Punk's entire tirade of the Monday after Rumble.
Man.....truth be stranger than fiction.

Yup, I'd hang more shit on him for being a prick but he is upfront about his attitude so I can let it slide for the most part.
Great interview, some really eye opening stories on there. Sounds like WWE stonewalled him a lot out of spite after he resigned and used his good ideas on/with other wrestlers.

Oh man,
Work or not or whatever Mr Complainy Pants yadda yadda yadda, I'm entertained as hell right now.
Vince had tears in his eyes when Punk quit.

So will this happen before or after the NFL is shut down for covering up concussions, not treating there older players who are having health problems or after the DEA raided them for doctors handing out pain pills to keep players on the field?

Man if Kaitlyn can do the moves Sexy Star can do.

Ugh, the stuff about PPV changing to Network is depressing as fuck. Like people already said, they need a union or at least some kind of representation to stop getting fucked over/around so much. Blind leading the blind.

WWE sounds really bad to work for . He pal you must got out of surgery get back in the ring!'

To be fair on this point he's the one the walked out on them and they did need to get things finalized what, a month after that. No need to work on the schedule of someone who broke contract.
Errr, he did quit.

Ryback is reckless as fuck . God damn. Dude killed punk
Dr Duncan Steel

Yeah I know I was posting as I reacted to what Punk was saying, and didn't really think things through. Still a tremendously fucked up situation in all fronts.

Yeah.
Two weeks ago in this thread: "Why did Ryback lose his push?????????????? PUSH RYBACK!"
Isn't that libel?

December Wrasslin OT | All I want for Christmas is a Staph Infection
Yep, Ryback is wreckless as hell and for such a jacked dude seemingly has trouble lifting a lot of guys. I still like him though and I don't really know why.
This business is what it is, sad to say. Worst part is this is the sanitized end of it. Some real shameful shit has gone down according to some old timey accounts and even in the Hulkamania era you'd still get occasional really violent confrontations over money/drugs/results what have you. It is carny as fuck.

Be sure to tell Konnan that Stro's his biggest fan.

Steph told the audience that Punk quit in that one segment in Payback when technically, he was fired on his wedding day. Call it a coincidence or whatever, but this is WWE we're dealing with.

WWE Doctors sound sketchy as fuck
"Do you have a concussion or do you want to go to Europe"
Edit: this lump story WTF, just cut the damn thing

Jesse Ventura tried to get it done, but Hulk snitched on him, and that's why Jesse went to WCW.
Its amazing that more guys haven't had more murder-suicides like Jovan Belcher.
But you know what Vince and the rest seems perfectly fine with the blood on his hands.

Again, this all from Punk, but whenever he'd silence HHH in whatever argument they'd ahve against each other felt kinda gratifying to hear as weird as that sounds.
Jimmy King

He hasn't really talked about Rock in a negative light... doesn't want to burn those bridges going to Hollywood*

or maybe Rock's 'ight
Meanwhile Hulk pretty much killed the business with that deal he signed with WCW.
He got 25% of PPV buys PLUS $600,000 per PPV he attended.
Well we know who wear the pants in that family anyway. But he does wear her panties.

Poor, predictable Hogan. Who knows, Cena might do the same thing if it keeps the WWE from going through changes.
Nope, the Union thing was in the 70's! What got Ventura over to WCW was...kideogames. Ventura had a likeness deal with Sega while Vince was Nintendo all the way with LJN/Acclaim. That and a bit of a row over royalties for the VHS versions of the PPV and Jessie jumped ship.

"I'm dumb as fuck" - The Ryback
The failure of the network really shows that they need an outside mind with a grasp on society and culture.
They fucking run a company that should make billions every year like dipshits.
MLS has way less viewers and they have a better TV deal. WWE should be content that people want on their channel since its DVR proof when compared to other content. But they have a shit TV deal because ad buyers don't trust the company and they view their main target audience as uneducated lower class whites that wouldn't purchase any product.
Network could have been great if their was a wrestling fan in every household but they diluted what made the product a hit in the 90s because Vince's wife wanted a senate seat. Instead you cannibalized your business and at this point you can't get the toothpaste back in the tube. WWE has lost alot of money this year and does anyone see it getting better? They don't have any new company to raid for talent and unless they want to bring back more old names or bring AJ styles in to paralyze people they don't have much to work with.
For as much as people think HHH will do a good job look at how far Bray has fallen. Sure Dunn, Hayes, and Vince were the guys who pushed Cena over but he was one of HHH main guys and he is fucking lost out their ever week and they just spent time to rebuild him.
Plus this shit is why Shane left. He had idea that could have revolutionized the business but his dad wouldn't let go so he said fuck it and left. Espically after Dunn ruined WWECW.
