Spuckuk posted:This is the dumbest loving thing I've ever seen, and I watch Mecha Mummy matches on DDT In a vacuum, if you completely eliminate Alexa Bliss and everything related to her from this and also the terrible CG walking thing before she came out, spooky clown wrestler slowly rising out of a hosed up jack in the box is a killer “big stage” one off special entrance. It makes sense that they would gently caress it up with all that other awful poo poo though.

The lazy lyrics are the absolute least of the problems with the entire Alexa Bliss part of that segment. You could write her the greatest theme song in all of wrestling and it wouldn’t save whatever that is supposed to be. People keep saying Harley Quinn but it’s like they’ve only ever had Harley Quinn explained to them by way of a bunch of paedophiles playing the telephone game or something.

The only video copy I’ve ever seen other than seeing it live is recorded off someone’s tv with the worst quality sound possible and doesn’t do the incredibly lovely performance justice. https://youtu.be/8IK4tnkN-LM This is a clean audio only version and you can just picture what they’re doing as you listen in horror, it’s very easy.

Didn’t he sign a new contract last year? They don’t need to worry about keeping him happy while he’s locked in, so they can afford to be as petty as they want for all their usual favourite reasons.

They don’t care about building their market in Japan just like they don’t care about building their market in the UK. It’s been very obvious for a long time now that regional NXT expansions will exist solely so they can get a stranglehold on upcoming local talent who might otherwise go anywhere else to work and make money for another promotion.

He talked about it on a podcast once. If I remember right, he and Jim Neidhart were trying to stand out and the person making their gear suggested hot pink, Vince saw it and loved it and that was that. Edit: answered a question from the wrong thread I guess!

Like someone deepfaked Cena's face onto this guy's head but it's not exact. Is it just me? No I see it too now, that’s exactly what he looks like. Weird. It’s kind of like someone stretched Cena’s face over a smaller skull.

explosivo posted:So do they just.. get paid for the years remaining on the contract when they get terminated or does a contract just mean literally nothing? The contract is one-sided as gently caress and is the bulk of the reason everyone says WWE is such a lovely company to work for. The default is get paid for their no-compete period, and you can probably figure out that if they had to pay them the full multi-year value of the contract on release anyway they’d just keep them in catering doing nothing so nobody else can use them like they already were.

NutritiousSnack posted:They usually have to pay up on the contract though. They don't walk away with nothing They walk away with a 3 month runway which is more than a lot of people get when they lose a job but isn’t going to be anything close to what they expected to make.

StarkRavingMad posted:The whole match is weird, too. Like, at the start it seems like Leyla wants to work shoot-style with her (which isn't unusual, it's how she starts a lot of her matches) and Shanna either doesn't want to or doesn't know how, so Leyla just kind of does stuff to her. But then there's stuff later in the match that clearly wouldn't work right if they weren't still working together to some degree. I don't think that armbar is a shoot because even getting into it required a reversal off a move where Shanna could have just dumped Leyla on her head if she wanted to. But clearly something wasn't right and they both seemed pissed at the end. Watch the arm bar, it starts out worked and then you can see what looks like Leyla getting annoyed (presumably because Shanna isn’t tapping out as quickly as she ought to be), then she positions her other leg infront of Shanna’s free arm and right after that it looks like she twists the elbow of the arm she’s holding and she taps immediately.

Coming at it from the most generous angle possible, he’s a black guy who was playing a queer-coded character which is like a pair of giant flashing signs to the kind of fuckheads who like to pile on and gently caress up someone’s life. He probably did do it though.
