Weren't Rampage and Tito also prohibited by Bellator from doing anything physical in TNA?

Tito definitely was. I don't know about Rampage.

Yeah everyone knew Tito, even at that point. The problem was (stop me if you've heard this before) the angle made basically no sense and nothing was followed up on

Except I didn't? Looked like a working armbar to me when I watched the video. Never saw the elbow hyperextend.

you don't have to fully hyperextend the elbow to clearly want to be doing some damage. Star turned her thumb up and everyone out there even outside of the promotion said it was done with malicious intent.

Yeah Corgan's basically back to square one as I understand it. He's got all (or most) of his money and no trademarks.

Yet, despite the entire ordeal, wrestling is all about commodities, and Anthem has a worthwhile commodity if it decides to sell GFW/Impact primarily due to its tape library.

WWE tops the list of potential suitors, as the tape library is extremely valuable.

lmao no it loving isn't

Gaz-L posted:

Yeah, it's got tons of Angle, Hardys, Styles and Joe footage, plus a bunch of other people that they either have under contract, or want to have.

Hell, the tape library and settling the Hardys legal issue might be worth the stick of gum and 4 bits that Anthem want for it to Vince.

anyone WWE wants to have they already have. The entire rest of the TNA roster is either their own castoffs or relative nobodies.

Anthem bought Impact Wrestling and merged it with Jarrett's dead promotion Global Force Wrestling but never bought the trademarks, which means Jarrett still owns them
Anthem made new belts promoting GFW with the logos included and rebranded all of Impact Wrestling to be GFW, still never owning the trademarks
Anthem plugged Jarrett's dead promotion, which they didn't own the trademarks of, by having their own talent go with Jarrett to Triplemania, where Jarrett made an rear end of himself
Anthem fired Jarrett and are now at least considering being done with the whole company entirely because there's just too many headaches

that is an impressively succinct summary of things :cheers:

I find Cornette being such good friends with Jeff Jarrett to be really loving weird. Corny is a fairly liberal dude, while JJ has been unabashedly conservative and pro-Trump (MIGA) for a few years at least. And then there's Jarrett's Russo fetish...

It's not that hard to have friendships with people you may disagree with politically.

As was said before though, Cornette seems to want to help JJ out mostly because of the family connection. Cornette goes quite a ways back with Jarrett's dad.
