I don't quite get this. Aside from management, do a lot of wrestlers live in NY, NJ, or Connecticut? They can't just fly them home?

During the Fightful recap of SD and the day's events a few minutes ago, Sean Ross Sapp expanded more regarding the tweets about Velveteen Dream today TL;DR recap of the audio is it's probably the most underlooked fuckup WWE's had all year continuing to employ him just to this point, he won't last much longer, and it's probably to the benefit of both that the inevitable firing happen ASAP before poo poo gets worse Beyond all the accusations that have been made public, the infamous audio from the first one, etc there's a lot of stuff going around that will come out eventually that's also bad This has been building for a long time. Last year there was a warrant for his arrest because he went bonkers and assaulted a stranger's car. WWE would look the other way because they thought if he ever got his poo poo together offscreen they'd have someone impressive onscreen to partially build around years from now; the exact opposite's happened and his behavior's actively gotten worse, in a way that feels like he's been enabled by sticking around despite it

They're just jettisoning a liability to get scooped up by another company. No care for his victims or him.

They're doing a "we have no ideas, the champ's someone we don't want, and it's summer so nobody's watching anyway" stretch of non-activity; first Braun had a title match with Bray as the Mr Rogers knockoff, now Braun's doing a non-title match with Bray as the prophet he used to be, finally it'll end with Braun doing a title match with Bray as the Fiend where they give Fiend the belt back a year after he first won it like that'll solve all the issues people had

Next Wednesday is the 18th anniversary of the Taker-Jeff ladder match where Hardy almost made himself famous.

We talk a lot about unions but the biggest reason a union would never work in wrestling is simply because you will never, ever, get a company full of wrestlers to mutually commit to not wrestling for any significant period of time. Sometimes I think the only people who care less about the lives of WWE wrestlers than WWE is the wrestlers themselves.

Bray was still switching between Funhouse Bray and Fiend Bray before Matt was even released, counting Swamp Bray showing up at Wrestlemania with the Cena thing

Matt and Bray also teamed up, so it wouldn't be surprising if they both spitballed the idea between themselves on different personas.
