drat, Storm always struck me as a rational and intelligent guy by the admittedly abysmal standards of the business, that sucks to read that.

Miles O'Brian posted:I didn't like the tapped out chants simply because it means that tapping out will remain something that top faces will never, ever do. Exactly. There's even going to be less of a chance of Cena or Sheamus ever tapping out now because they're not going to want to risk their top faces receiving that chant.

I really should start tracking down NXT, from the reviews I've read it features more guys I'd want to see than Raw, and it's not going to suffer from being overly long.

bobkatt013 posted:Spending money of a man who is pretty liberal in some things Here's Vince's from the same site. http://www.newsmeat.com/celebrity_political_donations/Vince_McMahon.php All his donations unsurprisingly went to GOP pols and PACs, but it's kind of funny to see that he tossed some money at Chris Shays both in '06 and '08. Also of note to me as a PA resident was his donation to Santorum in '06 when he lost his bid for a third term. I know Vince's politics certainly don't align with mine, but I'm still kind of surprised he donated to such a PTC style religious right politician in another state.

achillesforever6 posted:Is he working us? Because Cena seems to have magical regenerative abilities so I don't know if he can be hurt for long. Observer seems to be leaning that way. http://www.f4wonline.com/more/more-top-stories/118-daily-updates/27560-cena-update quote:John Cena in a series of twitter messages has said that he spoke to Dr. James Andrews, who operated on his elbow yesterday, and it will be six weeks before he can wrestle again. He was ripping on the WWE web site for saying he would be out for two to three weeks. Again, his stuff is often storyline so who is to say, particularly with him going so hard against his own company's site as opposed to just a correction. From a time line standpoint, a true six weeks would be a few days after the Hell in a Cell PPV he's scheduled to headline against C.M. Punk.

flashy_mcflash posted:There were also people in there that seemed to be put in without their knowledge or consent. It strains credibility that Arda Ocal would've signed up for that unless it was some kind of joke. I know there was another female wrestler in there other than Lufisto (Courtney Rush?) who was quite pissed that her real name was publicly released without her approval or knowledge.

MassRanTer posted:Uh, is this part of his gimmick now or what? Huh? In all seriousness this is definitely part of his gimmick and fits in with the vaguely Raven-esque promos he's been giving since he lost to Hallowicked. One could certainly argue this puts him firmly in the "Heel with legitimate grievances" camp though.

ShaneMacGowansTeeth posted:The fact it's got so high, and I think it will crack the top 30, is a drat near miracle. The WWE's viewership over here isn't all that high - the average viewing figures for both Raw and Smackdown over here is 125,000. That Fandago's theme has sold enough (as of midnight Thursday into Friday) to even get into the chart is, as I said, a damned miracle Obviously the time slot is horrible for you guys, but I'm still surprised the ratings are so low. As an American judging solely by the Internet it almost seems like wrestling's more popular over there than it is here judging by the high percentages of British fans you see here and elsewhere online.

A month or so ago when Generico was unmasked, a friend of his that posts here was saying that his heritage was more interesting than just being French-Canadian and that he spoke a third language which no one would probably be able to guess.

Grab Meatcastle posted:All the accounts they're tweeting there look like those weird rear end role play accounts people have where they pretend their whole circle of friends are celebrities. I see a fake Ryder, a fake Wade, possibly a couple of fake divas too. Yeah, I remember finding a Kevin Steen RP account a few months ago which led to a bunch of others. Weird as gently caress. I think Generico's the only guy who actively uses dual twitter accounts under both his indie and WWE names because of the difference in personas.

triplexpac posted:Eh I dunno, back in the day I used to do e-fed stuff. It was kinda fun, writing your own wrestling matches and angles and whatnot. Yeah, I did some e-fed poo poo years ago as well. Big difference IMO between that and RPing as actual wrestlers pretending to be in relationships with each other and other weird poo poo. I kinda laugh at the giant sprawling Colony e-fed on the Chikara message board, but there's nothing really wrong with that kinda stuff.

It's a loving shame to read that especially since he's the top guy in the company, but let's be honest, as others have has been said already no one should be shocked that a stars and bars clad backwoods chicken farmer who often makes religious references on twitter is a homophobe.Perigryn posted:Does Mark ever say this sort of thing? Msrk's fortunately not on twitter oatgan posted:This isn't the first time he's tweeted something like that. Its probably not even the 3rd or 4th time he's tweeted something like that IIRC what he said in '11 was actually even worse but people were hoping he was just heeling it up.
