Y'know, in the event they have to move the Crown Jewel event to another country featuring a dictatorship, there's a huuuuuuuuuuuuge stadium in a country featuring a regime that's trying to kiss up to the US and our Dept. of State right now. And they've already hosted a wrestling event there in the past, which set an all-time attendance record for indoor sporting events when it happened. Just sayin'. Participation would be mandatory at this place, too. And if someone whispered in their leader's ear the right way, i'm sure those in attendance could be encouraged to pop huge for Roman when he walks out. Hell , get Flair and Inoki and have them fight again. TWICE IN A LIFETIME! And another thing: Women could perform at this event, and they wouldn't even have to be covered up.

Vince has heard your concerns and is moving the ppv, it has been rechristened the Dear Leader Combat Period and will build important bridges with the North Korean people

32 people on this poster and I can only recognize 8. The only ones I've ever seen in a match are the Bellas. I'm... out of touch.

Despite current events me and one of my best friends went through today with buying tickets to Takeover and the Rumble in Phoenix. I was hesitant, but going to a WWE Pay Per View live, let alone one of the big four, is basically the only thing I've never gotten to do as a wrestling fan, and given that my interest in WWE has withered to almost nothing I figured I would let myself have this swan song. Here's hoping the rumors about The Rock competing in the match are true!

So does Shawn Michaels still come out of retirement for not a gently caress ton of money? I honestly wondering if canceling this deal with Saudi Arabia is going to be used as an excuse to make roster cuts or some other lovely decision to make the quarter financial results higher to meet investor expectations or whatever

"After KSA threatened Trump, the President called us and said "No go, Vince" and we're Americans through and through and so to keep our employees safe, we had to move. BUT WE WILL BE BACK FOR HABIBI-MANIA after this blows over. It'll replace Wrestlemania this year." I wonder if KSA is getting more balls and being more threatening because they're striking deals with Russia, who have their back. Plus the Russian stooge in the President's office lets them run amok.

If Trump isn't going to stop a billion dollar weapons deal with the Saudis there's no chance in hell Vince is going to cancel Crown Jewel. I just wonder if we are going to get a Jamal lookalike for the Saudi wrestlers to squash like that surreal Iraqi segment at the Greatest Royal Rumble. edit: holy moly lol https://twitter.com/JindersNips/status/1051481283384266752 The Cosby Mysteries fucked around with this message at 18:36 on Oct 14, 2018 |

If they don't promote it the Saudis are probably going to see it as a slight against them anyway so they're in a no win situation and should just cancel it and take the hit
