    Hello and a confession

    Seeing this actually hurts a bit. I just decided to pop in for the first time in forever and to see the complete lack of new posts is painful. While this forum was full of assholes who thought they knew better, myself heavily included, there was a sense of comradery and community and it's sad to...

    The Roman/Cena Shoot Segment

    It was both painful and satisfying to watch. Mainly because everything that came out of Cena's mouth was true, and it became so unbelievably clear as the segment went on just how BIG the gap is between a "main eventer" and a "top guy" really is. And look, I understand the sentiment that if...

    Kurt Angle's Big Reveal

    I thought it was going to be Chad Gabble honestly. And that's sort of what throws me for a loop. Out of the American Alpha, Chad's the one with an actual Olympic wrestling background, and he's closer to Kurt's size. But that's just it isn't it? Jason's bigger. Noticeably bigger than Kurt, which...

    Paige: The Biggest Bust In NXT History

    I think being on the road and the added stress can screw with a lot of people, especially people that young. NXT mostly being in one place really helps. There's more free time, so people can get that crap out of the way and still come to work. I still have SOME sympathy. Being young and stupid...

    James Ellsworth Goes on Twitter Rampage

    Like I JUST said, if he had helped in any other way, I wouldn't be bitching. This isn't about desperately wanting indy style match ups. Character work is a great thing. And I gave you actual examples of good heat that wouldn't have annoyed me. Examples that would have been respectful to the...

    James Ellsworth Goes on Twitter Rampage

    When they book garbage like that, it's no wonder you think so. If you don't take a division seriously, it ends up looking like crap. Which is a shame because Charlotte and Becky are easily in the top 10 wrestlers on the roster. I understand that they were going for heat. But there were better...

    Bill Maher

    This is a lot to try and argue against. So I'm just going to summarize a response rather than make an out and out argument, and I ask your forgiveness ahead of time. But I think it's fair to point out that you didn't like Bill Maher to begin with. Maher's audience doesn't want him gone. There...

    Bill Maher

    So, Bill Maher called himself a "house n***a" in an impromptu joke when offered to work in the fields in Nebraska by Senator Benjamin E. Sasse on last Friday's Real Time on HBO. There's some hellacious backlash with people calling for the show to be canceled. Several people have defended him...

    This Is Your Life Segment

    If boring is what we should expect for "real" heels in 2017, then we can't expect to have a good product. It doesn't work that way in any other media. Lots of people love Loki too, but that's part of what makes The Avengers a good movie. You want heels to be entertaining to add to the product...

    This Is Your Life Segment

    The segment wasn't crap the way they meant it to be. Alexa's doing a good job overall, yes. But this segment was not suppose to be boring and cringy. It was suppose to make Alexa seem like a total bitch. Instead it just made both talent look bad. She's suppose to look like a good heel. That way...

    This Is Your Life Segment

    Since the magic of the first This Is Your Life between Mankind and The Rock back in the late 90s, this segment has reoccurred several times with little to no success. And they keep trying to do it. This time is was Alexa Bliss using the segment on Bailey, in what was arguably the most cringy...

    All Hail The Maharaja: Jinder Mahal Is The *NEW* WWE Champion

    I've seen a few people call it a joke. I love it. I don't see it as a joke. It's fair to argue they didn't spend enough time building Mahal as a credible threat, and the Bollywood Boys were kind of used to supplement his lack of credibility. But I'm glad it happened. It's fresh. He looks the...

    Benedict Arnold is calling from the grave to thank Donald Trump

    True, but I think it's fair to say that certain actions and organizations need some additional checks and balances. Senate approvals, actual reasons given for termination. Approval hearings or veto powers to prevent things like this from happening. It's slowly dawned on me how much power the...

    Benedict Arnold is calling from the grave to thank Donald Trump

    This has been thrown around repeatedly, but Comey's firing just screams "Saturday Night Massacre" from the Nixon administration. The only problem is, with a couple of exceptions, the Republican party seems to be completely A-OK with what's going on. I don't know if it's denial, greed, or ego...

    Went To A WCPW Event Last Night

    Exactly how many women has Prince Ameen slept with at this point? Rumor has it, he's sitting pretty at over 20,000. And how dare you describe The Local Hero as "pretty good"?! He's class refined into the shell of a man!
