It's really funny that the ROH fake news goes back to the guy who started the Aubrey is Don Stevens rumor.

He spoke to Joe Koff personally! Tony Khan’s in big trouble, mister.

Jon Moxley is a good wrestler who does very little for me, I'll watch if he's against someone I care about but otherwise he's not someone I think about since he works on the other side of the world to promotions I watch

For content, have a thread favourite decrying the HAHA in Nooj over serious promotions like DDT

I was reading the replies to some tweet about an NHL trade and came across someone who was very adamant about their opinion even though they didn't seem to understand how anything works, looked at the username and realized I'd stumbled across a NecroEric tweet out in the wild.

I would probably concede that the first two lines are probably true, though obviously not the fault of Mox. I'm pretty sure I was still at least somewhat watching WWE at the time he was champion and I don't remember a god drat thing about his run except maybe he had some match with Triple H at Wrestlemania Roadblock?

Yeah, Mox's title run was kinda forgettable and tbh the most exciting part was when AJ Styles beat him at Backlash

e: the Triple H match was I think four months before Mox won the belt lmao

it is easily Triple H's last great match

or dont whatever








I remember the, “HOLD MY DIIIIICK” posting when he cashed in over Rollins, who just beat Reigns, then(?) got drafted to good smackdown… then… [SCENE MISSING].

I think that roadblock match against HHH was after HHH won the Royal Rumble & title? I recall falling for the false pin where HHH or Mox’s toe was barely underneath the ropes so it didnt count.

Mox beating Rollins and Reigns in a triple threat match and then going to Smackdown was like the last time I enjoyed WWE

THE LIAR
Ambrose's title reign was, in order.
- A great cash in.
- A fun TV feud with Rollins while Roman was gone for pissing hot. They had some good TV matches, one with a stupid finish, one with a good finish.
- The triple threat which was great.
- The Ziggler feud which was actually good and had some good back and forth promos until the match which was really underwhelming because of its place on the card.
- The AJ feud which was good but boy when it was over they got Ambrose OUT of the title scene and he never got close again.

IIRC that was when the IWC turned on Moxley because he didn’t want to talk about his personal life on the Stone Cold podcast.

I forget the details but Ellsworth was Dean's little buddy for a while, and then turned on him and became AJ's little buddy for a while, and then a few months later he was Carmella's sex slave or something, and then they stopped using him and he turned out to be a kid creeper so now we try to pretend that whole thing never happened.

Possibly, I always just think of him as a BASARA guy though, since that's what he's credited under in his DDT/GanPro appearances. He does rule though, the tag team match he was part of at Wrestle Sekigahara was phenomenal

I meant did they turn on Ambrose after the stone cold podcast. I don't remember people turning on him but granted the only wrestling opinions I really see are here, a little bit of twitter and my family.

They are claiming Sinclair still owns part of ROH because Tony hosed something up and Sinclair is pissed, which they know because they called Joe Koff on the phone.

In reality they used a lovely online free aggregator that made it look like ROH is still owned by Sinclair when that is not the case.
