But Tegan Nox/Nixon Newell's knee injury is the worst I've ever heard in any sport. Will be a complete miracle if she ever wrestles again.

Don't expect any of her MYC injury match to be shown. They will just skip over it and explain it.

The worst knee injury I've seen in sports is Shaun Livingston. Tore the three main ligaments: ACL, MCL, and PCL, dislocated and fractured the knee cap. Here's a pic of it where you can see his kneecap... not in its normal place :barf:

You have more fun as a follower. But you make more money as a leader.

There was that Louisville basketball player a few years ago whose leg shattered into a million pieces right in front of his team's bench. Their reaction and the GIF is still seared into my memory.

So ... yeah, gonna take a lot for Tegan Nox to top that.

Joe Theismann's injury was so bad that mangling your leg in football is often called getting "Theisman'd". Still the standard IMO.

Dunno. But since the injury technically happened under Vince's watch (company), he'll probably set her up with a cushy job for life. He's carny as gently caress, but I've heard he takes care of his employees who suffer career ending injuries.

I feel like there are so many backstage personalities that Tegan would get lost in the shuffle. Not trying to slight her, I just hope that she has a happy comfortable life after this injury and rehab.

She was good at holding a crowd in a post-match or post-show show promo.

Personally suggested her to replace NXT UK GM Johnny Saint who is 77 years old and got really lost relaying information at the NXT UK tapings.

They seem to have been more right than wrong lately, and it's really not hard to see it being true considering Vince loves doing this to the fanbase it seems.

Lanza's broken a fair amount of scoops, and Dave and rovert each said weeks ago the plan at that point was Brock winning and Reigns getting the big win over Brock at Mania. This is by no means far-fetched, and it's entirely possible the only thing that changes day of is how much F5s Reigns kicks out of before the one that puts him away

Have they finalized the date for Brock to fight Cormier for the title? December was what I'd last seen as a guess. I imagine Vince wants Brock to carry the belt to press conferences and maybe to the Octagon for the fight?

like, this is it. this is the one angle they actually don't mind doing long-term booking for. it's hilarious

I think if the build for the match were actually Brock and Reigns coming out and personally promising each fan it was legit going to be the last match they would have, it wouldn't even get Mania 20 Goldberg/Brock levels of attention/hate because half the audience would be genuinely grateful for it, and the other half outright wouldn't believe them because holy poo poo this is never ending

If I'm keeping track correctly, if the plan is for Brock to go over, when Vince changes his mind the day of the show this time, Roman will be the one to win.

Brock'll win at Summerslam, then they'll rematch at Survivor Series, then they'll rematch at Royal Rumble, and then just when they're finally, finally, finally about to let Roman win, he blows his quad and he retires.

Yup. This all hinges on Brock actually beating Cormier though, and I don't think that's happening. Brock is going to get loving destroyed.

Nope.

The earliest Brock can fight is January due to USADA testing. It's unlikely but they could get an exemption for Brock so he could fight sooner. However they did that before his last fight against Hunt and he popped positive on that. Doubtful they want to repeat that mistake but $$$$$

DC would probably be major up for that, tbh.

Problem there is, boy oh boy, Roman would not get cheered against DC.
