Seth Rollins Talks The New Version Of His Character

Seth Rollins was recently interviewed by Ariel Helwani of BT Sport, where he spoke about the new version of his character he's been playing on WWE television as of late. "In the beginning, I was kind of hesitant to just 100% go with it. But as I was just getting more comfortable in the characte...

Re: Sammy Guevara & Andrade El Idolo Backstage Fight at AEW Dynamite

How does Sammy keep getting away with bits? Get involved in an altercation, appear in the main event. Joke.

Not saying Andrade doesn't carry some blame here, because he does. But this is repeat situations that Sammy seems to find himself in.

Sammy Guevara & Andrade El Idolo Backstage Fight at AEW Dynamite

This may sound all too familiar as it pertains to AEW these days – but another backstage altercation took place prior to Wednesday night’s AEW Dynamite TV tapings. According to a report from TMZ Sports, there was an “altercation” between Andrade El Idolo and Sammy Guevara. Over the weekend, things b...

The Antonio Inoki Tribute

Now, it is no secret here that I am not a huge modern Japense wrestling fan. However, what everyone knows I am a fan of. Is 70's - 90's wrestling and the early part of that was dominated by two men. Giant Baba & Antonio Inoki, both from Japan. Out of the shadow of Rikidozan forming two top quali...

Re: All Out Post-Show Discussion Thread

The more that comes out about Sammy the more I think he’s likely a total prick to be around. His "teenage slang" comment about Sasha Banks, proposing to his then-long time girlfriend on national TV only to break up mere months later before dating a coworker and marrying her less than a ye...

What have the Butcher and The Blade ever done to earn a tag team title shot? They haven't been relevant in a very long time. This is what irks me. Why is AEW booking teams like this for tag team title matches and yet FTR get nothing. You cannot avoid that obvious forever. It's madness. Exactly. The...

Clearly that news was missing for the announcers in all the secrecy because Taz was continually talking about how Saraya “can go”.

Re: BRM Reviews the 9/21/2022 Dynamite (Grand Slam 2022)

Moxley winning is the right call for business. I'm no Moxley fan, but he cut a hell of a promo and having a babyface champion who is as over as Moxley is the right call to have made. In these circumstances, it's just right. Jericho winning the ROH belt only makes sense if like Cero said, it is used ...

Re: All Out Post-Show Discussion Thread

But on the Hobbs exclusion, I’d have Hobbs do something really heinous to Starks like attack him backstage and then have Starks cost Hobbs that match somehow even just a distraction. Starks is visibly smaller, he’d have been wronged and therefore more underdog and fans will enjoy it and accept it. ...

Re: All Out Post-Show Discussion Thread

I'm willing to excuse the title tournament entrants due to the combination of the circumstances around it and the fact that there is a theme with the entrants which makes sense, and everyone involved is the best fit with that theme. Tony did a good job with that. Otherwise, you wind up in a positio...

The reason we don't get the promised "sports-like presentation" is because... well... I think Tony's an idiot and in his mind that meant "we'll keep records, and have rankings!," where as the rest of us heard that and actually expected those things to matter and be done in a log...

The same goes for all of The Elite... The more stories that are coming out just go to show that love him or hate him, Jim Cornette has been right about the Bucks and Omega.

The more Adam Page talks, the less likeable he becomes. He somehow manages to come off as both a complete pushover/"just happy to be here" kind of guy and also entitled despite how little he has accomplished during his 14-year career so far. The same goes for all of The Elite... The more ...

You're absolutely correct... but if you're Tony Khan and you can find someone who will cause less inherent friction/be more acceptable to most people than JR, wouldn’t you do that?

Re: All Out Post-Show Discussion Thread

I don't think Ross is a good fit for the job. There are already people in the company who I'm sure won't listen to him because they think his views on wrestling are too old-fashioned, and even though that shouldn't affect the advice he gives in an HR job, that's not how human brains work, and there...
