Saito has such an awesome build and look to him. You’d never mistake him for another guy and he did a lot of fun power moves. Also that match is so peak 1980s AJPW. In that it’s an awesome match and also ends in a count out and/or DQ.

Well, looks like we have more tragic news https://twitter.com/Maffewgregg/status/1018941577685864452 I know it's maffew, and he likes to exaggerate some botches by saying "x died after botch" So please, by all means, tell me it's not true, I'll be a happier person for it.

So FITE TV is putting together a pretty insane package together for Starcast (the event occurring around all in). While this doesn’t confirm All In being carried by FITE it makes me think it will be. Hell you get a piece of the ring with this package. It’s also going to cost $149. https://www.fite.tv/watch/starrcast-full-pack/2o6me/ quote:NOW Only: Platinum Weekend Pass provides access to over 40 hours of content of the full 4-day live programming and, while supplies last, a piece of the actual ring canvas from ALL IN!

I cannot believe that people are going to spend $149 to watch Marty Scurll do karaoke and listen to Jeff Jarrett talk about TNA.

Agreed, that's worth $200 at least. What a bargain

I think Conrad mentioned that a far cheaper package without the ring would be coming up. Back when I had like $200 plus of credit for Fite I could...nah I don’t think I’d even do it then. Maybe the cheaper one. I have to admit some of them do sound cool, just not that much money cool. But hey I can’t hate on them trying to make money off of it. I do want to know when All In itself will be up for order. I’ve kept $65 squirreled away so I can get that. I can’t imagine the price being more then $40.

No, I definitely respect The Elite guys for making that money because I have no doubt people will pay. $40 would still be a bit too much for me if the matches yet to be announced are on the level of the ones already announced.

I agree, I’m just flexible since all the money I’ve ever spent on FITE with the exception of $10 came from affiliate credits. I’ve probably had close to $400-$500 all told. I only mention $40 since that’s what IMPACT charges, not that I ever buy it mind you. Marshal Prolapse fucked around with this message at 18:57 on Jul 17, 2018 |

Dave mentioned on WOR that the Sinclair/Tribune merger may be in trouble so it looks like ROH might not be getting more TV.

It’s apparently going to an admin hearing which is pretty much a deal killer if they don’t reach a newer agreement before hand. Apparently Sinclair found a way to annoy everyone at the FCC and try and pull some stuff where they could essentially still control stuff they were supposed to divest.

Was it ever revealed what she tested for? The Japanese term is very broad and could mean anywhere between Ritalin and Meth

I've heard her urine tested positive or that she had a substance on her person that tested positive. Could be both. Unlike US media, they tend to be very vague to protect the suspect's privacy.

I don't think Droz ever blamed him in the first place, but I wouldn't be surprised if some terrible people get in line to say poo poo.

sportsgenius86 posted:If Droz forgives him and is okay with this why would anyone else give a poo poo? Its just kind of hosed up that the only thing they have in common for a dual signing is that one paralyzed the other. Like, that is the sum totality of why you would put D'Lo and Droz together in the same sentence and it is kind of messed up that they booked a signing based on that..

its not like D'Lo woke up that morning and decided he was gonna paralyze the dude famous for puking on command, jeez. If anything, it'd make for a funny or illuminating podcast interview.

A lovely thing happened by absolute freak accident twenty years ago. The people involved don't hate each other and are willing to appear in public together. How the gently caress does that make you uncomfortable?

Sure it would, I cannot imagine anyone having a problem with an interview talking about the incident Its just weird to book two guys to appear together for a signing when the only reason their names come up together is because one crippled the other. Like the implicit reason to put them together for this event, without openly acknowledging it, was the accident.
