Never mind, found it. Also by “Someone” I think you mean, well at least how I just found it, his public page reposted it.

Obviously the bullying, harassment and assault culture needs to disappear forever, and sadly that’s been part of frat boy athlete culture since there have been frat boy athletes. But I think you’re being a little harsh on the older generation looking at what they deem as introverted and anti-social behavior from the younger generations though. Though to be honest, I’d imagine the older generations probably thought the body building disciples spent too much time in gyms, and not enough time functioning alcoholically day drinking the pain of the night before away! Yes the gamers do stick with their cliches, so to be fair they are being social to a point, but I can see it being weird to someone that’s used to going to restaurants and bars with fellow co-workers on a nightly basis for seemingly the new generation of performers to be more interested in things that they deem anti-social.

On the flip side, Hunter wanted a brick and mortar site, something important to Scott when it comes to accepting any sort of HOF honor.

It’s now the “Legacy Inductee Wing” Unless Dave wants to do it in LA next year, Batista’s induction is also on its way.

Probably trying to keep the it on “I’m still a narcissistic sociopath heel” point. Yeah I know I’m over thinking, but it keeps the idea that MJF was so despondent and full of his sense of narcissistic betrayal over Punk leaving the business abruptly seemingly with the intentions of never having anything to do with pro wrestling again that he took it so personally that seeing Punk do anything remotely related to Punk’s now “former life” would set him off.

Would it shock anyone if Batista and a bunch of Legacy Wing members are the only other inductees?

BTW, what’s the best site for past AEW result, including Dynamites, and Ramages, aggregations? Looks like the official website stopped keeping them up past 6 months.

The only way I could see it, is if Roman convinced him that him going through Bloodlines and toppling Reigns would be worth the headaches of going back to McMahon World!

I’m seeing some WWE stans treat this like Flair in 1991, Hogan in 1993 or the idea of Bret in 1997! SMH. Mox jumping back suddenly, Omega, Sammy or MJF showing up. Those would be on that level.

Especially knowing the double rib shot on Dusty (Virgil and Akeem “The African Dream”) before the whole wearing polka dots when he came in.

That’s fair if his ego realizes he’s pretty much done calling shots for the promotion as a whole.

Gotta work Stardust in it somehow.

In all seriousness, and I kinda think this is a mega work and the Rhodes are staying with AEW, I can easily see a feud of “Reality TV Stars” with Miz/Maryse getting done even if it’s started on the Go Home show.

I’d imagine after literally being the Triple H of AEW, granted he was doing the whole CodyVerse that for months was separate from the rest of AEW, I doubt he’d settle for the “run of the mill” creative control of just his own programs just because “he’s going home”

Yup. That’s why I’m still thinking this is a mega “master” work. Like I said, you don’t systematically let Triple H’s most recent pets (Cole and Undisputed Era) walk, rebrand the whole brand itself and cut Triple H’s underlings, only to give creative keys to someone who left a few years ago to co-create his own promotion!

Austin did wind up stunning Xavier Woods, whom the next night acknowledged that he did have that stunner coming!

I saw speculation in a Facebook group suggest a Danielson/Mox led group becoming an nWo like faction, with Cody returning to fend them off.

Unless he’s ready to just be a full time character again, with no more ambitions for the creative side of the biz beyond something like what he did on JBL & Cole’s YouTube show and the Rhodes to The Top be more akin to a Miz/Bella/Cena/etc side project, I don’t see him coming back to a WWE that just turfed Triple H and dismantled his entire NXT “empire.” It probably will be a long while before a current or “part time” performer gains enough backstage creative power like that again if Vince is still calling the shots.

So many Jacksonville Jaguar jokes I could use this for…

I get he probably thought getting into the promotion that was paying him to perform’s Hall was implying to retire for good, and no matter what the ROG reboot turns out to be, he pretty much would only be a returning icon making cameos, but this is an interesting thing for him to accept.

Wonder how much of that was through the lenses of legit hate of all things Levesque, and the idea that backing Shane, The Prodigal Son if you will, was hoping for an IRL version of Shane’s return promo, where he promised to wrest control of the company’s future from Vince’s “idiot daughter and doofus son-in-law,” as CM Punk once put it (and speaking of a legit Trips hater there).

Place To Be Nation’s sister feed, North South Connection, has an ongoing podcast project ranking every entrant into a Rumble, in order and each of their subsequent appearances. So far they are in the flotsam and jetsam of the post-Flair 1992 newbies. They haven’t gotten to anyone that was in the Blood Money Rumble yet (mildly surprised now that I think of it that neither Taker nor Shawn did a quickie cameo in it), but I am curious if they will cover it, or are they just doing ones done on the event that bares it’s name. That being said, it is branded “Royal Rumble” by the WWE, with the proper graphics, that are still in use, AFAIK there have only been what, 2-3 “unofficial” uses of the Royal Rumble format; The Corporation/DX Rumble prior to the 1999 one and I’m pretty sure I read that the concept in an abbreviated form was used on a house show prior to its debut in 1988.

Plus it takes HOF talent to be over 60, take a get knocked off the apron bump while making a promo, and keep holding the mic and continue to cut the promo!

Insta-angle, come up with the guy who was going to come in 30. IDK, Bron, Gunther, etc. Boom, that’s a match at Blood Money this coming month!
