle a better deal, they become all the more susceptible for Vince and company. It's not like The Road Warriors or Rick Rude or other dudes who liked wrestling but worked as bouncers. These kids grew up watching it and it's all they've wanted to do, and the WWE will take full advantage of that. It's why Cena hasn't pushed more to get out and save his body and make some money doing shitty TV spots or just retire early because he grew up a mark for the business and the WWE in general.

Watching Mania 30 for the first time (Jumped back in to wrasslin after I heard about the squash match at Summerslam.
That Bryan-HHH match is fantastic
Shield match was a piss break
Battle Royal was a clusterfuck until the Fandango spot. Then it was awesome. Maybe its because I wasn't around during Sheamus's push but the crowd didn't seem to like him. Cesaro stole the show. Crowd was fucking cheering for him when their was 25 men in the ring.

Either way, you can't enforce a one year no compete unless the job involves some very sensitive secrets that you could take to a competitor, wrestling is not exactly ticket science, so that's obviously not the case here. No judge will allow that no compete to stand since it takes away all of a individuals income for a while year, what is a wrestler going to do of he can't do wrestling or MMA?
Yeah, that's just not gonna happen.

My Uhaa exposure is limited (mostly some movelist videos and a match where he throws AR Fox around) but I was impressed. Hopeful if true
They've had no complete clauses that have stuck in Hollywood before, so it could work in Wrestling, but only if they were fully contracted employees.

Slightly down compared to last year but basically even. They were on there way to beat 2013 but the last quarter killed them especially after Survivor Series. The audience bailed after the Raw when the authority left and Sting did not appear.

Remember when Sheamus won the Royal Rumble so he could open Mania and beat Bryan in seconds?

Coincidentally, the last Raw I watched too. The authority may have left, but it was still the same shit product it has been for years now. I'll tune in periodically, but damn they need to adopt the NXT formula for the main shows.

Bryan could face Brock or Rollins or Cena at Mania. It'll be Sheamus.
