Anyways what I am interested in tonight besides the obvious is whether Cameron Grimes and LA Knight step into Kyle and Gargano's shoes. Grimes with the new look and Knight seemingly a babyface. And if the newly bald Luke Hudson rocks the Bubby Roberts/Kurt Angle wig. Meiko Satomura last week tweeted last week she's in America. So who knows? WWE filed to trademark Jinny's name last week. Another possible sign that she and her partner WALTER might be moving to the US. WALTER vs Bron Breakker would be a great feud in 2022.

Everyone that knows them is very excited about Candice and Johnny having a baby boy in February as they will make great parents. Whether it be how much they trained and mentored other wrestlers. To Candice working for Disney for many years as a commercial baker so she has always made these insane birthday cakes for her nieces and nephews. Candice is 36 years old so having one may have not happened for her. Johnny is very close to his father who has had major heart issues over the years so giving him a grandson is a big deal for him too. Scott Taylor leaving opens a coaching role slot open at the very least too. WWE coaches are "office" so they get benefits - namely medical coverage.

AEW loves Atlanta and Atlanta loves AEW. Expecting strong things and I trust you will have a fun time:

I think this is a fair idea. Also, Britt has a back story with Nia. She busted Britt's nose in the opening spot of Nia's RAW debut!

Cole's shirt sales and pop are among the best in the company if not the best. Ask your fans/trust follows.

A fantastic match from last weekend for free. Just watch:

RAW is often a chore and WWE's presentation is so off-putting even for a forum "hardcore" as this which can easily watch blurriest fancams. But the likes of Drew, Sheamus and Riddle really put in a shift on a week to week basis. It is really depressing how pointless their personal efforts are in the ring are. Kenny and Tam Nakano are my picks if you are talking about wrestlers that wrestled consistently. I don't think there should be too much hand wringing about Danielson. Yes, he had time off but he still was the dude that saved the main event fricken Wrestlemania in terms of interest/chemistry. And has been so otherworldly captivating in his AEW run.

Social media invented the storyline that Sonya picks on Naomi and Aliyah as she's racist. So he's probably that too in storyline.
-
She reported to NXT initially and not the main roster as the main roster management didn't like her look or her age (38). I assume Taya, John and their internal advocates continued to try to press on WWE on that. And I guess there was a window of opportunity where Taya was going to be put on screen with John or that carrot was again dangled.

This story about Black went viral.

Gargano's NXT contract expires on December 3rd. Last month Gargano's camp put out a rumour that Tony Khan isn't a fan of him (doesn't make sense IMO). I assume that rumour was spread to protect the outcome of the Gargano/Ciampa match.
-
Moxley sounded stressed and overwhelmed during the media he was doing for his book which he was doing amid moving cross Country and having a newborn. And like with his infamous interview with Steve Austin he doesn't seem to enjoy talking about himself or his past. Coping with Danny Havoc and Brodie Lee's passing alone is enough to have a real detrimental effect on anyone. Brodie's anniversary is December 26th and thinking about Christmas, his widow and kids will really compound things. I wish Jon and Renee the best as obviously getting treatment is the sensible thing ahead of the issue getting much worse.

The tape library is worth more if ROH is an existing entity which is what the Wrestlemania weekend show is really all about so I've been told. AKA "the play".
-
Toa Liona received two gifts from that show. A white-hot crowd to wrestle in front of and how giving FTR were. Toa got the callback after the match and wrestled on Universal tapings on Sunday at least. Having twins will certainly give you a kick up the ass.
-
Yuta is actually a very good shout. I'd save the first Garcia vs Danielson match to be something meaningful. Danielson deciding to wrestle to his fellow Pacific Northwesterner Luther for shits and giggles would be entertaining and a change of pace if we are talking about embracing the WCW Worldwide vibe.
-
On a dork note. Danielson is working on a taping of Dark in Universal Studios this weekend. Obviously, the Suzuki match happened last week. But still, it is wild he never did an NXT (or NXT UK) cameo/one-off. Who he works and how he approaches the match will be so interesting. HE MAIN EVENTED WRESTLEMANIA THIS YEAR too.
-
It will probably play out that he's waiting for his US Visa to make a full move to the US and the main roster. Yes, I know.
-
Vince will be 78 and a half when MJF's contract is up. And possibly deceased by that point. All for independent contractors playing the leverage game though. Dumb not to. But the real game MJF is playing aimed at the obvious and earned TV rights increase AEW will garner in late 2023 when their deal with TNT is up for renewal.

WWE TV 10/18 - 10/24 Did you know Rod Stewart plagiarized a Brazilian artist?
rovert replied to KawadaSmile's topic in WWE
It stems from a negative/crossways fan interaction with one fan. And that fan brings his friends to boo MSK. -
On the money post, C.S. . I've known people involved. New Japan has always offered a meagre local advertising budget. US/Japanese international business and cultural differences is a minefield, syncing office hours limits things but even accounting for that New Japan's decision making is just so fucking slow.

He has criminal charges stemming from his youth. Has used the moniker of the "black sheep" in the past. Very recently shifted to saying he eats from the other end of the table.

Shane is 36 years old and has been with WWE 5 1/2 years now. He needed to hustle so to avoid the likely/rumoured November cuts - WWE's Q3 earnings report and the want to slash costs. Shane is Australian so no WWE likely leaves him without a Visa sponsor. I'd be terrified in his position and he did the right thing for some whose back is against the wall.

A "TV finish" on TV. I am sure the match will be great and the crowd will have the time of their lives regardless.
