Did they seriously just dismiss the (terrible) Black Lotus storyline with,"Oh she went back to Hong Kong"?

Huh. Filthy Tom on F4D being incredulous that contracts exist and you can't just peace out whenever you want. "What other jobs do people have where they're forced into these things?" Every other sport? Including wrestling?

pro wrestling contracts would be completely legally untenable though if anyone ever actually challenged them

She's presumably off getting her homies together for vengeance purposes. "She went back to Hong Kong" is just the explanation for why she's not after Pentagon or Azteca right this second.

Never see them brought up much but the voices of wrestling website has a bunch of good podcasts, I mainly listen to the flagship one and the shakethemropes podcast. Though Joe Lanza can get really grating when he goes off on a rant. Like last week when he was yelling about why people don't like Mauro; guy was near tears about how he didn't give a gently caress if John Cena kid fans didn't understand Mauro's puro references HE DID! It was pretty funny, but somewhat cringey http://www.voicesofwrestling.com/2016/09/21/wwe-cruiserweights-clash-champions/

the flagship VOW podcast has some of the better analysis out there but you gotta have a finger on fast forward for whenever they go on some non wrestling tangent or Joe goes on an obnoxious rant at nameless Twitter people

Outside of that, VOW Flagship is a recommend from me, especially when they cover some of the smaller purl companies.
