Vince wants Sheamus to win the ladder match, but then again they might not use him on the show. Bases well covered.

I enjoyed the little section where the Meccafolk complained about Rovert. It was like home away from home except they whined about tweets instead of scoopz.

Also, holy poo poo on this post:


So, USA, which is "the same kind of Network," as DA, did not complain that WWE did shows in the UK, QED DA did not complain to TNA and Meltzer made the whole thing up. It's like the guy was writing an entry for a Most Fallacious Argument contest.

Out of interest, what are your guys thought's on the r/squaredcirle community?


Reddit is inherently a terrible format for fast-moving discussion as anything new gets lost in the huge void. Squared Circle is too broad, so they have a weird spoiler format - even if it's been on TV, it's still a spoiler and thread titles can be as descriptive as you like, as long as there's no explicit spoilers. "What's the biggest win for a debuting wrestler [spoilers]" the day after Owens hammers Cena is literally fine.

The community seems to be full of teenagers, with the lack of perspective and piles of self-confidence that come with it. It's a decent enough place to pick up on the headlines, but the discussion is piss weak. It's not worth disagreeing, as downvoting is always an easier option than forming an argument.

It's incredibly drama-led too, with page after page of tedious procedure and process chat. Fun.

From the wonderful world of wrestlingforum.com

I posted on that forum like 15 years ago. I refuse to believe it's been going in the same form for that long. I can't believe I haven't moved on from talking about wrestling on the Internet.

It blows my mind that the netcop is still alive and still churning out the same content he was in 1998 (but with sarcastic commentary inserted because it's easier than editing).

The King Lear rant is a true classic, and even now Scooter describes it as his "most popular and famous essay".

There's also Lazarus, his inexplicable follow up: https://411mania.com/wrestling/lazarus-the-rise-of-the-wwf/
