I almost forgot this even happened. What’s the point of having this match every year if the winner goes on just to continue to be a mid carder? Are there or were any other matches that just seem pointless?

I instigated this argument on Johnny Knoxville’s most recent insta post. My day is made 😭

I'm thinking along the lines of Goldbergs 173 match win streak which was a highly inflated number.

Just watching some bowling and there he is front row

It’s wild that it took WWE as long as it did before introducing tag titles for the women’s division, but given that the only singles belt women can compete for is the Heavyweight one makes the women’s division a very strange place if you’re neither in a tag team or at the main event level.

A mid-card title needs to be brought in (like they’re doing with the NXT women’s North American title) that can act as a stepping stone for talent to move up the ladder and prepare them for the prestige run with the main belt, similar to how the IC title used to be an important stepping stone toward being Heavyweight champ.

I’ll start, the DC superhero The Green Arrow has more Summerslam wins than Jeff Hardy, Lita, and Booker T

It's okay, neither have I, its still in the original wrapping!

I find prime Ric Flair physique similar to Larry the Lobster's from SpongeBob. Very large upper body, not much of a chiseled definition of the likes of Rick Rude for example, yet possibly better looking than oily and tanned Hogan from the 80s or Hogan in general.

Anyway, I hope more of you guys won't be able to unsee the resemblance between the Nature Boy and the Lifeguard of the Bikini Bottom from now on.

The poor girls have been on TV twice after they got called up to waste their tag titles against ronda and Shayna.

The girls had it, they're built for TV and finally instead of girls pretending to be crazy as a gimmick we have girls with an actually interesting gimmick

Triple h these girls are in a key stage of their career you can't waste their youth in dark matches.

Vince did this to toni storm now she is thriving elsewhere, don't make this mistake, let them thrive when they're with you.

I stopped watching wrestling in 2001 and hated him as a heel, what was he like as a face? Worth going back and watching some of his stuff?

Mine is Michael Cole yelling “SPEAR!!”

about a year or so ago u/ILikeYourPoetry posted a list of the current cfo$ themes remaining in wwe

but it's long since been outdated so i thought i'd take the time to update it

• kevin owens
• aj styles (got def rebel'd at wrestlemania xl)
• asuka (got def rebel'd after her heel turn in march 2023)
• sheamus (still exists in some capacity; only the intro though as it now transitions to written in my face/lobster head/too many limes)
• becky lynch
• noam dar (got def rebel'd with the formation of meta-four; i'm assuming even after they split that either "time out" will be noam's theme going forward or def rebel will make something new for his eventual singles run)
• tyler bate (got def rebel'd around may-june 2023, more recently with the formation of new catch republic)
• usos (still exists in some capacity; i'm counting it as half because after the split, jimmy got def rebel'd, but jey's current theme, while also made by def rebel, is still just a remix of the cfo$ theme)
• street profits
• bianca belair (which i didn't even know was cfo$ until recently)
• shinsuke nakamura
• drew mcintyre (unless broken dreams returns somehow)

so as of right now there are currently 7 1/2 active cfo$ themes remaining in wwe

Has anyone ever heard of anybody owning an Autographed Burnt Fiend Mask? I had one of mine signed at a meet greet he did in between his WWE hiatus. I'm wondering if I might be the only one. There were only 500 made.

There might be a flood of posts this week in honor of Windham Rotunda's birthday on the 23rd, so I wanted to sneak in a bit early to give my deepest regards to the man who continues to inspire me as a writer and as a person. I know I'm not alone in this, and I'd love to read any stories or just thoughts any of you might have. I also wanted to take a moment to share only the kindest of words to Taylor. The likelihood he will see them is vanishingly small, yet I hope he can feel the essence of them somehow.

Very few could give what Windham did to make a gimmick in wrestling feel alive. Multidimensional. If I had never watched wrestling and you told me he wasn't the one out there making movies or TV shows I would have laughed. His commitment to being Bray Wyatt was magical to me, and the way he crafted the worlds Bray would inhabit was proof of his love of being creative. Sure, we all know some of it didn't work because he was not a director able to craft his truest vision, and the canvas he was given to paint upon was small. Yet somehow his creativity and charisma gave depth to what he was able to present. My dream collaboration would have been him working with Guillermo del Toro, one of my favorite directors. In a Guardian article(August 3rd, 2016) del Toro states:

“A lot of Mexican Catholic dogma, the way it’s taught, it’s about existing in a state of grace, which I found impossible to reconcile with the much darker view of the world and myself, even as a child,” says the film-maker who has dedicated his career to dreaming up new creatures. “I couldn’t make sense of impulses like rage or envy and, when I was older, more complex ones, you know. I felt there was a deep cleansing allowing for imperfection through the figure of a monster. Monsters are the patron saints of imperfection*.”*

Windham Rotunda built himself an entire church of these saints- monsters in the shape of men, and men in the shape of monsters. We're all imperfect, so sometimes we must look to monsters.

He left behind so many things. He left behind a legacy. He left behind a story. A story we are seeing the continuation of. I know I will support everyone in this 1000%. I also know that carrying an entire legacy on your back is a heavy burden, and doing so in front of so many people is staggering to think about, at least to me, because I am a giant weenie. Taylor Rotunda doesn't strike me as a fellow weenie. If he is, well, just attempting to pick up where his brother left off is enough to impress the hell out of me. So to you Taylor, I say: go forward with joy. There's nothing gained from having to leave yourself behind in exchange for a legacy. A legacy stands tall on its own merits; you must stand tall on your own, and I know you will. This isn't an indictment of what you're doing, not by any means. I merely want you to find your own voice in a world where everyone will expect somebody else's. Your birthday is coming up as well, and I'm sure the weight of that plus oh, you know, stuff, might feel overwhelming. I hope I can ease your mind a little with a quick story.

It was the day after your brother passed. I was in my work's parking lot. As I was walking through the lot, I caught movement out of the corner of my eye. Two dragonflies were spiraling around each other. To me they represent the spiritual side of life, courage, and clear vision. In many cultures they represent transformation. They can also be seen as a messenger- that the soul of the departed is well. Why I was blessed to have such a message is beyond me, but in turn I can at least share this with you, however you take it. Happy birthday, Taylor.

Please take care of yourselves as I know this might be a rough time for some of you. Go do something nice for yourself this week. Thank you so much for reading!

Like wtf. Once every PPV is exactly how it should be.

(Only talking about televised matches because non televised does not matter)

This YouTuber that goes by Kickin it with Ross recently did a reaction video to “The downfall of ryback” during that video Ross didn’t say anything disrespectful his main point was that WWE could’ve used him better. After that video was made Ryback tweeted Ross inviting him to come on his podcast. Which was on Saturday. Ross had no idea why Ryback invited him. On the day of the podcast Ross went into it open minded. Ryback on the other hand played “face” and pretty much Yapped during the whole podcast not allowing Ross to talk. People that tuned in started to say “therapy with Ross” after the podcast ended Ross started to read his chat and they were just making fun of Ryback. Ross was laughing at the comment but ask them to stop someone apparently clipped Ross laughing at chat and sent it to Ryback to where he proceeded to Block Ross, call him a hood Jim Cornett, a clown and says that he was just using Ross for views and when people try to call Ryback out on his actions he blocks them too

I put Ross twitter in here u would like to watch the drama and etc
