Is the "Half-Time Heat" from February 1999 on the Network? Had a look through the PPV and In-Ring sections but couldn't see it.

What the fuck is going on with this last page?
Anyway, NXT this week was great and I marked the fuck out when Asuka hit the ring...so damned awesome.

I'm one NXT behind so I haven't seen it yet, but I'm going to NXT Dallas and I'm super excited to see Asuka. Like, she might be the person I'm most excited about seeing.

Other contenders:

- Bayley
- Enzo
- GABLE AND JJ

I'm so jealous you're gonna see Zayn v Nakamura live... that card is legit stacked and will put WMstar to shame unless they pull a major rabbit out of their hat.

jesus christ the ref is putting on more of a performance than the wrestlers

That sideways walk is pretty impressive.

Oh, crap. I forgot about Nakamura. Probably because I've only seen one match, buuut I'm really excited about him, too.

WWE raiding New Japan is going to get Okada paid:


So in US money they want to give him 1.7 million dollars over 5 years.


Also, that NXT Wrestlemania card is going to have high expectations. 5 of the 6 matches have 4 star minimum expectations.
 
I heard some folks were talking smack about my man Kane and also his counterpart, that Taker guy.

No one rocks the gimmick like Kane can, he's arguably an even better dead man than Taker because through some of the shitty storylines he's been saddled with any other wrestler's career would be dead yet he keeps on going.....

I really hope DBry stays as an on-camera character.

Possibly a face authority figure.

Yeah a Regal style face authority would be great and I bet Bryan would crib what's required from his mentor to make it work. Heel Authority on the main roster is well and truly over done, needs a breather.

Titus was also fined a huge amount of money according to labar

Eh, he doesn't need the money. He'd just give it away or spend it on homeless people, better for Vince to have it.

I just feel having both titles is pointless. Sadly WWE's plan with Cena and Bryan fell through. IMO the titles is just in limbo, it means nothing.

While Ambrose is stuck in the Reigns title scheme and creative aren't sure what the plan for Kalisto is I agree the titles aren't being elevated but that should change quite quickly with Mania around the corner.
Hopefully Ambrose has a big Mania match to hold onto the title and the whole LoN thing develops into a solid, entertaining backdrop for the US title.
 
Angle's wrestling Rey next month on a random card also featuring Chael/Bisping grappling, and Roy Jones boxing a fan, and Shamrock vs Severn

It's nice when a bunch of disasters come together for iPPV buys
 
Has anybody seen ROH at the Ted Reeve arena in Toronto?

I got a ticket right next to the ramp and against the guard rail. I assume that's a decent seat?

I only went to the one show two years ago but that arena struck me as so tiny that it's really hard to think of any seat being poor quality. You should have a great view of the ring no matter where you're situated.

Also, you know the WWE roster is depleted heading into WrestleMania season when this man is making his return trip to the WWE.com power rankings...

I saw Cena tweeted another squat video, though he mentions the weights in KG, does his gym use KG? I think that's his own gym, but it just seems weird to me since he's Captain America and I'm guessing all gyms in America use pounds.

Incidentally, my initial reaction to this news was, "Man, Cody Rhodes doesn't beat anyone these days. He's losing to Zack Ryder for crying out loud. He is truly the cure to 50/50 booking."

And then I looked up when Cody last won a match...

It was on WWE Superstars against Zack Ryder. Last week.

50/50 booking persists even on shows that nobody is watching.

If there was ever an example of why WWE should farm out talent its Cody Rhodes.

Hes young, he's been there forever, and he still hasn't found his path.

Right now he only has a job because of his father and the Vince likes how short his wife is.
