Guy can't catch a break, first he doesn't get to go to Wrestle Kingdom and now he learns he's the dude people get to beat up before going to NXT.

Obviously Shayna's shoot skills played a huge part in figuring out pro wrestling, but she was really putting the work in before she got signed. She was a regular in AIW, SHIMMER, and STARDOM for the year and half she worked before the first MYC.

She's still the AIW women's champion even. (due to not really having a women's division any more, but hey)

When was the last time wwe looked at someone getting over and didn’t react by either ignoring or burying them? I’m not counting lesnar or rousey or people like that who can just gently caress off if they wanted

Elias, maybe? They haven't done much with him, but he's been on a slow climb up. Drew hasn't been around again for long enough to say but things seem to be pretty positive for him right now.

the arquette stuff seems to be a story, we've had people at my work who don't watch wrestling talking about it. they're mostly concerned that he's run out of money :(

From what I've heard, he donates most of what he makes from wrestling. I think he just likes it a lot and wanted to give a deathmatch a shot to say he's done it.

Meltzer keeps saying Jessamyn at least is a lot better than most people who've trained for five months so the "oh maybe they'll just never be any good and will always suck" thing feels like unnecessary doomsaying. It's definitely still too early to put them on TV but five months is not a very long time.

Noted mashup artist Triple Q just released a huge (177 track) album of wrestling theme mashups if that's a thing you're into at all. Most of them, as the title suggests, are My Time is Now mashups but I still think a lot of them are fun. I like Bonfires Apart and Finest Hour of the Setting Sun a lot (Bonfire x Worlds Apart and Gangplank Galleon x Shadows of the Setting Sun respectively).

Yeah, you can see elements of Candice in a lot of the AIW guys, even more so than Johnny for most (how they use blood in matches is a big one I notice all the time).

And yeah agreed. 33 isn't that old, but she's been wrestling for 16-17 years now and taking a lot more big hits for years as part of being an intergender match specialist. If it's become clear that they don't have a character or role for her in NXT I don't blame her for slowing down.

Having Nia's attitude about it being "Hey, I gave it a shot" on Raw tonight probably would be the best way to follow that.

Hellblazer187 posted:

So, the "people like us" thing, at the risk of being obvious, that's meant to be a racial thing right? They want us to know they're saying "black people" but don't want to come out and say it?

If so, the two obvious counters are Rocky and Booker. I think there is some nuance that differentiates Rocky from Kofi so the racial element of the angle still works, but it's dangerous waters to try to spell out explicitly.

"People like us" is a direct reference to Triple H's "People like you don't win championships" to Booker before then beating him, yes.

Yeah he did a huge press thing earlier, he's apparently wrestling at Triplemania. Here's a summary thread of the press conference.

Asuka's getting ratioed on this one.

Takeda was great all weekend, I wish he did more of the stuff he did with Gresham because his deathmatches make me feel bad to see, but I can probably overcome that to watch more of him.

Edit: Rachel from Wrestlesplania and Joey Janela had a great time last night, looks like.
