General Wrestling Discussion

Outside chance knowing the madman, but could it be something with Vince? Guy’d never admit if he wasn’t well, but between his age and stress could his own health be taking a hit?

More realistically, most likely it’s related to Trip’s surgery, but either way all the best for them.
Could also have something to do with their marriage.
 
In just a few years Paul has lost his position in the company, NXT, and can no longer wrestle if he wants a proper retirement match. I wouldn't be surprised if he's going through depression or something. You know, that thing @CyrusHowler laughs at. Stephanie doesn't seem like the type of woman who wouldn't be there for him for that.
 
Steph has a myriad of reasons to step away and the means to do so. She's held a very high level corporate position for over 10 years without a break in career. Burnout is absolutely a thing and maybe she's experiencing it? Maybe she saw her oldest kid is entering their junior year of high school, an age where kids are starting to look at colleges, and she wants to be there to help make a good decision/accompany them on college tours? Maybe she wants to be with her husband who had a near-fatal heart attack?

She has her reasons and we likely will never know it.

Like I said before It's all just a matter of waiting for Vince to stroke out
 
Speaking of how pozzed the community is, Botchamania decided to feature the chief goony beard man himself hbomberguy in an episode, despite the fact that as far as I know, hbomberguy has zero interest in wrestling. Was Jim Sterling unavailable or something?

doesn't Clawshrimpy have an ongoing feud with him?
also today is
MAY NINETEENTH

Really surprised it did not actually crack 1 million. It makes me think that the only thing that will do it is a Kenny return. Basketball last night was pretty much blowouts for one side.

I mean he could wrestle one last time. It would be like IRL Randy the Ram.
 
It looks like around 100k viewers fucked off at the same time Cody did and never came back.
This is on average of what they usually get. I'd be more concerned if they started to get 800k. It's rare for them to crack 1m views.

There's also NHL having their playoffs now so that's going to decrease it.
I know I'm late to the party but I can't believe Tony thought having a guy fall off a 20 foot ladder during a deathmatch in front of Martha would be the best way to honor Owen Hart's legacy.

I just hate random deathmatches being put on as card filler and it's probably one of the worst things about this decade's wrestling.
It was the main event so no way was it "card filler". It also wasn't a deathmatch.
 
Takeshita is pretty fucking legit. Omega must be absolutely chomping at the bit to get to work with him, he's going to be a huge deal in a few years time.
Takeshita looks infinitely more like a World Champion than Stevie Woltz.
 
Also lololol 2k removed Carter from the DLC
Damn. That doesn't bode well for Carter/Wentz.

I don't know if any of the thread regulars have any more legal know-how than me, but I'll ask anyway; could Nash plant a lawsuit on Kimber Lee for trying to get him fired and defamation? The guy already mentioned someone tried to get him in shit with the pic and it's obvious his cunt ex-wife was just following suit. MJF can be a character witness!
