WTF is Balor club, I know where it comes from, and you guys post pics of T's all the time; but in the US it means nothing to me. It snot like it been introduced as anything here.
 
Hart ripped on Michaels potential retirement in his Calgary Sun column. When Michaels said he was retiring due to his injuries, Hart asked if it was the injuries he's got or the ones he's likely to get now that wrestles have seen in the documentary how he double-crossed his peers. He talked about Michaels back pain and wondered if it's the pain from injuries or the pain of knowing he sold out everything he once believed in. I can understand Hart being bitter at Michaels, and the reverse is obviously true as well, but this probably was the worst timing possible in bringing it up and sounding bitter

Bret always shootin

Finn Balor was the leader of Bullet Club in NJPW before he left Japan for NXT.

Balor Club is a play on that. Right now it's just a gimmick for his fan club and his merch. But it's also teasing future plans, with some of the former members of Bullet Club (Karl Anderson and Doc Gallows) singed to WWE now. AJ Styles could potentially be involved as well, as he took over as leader of Bullet Club in NJPW before he left for WWE.
 
Really,hope the Balor Club leads to the return of the Goat theme

Bret must be so fun to be around.
Unless you're Flair, Hogan, Triple H, or anyone in the Kliq.

Seems very miserable. All his life he knew nothing but wrestling, then it all ended,and he couldn't do shit. Luckily he didn't do anything drastic.
More than that. The brief period from 99-03 was terrible for him and his family. Owen dying, getting the kick from Goldberg which promptly retired him, the stroke, Bulldog dying, his mom dying, and then his dad dying. It would take a major toll on anyone.

Is it possible we could see Seth return at wrestlemania and cost romam Match ? Keeps roman safe. Sticks to vince bullshit of reigns. N keeps to original plan off seth vs triple h. Summerslam then turns into triple threat
No way Seth does any wrestling at 'Mania. A run-in, hit with a chair, run-out, maybe but why waste a comeback if he's not going to be back in the ring wrestling which is what he's best at.
Seth is main eventing summer freakin slam because he's Seth freakin Rollins
Even SummerSlam could be too soon to be main eventing a PPV for the type of injury Seth sustained. I'd rather Seth just take 10 months off to reduce the odds of him re-injuring his knee.

Yeah, I figured he decided not to go the "easy" route is because of everything happening in his family. Be strong for the family in general.
 
Oh Groovy, I apologize then. I thought it was just 2/3. Not a best of 5 out of 2/3. We can either run it back or I am perfectly fine with you moving on and taking my place.
 
The Von Erich family, fuck.
Was reading a tibit about how their father was this morning. Parents can be the worst influence especially with their expectations.
I doubt we'll ever know, Bluekaveli. I doubt we'll ever know.
I keep forgetting you're watching the oldies.

WWE.com has published a new interview with Tommy Dreamer, during which Dreamer talks about working in WWE Talent Relations in the mid-2000’s and attempting to bring MMA fighter Kimbo Slice to WWE. The following is an interview quote from Dreamer:

“His manager sent me a very impressive demo reel. Back then, it was on a VHS tape and I was totally in awe of what I was seeing. It was all street fighting and him cutting promos. I had no clue who he was and I was captivated once I saw him.”

“I was told, “We’re not going in that direction,” and “How long would it take to develop a talent like that?” I don’t know if he would have went to developmental system at the time or if he [Kimbo] was thinking, “Hey, I’m gonna get signed and go to the main roster,” but it was kind of shot down quickly.”
In other words, Kimbo would've been an opponent for Taker.

Speaking of the Von Erichs.. I never knew this until now, but Kerry Von Erich aka Texas Tornado, had his right foot amputated in 1986, years before his WWF debut.

He kept it a secret, and according to Wikipedia, even showered with his boots on to hide it.

(But, wouldn't that raise a question - "Yo Kerry, why you showering with your boots on?")

Kerry was going to be THE breakout Von Erich on a national level. He had it all, except for calm waters. One of a kind talent.
