Don't know if this is already being discussed somewhere, but Bix's Stan Lane/Lauren Boebert story is out, and it's wild.

Keith Lee will leave WWE. Book it. He’s not happy. This ain’t a health issue at all.

I've been involved in a number of cults, both as a leader and a follower.

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



It doesn’t matter if you need him or not, he’s the kind of star where if he becomes available, you make a play for him.

But yeah, would love to see him doing matches with Cage, Archer, Hobbs

Is Vince McMahon the most important, influential, and powerful man anywhere in the history of Professional Wrestling that provably neither likes nor understands professional wrestling, and despises those that do?

It's painfully clear Vince has always wanted to be a television sitcom writer and producer and never a professional wrestling promoter

Vince, like Trump, is in that category of “trash billionaire”. He made his money doing crooked, uncouth, carny poo poo which means he will never receive the true acceptance into the old money upper class that he desperately craves so he spent his whole life bitter and hating his own creation but never being able to let go of it because it’s the only reason he was in spitting distance of the upper class in the first place.

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.

Allegedly they stopped doing that during the pandemic because a) who is going to loving stop them from paying their talent better and b) since the talent wasn't traveling from show to show anymore, their NXT base-pay was more than enough for these losers.

But again, like Trump, money from only 1 generation back from their dads making their money from the exact same crooked carny poo poo on a smaller scale

I wonder with how hot the indie circuit is going to be post-COVID, it might not be worth it for some people with expiring contracts and a name to get $$$$paid$$$$ thrice every weekend instead of taking the AEW money.

I dunno why you wouldn't take both if AEW is an option, since they don't care about people working indie dates.

In a "post-Covid" world those two things are not independent of each other (but people who went to the WWF and then escaped should wrestle somewhere that doesn't have a bunch of people I already like who don't get airtime), hell if you ask Joey Janela those two things weren't independent of each other in the time of Covid.

Do they not care, or are they just more lenient? If you have to run all your bookings through TK, who knows. They talked a lot about how people would be allowed to, but it never really got pushed before things got shut down. Curious to see what happens!

AEW contracted talent have regularly worked indie dates, the only restriction was really requested/enforced was after the breakout at a Warrior Wrestling show with AEW talent headlining.

Yeah didn't have like, Tay working in JB's spot with Luchasaurus in tags or something cool?

It was always part of the plan since trying stuff out the main AEW focus areas allows the performers to expand and test things. (He'd just rather those things weren't covid) TK actually likes indie wrestling.

Well, wrestling in general. Same idea with doing stuff on BTE and vlogs.
