What are you guys thoughts on wrestling figures? Do you collect them or are they #1 bullshit?

I recently stumbled upon Wrestling Daze Channel on Youtube and his thing is reviewing Mattel toys and i cant lie..some off those look really cool. But i am 30 year old dude and dont really know if i want to spend money on toys

What says you wrestling friends.

I’ve got Alexa Bliss and Braun Strowman Funko Pops, and those are good enough for me.

Is John Cena a wrestler still or has he completely moved on?

There was talk a while ago about how he was going to win one of the world titles when SDL moves to Fox? Which, I mean, if they do that now, okay then, but at this point it seems like it'd just come out of nowhere

if they were serious about making NXT into the actual third brand and the NXT title actually important, I honestly think Gargano should've retained against Cole, Cena should've challenged Gargano at Toronto, and Gargano should've beaten Cena clean, but that's never going to happen now

I asked a wrestle chat I'm in whether super humman was developmentally disabled and one person replied that they think Joey Janela is too.

Just because he's fully developed for South Jersey doesn't mean he meets normal standards.

And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.

Depends on who you are and what your looking to define it as. I think, the technical television term would be background or monitor VTR, but AEW's twitter called it an entrance video wall, which also composes all of the pieces of it into one phrase.

I asked my internet buddy who worked for WWE’s video department and he said they’re simply ”entrance videos”.

Who are the most trustworthy and untrustworthy sources in wrestling? I love listening to podcasts and shoots on YT for wrestling history but I'm never quite sure who to believe.

I mainly stick with Meltzer and Cornette.

I never listen to Bruce Prichard because he doesn't seem to be capable of admitting the WWE ever did anything wrong.

Vince Russo is the most untrustworthy because he, like Hogan, can't tell the difference between what happened/is happening, and the story he's told himself to make himself feel better or look good.

Fumi Saito since you already listen to Meltzer and for something different The Voices of Wrestling Flagship.

Dave tended to talk about Wally more than Fumi before Fumi joined the site. So if you didn't read the "Special Thanks" paragraph no one reads you wouldn't really know about his reputation.

It looks snug but he pretty clearly shifts almost all of his weight to his left leg and rotates towards the mat when he lands? Kind of just looks like a really perfectly delivered knee drop to me
