I watched Wrestle Kingdom 10 the day after it aired, but I just now got around to watching New Year's Dash. Weird watching that already with the knowledge of AJ and Shinsuke leaving. Obviously it was played out with the knowledge of AJ leaving, but Kenny Omega referenced taking on Nakamura for the IC title, so I wonder if his exit wasn't known at the time?
I'm watching total divas right now and that show is so fucking werid, is it a work or a shoot? I just don't know.
It was know, they just thought that they could work one more match
Parts of it are a work and parts of it are a shoot. I even think they switch back and forth on which is which sometimes and it's hard to tell the difference.
I think for the most part though, Brie and Bryan are a shoot, don't know about Cena and Nikki, but I'm pretty sure the other diva drama is mostly worked.

I'm just looking forward to the Fortune reunion in WWE.
Half of it anyway.

He did another interview on his decesion to leave:
So they knew since December that he was leaving.

Has WWE considered Jacksonville for a Wrestlemania? I've heard it's a dump but they hosted a super bowl not that long ago. They could also put Ford Field back in the rotation by next year it will have been 10 years since the last one. Atlanta's new stadium will be ready by 2018 so you know that will be in the mix.

More than likely I'd imagine. He might lose it in some silly multi-man match during Mania itself. (To someone like Strowman or Styles or Nakamura.)

AJ Styles was born in a town that's like 10 minutes from where Vince McMahon was raised and 15 minutes from where Linda was. Which was 15 minutes from my first job out of college.

If they get their intro taken away, they're absolutely doomed on the main roster, though.

That is a good deal! Shame the peso is so devalued against the dollar, I cannot justify purchasing them. Going to save my iPPV money for their shows at mania weekend.

He had the looks of a beefy Gene Simmons with the moves like Mick Jagger.

A few time, I thought for sure he would break his neck because he gets to near the mat when flipping. Almost as if he curled too late or something. I guess once he got up in age he decided to stop but hebalso go bigger so.

Based on the positive feedback on Rumble 93, I started watching it. Scott nearly killed one of the Beverly Brothers with the belly to belly.

Yeah, NXT awards are more legit than the Slammys, not that it's saying much though I think I voted for Sasha for performer of the year, even if she spent much of the year on the main roster she was still NXT's best overall performer.
Steiner in his prime could've and probably should've been a world champion, he was like a prototype Lesnar, it's kind of a shame it took until the Big Poppa Pump era and near the end of WCW for it to happen. Of course Scott's short fuse (roid rage?) probably played a part in why it didn't happen.
She also has the best facials.

1993 is a very fun year. Wrestlemania IX is a bad show but the rest of them are very exciting. It's the biggest year of change in the history of the fed.

Just thinking while watching the new Orphan Black promo that maybe they should've tied Sister Abigail to the Undertaker/Kane story instead of getting the dumb theatrics that were already hokey 20 years ago.

Something about the blunt "Vince hates Tyler Breeze" comment among all the other tidbits is hilarious.

I miss Sherri. She's dressed very beautiful
Full Sail Arena? More like No Sail Arena. But seriously have they gotten better since the 2010-12 ROH days?
WM main event sounds fine but I think we're quickly approaching the point where people endlessly speculate, fantasy book, try to predict booking, etc. to where if the potential booking is in fact predicted, it will result in a "predictable boring boo!" criticism. It's more the viewer's fault for doing that mental game. Reminds me of the ending of Breaking Bad, where all the guessing and speculating made it less satisfying because you were unintentionally taking all of the surprise factor out.
You mean his light breeze that gently nudged him towards not being a complete jobber? Dude was Ascension levels of DOA.

Well I got 2 more PPV to check out. Thanks Blue!!
KOTR 1993 and Summerslam 1993 are dope. Survivor Series is kinda a bust but it sets up one giant angle and it has All American Undertaker.

You're making me want to start all over. I just finished 93-95 like a month or two ago. I'm going through 96 slowly.
These guys are fighting for a common belief and I will join them. You all will rest in peace.
It's so cheesy but you gotta love it.
Another piece of news is that they had no backup match for the Undertaker when Cena went down.
So who faces him now?
Not counting NXT talent all they really have is Owens. If they use some of the new talent coming in would the casual fan byte at Balor vs Undertaker, Styles vs Undertaker or Nakumura vs Undertaker?

Only person I can really say is.......
Kane.
He was completely and totally fucked up until he quits/gets rehired almost immediately. For every good match he has two or three bad/disappointing ones. Then he's pretty good for most of 1994/1995/1996.
I think Balor is more than possible. Those abs are meant for the big stage.

I wonder if Sean and Sherri had a little behind the scene relationship. Hard to keep it professional while she's out there looking stunning.
Damn you guys got called out.

Yup, if you guess every possible permutation of matches that could happen, you don't get to complain about the booking being predictable.
