I'm happy I'm getting ROH on my local Sunday broadcast now. It's a fine little hour of athleticism.

Plus, y'know, I get to see Chuck Taylor maybe hopefully as a full timer. That's always a plus.

Pendragon beat me to it, but if you dont have ad blockers (bless your heart), just the match.

People are tweeting about La Sombra "stealing" Naito's 'thing' last night on SmackDown and using the hashtag #tranquillo.
I don't even watch New Japan and know that these people are retarded.

I just started watching NJPW, as i know have AXISTV. Its a okay show they put together for an hour. But i lost pop so now i really cant watch tna.
ROH..... They had their pick of the indies to crown their first evet Women of Honor champion, and they plucked a no body who looks to 50 years old......i dont get it. Seen 2 of her matches, not impressed.

But it has a weird start time, 6 on saturdays. Im still doing shit at that time, or i completely forget about it. I know 2 guys who work on the card. Spoiler, he showed up this Saturday as well, i didnt go either.

I just watched CM Punk's ufc225 fight (via free online stream, god no I'm not paying for that) and holy shit was that terrible. More like CM Junk am I right?

ON the bright side, that should be his last UFC fight. That was a ugly fight, not even close. I am with Rogan though, How much did Jackson get paid to keep that thing going all 15 minutes, cuz he really worked at carrying punk through the final 12 minutes.

I like that UFC is as worked as WWE. Jackson had said previously he only wanted to have a handful of professional fights. So Dana books him on the main card in a match that has a lot of eyes on it. If things go bad (they did) Jackson can carry the match to length so Dana doesn't have to fear another 1 Round bout and have to fill time. If there's negative press he can publicly "fire" Jackson along with Punk even though he already has the former's blessing.
It's a work brother.
Anyway yeah that match was fucking shit. What was with those kicks?

How about those punches that looked worse than Shane McMahon's? Or how his only defense to anything was to block with his face?

No, Jackson was just being a dickhead because he knew he had it won from the beginning. Which is why he was fired.

Does anyone actually believe any of Taeler "Begs WWE for a job on Twitter" Hendrix or is it only obvious to me that she's just trying to #MeToo a guy who is getting a lot of press lately? IMO she has zero credibility.

I have no idea. Wouldnt be the first time we heard a story like this in pro wrestling. And, i kinda dont care either.
But what kinda pisses me off is, she waited till he was crowned a 2 time ROH champion. What? She just remember or something? If hes pressing you to be his side chick or whatever, then call him out, not sit on it and wait till you feel is the perfect time to call him out on being shady.

It's all about timing. These kinds of allegations can permanently damage a man's rep & career, #MeToo is such a sensitive issue but I can't believe women would take advantage of that for personal gain. Actually, in this age now, I can't say I'm surprised...all about that 15min of fame. It's just so sick that someone would use this to get themselves really over and relevant. Think about the ones that are actually dealing with this abuse.
I mean. It's an ongoing investigation. Most I can really say in an unbiased manner is, big is true.

Of course, you know, if there is truth to it, then sure. He deserves what's coming to him (not unlike real1). However, it rarely matters if a person is innocent or guilty, because in the court of public opinion you are guilty every time. We'll see what comes up, if it's a nothing burger, Lethal may come out unscathed. Michael Eglin survived his ordeal after all.
As I've said Taeler does not have much credibility and her timing is really bad; it would be a shame to see Lethal's career over something that could be summarized as "fake and gay."

Obligatory Jon Moxley tryout match in iMPACT! Selfishly, I'd rather see him come back and experience the Callis regime, but I'm happy he's getting out of the WWE prison and into the freedom he prefers.

I'm happy he's leaving WWE as well, but for completely different reasons. Much like "DA BIG DAWG!", every time Dean has a match, it's a piss break match, flip the channel seeing what else is on match or when I had DVR, a fastforwad match. I don't have DVR anymore, so I don't record RAW or SD anymore (Nor do I watch it live) and TBH, I'm thinking about canceling my network script. Other than the big PPV's, I don't watch it and when Takeover is coming up, I binge watch NXT to get caught up. That's all I watch on the network really, and with rumors of a price increase coming up, I'm not sure if it's worth it. I find myself watching other stuff.
On a different subject. I watched a video on youtube about Impact, how they killed off Abbey? (I could have the wrong name) Guy who did the video admits he doesn't watch Impact/TNA/whatever it's called other than the PPV and it's not on his radar, but he heard that they did this huge segment to kill off a character with RoseMary(?) because said person is leaving Impact and signed on with AEW. He does say at first he thought it was a joke, just another dumb thing Impact is doing, why would they do this, etc, etc. But then he watched it and he was blown away. He gave Impact props for doing something like that. Said it was very well done, told a story that anyone who only watched that bit could follow and understand what was going on and that he was impressed and went on to say how everyone who is into wrestling is mostly bitching that they wish there was a company who was doing something different. He said that Impact is doing something different and it's sad that no one but really die hard fans are watching. He then played the whole clip (Which I watched) and ended his vblog type video by saying he might have to start watching more Impact to see what else they are doing.
It was a little a campy, gave off a high end B rated movie vibe, but it wasn't bad. Perhaps Impact has turned the corner.

Oh yeah man, that was them wrapping up the undead realm story with Allie. I love those cinematic shots, and I'm sure Allie wouldn't have signed off on it without wanting to do it. I know I'm "just a bit" of a diehard iMPACT stan, but this company is truly making some great strides. I even purchased both BFG and Homecoming @ retail because I believe in the vision and support it.
It was great. Rosemary, in her own rage for Su Yung, made one last lunge at her...and killed her best friend in that rage. Now, she's consumed by grief for her own actions but ...she only has herself to blame. Vengeance never pays. It was deep.
If they up the price of the network i will drop it and renew my GWN. I don't hardly even tweet WWE any more because it's just circular, it's not worth my time. Even Meltzer has said that iMPACT has a better show than RAW/SD right now and he's never given them props.
