C.S.

I'm reading through the Josie Riesman book. Shorter chapters should have been the first change the editor pushed for. I don't mean editing out most of the content. Keep everything. Just split it up into smaller, more digestible chunks. The chapters are waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too long, and they really have no reason to be. Other than that, it's informative so far. Dark and depressing - as you would expect - but informative.

Karrion Kross is the shits.

I hope Bianca and Rhea don't trade belts.

"The American Nightmare" "The Consolation Prize" Cody Rhodes drafted to RAW. I bet he can't wait to win the title Dusty never won - because it didn't fucking exist in 1977.

Holy shit! Bloodline was drafted without the Usos.

PWInsider is reporting that the surprise will be:

Which is the most gutless beta male but so typically pro wrestling response. "I worked you, bro" isn't as clever as they think it is.

Chavo has always been saltier than a bag of dollar shop chips. Remember his rant about John Cena's workrate a few years ago?

What an overbooked, underwhelming mess. Roman has two World Titles, so the solution - of course - is to add a third World Title.

CM Punk was supposedly backstage at Raw. I'll take that with a giant heaping of salt, because as the "rasslin' media" has proven lately, they don't know squat.

Charly Arnolt (Charly Caruso in WWE) just outed herself as a transphobe and left ESPN for some Fox offshoot sports group. https://itrwrestling.com/news/former-wwe-talent-faces-social-media-backlash-over-new-career-choice/

Which are? Don't say something like this if you're going to speak in code. Your name isn't Dave Meltzer.

Incredible posts like this are why it's tragic that the "like" button was removed from this forum and never worked in the first place. My reply adds zero to the conversation - several "likes" would have punctuated the point much more effectively - but I wanted to give you props for this laugh-out-loud gem of a response!

The shooter book? Massively hyped on PWO, but I couldn't even finish it. To be fair, I'm not hugely interested in shooters. Now I'm wondering if much of that hype was posted by the author himself under his aliases? I'm reading the Josie Riesman book now. It almost feels weird reading a wrestling book by someone who's an actual writer.

I like QT. QT >>>>>>> PAC, Tony Nese, Colt Cabana, etc.

It's a phrase Americans think the French say.

I am not exactly a major PAC fan, but I would never, ever suggest that he shouldn't be on the show at all. Of course he should be! Just not in the main event. So, we agree there, @The Thread Killer.

You've all lost your damn minds. Don't want Punk back but do want Tony Nese? Ospreay vs. PAC main eventing Wembley when neither of them (especially PAC) are quarter the star Davey Boy Smith was? Okay, I'll at least entertain an argument about Ospreay being 1/2 of that main event - he did well in Japan and has the six-star ratings AEW fans blindly worship - but PAC? Come on...

Deleted tweet. Probably a work at this point, but if not, who is this nobody to say anything about anyone?

I'm completely over Jericho and his attention-seeking "look at me!" bullshit. 1. Punk is a far bigger star than Jericho is or ever will be. 2. We saw Jericho vs. Punk already. At WrestleMania. Ten years ago. No one wants to see it again now when they're older and slower.

This thread sold me on the Josie Riesman book. I just used a bunch of credits to get it on Kindle.

People here keep crediting WWE. WWE had nothing do with the photoshopped pic. It was tweeted out by Logan Paul.

I'll admit his off-the-wall posts were a guilty pleasure of mine. I don't remember him wading into political waters though - someone correct me if I'm wrong - so at least he kept it pro wrestling only.

Not exactly. Logan Paul re-used an old pic to announce his re-signing but photoshopped her out of it and changed the color of his jacket and drink.
