Cody talked about "the match beyond"...I wonder if they'll find a variation of War Games to run

 

Beyond Meat on a Pole Match I am sure.

 

Did Oney Lorcan leave WWE?

 

The Twitter name change is weiirrrdddd, but he's still posting about Orlando, and hasn't done a press release or anything. I'm just now reading this week's Observer, but nothing has been posted on their site about him leaving. Probably just a weird WWE name change?

Edit: nothing was mentioned in the Observer.

 

It's probably just him having a bit of tongue-in-cheek fun with the whole Jordan Myles/ACH thing.

 

That seems like a poor joke...

 

I mean, it's probably more the name thing rather than the whole situation. Plus it fits in with his general social media persona.

 

Full Gear did same numbers as All Out. That's great for AEW!!

 

Happy 21st birthday to the greatest thing that Jim Johnston ever created.

 

watching Wrestling Classic right now (not with the Prichard pod watchalong, but seeing they did it made me google what it was and got me interested).

kinda like it despite it being almost horrible top to bottom. it's a 16 man tournament with 10 minute time limits on the matches. if there is a draw/it goes to time, neither person advances. a whole bunch of small matches over just shy of two and a half hours.

i think that format would make for a really fun modern Network special or something with the current roster. just not a Saudi show.

 

Dynamite Kid is juiced to the gills here

 

I watched that a while ago and ill never get used to seeing Terry Funk in this era of WWF.

 

Dean Ambrose is all of us: Jon Moxley: WWE Was So Incompetent They Made Me Leave All That Money | Fightful Wrestling

"The whole time from when I came back to about the beginning of the year, I knew I was leaving. But I was pissed about it. I wasn't excited to leave, I was bitter about it. I can't believe that they're going to make me leave. I can't believe they're going to make me walk away from all this money. Can [WWE] not write just one good storyline? Can they just give me one good promo? Does everything have to be fucking stupid? Does everything have to make me look like an idiot? For fuck's sake, you're going to make me walk away from all this fucking money because it's not like I wanted that money. Yeah, I want it, but I'm not doing that shit. So I was pissed. I can't believe they were so incompetent that they're going to make me walk away from all this money. Jesus Christ, now I have to go back to the indies, fuck it, let's go," Moxley said.

 

Wow starting the show with Corbin hype package ....

 

I can’t believe that I still forget that smack down is on Friday’s. Not even home to watch it

 

Roode and Zigs getting the promo time they deserve

 

Bluniversal Championship

 

I didnt think the belt could get uglier...but here we are. The red stripe looks like some leftover from a fans Create-a-title in 2k.

Bray Wyatt is your champ; give him something cool like Daniel Bryan's hemp belt.

 

i like the blue one more because it no longer looks like a fruit rollup, but instead a blue airhead. and i like airheads

 

I still say if they are smart they’ll let NXT get the clean sweep. They may be able to gain some extra Raw/SD viewers that way. And then you could even use it as a reset for most of Raw/SD in the sense that they want to have better matches and focus more on wrestling (that’ll never happen but a boy can dream)

 

NXT will lose every match they are in

 

That’s why they’re not smart

 

Formal Taker

 

Daniel Bryan is so fucking good.
