Is that voice and backstory a gimmick from Sara Logan? I never heard her speak before so maybe its not.

Of the younger people, Miranda Salinas is the main person with signing buzz.


That's really funny because i thought she was one of the worst people there.

If they were only able to sign 4 people it should be Jazzy, Mia, Candice, and Shayna. Toni, Santana and Piper should get looked at because Toni is probably the 2nd best wrestler in the whole tournament and i thought Piper vs Santana was the best match of the first round.

Yeah, I don't know why WWE is targeting India when they could be targeting Brazil. The market there seems a lot more profitable/lucrative over India right now. I remember the poll WWE.com put up asking who will win the MYC, and Taynara was WAY ahead of everyone else.

They have a handful of brazilian people in developmental just like india and china, so they are aware.

So in STARDOM news, I guess I can state it again, Mandy Leon is quite possibly one of the worst workers I have ever seen.

What ROH sees in her, I'll never loving know. And I feel bad for Io Shirai, having to work with dead weight like that.

Delirious and her are loving.

Yeah, the gimmick was that Burchill was just a guy deciding he wanted to be a pirate. The whole thing with Regal was trying to get Burchill to drop the pirate stuff, like you can see in the clip.

Vince didn't understand that at all and thought he should actually think he's a pirate.

It was also because Vince didn't get the pirate gimmick because nobody likes pirates, they aren't popular or good guys and wasn't aware that the Pirates of the Carribean franchise was a thing that was going on and actually popular.

I do. Her flow and movements look awful for a person with over a year of professional wrestling.I don't enjoy watching her work because her lovely movements make it clear it's a fake fight where she has to pull her punches, and her opponents need to not just run into her despite her incredibly slow movements.


I love how you think wrestling for a year means everyone has to be really good at wrestling from then on.

My thoughts on Kairi being in the title hunt now: She should lose, but get the title either at the Royal Rumble Takeover or Wrestlemania Takeover at the absolute latest.

There was plans for a ROH/STARDOM mini tournament in the US October/November time leading up to Final Battle to crown a WOH Champion at one stage. With the Final being the Final Battle opener. But obviously that seems to be dropped.

Blame Delirious and him pushing his god awful girl friend and whatever Kelly Klein's got on them. Stardom knew they partnered with the wrong people.

Delirious once stole my hat and used it as a weapon against Jigsaw who sold it like he got hit with a brick.

But Mandy doesn't win as often as Karen Q or Kelly Klein.

You're out of your mind. She's the star of WOH next to Klein. Karen's not even signed unlike the other 2.

If i learned anything from Netflix cancelation news is that they'll kill like any series after like 3 seasons no matter what so it's better off if you just do one contained season, maybe two but call it a day after that.
