So at WrestleCircus tonight the Rachel Ellering/Christi Jaynes match was a weird mess that ended with an even weirder rollup and Rachel just booking it out of there. Anyone have the SCOOPZ on what the hell is up there?

I have no idea, but it almost seems like Christi might have been in no condition to wrestler ala Sting/Jeff Hardy? Either that or Christi just didn't wanna do what was planned. Very odd either way.

Yeah, that could be. Usually she's way more animated and she just seemed off. Definitely strange.

Sure.

Jaynes, a green comedy act wanted to have a 50/50 match. While Ellering rightfully wanted 60/40 and 70/30 and even offered to lose to Jaynes in the end. It is reasonable that Ellering would need to look good after losing her title last show to Tessa Blanchard. They went to the ring still not fully agreeing.

When it hit the ring Jaynes panicked as she can't chain wrestle and thought Ellering was going to shoot on her. Then Jaynes started botching. So Rachael just put her over and just rolled out of the ring.

The situation has gotten messier the last few hours. Al and Lexi are very green when it comes to these matters. Currently are incorrectly siding with Jaynes on the situation.

Christi Jaynes has a bad rep. For example Inspire Pro Wrestling in Texas, run by a HUGE supporter of women's wrestling won't book Jaynes.

That's insane. Ellering should have been booked to win anyway but it's nuts that they went out there so unsure of what to do. Really weird feeling in the room the entire time because I don't think there was a single move that wasn't a botch, then lots of standing around talking.

Equally bizarre that WC is siding with Christi.

Also, in the future if someone asks if anyone has the details on something and you do, they also want to know the details and not just a confirmation that you know things. Thanks!

I am surprised that no one is talking about the Lio Rush spot from last night.

A lot of indy wrestlers have complained about the idea.

I can't think of any way that that spot makes sense. If Ospreay and Ricochet killed the business with their spots, Lio Rush took a chainsaw to the corpse.

The fact that Lio also ate a Package Piledriver after that and kicked out at 2, then the match ended after the 3rd pedigree and at least 4th WWE reference and a double stretcher job, was complete poo poo

If he would have did the FIGHTING SPIRIT hulk-up it would have at least looked better

Or maybe if Janela had hooked the leg and Rush kicked out at 1

But yeah standing up like that looks terrible

And it was the insanest poo poo.

The JJ/Lio match was fine for being their shot at creating an epic match. A bit overwrought in spots but the imagery was nice.

So this was the garbled story I got about CZW/Onita:

CZW was talking possibly doing a six man because they were legit worried Tremont was gonna die. Tremont argued out of it and they kept it a singles. Onita sees the poo poo he's gonna have to work with explosion-wise, rebooks the match. Onita and CZW go around for a bit until they agreed on this. CZW was not prepared for the promo at the end. The entire CZW crew marked out for Onita and let him run that place for a night.

That CZW undercard loving blew and I doubt I'll ever go to another one of their shows. Too many loving video packages and promos. Too many loving Nazis. That opener was pure garbage aside from Pandita and the Ghetto Strong Style dude's Bandwagonesque trunks.

But the main event was perfect and Onita is the best.

What was Tremont hospitalized for?

The point of wrestling is that it hurts. It just makes a mockery of all wrestling. That spot retroactively makes me enjoy all previous table spots I've seen less.

It's not like he didn't take the spot though. I bet it hurt like hell. He's just that strong and rad. Also it's loving CZW I've seen some of the dumbest spots I've ever seen in that company. Who gives a poo poo.

Ospreay cut the same promo after the Melbourne City Wrestling show on the weekend so I'm inclined to think he might be legit relocating. He's also working a show in Melbourne in a couple of weeks which Bad Luck Fale is also going to be on.

Oz is much more convenient for working Japan. I'm guessing he's incredibly beat up physically, so just working Japan and a few Aussie indies and resting up the rest of the time should be great for him.

There were ten other things about Lio/Janela that made me mad before the no sell even happened. When he popped up before a 1 count even happened I was back on board. It's good.
