Not sure if we have a place to put random news so making this.

First thing is Shotzi is out for 9 months due to an ALC tear.

But the reason I made this thread is here is a stupidly cute video of Asuka going to a Japanese bar devoted to women's wrestling and meeting a super fan.  Subtitles are in English to give the general idea of what they are saying.

Officially your longest reigning IC Champion ever.

Not only the record for the most cumulative days as champion but also the longest singular reign in history.

Happy to have this thread up for fun little social media posts, but obviously if a story is big enough you should consider making it a separate thread.

The mods don't mind if you flood the board with topics.

I miss the old IC belt. 

I also miss WALTER

I think it's the only time that belt has looked good.

Yeah, was thinking this would be for more little stories that do not really need threads and the random social media stuff.  Kind of also wanted a place to share Drew's shitposting on twitter as rapidly hitting Nyla levels of awesome.

If Walter drops that IC title I want him moving up to main event status immediately. As that is the sole reason I would take it from him, to move him to main event.

I moved the Drew Mac discussion to it's own thread and the Tonga posts to the 2024 Acquisitions/Release thread

This thread is for WWE posts that don't belong in another thread. WWE shit posting if you will.

Got confirmation of why Riddle was fired. Failed numerous tests for cocaine.  

Turns out that Daniel Rodimer (former WWE Tough Enough contestant) is wanted man in Las Vegas for murder.


Remember when he annoyed Big Show by sandbagging him in a segment on Smackdown.

Reports are after Sasha becoming the highest paid female wrestler that some WWE girls are hoping they will get paid more comparatively to men. While I do not think AEW is a good place for most girls, I suspect some will threaten to jump over pay come contract time.

Take it for what it is worth, but seems heat on Booker T for saying has heat with Punk.

For people not seeing it elsewhere, Brett Lauderdale cracked the most forbidden door and Shayna will work Bloodsport. Rumors are she is not the only one from WWE debuting in GCW in a few weeks.

Opponent not been announced yet. Maki, Masha Slamovich and Ronda would all be good guesses, all people who appeared in AEW.

Minoru Suzuki will be working the show too, another person who did a lot of AEW appearances.

Yep looks like it's on Booker

Oh yeah, for Bloodsport Johnny Manynames is on the show fighting Barnett, so will be a show with both signed WWE and AEW talent.

Vince is "gone" so open borders for promotions!!!

Corny fans losing their fucking minds over WWE working with one of his most hated feds.

More details. Was HHH's decision to let people work indy dates wrestlemania weekend. My guess is if they were not working the main show, they could work the various other events taking place that weekend. So far still only Shayna revealed, but seems indy dates now will be handled on a case by case basis by HHH himself and reports all are that she is not the only person taking indy dates that weekend.

I imagine this is to break the monopoly it seems AEW has on relations with the wrestling world after WWE lost signings on a string of people they were scouting who went to AEW instead.  And this makes sense, if the only people working indy shows are people who were unhappy in WWE, it gives WWE a very good look for outside people thinking of signing.  Have them encounter people totally happy being in WWE and attitudes towards WWE may start to change.  And connections to feds will build up with WWE should they start to scout indy workers again.

Jade embracing her inner Nyla.

AJ Styles thinks a lot about HHH. Highlights:

"This isn’t the same WWE that Vince was in charge of."

“I really believe that Triple H looks at our talent and goes, ‘Alright, let’s get them better or let’s find ways to bring out the best in them rather than show off the worst.’

“A lot of those guys and girls, when they got released from WWE, it crushes them. I never understood why we would want to do something like that rather than just like, ‘Ok, let’s send them back to NXT, they just need a little bit more work’ or something like that.

“Being released, it’ll crush you and I don’t want to see people, their lives being ruined because of a job. At the end of the day, it’s just a job, but still, it’s something they’ve worked for their whole life and then when you’re told you’re not good enough, man, that sucks.

“But that’s not the way it is these days. Now, with Triple H in charge, I think he’s doing a great job of making everyone feel important.”

Some very disturbing Ronda news. She had a bunch of serious concussions and hide them from both UFC and later WWE. Said that was why she stopped MMA, and likely why she will not do much wrestling moving forward.

Every since JC Bailey died, always been freaked out by this as multiple concussions close to together like Ronda was talking about is what led to his sudden death when he took another blow to the head.

:lol: :lol: Big Pete your boy is trashing on your girl. What's going on. AAH-SOO-KUH.

Goldberg not ready for Asuka.

'Some Japanese girl'.   :suspic:

Dude, she could out wrestle you every day and twice on Sundays.  Add this to my reasons of why I hate Goldberg and to the reasons why I love HHH.  

WWE announced Clash at the Castle in Glasgow, Scotland on June 15th.

RAW this week was the 13th consecutive sell out and the largest gate in RAW history. Ever. Of all time. The biggest ever.

They better have locked down Drew if they are running Scotland.

No one draws like Rock.  Now he is in the mix regularly, these are must see shows.
