Naturally I frown upon it morally, but if what he said is true and it was consensual and legal, I can't see why he was blacklisted so harshly.

The girl he picked up didn't rat him out, one of her friends did. The friend had the opportunity to take the room key from her if she felt like she was too drunk but didn't. It really came off as jealousy from the other girl that Marty didn't want to fuck her, and she ran and cried on Twitter.

Watching these old NWA and WCW really makes me understand and sympathize with why Cornette is so jaded with today's wrestling. I don't blame him at all. People in the crowd going absolutely apeshit for the teams that are over. Watching the background is fascinating. These people are hanging on the edge of their seats for every move. Sure you get big pops at certain moments in modern wrestling, but people definitely aren't as fully engaged as back then. I guess it's a symptom of modernity. There's no mystery in the world anymore. Everyone's attention span is completely burned out. I'm in mourning for a world that no longer exists and that I barely got to experience. I talked to my mom a bit today and she said it's not all in my head. She said she was sad I never got to experience a lot of that old world as an adult and only caught the very end of it as a kid.

It looks like a bunch of people who went out after work to have fun watching a show. Today's fans look like they come out to be part of the show, or to record the show on their phone so they can try and post any "viral" moments they can hope to catch.

We might be in for some very funny shit right now. Out of nowhere it’s Moxley vs Mike Bailey to open Dynamite. If this fucking Moxley puts over Mike Bailey as a fuck you to the others not putting him over that’s funny as fuck.

Moxley wins. Damn. I wanted the comedy of Mike winning.

Death Jitsu is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be... unnatural.
 
MVP and Speedball and Lashley and Shelton did a video on instagram together saying fuck you to each other and people are saying that squashes the rumors which is wild to me because of so many reasons, they could have had issues prior and since made up, it doesn't address the rumor of not wanting to lose to speedball it doesn't address the rumor of people in AEW not liking how HS act while being heels, it doesn't squash the rumor of not being willing to lose to FTR, it quite literally proved almost nothing but people are like dusting off their hands going ah wells that's that answered. What the fuck.
 
Brooke Hogan speaks to TMZ about her relationship with her dad. Seems like her stepmom's history with scientology was a major concern of hers. She comes off very level headed here. Sad she got work done. She was attractive enough to not need it.

Gunther has earned his spot as Taker's top guy in the company.

Lip fillers have been disastrous for the white race. Sorry to my white bros in the struggle. Once pretty girl next door types have been dropping left and right since the Kardashians came onto the scene.

Yikes. I remember her being pretty without the surgery. That said, I think she's the most sane Hogan compared to the rest of her family.

Fuck this ungrateful cunt. Hogan bent over backwards trying to get this dopes music career off the ground. Christ, I remember him on some show, practically begging people to buy her CD. And this is the thanks he gets?!?
 
Blackstar said:
That was all on Vince who changed it last minute to be a win for Brock. Sucks that it happened but what's retarded is that afterward Vince claimed that Taker was never concussed and was just in shock over the streak going to be broken.

Did they change it last minute because taker got Injured mismatch, because the moment he got in gorilla he passed out & got escorted by Ambulance.

No it was changed just before the match, Taker came in thinking that he was winning only for Vince to decide that Brock was gonna break it now because of not him, who else?
 
I am not paying for Netflix just so I can watch old Raw and Smackdown like I used to pay for the Network to do. I paid for the Network because all I wanted was WWE. Not whatever gay race communism Netflix is into. WWE Network was awesome but in today's enshittened times it's just too good of a deal for a consumer to be allowed to exist. Okay. Back to autistic and snobby PW torrent seedbox sites I go then.

Bret hating Gunther of all people is so fucking weird. Gunther is one of the most believable guys in all of wrestling today and his matches always make logical sense. But I guess that doesn't matter because his chops are a little rough. Bret is 100% in the wrong here.

I need to go re-read Bret's book, but I'm pretty sure this is an attitude he's had since virtually day one, and I'm pretty sure he was super critical of Dynamite Kid and LOD for doing the same stupid super stiff bullshit.

E: And I think the reason Bret is okay with gigging is because it's an agreed upon thing and is done in a way that minimizes potential risk (usually a small self-inflicted cut and I think shit like chops you can't control and can potentially injure someone accidentally is why Bret has a hair up his ass about it because it speaks towards the worker's approach to protecting their opponent. Yes, it is a weird autistic hair to be splitting, but Bret is a weird autistic guy when it comes to wrestling.

Unfortunately for Matt Jackson, the 'all-around' aspect of being an entertaining wrestler is about the circumference of an ant hug.

Kurt Angle 'worked' because he had natural charisma, a metric fuckton of innate athletic ability (making the juxtaposition of a guy who could murder you but also being a huge dork a big reason why it 'worked'), wasn't afraid to show himself getting mad or looking foolish (as opposed to those dang production guys), and didn't feel compelled to tell totally true stories of his family being concerned about the on-air depiction of him in a TV show intended for entertainment.

I never got the hate that the Bucks got, but man, they really are one trick ponies and the joke gets old after the millionth time it is told, doesn't it?

Angle was one of the few people that could pull off being a dork, comedy guy but then get intense and serious and you could believe and get invested in both.

My only knowledge of Speedball comes from when I was screwing around with GrokAI and fantasy booking and Indie weekly TV show with roughly the same budget as WoW Women of Wrestling. It suggested I try to get either Speedball or Cameron Grimes as my inaugural champ.

iirc he was in AAA for a bit but hit a travel ban to the USA that really fucked his career for a decade or so
