The WRASSLIN’ Thread

Definitely clickbait, but from a business sense, I can’t say I disagree. You barely wrestle and yet expect millions in a contract? That’s crazy.
The guy was the crown jewel of the company very recently. Basically this would signal that you'll never see another Cena or Undertaker.

Can you imagine the coup it would be for AEW to sign Roman?

While I agree this almost certainly won't happen, the change in tone for how WWE is being reported on is notable.

It’s definitely become more corporate and feels less connected to the communities who bought into the company back in the 80s-early 00s.

Saw another article talking about how the company felt colder than before with Vince. Vince wasn't exactly known for being a warm dude.
WWE’s New TKO Ownership Called “Colder Than Vince” After Latest Talent Cuts

It'll be interesting to see how it all works out. AEW has kind of stopped signing every WWE release. Could be their will be an opportunity for a 3rd promotion to make some hay if WWE keeps up the cuts.
 
Anyone been to Rupp Arena before? My son is kind of on a John Cena kick now and wants to see him again. SmackDown is at Rupp next Friday, and I’m thinking about going.

Is it an easy area to get in and out of? Any hotels close by?

Thanks!

Vince may not have been the warmest guy, but to listen to the retired guys and vets, it was still a family. Vince did take care of people. He was a despicable human being some of the time, but he did the right thing for people who deserved it. Whether it was covering Dr bills, paying someone's rent, covering their kids surgery, the stories go on and on. It's not personal anymore, it's just business.

Say what you will about Vince McMahon. He was a bastard, but one that loved and took care of people inside WWE. TKO couldn’t care less what happens with talent.
 
According to this SI article he is. On WWE’s app, it is also showing him there.

another good sign is his merch will be themed for that city cause he is doing the last time is now gimmik......if he dont have kentucky themed merch I would be worried
 
Okay I have a question for those more hardcore/veteran WWE fans. My kids and I were rewatching the Rumble since it’s got mostly everyone, I thought it would be a good exposure. Why are some of the wrestlers able to step out of the ring on their own and that not be an elimination? I was always under the impression that if two feet touch regardless of the circumstances it’s an elimination.

They have to be throwed over the top rope and touch the floor ..going between the ropes isn't a elimination..

So even if they go out of the ring on their own, touch the floor to do whatever, then get back in, they’re good?

Edit:
I think it was Braun Breaker who rolled himself out and walked around the ring to another corner, then got back in. It was just really weird that he was able to do that.
