DIRECTIVE 236: Promote pro-social values
Heard Billy Corgan's coffee/tea shop is closing down and the advances on the Smashing Pumpkins "reunion" tour are so laughably pathetic the whole thing is about to be cancelled. Thank god he has Tim Storm in his pocket to sell tickets and get himself out of debt.

It's interesting he says he hasn't voted since he was all about Obama and Biden in 08. He'd dedicate Landslide to Obama and lovingly referenced Biden a few times.

I might slap a couple of hamiltons down for it.
Mainly so I can declare myself NWA World Heavyweight Champion for life and carry the 8 pounds of gold with me everywhere until I die.

Or just bury it in the middle of the woods just so I can yell to the internet "It's DONE. It's OVER. NO MORE NWA EVER! We are free from the grip of this corpse that refuses to accept its own death"

And then start a crowdfounding project to buy TNA for the exact same reason.

tbh it'd be cool if AJPW bought it, seeing as two of its three top titles are NWA titles, so that'd give the Triple Crown a bit more legitimacy or some poo poo like that, idk

plus it means we'd most likely get NWA World Heavyweight Champion Joe Doering so that's a bonus

Yeah if Billy wants to imitate the old school territory promotions he should have his champ be a legit scary motherfucker who people won't mess with. Do the job for him and don't gently caress around or he may kill you

That post reminds me of something I saw in 'Wrestlers on Social Media" thread.
Some dude was making a post poo poo talking Brock Lesnar and I'm like 'Who the gently caress is crazy enough to poo poo talk Brock Lesnar'
It is Cain Velasquez.
It stunned me to realize that there are people in the world capable of beating the poo poo out of Brock Lesnar.

Was this at House of Hardore? If so, I heard from a friend who at least likes pretty much everything that the show last night was loving awful, in no small part due to Dreamer.

I'm incredibly amused by the t-shirt Tommy's wearing in the second video's thumbnail. Ripping off Bullet Club shirts is what everyone does, so it's not that but the word "soldier" because Bone Soldier sure is someone you want to emulate.

It's not even a good ripoff. Lowest possible effort involved in making that thing.

The whole show is up on HOH's Twitch account. Just watched this match and it wasn't terrible, just boring and very much by the numbers. Also, why is Austin Idol around? Is he a name literally anybody cares about? They couldn't find any other old wrestler to pair with Aldis?

On the plus side, HOH seems to have some of the better production/camera work of most indies so that's nice.

I think they use the old ECW video crew like 3PW and Hardcore Homecoming did before them

Tommy started looking really old like 3 years ago when he faced Bobby Roode for the TNA title at a House of Hardcore show

Nah, Idol is like 70. He had a feud with Lawler back in... i think the AWA days

E: Aires was "Austin Starr" in 2006 in TNA. I don't recall him having a gay gimmick though.

Aron Rex had a gay gimmick in TNA and he used to go by Idol Stevens, maybe that's what you're thinking of.
