Savage and Liz reuniting at WM7.

There has to be more to the story. Even if Vince was just pissed at the guy touching him (and it's well documented that people in wrestling freak out if someone grabs them unexpectedly), a 90 day suspension that will cost the guy a WM payoff seems like a ridiculous overreaction.

I wonder what the viewing stats ended up from the territory dump they did before Christmas. It's hard to tell if there hasn't been any more added due to low numbers or due to them apparently having a schedule of dumping one bucket at a time.

There's shows on there where the picture or sound glitches out for a few minutes and they run the "sorry for the bad quality but it's the best they can do" crawl on the bottom. I think there's just a certain point that if it lasts too long they don't want to upload content that poor quality.

Not quite WWE TV related, but they put a video up on their YouTube channel of Nikki Bella already hitting the gym. Considering how little time has passed since her major neck operation, that seems like a really bad idea.

It seems like accidentally-on-purpose double booking yourself would be pretty low on the list of things a company would never bring someone back for. Dude's probably in line for a top level push in New Japan, no way ROH would not take him back unless they found dead hookers in his trunk.

Lol Bryan's at the show semi-live tweeting and mentioned they did a " Thank You, Fans" video which no one in the crowd bought.

What strikes me as odd is so far they seem to be pushing HHH vs Brock when all indications point to WM being the Roman Reigns Debutant Ball.

Does it upset you that Steve Austin got the Stone Cold name (or more accurately his wife at the time did) from watching a documentary about an actual real life murderer?

I think it's probably the most important feud in WWF history. For one, Austin's early promos were what shot him from "that dude who used to be the Ringmaster who had an endless feud with Savio Vega" to the biggest star the company ever had. Then not only was the double turn great, it set up the US/Canada stuff which led to DX, which finally led to HBK/Austin passing the torch to kick off the Attitude Era.

There's photos going around on Twitter of a new set ROH is using that looks way more professional with screens along side the main one and a professional looking lighting rig. Perhaps Sinclair is seeing the value of adding a few bucks to the budget after all? Or could it be their deal with New Japan could be growing beyond talent sharing? It might be tinfoil hattish of me to think that there may be more than co-incidence that suddenly after two of New Japan's top guys go to WWE that ROH suddenly has the budget to upgrade their presentation and sign guys to contracts that were being used on both promotion's shows.

I've always wondered why people do the double stomp. It doesn't look much fun for the person taking the move, and it seems like the person executing the move is on the verge of breaking both legs to avoid killing their opponent.

Finn rolled his ankle doing the double stomp at an NXT house show, hopefully nothing serious, but they have TV taped all the way to WM weekend so I'm sure he can rest if need be.

He really is everything a great heel should aspire to be. Hateable, great facial expressions, and he truly seems to believe what he does is right. If I was an aspiring young wrestler I would be watching every interview he does for tips.

I remember watching clips from after Tyson's surgery and wondering why Big E was just apparently randomly chilling at their house. It all makes sense now.

Clarity in his writing has never been Dave's strong suit. It does seem like he's been making a more concerted effort to protect his sources. I get the feeling from how he talks on the WO shows that he may have inadvertently burnt one of his sources and is trying to make sure that doesn't happen in the future.

Short version for the non US members of the site, Martin Shkreli is a trust fund dudebro turned Pharmacy executive who made news for jacking up the price of life saving medications by 1000% or more just because he can. Also for being the winning bidder for the only pressed copy of a Wu-Tang Clan album. I mean, just look at the guy in the video seen here: http://gawker.com/martin-shkreli-invokes-his-fifth-amendment-right-not-to-1757080115 His smugness, the perpetual smirk on his extremely punchable face, he's every bad guy in an 80s teen movie come to life grown up to be a CEO. He's out-heeling anyone in the business today.

The console apps (PS3/PS4/360/xbox one) usually update within a week or so when a new category is added like the Collections section.

Taker in 1991 was way, way better than Braun Strowman.

Also doesn't winning the title and not defending it until the big show where everyone expects him to lose it back make HHH the 2016 version of Ron Garvin?

The main reason I could see Taker not wanting to do a match with Strowman is that, yes he's had programs with big lugs before, he's 50 years old and way more broken down than he was when he was facing guys like Mabel in 1995. I wouldn't be surprised if he wants someone who can hold up their end of the deal a little more at this stage of his career. Plus is Braun f'n Strowman. I know Vince has his big guy boner in full effect but even he gives up on big guys when they are as bad as Brauny is. I don't see this as a match that would launch him to super stardom.

Bryan said on WOL that Vince wants to do Taker/Strowman but he (Bryan) is holding out hope it won't happen since Taker's one of the few who can say no.

Of all the rumors/gossip/whatever about Steph, I've never heard even the slightest suggestion of doubt about the kids parentage. Maybe Kanye West should let Marty know bringing someone's kids into a Twitter beef won't end well. Also the last time I saw Marty, his ankles were so bad they were almost at 90 degree angles. There's probably a very good chance he was out of his gourd on pain pills and misheard what was said.

it really is a shame Miz figured out how to be a great heel long after he was pegged as a comedy geek. Also JBL is officially way more irritating to me than heel Michael Cole ever was.

Back to LU, I like how just when it seemed they were ignoring Vampiro's mental issues after the opening segment he went into the "Bubba Ray after powerbombing someone through a table" trance when Pentagon showed up. I guess they're going to do a split personality deal with Happy Announcer Ian and Dark Master Vampiro.
