Rollins this past Monday

 

Babyface Kenny has got to be one of the worst promos in all of wrestling lol

 

sami zayn gave the most basic promo in Montreal and its somehow one of the best of the year because of the atmosphere

 

Stinky

 

it's not surprising - the only reason WBD gave AEW Collision was to get two hours of Punk every week

 

Considering the financial struggles I don’t see RAW making sense for WMD when they can get all of the AEW shows for probably half the price. That being said if they do pay for RAW, I see AEW courting Paramount or FX as potential homes.

 

uh this NXT spoiler is kinda super fucked up no? Ilja Dragunov vs. Ridge Holland ends in a No Contest. The match is stopped by the referee after Holland drops Dragunov on his neck. The medical staff check on Dragunov and call a stretcher to the ring. Dragunov is put in a neck brace and stretchered out. Ridge is concerned about Ilja’s health. For what it’s worth, Fightful’s Sean Ross Sapp indicates this is all part of the storyline.

 

I wish these deals would get done sooner than later so the IWC can move on to something else more interesting to conspire over, this shit is zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

 

Was gonna say; not sure signing a deal with WBD is even good for WWE when there’s decent odds it goes into bankruptcy by the time that deal starts.

Would be very on brand for WBD to throwaway a solid cheap property and dump big cash into a failed idea though. Would NOT want to be the company overpaying for wrestling right now when 5 years from now it’s gonna again be down 30% in ratings

 

Just watched last nights show. Great matches


Have we voted on worst promo yet. Cause I nominate that shit from last night

 

If this interests anyone tonight and you want a watch link, hit me up.

 

is ridge holland the dude that broke big e's neck? if not it doesn't really seem that out of pocket to me?

 

Yes ridge is the guy who broke big e’s neck

 

Okay yeah that’s kind of fucked up.

 

If this is the one where Cody was involved, then yeah, thats up on the list.

Its almost certainly an eddie promo of some sort...though that Hangman/Swerve promo before their Full Gear match is a top 5'er.

 

The absolute silence when he said "Big Billie Starkz" was as cringeworthy as any moment from "Bayley: This Is Your Life"

 

Okada, Vikingo, Ospreay on the same card


Go TNA

 

TNA's kinda magic these days, they can have a huge PPV card that largely features guys they'll never be able to sign. Shit, had they gotten a CM Punk/Okada match to happen, they could finally die happy as a company.

 

I'm gonna give weekly TNA a real shot
