Alex Shelley, Chris Sabin, Lio Rush, and Jay White vs The Briscoes, Jay Lethal, and Silas Young on this week's ROH TV is a ton of fun. Rush and White are freakin' great.

What's going?

Kyle is leaving. Others I don't know yet.

You said 'mass exodus'. I'd take that to mean at least three top talents.

I kinda think that if TNA put their title on someone who wasn't signed (as they have on multiple occasions) we'd be laughing them out of the room.

why the gently caress is he trying to wrestle a style he's not cut out for

The kind where he does moves in a ring? Bull James sucks at everything.

AJ Styles hates gays, loves Trump and has questions about whether or not the Earth is flat.
Has anyone been able to stand being in a room with Bull James long enough to ask him about these issues

I think WWE could make something of Dijak. He always seemed like someone that belonged there anyhow.

If Bubba is back in companies where he isn't getting tested, why is he still so loving fat? What happened to CALFZILLA? Did Bubba eat him?

Don't underestimate his ability to pork up. Wasn't it like a month or two between him being Calfzilla in TNA and him being fat as hell again for that Rumble return?

No the take is that it's not true, but all the wrestlers are taking off because they think it's true

Except none of the wrestlers are leaving because they respect the craft of wrestling too much or some poo poo.

I'm actually sad about the naivete here.

I've been doing this for 46 years.

That Jeff Jarrett story is so obviously ridiculous I don't even know where to start.

Like I'm reporting about WWE talks with ROH based on a rumor from Jeff Jarrett. I mean, Ryan Satin isn't either, but just the idea anyone who reads this site can't see through that is amazing.

Good news and happy he didn't go with TNA (he played Suicide a couple of tapings ago)

No it was Caleb Konelly or however you spell it

Yeah, Konley is playing the character now, though by the looks of the taping spoilers he's also working under his own name so I dunno.

That's not really a low price point for a streaming video service. I've had a few go higher like MLB.tv and MotoGP's online service but I'd guess those get far higher value for TV rights than WWE does.

Its pretty low for an exhaustive (or close to it) catalogue of past and future content like WWE provides. Even Netflix rotates stuff out, and is certainly not an exhaustive catalogue of movies/tv or anything close to it. Shudder is the same, and is more of a curated selection.

Sportswise, Fight Pass doesn't get you every UFC event either. MLB.TV and NHL Gamecentre don't give you every baseball and hockey game or anything like that.

New Japan World is pretty close to the Network, content-wise, but they're the exception rather than the rule.

A reminder that every dollar you give to WWE is a dollar that doesn't go to Sinclair.

Weird that you would try to defend giving the money to WWE instead of to some other company. But hey the company that paid to be a part of the evil is clearly better than the one sewing the seeds of the evil. Both aren't worth my money.

Weird that you think my posting on this subject is any more serious than your own, or that "sewing seeds" is a thing.
