Given Japan's business is down and that Joshi aside from Bushiroad stardom doesn't pay super well I can see people going back if they want to get paid

Yeah, I don't want to see Sareee leave Japan again because I get to watch her kicking rear end in SEAd & Sendai Girls. But business in Japan for everyone except Stardom is down, the failure to bounce back from COVID has been a bummer because the quality of work is there but even New Japan aren't running Korakuen at full capacity these days

Please, this is all I have
I am very sympathetic to all the people fired and let go and then Triple H comes crawling back to them promising it will be different this time but he swears up and down that Vince won't release them this time

and then Vince releases them again because he's taken control of WWE again a fourth time

So long as they negotiate for guaranteed money it's not a complete loss.
(They don't have the leverage or smarts to do that do they?)

'I wrestled 10 matches, got released a year later and made more than most people do in 5 years in 2' is a win.

wwe does not structure contracts that athletes in real sports would get where if they sign for $9 million over 3 years they get the whole 9 million even if they're cut after year one.

I keep watching that clip. It's even funnier now. Dude has the defense mechanisms of the mighty Armadillo.

Except the "being an unaffected carrier of leprosy" thing. Probably not that.

I started getting access to the channel who airs WWE in the UK (it's TNT Sports) through my ISP & I sometimes see it when I'm scrolling through to find the latest cyclocross race (European Championships were today, not going to get to see that until this evening though) but Raw is still 3 hours, & I'm not even sitting through all of a New Japan 3 hour show these days, there's too much I'm actually excited about to endure a 15 minute Roman Reigns promo.

Have they at least stopped the camera cut every 0.7 seconds?
