Stolen from another message board but they should release that picture set on the Network's server to test out how likely it will crash from high traffic.

This is hilarious:

- Regarding TNA's deal with The Great Muta and Wrestle-1 that was put together by Jeff Jarrett before he left the company, it's said that if TNA brings back Vince Russo then that deal could be in jeopardy because Wrestle-1 wants nothing to do with Russo because they feel he is racist against Japanese because of comments he made while working for WCW and how he booked Japanese talent in WCW and TNA.

Hate for Vince Russo even hits Japan. I bet Muta saw what he did with Okada and said hell no for him every coming back to TNA.

Hell, Muto probably remembers his last stint in WCW when Russo was in charge. He came over to reinvigorate his career but got jobbed out to guys like Ernest Miller instead.
 
According to Meltzer, Toby Keith and Jeff Jarrett buying TNA fell apart because at the very last minute, Bob Carter demanded that Dixie Carter be kept with the company, retain "some power", and continue her TV character. Keith and Jarrett said "lol no" and took off.

That is specific enough of a request to be two things:

A: 'I'm not letting you assholes buy the company, so here's this request you'll never agree to'
B: 'I'm goddamn insane and my daughter is addicted to being an on air character now'
 
When dreaming I'm guided to another world
Time and time again
At sunrise I fight to stay asleep
'Cause I don't want to leave the comfort of this place
'Cause there's a hunger, a longing to escape
From the life I live when I'm awake
So let's go there
Let's make our escape
Come on, let's go there
Let's ask can we stay?

Can you take me Higher?
To a place where blind men see
Can you take me Higher?
To a place with golden streets

I know I was complaining about the whole 'lol, indy wrestling' thing just the other day and am fully aware that posting this gif does nothing to help my argument, but damn, this 'DC Dynamite' kid is going to face plant and die if he keeps this shit up;

Stro, you'd love this kid. Imagine the flippy-do nonsense of AR Fox paired with a Davey Richards-alike who's about half as tall.

Fall, can I break away
push me away, make me fall,
just to see another side of me,
push me away you can see,
what I see, the other side of me

No one can see anything on the other side of me
I walk, I crawl, loosing everything and waiting for the downfall
No one can see everything on the other side of me
I walk, I crawl loosing everything on the downfall.
Downfall, Fall.

Was Headstrong by Trapt ever used for a PPV? Seems like it could have worked really well.

(Fuck!)
Back off I’ll take you on
Headstrong to take on anyone
I know that you are wrong
Headstrong we’re headstrong
Back off I’ll take you on
Headstrong to take on anyone
I know that you are wrong and this is not where you belong
I can’t give everything away
I won’t give everything away

I think it was used for Bad Blood 2003. I recently re-watched a bunch of shows and remember it popping up.

I need to feel you
You need to feel me

So why's there even you and me.....

You're not the one for me, no

I love you...
I hate you...
I can't live without you...
I just can't take any more...
this life of solitude...
I pick myself off the floor...
and now i'm done with you...
Always...
Always...
Always...

That's hilarious and I can't blame them.

It just occurred to me we won't get to hear Diddy "I'm Coming Home" song 8000 times during WM this year. I'm so sad I feel like they took away sign pointing.

I find it funny that the 90s are cheesy now.

For the longest time it was the 80s that was so, and then 90s went up against everything it stood for.

Now look where we are....

I'm just old....

Update on Merchandising Sales:

n regards to WWE's top merchandise movers, John Cena is still far and away at #1 while CM Punk is far and away #2 overall. Punk is the #1 seller on WWE's shop website. Daniel Bryan is said to be the #4 highest seller. Two names that are near the top of the merchandise sales right now are Sin Cara and The Ultimate Warrior, whose stuff is selling well at events and online.

I'm amazed Bryan is that high with shirts like this:


Who would buy this. He needs a shirt people can wear without shame.

What's even crazier to me is that we're half way through this decade and it still feels like the last one to me.

No doubt. Fan art is a million times better. It's well... embarrassing.

Maybe it's a rib!

edit: Sin cara! wtf!

Miz needs to bring back the hat and gloves. I think that would really do a lot for him to regain popularity. That's the man that Maryse fell in love with.

Yeah, we're going to need an OT2. Yall are some yabberin mother fuckers this month.

OT2 will be all about NXT Arrival and The Network.

Miz needs to bring back his racist persona from Real World New York and maybe think about signing Coral to a deal.

Miz had that d-bag look to him then, which was something different. Now he's just a generic looking guy who makes ducklips and tries hard to be the late 2000's Jericho.

Sin Cara is proof they need more masked wrestlers

It's like printing money for kids

At the last show I went to, there was a kid and his did behind me in line and I started talking to his dad to kill time and the kid just starting watching like 2 weeks ago and wanted a mask, which are like 30 bucks. Shit ain't a joke.

I've fallen so far behind in this thread, it's become a monster the past 2 months.

I fell asleep during Raw and woke up to like 30+ pages to read, and that was during a Raw that was horrible by all accounts. The WBF gifs caused an explosion as well. legitshook.com has never been more valuable.

The impending Impact discussion should give me enough posts to read until lunch tomorrow at work.

Same here, I passed out at 9pm and woke up and saw the thread exploded, which means it's Raw after Mania season.
