C.S.

I really hope Undertaker is done, for his own sake and peace of mind - the documentary certainly tried to paint that picture through editing - but Taker never at any point confirmed it. At best, he said "I think I'm done" or words to that effect. But he also said "never say never" and admitted he would consider it if Vince ever needed him again (likely for a Saudi show IMO, although that part was left unsaid). With that said, these shirts wouldn't have ever been a possibility even a year ago:

Is that an official NWA account or just a fan page? Either way, Corgan and the NWA should immediately vilify that post. (They won't, which is half the problem in wrestling right there, but they should.) The NWA letting people "resign" (Cornette, Lagana) instead of firing them outright is some real candy ass cowardly bullshit. Edit: Not sure if the NWALegends account was like this before - I don't follow it - but the profile is locked down now.

Now it's Austin Aries' turn. Honestly not surprised. After all, the little geek did it to Christy Hemme on camera. TNA being TNA looked the other way.

Joey Ryan continues to expose himself as an incredibly sleazy, monumentally stupid scumbug.

DWB and Wright would've been the babyfaces in any other territory.

"I've been in counseling working on myself" seems to be the new cliche among these "apologies."

The sad thing about Bram is that I'm guessing it's an open secret with him. There has to be a reason he keeps falling downward, right? From WWE developmental, to TNA, to the NWA. Of course, being completely generic and unmemorable probably doesn't help either.

I hope I don't come across as anti-AEW, because I'm not - I'm rooting for them to succeed - I just think a lot of their so-called "progressive" bona fides ended up being a bunch of carny BS, which is fair enough and to be expected, but still disappointing, ya know? My larger point was that the wrestling industry in general is tainted, not just WWE, so Randazzo's lazy "woke" sermonizing doesn't impress me one bit.

I don't think this is a good point though. I think it's an extraordinarily lazy one by an author so transparently trying to score "woke" points that I find it impossible to take him seriously. If Bryan, New Day, etc. don't work for WWE, where would they work? AEW, where Shad Khan pumped millions into the Trump campaign and they openly wish an accused rapist "all the best." ROH, owned by the insidious and odious Republican propaganda machine Sinclair Broadcasting. Impact, where people at the top of the food chain are alleged to be part of the problem, never mind some of the top wrestlers. New Japan, which is probably still tied to the Yakuza and God knows what else that we don't know about because they operate in another country. Etc., etc., etc. It's really easy for someone to say "don't work for WWE" or "don't work in the wrestling industry," but that's their dream and in many cases their only real talent. The better and less lazy approach is for the good guys to stay in wrestling and help clean it up from the inside, which is hopefully what this movement will do. I'm skeptical - as we all should be - that any real change will ever happen, but this is at least a promising start.

I went on Twitter to unfollow Velveteen Dream and saw that he erased all of his tweets and now has blank white images for his pics.

Nah, it came out nine hours ago and AEW's tweet was two hours ago. Sending him to rehab is not the issue - that's probably a smart, sound decision - but wishing an accused rapist "all the best" is seriously tone deaf and exposes what a "young" company AEW still is.

But AEW "wishes Jimmy Havoc all the best." As bad as WWE is with its selective releases, that's real amateur hour on AEW's part.

It's perfect, Bubba.

Lagana was the "hired help" - a stupid and goofy weirdo at best and something much darker at worst. His departure will be a massive inconvenience for the NWA, no doubt, but it won't be a fed-killer unless Corgan is ready to throw in the towel. Otherwise, Lagana can and will be replaced. Someone must have just adjusted it between your post and mine, because it was already changed by the time I came in to post.

Where did you hear this?

With a lawyer like this, Riddle is in great hands. 1. The lawyer is too stupid to scan a document or draft a press release. Instead, he took a photo of a piece of paper with his phone. 2. On top of that, the lawyer is too stupid to use a clean sheet of paper. BROOOOO!!!

The Network has a GWF section...with a few USWA shows and nothing else. Makes no sense. Could it also be on Dailymotion? I tried looking, but that site's search engine sucks.

Yeah, I agree that it's a disorganized mess, but some of the stories - Riddle, Gallagher, the weirdo dumbfuck Dave Lagana, etc. - sound really bad.

Is there a master list anywhere so I can unfollow all these fuckers en masse?

So, anyone else already feeling nostalgic for the criticisms of Cornette in this thread, which already seem so minor in comparison?

The ExposeWrestling account? Good intentions, but absolutely disorganized and haphazard execution.

Yeah, but his career is dead and he's lost everyone's respect.

Is this the account? Exposed with a D leads to nothing. https://twitter.com/ExposeWrestling BTW, @Loss @goodhelmet, can all of this be split off into its own post? Thanks!

Dave Lagana now... He always struck me as incredibly stupid and weird but I never imagined anything like this.
