That's right, Vince, you scumbag.
Seriously, thanks for the link. I enjoyed the interview.

damn i wanna know what they said at the conference
This is basically my impression after listening to her on Austin's podcast. He seemed to pussyfoot around her BSing quite a bit. I mean, I don't blame the guy, but she was clearly blowing a ton of smoke. I'd say she was disrespectful if she didn't seem so genuinely dumb.

Oh man, if I was Kenny King, I'd just go back to school or something.
Worst case scenario for him.

Is that him tapping out?
He'll probably just focus on Chippendales full time. Dude is 33.

Walked out of the company while he was still a tag champion by going on TNA without telling anyone. And then burned the bridge by saying the did a piss poor job trying to get him to stay.
I will say this though, Davey Richards did worse. He burned at least three bridges (NJPW, WWE, ROH).

He already got 4k?
Man, people will believe this dude when he says anything. He better not be lying.
Then again, Axl Rotten.

That guy's the mod/founder/enabler of the site. He's the one guy you should be able to believe exists.

To recap today's events so far, Lucha Underground has signed some sort of a new deal with Univision.
ROH is coming to Destination America as a lead-in for Impact. Presently, it will just be tapes of their existing shows that are in the can.
TNA had a press tour scheduled and canceled it, but they have a company-wide conference call soon.
For some comedy, here's the F4W board thread about the ROH on DA deal - http://theboard.f4wonline.com/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=184144
Wrestling Observer Live notes -
ROH-DA deal has been in the works for months.
ROH show will be the previous week's show airing on DA.
DA likes the viewership that wrestling gets, but isn't happy with the ad rates that TNA gets them.
ROH's deal time isn't fully known, but it's believed to be until the end of the year.
ROH is happy with the deal because this lets them expand the reach of the ROH deal beyond Sinclair markets.
ROH feels like they won't be able to use Joe - but WWE hasn't told them anything yet. They have a plan to use him or to not use him.
DA has no say in ROH's creative direction.
Bryan's heard things about TNA and DA in the past, but wasn't really sure about them until today...and they may or may not involve "certain e-mails".
Thanks to this deal, NJPW gets to be on both AXS TV and Destination America.
ROH is officially the number 2 promotion in the US between DA and their syndication deals.

Did Meltzer drop any hints about roh /da? Seems pretty big to miss it
Oh damn. sucks for him. I guess Davey said some questionable things about wwe roh too? Wow he's fucked

Someone tried to rabble rouse the 3edgy5me crowd over at ********* to get a couple of WrassleGaffers banned.
EDIT: Welp, should have assumed that would get a censoring really.

Davey didn't burn a bridge with WWE - they felt they had enough guys like he and Eddie around, so they didn't sign them.

I don't think thats official yet. The link that was being passed around is six weeks old and is not an announcement of season two. LU season two is very likely but nothing has been said about when or where it will air.

Not that I've seen. Which is kind of hilarious that he didn't know anything about this.
But we all know by tonight he'll have some carny dirt sheet response: "I knew, but didn't want to say anything given the situation with TNA and I"

Most people are saying this happened very fast. Even TNA didn't know about it until today.
I like to think Davey and Eddie are the guys Triple H is talking about whenever he refers to wrestlers not working out when they don't want to adapt to the WWE style of doing things.

An hour long conference call where she managed to say nothing about the situation. Sickening.
That alone would be enough to make me quit
I think the DA deal is mostly to get ROH into major markets that don't have Sinclair like NYC and Chicago.

Heel I feel that posting a video of a black man begging for a curb stomp isn't going to help race relations in this community.
By earning the same for DA at a fraction of the cost.
ROH is a lot cheaper to produce, plus it's already being produced for Sinclair so DA probably got it quite cheaply.

Its cheaper than TNA
By not having the initials of their company be TNA for starters.
