Amazed at how dumb some indie wrestlers can be. Heel dudes stay in character after a show and make fun of a girl with an eating disorder, then when people give them shit over it they double down on their idiocy. I didn't think they could be any more stupid than when they thought a heel group in the UK using Guy Fawkes masks was a direct rip-off of their oh-so inspired gimmick, but apparently so.

IT'S THOSE SAME ASSHOLES?!

HAHAHAJJAJAHA

 

[Vylash]

You've bullshitted me for the last time, Dominos.

If you want to get caught up for Ultima Lucha. They released a video that recaps the entire season.

it's pretty lengthy

They really do have the best presentation of any wrestling show on TV.

Yeah, it's pretty pathetic. I like Darius as a wrestler and he seems nice enough when I've spoken to him online, but dude needs to get a clue. Love that one of them defended it by saying "Flair called people fat".

I've secured the Dominono and I want to pay it forward, friends.

Submit your best Rusev and Lana love song and I will pick a winner. You're not confined to a specific genre, but I will be selecting the winner based on which song best speaks to:

A) Rusev and Lana's tribulations and, ultimately, their love.
B) My personal taste.

I will accept 10 entries via YouTube link. The winner will receive a code for one free Medium 2-Topping Handmade Pan Pizza from Dominos, carryout only. Some say it's a prize, some say it's a curse.

Please denote your entry with the following photo. Good luck.

Gawker is a media empire that, if they did indeed engineer the leak, not only violated Hogan's privacy by posting and posting about the tape when there is literally nothing about it that could be argued as newsworthy, on its own, but used its resources to try and stack the court of public opinion against a man with a justifiable legal grievance against them in the hopes that it might influence the ruling of a legal court. That's if they did it.

But even if they didn't, Gawker is a site that has gotten rich and famous by helping to degrade journalism down to the absolute lowest common denominator. Even without the leak, I'd argue that they are the far bigger pieces of shit, in the grand scheme. Hogan being a racist piece of shit is worthy of him being scorned and ridiculed, but it's a shittiness that he did a good job, for a very very long time, of keeping it almost totally separate from his public persona, which is about as much as you can ask for from a closet racist. Gawker has built a media empire out of what could reasonably be called intellectual blood money, and even if he takes them down, their negative influence will be embedded in whatever form journalism takes in the next few decades, guaranteed.

Spoiler

Granted, one has to also factor in Hogan's ill-treatment of so many that he's worked with in the past, not to mention the probable reality that he has done wrong by black folk he's worked with in the past carrying such attitudes, and of course him having been so integral to the enrichment of the racist, sexist pricks that run the wrestling industry, but still, even with the worst assessment of Hogan, I'd say it's a pretty even 50-50 split.

Gawker is just the tabloid newspaper industry applied to the internet writ large. It's nothing new, nothing shocking, they aren't the anti-Christ. They are just people following the footsteps of the most successful and profitable form of news of the 20th Century.

Gawker didn't ruin shit, it was ruined yonks ago.

Was it that JD Sports guy

@bryanalvarez
Dave Meltzer will be on CNN between 3:30 p.m. and 4 p.m. discussing the Hulk Hogan situation -- the news show with Brooke Baldwin. RT~!

BIG DAVE gonna drop the "well I just dunno!!!" on national TV.

Xavier with Gooteks and Mike Ross HERE

Seb? Nah, The GZRS know what they're doing. They're not complete morons, they just appear to be

 

[somedevil]

Well Adam Rose is teasing the return of the Leo Kruger gimmick.

https://twitter.com/WWEAdamRose/status/625718945220161537/photo/1


So is this anything? Is he trying to get his old character back since the Adam Rose one is dead or is he going to be the new 3rd member of the Wyatt Family under the Leo Kruger character?

 

[BronsonLee]

They seem stuck in their own mind. Very sad.

And Gawker clearly engineered that shit, since they clearly had it and sat on it until it would benefit them to have someone else report on it

 

[Jeevesmeister]

Oh, there's obviously only one contender.

 

[RP912]

Wondered what he said about Rhyno...

Could you imagine the shitstorm if they had revealed it all around Mania 31 season?

From Russia's Finest...

Walk on through a red parade and refuse to make amends
It cuts deep through our ground and makes us forget all common sense

Don't speak as I try to leave 'cause we both know what we'll choose
If you pull then I'll push too deep and I'll fall right back to you

I'm shocked CNN didn't have Dave in a studio

 

[BronsonLee]

Would've been much harder to deny it if they had done it then. Now, they can claim ignorance a bit

 

[Sweeney Tom]

Him doing it from his bedroom is more realistic. Dave doesn't want grandiose

 

[Fox318]

Well his website looks like its from 1995 so you may have a point.

[Ninja Scooter]

Dave SHoemaker made an interesting point on the grandland podcast about the Hulk Hogan stuff, does this news, along with all the heat about the Confederate Flag of late, mean there is no chance the Freebirds make it into the Hall of Fame any time soon?

 

[Fox318]

A reporter got a one on one with Hogan already!

Reminder that this is his office

I love him but I'm convinced if he were in a giant fancy place like CNN HQ he wouldn't know what to do with himself

[Sweeney Tom]

Could it really be worse than all of the last 3 Terminators?

 

[Sephzilla]

Could it really be worse than all of the last 3 Terminators?

A Bella twin would be cast as Sarah Connor and the other twin would be T-1000 pretending to be Sarah. It can be worse.

I'd be on board if Rock played the Terminator though

Google Image Search is, unfortunately, not returning the gif of Meltzer and Tenay front row at a show together from the 70s or 80s.

EDIT: Found it!
