I want to say the talent is Jinder but I can’t think of the movie.

I mean, Randy Orton inspired Inside Out, but it can't be him.

it was either veer or shanky, i remember hearing something about how they have an insanely inspirational true story that WWE has never told us

MLB had a talent scouting expedition to India and he was a poor kid who with no training and terrible form managed to be one of the hardest throwers they had ever seen. He was offered a contract and became the first Indian to play professional baseball and spent a couple of years in the minors.

The tv show of the talent search and also the movie was million dollar arm. Dave did a bit on him on won last week and how dumb it was to not use it as a great base for a baby face.

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.

I don't know... they're not really all that wrong? It's the same thing everyone here has said for years – main roster WWE constantly devalues NXT to the point that you start to lose the desire to even watch it, because you know the people you enjoy are just going to end up eating dogshit in a year.

The former drug addict thing is a low blow and gross to call out, especially if Jeff has worked to get clean, but the overall sentiment still makes sense. It's wild that it took until it happening to Karrion loving Kross for people to actually get tired of it, though.

If Vince will even do that to a big strong muscle man then it means NXT really is worthless.

Because the gimmick isn't trolling AEW fans, it's circlejerking about how bad AEW is with your friends who already agree with you.

What Lamuella said and also, they love to bring up Kenny wrestling the blow-up doll and whatnot, but they never seem to have an answer when you point out that he was filling up Sumo Hall and Budokan in those years. :v:

The best part is people would probably forget about it and it would be this obscure little fun thing if Cornette and his adjacents didn't bring it up constantly.

They could save the business.

I thankfully have no firsthand experience with this but I have to think that a can of dog food and a British microwaveable hamburger are not as distinct as we would perhaps like to believe.

Imagine thinking you couldn't have an opinion on a movie if you didn't also work in the film industry.

You'd come out of the theater and the only thing you'd have the right to say is "That sure was a movie."

Al Snow going from the guy who owes his entire career to a blowjob joke to the serious wrestleman is bizarre and I have to think some kind of work.
