Saudi announcement friday changing the game y'all 3:00 300th year of saudi arabia, cinema.
 
I just came across the information that Jeff Hardy wrote a 9/11 song.

These are the entire lyrics sung very slowly over the three minute and 30 second song

The song

How did he make a song about 9/11 so poorly I almost can’t tell what his stance is on 9/11(the spelling errors not being Jeff’s fault, whoever made the lyric video is completely fucking brain dead, but even if you listen, and the lyrics are actually supposed to say boy is he not saying much).
 
My involvement with Wrasslin' nowadays is watching old matches on YT, reading this thread, and occasionally getting into a stupid slapfight on FB in a wrasslin' group or two.

Anyway, I recently got into an argument with some dope who actually seemed to think that X-PAC was underrated.

X-Pac was the platonic ideal of dimeless, vanilla midget shitter. If he hadn't been able to ride Shawn and Hunter's coattails, he never would have risen above perpetual jobber status.

They wanted Warrior too but someone had to explain that he wasn't around anymore.

TKO is doing all this because they're in debt and WWE is a more reliable income stream. Supposedly once things are paid off they'll lower prices again but that's doubtful at this point.

Fuck this dickhead. You should've considered all this when you were gassing up Tony Khan and making excuses for his diminishing returns and falling viewership. Tony picked a fight, got personal with both Hunter and Vince, then cowered when Hunter started taking them seriously enough to swing back. At least when Bischoff's ego got out of control, he at least point to the two years of successful counter programing against WWE he managed to accomplish. AEW beat NXT, the developmental brand, ONCE, and that was enough for Tony to think that he had Hunter's number. He thinks he's got everything figured out, and part of that is due to Meltzer constantly glazing his shit television show and overstuffed PPVs.

Meltzer turning into Maldzer because his preferred style of wrestling is being proven to not be a draw continues to amuse me. Who’d’a thunk that you’d need more than just a million flips and spots to be a compelling program?

Which makes it really funny whenever this pops back up in my feed.

Modern Wrestlers thinking Meltzer’s Star System is the Be-All-End-All is one of the worse things to happen yo wrestling.

Dave was the biggest cheerleader for AEW being a serious competitor to WWE, but now that it's obvious AEW isn't competition he's going to pretend Tony is a victim because he wants those checks to clear.

Plus there's always the reports that Tony consults him for booking advice even though he has no financial stake in the company, which explains Meltzer's spergouts. He basically got to armchair book a major promotion and it failed.

They could end up running WWE into the ground if they go the route of "milking the fans for every penny" too hard. It seems to me, between the UFC and WWE, they could make back their $$ in time with responsible financial decisions, but most corporate types can't see past "now money". Faggots.

Clearly the answer is more shows in Saudi Arabia, it's a money printing machine

For now at least their strategy is working, the shows are selling well even with rip off prices. No reason for them to charge $100 for a ticket when they can get away with selling them at $300.

Pricing out, or at least the potential of it, a large portion of their fanbase is not a good idea. It's probably the more hardcore that are able to afford the lower prices, and just counting on rich, fickle cunts to keep things running could backfire. I guess time will tell.

I presume WWE do the same thing that AEW does where if you buy tickets a few months ahead of time then you pay a premium because they know anyone doing that really wants to go to the show.

Prices on even fairly decent tickets drop significantly for AEW a few days out from their shows because having someone paying something to fill a seat is preferable to tarps.

I hear Cena wants to use a similar poster to this to promote his final match.

would have been way more excited for Arisu in this match, TJPW gets stuck in these patterns with their world championship and have it flip between the same 3 or 4 people constantly, for awhile it was just like Yuka challenges at a big show, then if she loses Miyu challenges next big show, Then Rika, or if Rika is holding the belt Shoko. Now since some of those girls are gone or not as reliably around Miu got put into the mix, and Mizuki. I like both Miu and Mizuki but I can already see where this is going where they have endless title shots for YEARS until fans are tired of them and TJPW finally uses someone newer 5 years too late. This is an issue with all of Japanese wrestling, some societal pressure to not capitalize on the young wrestlers too early. It sucks.
