Former Ring of Honor champion Adam Cole has signed with WWE for the NXT brand, PWInsider.com has confirmed.

Real curious to see how he does. Not really a huge fan of his ring work but he'll get over and hopefully this means Britt Baker gets a deal

I just hope that Flair is playing possum, and lowblows the cardiologist who goes to operate on him.

Yes because if there is one thing that modern WWE is known for its for being supportive of wrestler relationships

So I mentioned I haven't followed wrestling for years and I'm mainly back for the women's division.

But I'm wondering something, are Raw audiences just generally dead nowadays or are they just silent for the women's matches I've seen? I know I shouldn't care but it's kinda depressing. When the babyface is struggling to make the tag, the crowd should be supporting them.

WWE is poo poo at writing babyfaces and the product as a whole has been a mess for the past few years.

Raw also has the problem of being 3 hours long, plus overrun, which is WAYYY too much for a weekly show (and even most PPVs don't go to 3+). Last Raw I watched, they were in Pittsburgh, crowd started reasonably hot but they were just dead by hour 3.

Wwe will give us a Ric Flair feel good moment in the form of Charlotte beating the piss out of Bayley and making her cry while in the figure four, then Miz will come out and put her in it again while the audience erupts in woos and she cries some more. A shot of the audience will reveal Arn Anderson giving a tearful standing ovation.

my husband Bill Goldberg would talk about the Rowdy Ringsports and all of his friends here all the time, he loved all of you, and I know you all loved him very much. you were the only friends he ever had, even i did not care for him very much. i only loved him for his money, and for the amazing sex. please be kind to my daughter as she begins her posting adventure here with all of you. thank you for loving Pupkin (my husband's real name).

I fully admit that sometimes I make jokes about Ric being out of control and refusing to give up his lifestyle and whatnot, and then I remember, "Oh, poo poo. Reid," and then I think, well, holy poo poo, how else does a raging addict know how to cope ... and then I think to myself, "God drat, someone surely said something, somewhere."
