He'll fit in here perfectly then.
Oh man, if what Hugh Morris did is true and Jericho is defending him like that, then... jesus. I thought Jericho was a neat guy due to the first two books of his I've read...
I wonder why Hugh is such a douche nozzle. Maybe as The Fall of WCW said, dude had tons of concussions especially several at a row. I guess all those hits in the head cause him to treat people like caca. =/

Maybe giving a never-been cunt insecure with himself because he couldn't succeed at a "fake" sport the keys to other wrestler's futures isn't the best idea.

I think it's more likely he gets off on some pathetic little power trip.

Aja Kong ain't nothing to fuck with;
Or Bull Nakano, for that matter;
Love the way she almost derisively smacks Hokuto in the face, Bull clearly didn't give two shits about the Dangerous Queen or her reputation.
A good chance, I'd say - but I'm mostly basing that on the fact that the fat one totally has the same body as Rob Lynch. They could be throwing a curveball our way, though. I had also thought it could be Danny Garnell and that Damon Moser chap.

At least the Lucha Dragons vs Bo-reeze match was cool.
Arena felt fucking empty too. Especially under the WM sign.

All this time I never knew Bull Nakano became a professional golfer.
This Mania is just weird all around, the top 3 matches:
-Invisible Brock vs. Roman Reigns.
-Invisible Sting vs. Triple H.
-Invisible Undertaker vs. Bray Wyatt.
Oddly enough, the fourth main event Rusev vs. Cena, includes a guy that claims you can't see him.
BUT YOU CAN!

It's also pretty hard to see Daniel Bryan buried in that multi-man ladder match. But I think that was kind of the point.

Couldn't keep a straight face on camera so they let him have some time off, probably to do that comedy tour that Ziggler signed up for.

They must not be making him look strong enough. He should probably face the entire roster in a handicap match next week (aside from Brock), and win.

The WWE's booking of Roman Reigns is weird they want him to look strong but, he's eatem two pinfall losses recently one to Big Show the other to Seth on Monday Their constant need to put him over is hurting him and their continued weird booking of him continues to hurt him.

The booking by the company is weird and nonsensical all around, in many instances. Very weird.

Man Cena got treated like trash so good, crowd booed him HARD when he was doing his "get knocked down get back up" spiel, then Steph just comes out over top of him.
Oh man, she slapped him down so hard.
AxelMANIA BABY!!!!!!

For all the jokes of making Roman look strong, they're even messing that up. Him dramatically overpowering Kane and Big Show in tests of strength looks stupid when compared to Brock tossing people into the air and letting gravity do its work.

Bunch of UK promotions booking Bob Holly and I feel like I'm the only one who couldn't give the slightest of shits.
To be fair, all he's saying is "30 years ago, people treating you like trash under the guise of training was totally fine and normal and it should be now, too."
Which of course is dumb as fuck and ignoring the fact that WWE is a company that wants to pretend it's a huge deal and not a ring in a basement in some house in Canada.
Well if you think aboot it Chris Benoit was one of his best friends. And we all know what happened to him... Former World Heavyweight Champion, that's what. So these babies better start growing up, and stop callin mommy about the booboos they got from coach Morris. They are here to "Take a spot", not be one on the mat.

I'm pretty sure Jericho was never forced to wrestle other guys naked while training. Or was put through the shit Hugh Morris has been repeatedly been reported on doing. It also really disappoints me in how much Jericho has shown himself to be a tool over the last few years.
The saddest part about this Bill Demont thing is how it's obvious that old school mentality of "working hurt" and bullying someone to "respect the business" is still in full force.
And it's even more aggravated by the WWE trying to pass the public image that they care for their workers and take the upmost care of them.

Can we get a list going for "Really, Jericho?"
-Complained on Twitter about The Rise and Fall of WCW winning the best wrestling book award from PWI in 2014. Sour grapes that his third book didn't get it.
I wonder if that type of attitude will ever truly be stamped out. It exists in almost all sports. It's bullshit and unnecessary, and is more about one person trying to show their power over another.
The Demott stuff is gross. Hope he's fired.

Terry Funk on today's Ross report
It was a grab bag segment of randomness, but it was all acted very well. I'm on board Axelmania. Not sure how much mileage he can get out of this shtick, but for the time being Curtis Axel (CURTIS EFFING AXEL) is getting a reaction and is delivering the most entertaining work of his WWE career, and some of the most entertaining WWE TV in general.
Didn't know this either. I'm imagining her golfing in her wrestling gear and facial tat. Funny contrast.

They're being really coy about announcing Bryan as being in the Ladder match, and I can't figure out what their angle is. Then again, I haven't been watching the show. Is it more obvious there?
He's been involved in most of the segments involving the IC title, especially on last week's Smackdown and this week's Raw. All but confirmed he'll be in the match, I figure. I'd rather he just face Sheamus after the latest spoilers regarding who else is going to be in the ladder match, though.

I was thinking at least Rob Lynch as well, the skinny one who defended the title on Sunday was definitely not a Riot, but I wasn't really getting a Lynch vibe from the larger guy either. No clue at this point basically.
I like the idea of bringing back the Riots to deal with The Faceless personally.
Who does give a shit?

Yeah, I don't want to see Bryan in that ladder match. It's already too bloated. I would actually rather see a feud with Sheamus over that.

That is a good idea - I'd always thought they'd return and fight Jimmy as he pretty much sacrificed them to save himself. The skinny Faceless guy immediately put me in mind of that Sebastian, although I've yet to see him wrestle. Falling behind on the ENDVR shows.
A whole bunch of people, apparently - my twitter timeline was full of people excited to see him at Tidal & Southside. Personally, him being booked on a show has the exact opposite effect for me.

He's pretty green, obv, but crisp and the potential is absolutely there. The Zack Sabre match was real good.
Southside do seem to go for the most random range of imports. They're the only people that seem to be bringing Candice & Joey in, can't someone book them in London :'(
what did demott do?
i'd rather have taker/sting
So I finished watching "Birdman", and I have a question.
Were Keaton's characters
a metaphor for his craziness, or was it legit?
Anyway good movie, wasn't the dark comedy I was expecting after seeing the ads, but still a very good somewhat depressing movie.

It was
bullshit, most prominent example being the taxi driver complaining about not getting paid after he "flies" from the rooftop to the theatre. However, at the end, we're led to believe he can actually fly when he jumps out of the hospital window and Emma Stone looks up and smiles. Personally, I think he plummeted to the ground anyways and it's just as SWERVE.
It definitely wasn't packed, but I didn't notice a ton of empty seats or anything.
The entire time I just couldn't help but think about how it felt like the B show. A ton of tag team matches no one cares about, the top stars in no matches. It was just strange. I had a free ticket to the show, and I can honestly say I'll pass the next time I'm offered a Smackdown ticket.
