They also confirmed Gargano, Ciampa, Gallagher, and Tozawa in the weeks leading up. Not sure why the website doesn't list them though. The website really isn't told much by the office, so I wouldn't hang on their word too much.

 

[Data West]

I mean, technically NXT isn't WWE. And it would have been weird for LU to

Spoiler

write him out of their shows

if he's going anywhere else, considering pretty much every promotion other than WWE and TNA (and he's not going there) would allow him to work for them.

probably a full time deal with NJPW

 

[serenewarfare]

Either

Or

The problem with that is that he already works for NJPW and LU

Spoiler

had him lose a match at Ultima Lucha Tres that means he can't ever return. He could come back as just Ricochet though, I guess.

Seems weird for places he has already been to be "big news" though.

I hope they give the Cruiserweights a full hour of the show. It would be perfect.

Spoiler

They won't.

Maybe. Does staying in NJPW qualify as "big news" though? He's been there for two years now.

not being on a full-time contract is what was preventing ibushi's push. if he signed a deal, njpw would be more likely to put a bigger focus on him

and we could potentially get ricochet vs kamaitachi and ricochet vs dragon lee



someone also floated the idea of him just being ricochet in lu which he could use to help build his name up more instead of having to go under a LU owned monicker

 

[Fox318]

Is there a consensus of Jay Lethal has been a good and profitable champion?

Knowing where you'll be working for the next few years is by definition big news. Not everybody has that kind of security, and even if he's staying in a place he's currently at it's nice when you have it.

 

[slightconfuse]

He also can't be on tv till LU season 3 is done .

So August 2017

 

[Zach]

Oh yeah, I'm going to Tegan and Sara tonight.

I guess. Something must have changed since June though. Meltzer seemed pretty certain that he was choosing between LU/NJPW (as in both at once) or WWE. A full-time NJPW deal wouldn't work with a LU deal. I doubt either side would allow it given no other guy is doing it. Maybe NJPW just came back and gave him a blow away offer though.

I mean yeah, but that match has been booked for a while. If they were keeping it a secret or something, why highlight him in the vignettes leading up to the division on Raw?

Alex Navarro, Jeff Gerstmann, and Dan Ryckert reconvene to talk the Cruiserweight Classic, NXT, the first two months of the WWE brand split, and how to tell if you're suffering from pro wrestling burnout.

I guess I won't be watching the RUSSO'S REVENGE WARGAMES MATCH tonight then.

 

[Sweeney Tom]

He also can't be on tv till LU season 3 is done .

So August 2017

Might be a month earlier but yeah, it being 40 episodes means even if he were lying about it not being WWE/NXT, he couldn't announce or even tease it for almost a calendar year. It's not something with regular TV.

Oh yeah, I'm going to Tegan and Sara tonight.

Jealous as hell. Love Tegan and Sara. Hope you have a wonderful time!

They're doing a sale for $30 for a year, and I'm thinking about it. I love GB but I don't know if those extra podcasts are worth it

I just bought a year-long premium subscription to Giant Bomb during this sale solely because of the Mario Party videos.

Giant Bomb sent out a tweet last Friday stating that the sale would last "through the weekend." It's still going on now, but not sure how much longer they'll keep it going.

But around 2000 the relationship began to fizzle. Friends say Levesque wanted children; Laurer did not. She was also jealous of the time Levesque spent with his parents and siblings during the rare days the WWE wasn’t on the road.

When she sensed Levesque was growing closer with Stephanie McMahon—the boss’ daughter, whom he later married in 2003—Laurer was crushed, telling numerous friends she’d searched Levesque’s briefcase and discovered a love letter from Stephanie.

“They wouldn’t have lasted whether Stephanie came into the picture or not,” Kathy (chyna's sister) says. “I have no animosity toward Paul. He was very good to Joanie. He cared about her deeply, but she just had too many issues.

“Still, I really do think Paul was the only man she ever truly loved. She was devastated.”

They are acknowledging the double pin from the women's match last week on the pre-show.

They can't even start Raw with the Cruiserweights.

They shouldn't do that. Build to it throughout the show.
