That's $12,995 more than I currently have in savings.

I was pretty worried about Seth Rollins's financial management until I read the article and saw that it was about someone else.

I think MetsFan4Ever poo poo can firmly be put in this thread.

His latest posting could be his best work yet:

quote:

News coming out of Corpus Christi, TX today is that many officially heading into WrestleMania season, many superstars are greatly divided on who should actually win the Rumble match. There are many on the side of Roman Reigns and those who are believe he is the future and next John Cena of the company. There are also others that feel Daniel Bryan should be the guy and that if he isn't we will see another disappointing ending to the Rumble match much like last year.

There are officials in the company who believe letting Daniel Bryan win and main event the biggest show of the year is a huge risk considering his past injury history. There are those that feel Bryan truly is a "B" level player and will never be truly at the top of the card because of his past injuries and his long-term future still in question.

I was also told that about 45-minutes ago Triple H held a talent meeting stating that they are not sure who is going to win the Rumble match and main event WrestleMania. He challenged all the Superstars in the next couple of weeks. They will be evaluated and then in a few weeks they will decide who should get the opportunity.

He's a mouthpiece for the fed to spin smarks. Acknowledge an issue so people don't think they're incompetent, spin Bryan's position so they can point to injury history as an excuse, set it up so their theoretically most dynamic main event of the year doesn't look like a forefone conclusion.

From the 10/27/97 Observer

quote:

This is ridiculous. The 9/22 issue spent four-and-a-half pages on the death of Fritz Von Erich. What the hell am I paying for? I can understand a half page, even a page, but four-and-a-half pages? It's time to speak up. I ignored the issue with the story about some dead Roller Derby lady. This was the final straw. I get this newsletter because it's the best. I've tried all the others and it's the best. But if you're going to keep this up every time somebody dies, you're going to lose readers. Nobody cares about a lengthy story surrounding a wrestlers' death. If we don't already know about their career, after they die isn't the time to start educating us. Simply tell us that the guy died, what names he wrestled under and a few quick facts about his career. It's hypocritical to go any deeper and I'm not paying for that crap much longer.

And almost a decade later, the WON with a bio about Ann Calvello might well have been one of his best ever issues.

That he wasn't writing that much about him until after he died? I don't know. Reading that was painful.

Is anyone on Mecca or Asylum irrationally excited about the JR/Striker TNA namedrops on WK9 potentially leading to international exposure for the company, or is it dead to them because Styles and Jarrett are TNA turncoats?

I've seen those folks bash NJPW pretty hard so it's quite likely they're unaware of it

Had a look and it really wasn't interesting. A few posted about it without incident. They made fun of Karen being bloated looking. They aren't as paranoid about New Japan as they are with ROH.

They know, but they hate NJPW for the Jarrett/AJ/okada (who said nasty things about TNA) connection and the fact that most of NJPW fans hate tna

It did, the 269k or so number that was floating before was without the West Coast factored in. Not sure if the replay immediately after was factored in.
