Re: Bully Ray Allegedly Shouts Down a Fan Backstage

I don't think anyone who plays (or recently played) an in-ring or on-screen role should interact with the fans as security or representative of the promotion. How shall a fan know whether it's real or part of the show?

Re: Bully Ray Allegedly Shouts Down a Fan Backstage

I guess what counts as "coarse language and gestures" is in the eye of the beholder. What seems highly inappropriate in one environment looks normal in another. And this environment is set by the people in the ring and on the microphone. And why does Bully Ray, of all people, think that he...

Re: Bully Ray Allegedly Shouts Down a Fan Backstage

I'm just wondering, since it's discussed whether the fan should have been ejected or not, and what would happen in WWE: What is the legal background of ejecting someone from a show for which he bought a ticket? After all, there is a contract with him that the wrestling promoter has to fulfil. And if...

Jay Lethal vs Jordynne Grace would be awesome.

Have there been other female talents announced for the Battle Royal yet?
(I guess the Zombie Princess doesn't count.)

Re: All In - Chicago, IL - Saturday, September 1, 2018

So, how can people outside of the U.S., and Americans who don't have WGN, watch the Zero Hour?

Looking at All In's twitter, it's asked by many people, but the questions are ignored.

Re: Women of Honor Thread

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LFq8s9pcIXU Completely forgot Jenny Rose vs. Kagetsu was to take place in Stardom. Do they have no rules, or at least no DQ's in Stardom? Kagetsu's cronies choked Jenny in front of the ref, and Kagetsu even spit in his face. This referee looked like a complete joke, ...

Then again, who will not pale in comparison to Lacey?

It's great to see Rain back.
I'm glad she's recovered from the injuries she suffered in a car wreck briefly after her retirement.

She's a dental medicine student, so I guess she won't sign a full-time wrestling contract anytime soon.

Re: FloSports Files Lawsuit Against WWN

Because the idea is that if you're getting not just EVOLVE but all of the WWN promotions, plus whoever else FloSlam signs up (IPW:UK, Beyond, Joey Janela's promotion, etc.) for the same price, it would be a good enough deal to attract more people. Sure, but everyone who was already watching the oth...

Re: FloSports Files Lawsuit Against WWN

Just wondering: How could they believe that the FloSlam concept works? If you offer about five new shows per month for the price of less than two iPPVs, you need to triple your audience. Otherwise it's either a loss for WWN or FloSports (depending on how much is paid between them). Why should not on...

Re: How Long Have You Been An ROH Fan?

I think it was in 2010. After watching a lot of wrestling in the 1990's, I stopped to watch Sports Entertainment completely in the early 2000's, knowing close to nothing about independent wrestling at this time. This changed in a hurry in 2009, when I discovered SHIMMER. After watching all of their ...

Re: What talents catch your interest?

First and foremost it's Mickie Knuckles for me. She was one of the wrestlers who made me a fan again after a five year hiatus. And not being in promotions like SHIMMER, she made me check out AIW, Resistance Pro, RWA and even OVW. Next is Jordynne Grace , who is one of the greatest young talents who ...

Re: WORST World Champions

I was thinking of Sable first, but thinking it over, I'd say Debra McMichael takes the cake.

That was in 1999, she won the belt from the aforementioned Sable, but before her, the lineage went (with two big gaps) from Moolah to Jacqueline. No divas, just wrestlers, or no active World title.

Re: Stuff that annoys you

OK, ROH isn't following the concept of a TV title anymore, but... Even the "Honor Heritage Title" would have been better. I always wondered: What is the idea of a "Heritage Title"? Jim Crockett introduced a "Western States Heritage Title" in the late 1980's, shortly aft...

The masked Headbangers were not useless, just jobbers, in my opinion.

But post-Steen SCUM was pretty useless, like the late NWO.

Re: Women's wrestling in ROH

That was awesome.
Kelly Klein, the no-nonsense badass, sold her frustration about Solo Darling's nonsense very well.
And Solo has found her perfect gimmick. Perfect to put over heels at the end, but characters like this are important in wrestling too.
