They aren't doing live Christmas shows this year

 

God damn I'm so happy for Ali

 

Gotta wonder if they're starting to phase out 205 live

 

Hopefully they put Cedric on one of the main shows soon

 

I'd like 205 to stay with the cruiserweights making more and more appearances on SD/Raw

 

Some guys on 205 are not particularly cruiserweights as much as really good wrestlers, I get moving some of them to the main roster. Hopefully gulak is next

 

I guess since Drew was the one who posted it originally, someone had to take the reigns on the re-posting gimmick.

 

Hey guys you hear that Nick Miller was released

 

Noooooooooooo!!!! Not Nick!



Terrible News

 

Jimmy Jacobs in on WOL right now talking about being a WWE writer, it sounds so damn complicated and stressful.

 

Also said Vince makes things very difficult, shocker lol.

 

Watched both Raw and SD this week for the first time since I think the September PPV (Hell in a Cell?). Raw obviously has tons of issues but I still say their biggest problem is that it's 3 hours long. So much filler. The women's gauntlet match was decent enough though. SD was much better. Becky is the arguably the best thing going in WWE right now. So glad that Mustafa Ali is part of the regular roster now and even better that he's already seemingly getting a decent push. That guy's in ring ability is second to none.

 

I hope Walter slaps him out of mid air

 

NXT continues to be the best. Fuck Gargano. Fuck Ciampa. Black better get his big babyface moment before getting called up or this whole storyline will have been a waste.

 

There was an article yesterday on yahoo entertainment about all the hate David Arquette is getting for being announced for that NWA show. I didn’t know he was in his 20s during that whole WCW stuff. I always thought he was older for some reason, which is what made me think it was even more ridiculous for him to be wrestling now

 

Duke and Shafir weren't that bad on NXT for only having a few months training.

I cannot wait to go to this. Got ringside seats.

 

Man the steel cage match was fantastic. This story is just brilliant.

 

If this could please happen at takeover brooklyn, that'd be great

 

Is there gonna be a takeover brooklyn this year? I imagine the mania one is probably just gonna be "Takeover: New York" and the Summerslam won't be in Brookyln anymore.

Timeline wise, I figure if Black is winning the NXT title again it'll probably be in Phoenix. If he loses, best bet probably seems to be to run Black vs Ricochet for the NA title WM weekend and then call him up otherwise the NXT title story is gonna start to get rather repetitive.

 

– According to The Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Nick Miller of The Mighty requested his release. His wife gave birth to a child in August and he went back home a few weeks ago and decided to stay. The door is open for a return.

 

The WM weekend Takeover is Brooklyn

Edit: It's listed on TM as Takeover: New York and Takeover: Brooklyn 5 on wikipedia
