I'm not getting my hopes up because its likely just bluster (at least from the GOP), but :laffo:

https://www.cnn.com/2018/10/15/politics/saudi-arabia-congress-trump-khashoggi/index.html

Basically both the GOP and Democrats are calling on Trump to punish Saudi Arabia, or they'll do it themselves (with sanctions). If they pass, then Crown Jewel will likely be toast.

Lowe's sex tape was like THE sex tape as far as I remember until Tommy Lee cornered the market. That whole pre-internet time period is just so weird to look back to and how like tape trading and seedy friends of friends things worked compared to how easily you can find anything today and there's entire business and brands devoted to distributing stolen pornography.

Also Lowe was having sex with a teenager so it ruined his career for awhile until everyone forgot.

it is very funny to see people asking for Traci Lords videos in old versions of the Wrestling Observer

Steph's smile and the way her nose crinkles is cute and kinky in a Preying Mantis kind of way. She's beautiful but there's an underlying menace and horror to her that's fascinating. The most dangerous beauty of them all. Should pair that nick name alongside her husband The Cerebral rear end Kicker Game of King of AssassassinKings Triple HHH.

When I was 17, my father was so stupid, I didn't want to be seen with him in public. When I was 24, I was amazed at how much the old man had learned in just 7 years.

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!

I really enjoyed Royal Rumble last time it was in Phoenix, and the fact that it's not going to be in Dog Smell Arena this time is even more of a plus. I am only slightly paying attention right now due to the Saudi thing (there's just too much going on in sports and WWE mails it in between Summerslam and Survivor series so it's always a good time for a break) so I'm in the same boat about being lapsed and probably still will end up going.

So yeah same I'll probably end up going..

Speaking on the condition of anonymity, multiple members of the WWE talent roster have expressed discomfort with the idea of performing in Saudi Arabia, especially given the nation’s poor record with human rights.

I would not want to be part of that roster right now. There is no doubt the mole hunts have already begun.

Sami didn't have to worry about performing in Saudi when healthy because he was banned from the country. Why would he have to worry about it now that he's injured and out of action entirely until post-Mania time?

Here's hoping. WWE might get away with it if they don't send Jojo out to announce the following match is a qualifier for the World Cup Tournament to decide who is the best in the world to the crowd. Just have the TV people talk about it and send the people out for An Match.
