Saudi Arabia and racist beer on the ring mat! They gotta go for the trifecta and get a Trump University ad on there

 

Guess punk won’t be at next year’s rumble

 

The same way people said he will never come back to WWE?

I think we already know that Punk's morals are not always solid.

 

He hasn’t gone yet

 

The women’s Rumble next year is gonna be an absolute embarrassment. Doing a throw away event there is one thing, but taking one of the biggest shows of the year is another thing. That’s such a huge bummer.

 

Has it been reported the actual money wwe gets from them? It has to be absolutely astronomical for them to do their top 3 event in Saudi fucking Arabia.

 

They just renegotiated and got a larger deal. The talk was either Rumble or Mania there and I guess we got the answer

 

I mean

punk working at WWE already means his “morals” are whatever you want to call them but they aren’t steadfast

His paycheck is funded by the Saudi shows in some capacity whether he wrestles there or not

(I like punk BTW)

 

Yeah and with UFC doing more Saudi events this is just gonna get worse. TKO is in deep with them. Wouldn’t be shocked if a WM goes there eventually.

 

Oh my fucking god

 

Rollins recently said it best to Punk in that press conference "whose the bootlicker now bitch?"

 

I think there is a high chance this Mania we are getting both Cody/Cena and Roman/Rock.

 

Takeshita has new theme music for WK19, and it fucking SLAPS. Also go out of your way to watch his match with Shingo. Incredible.

edit: apparently it’s his OG DDT Pro theme:

 

I saw the finish on Reddit, that last forearm he hits on Shingo looked nuts

 

It wouldn’t happen but they should move the women’s Rumble match to its own PPV to save it from dog shit Saudi Arabia.

Making/forcing 30 women into sleeping bag outfits because god forbid someone have to see a woman’s elbow sucks. Have the men’s royal rumble match/PPV in Saudi and the week before or after or whatever have the women’s match/PPV in the states.

 

I beg they use this on Monday

 

Just the coolest looking mf

 

I think I'd be more okay with Copeland calling himself Cope if he was introduced as "Cope, the rates R superstar" instead of "the rated R superstar Cope".

 

I am watching wrestling on Max, this is cool

 

They are really calling this man 'Cope'

 

It's so funny to randomly see people from your area on the other side of the world. Tons of westerns here with GCW shirts too.

Kenny Omega merch is selling like crazy.

WK was a bit underwhelming, hopefully today goes better.

 

I know they’re running smaller shows now but seeing Dynamite is in Atlanta and not Duluth in February I was curious where.

Didn’t even realize the Dream don’t play at State Farm and have their own 3500 cap arena they share with the Skyhawks right next to the airport. Gonna try to go but that part of town is gonna be a tough sell for the wife
