So despite Vince having left WWE, he still has a 80% decision right majority with them. He's trying to force his way back into WWE claiming he got 'bad advice' to quit over allegations he left over. I cannot believe he'd be so insane to do this given it's already hit WWE share prices. 

The Wrestling News (great eight minute daily podcast to listen too) was reporting that members of the board are looking to sue him for damages to the company. So thankfully we don't have anything to worry about. Whilst the weekly shows are very hit and miss at the minute it's still a big improvement on what Vince had been serving up for years.

Where did she post these? Asking for a friend. 

Saw some videos on Twitter yesterday. She's done well in NXT and reinvented herself from eye candy to eye candy that can wrestle but porn does seem like a natural fit...

Suzuki gun has disbanded :(. Not a great surprise as Taichi, Kanemaru and Lance Archer are the wrong side of 40, Suzuki is the wrong side of 50, and ZSJ & El Desperado are 35+, but it's still a sad moment, and I don't like that the ultimate heel faction of NJPW were disbanded with a whimper. I always wanted a Suzuki, Tanahashi career vs career match where you really didn't know who was gonna bow out to be the groups end, or for Taichi to turn on suzuki and a new heel leader to be established (was teased with Ibushi which would have been perfect). Instead he just grabs a mike and says 'yeah, cool 11 year run, but we're done now bye'.

AEW have signed another generic average looking wrestler that half the audience could beat up.

Meanwhile Miro has wrestled four times this year.

Everybody that's a 'pro wrestler' today lives for there video games and Twitter interactions whilst Matt Riddle's in a love triangle with two porn stars and going to rehab. What a throwback.

I don't think I could have done a worse job at killing Wardlow's momentum even if I tried.

 

 

I actually don't hate the hair angle (though Wardlow shouldn't be doing that job to joe) but they should have saved that for MJF. MJF should have defended his belt once more in a program with someone like Hangman or Darby, and then Wardlow should have got the spot, and this exact post match should have occurred.

It's sound like Vince has sold to the Saudi's and Stephanie has resigned.

It didn't last a week for him to nuke the company.

Then. Now. It's over.

There are rumours that sasha banks will join aew as Mercedes mone. She had debuted in njpw but its unclear if its a long term contract. I don't know that much about her but from what I  gather she is a big deal.

@Devil-Dick Willie @The Palace Fan Aapparently Tony Khan is interested in buying WWE. Don't expect it will happen though. They won't sell to him because of what it could do to wwe's legacy. Vince always says he beat wcw but it was actually because of a bad tv deal and other things which allowed him to buy it cheaply. Audiences are more knowledgeable now but tony could probably make up some shit that would damage wwe's legacy. Also ironically wcw could be bought back of he did buy it as wwe own the rights to it. 

I don't want it to happen though. WWE is a much bigger brand its not even comparable and aew could become a feeder for wwe which would be terrible

To be fair joe did attack him before the match. It wasn't a squash match. Mjf will gold the title for a few months which by then wardlow could have built up enough momentum to win the title if they decide to do that. To be fair there did seem to be a few boos for him. Maybe some fans aren't happy with him getting a title push

Tony Khan would be the worst person to buy WWE. WWE need an owner whose not going to interfere. There's no way Tony Khan will do that.

He'd have The Bloodline doing 45 second promos for weeks on end before losing to Jericho.

I think most owners would interfere. It wouldn't matter if the owner knows wrestling well and listens to others but if not it could cause problems. It's understandable when its your money. For an owner to not interfere they would need to know people who they trust completely to run it

A good owner let's competent staff get on with there jobs. Viacom with Bellator, Endeavour with UFC etc. Tony Khan would be well out of his depth working in such a behemoth of a company.  AEW 2022 was the worst booked year since WCW 2000.

Well they had a lot of injuries. And to be fair to him aew has booked well in the past. I know what you mean about good owners but I'm not sure if its that common to not get involved. I think a lot of rich people are controll freaks

Kushida will be wrestling Darby Allin. Should be a great match. When I briefly watched nxt kushida was my favourite wrestler. Fantastic in the ring. Unfortunately he's not signed with aew permanently
