TONY CAPONE RELAUNCHES NAWA PROMOTION
The North American Wrestling Alliance, a promotion run by Tony Capone in the early 1990s, has announced a relaunch and last night launched a new website at www.nawa-wrestling.com
The promotion originally ran the Westchester County area in New York, securing a TV slot nationally on Sportschannel America in the summer of 1992, utilizing names that included Sean Waltman (as the Lightning Kid), the late Hercules Hernandez, Tommy Dreamer, Taz, The Hater, Johnny Rotten (soon to become Johnny Grunge), S.D. Jones and others, including giving Joey Styles his first ever announcing experience. In an interesting piece of history, several years later when ECW needed a new production team, Styles remembered the production crew from NAWA - Ron Buffone and Charlie Bruzesse, leading to their long through Extreme Championship Wrestling. The pair now work for Impact Wrestling while Bruzesse is also a top producer for MLW.
The promotion ran for several months and then later returned on a larger scale in 1999, running the Westchester County Center with Bruno Sammartino, Shane Douglas, Sid Vicious, The Public Enemy and more appearing.
Capone announced the return of the company several weeks ago, officially launching a website last night. The website lists former WWE and WCW star Paul Roma as the promotion's Chief Operating Officer with Roma's partner in the CT-based Paradise Alley Pro Wrestling school, Mario Mancini as the head of talent relations. Former ECW star Sal E. Graziano is also listed as working in talent relations. Robert Champion, who worked with Capone on the earlier incarnations of the NAWA is also back. Cyndi Snow (aka Bobcat) and longtime independent promoter Lou Reardon are also involved in the management side.
The talent roster listed on the website is highlighted by former WWE developmental talent Danny Inferno as well as number of Northeastern independent talents. WWE Hall of Famer Bushwhacker Luke Williams has cut a promo for the promotion, so the plan is for him to appear as well.
The promotion is already placing classic content on a YouTube channel and promising a "Jingle Brawl" event for this winter that will stream and feature limited fans live. The promotion's website also states they will be running regularly in New York City, upstate New York, Connecticut, New Jersey and other cities, including Chicago and Indianapolis, although when that may occur obviously depends on the COVID-19 pandemic.

WWE Hall of Famer Gerald Brisco was cut by WWE last night.
Brisco had been scouting talent for WWE of late and had been with the company since 1984, when he and his brother Jack sold their shares of Georgia Championship Wrestling to Vince McMahon in a clandestine meeting in LaGuardia Airport, giving Vince McMahon that promotion's TBS timeslot. Over the years, Brisco worked as an agent and had been one of McMahon's closest confidantes.

Who's The MORON Who Titled This Wrong On Bischoff's 83 Weeks Podcast?
Obviously somebody doesn't know what the fuck they're doing because what is titled as "Eric Bischoff Shoots On Jeff Jarrett Drug Arrest"? is ACTUALLY... Bischoff talking about? Jeff Hardy.
Can we say "DDUUHH, DIPSHIT"!
Here's the proof since proof is, a mother fucker and I'm always, the mother fucker who has the proof. You can see this stupidity, right before your very eyes.
There it is, as i said it was titled.. NOW, go to the link where this dumb shit is at, right here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XY7J4Xr70t0&t=316s And listen for yourself.
Yes, people really ARE, this... Fucking stupid.
And like the other times this has happened? You can bet they won't even TRY and correct it. Correcting their fuckups seems to something that's 'beneath them'.
Yes indeedy, pic of Jarrett yet talk about Hardy. it doesn't get much dumber than that.

Only one thing stands between him and his quest for redemption; the greatest World's Champion of the modern era.

Marty Jannetty Is Full Of Shit When He Says His Murder Confession Was Part Of A Wrestling Angle
Since nobody else, no other wrestling writer anywhere will do it.. I'LL DO IT. I call bullshit on Marty's claim this was part of a wrestling angle. I'll go as far as to say, he's a fucking liar..
There, I said it. Meltzer won't, Scherer won't. Keller won't.. WrestlingInc won't. Pro Wrestling.net won't, I can go on and on.. So I'll do it for them.
The obvious questions arise and I bet Marty won't answer them.. He'll just do his favorite dance, the side step, and avoid answering these. But here goes.. Got the balls to answer these questions Marty? We all know, you don't.
What's the name of the company that this was a 'wrestling angle' for? Where was this, ahem, 'match' gonna take place? Who's the name of the booker who thought this was a great idea?
The silence of Marty Jennetty when it comes to answering those questions? Will begin... Now. :)
Here's the story on his lie, er... 'Claim'.
Former WWE Intercontinental Champion Marty Jannetty is backing away from claims that he murdered a man in 1973 at the age of 13.
As we've noted, Jannetty took to Facebook back on August 5 and claimed he murdered a man when he was just 13. The story brought on mainstream media attention for Jannetty, and a preliminary investigation by the Columbus, Georgia Police Department.
For those who missed it, Jannetty posted about how he allegedly murdered a gay man who tried to sexually assault him behind a Victory Lanes bowling alley where they both worked. He said he had been buying marijuana from the man, as other teenagers did in the area. Jannetty also indicated that he got rid of the body by dumping it in the Chattahoochee River. Jannetty later said during an interview with Boston Wrestling that at the time of the incident he was not aware that the man also "lured" children so he could assault them. Jannetty said the man fondled him while they were in his car, and when Jannetty tried to get out of the car, the man got angry. Jannetty said he was pulled out of the car into an alley, where the man pulled his pants down. Jannetty said he was able to grab a brick and hit the man before he could be anally sexually assaulted. Jannetty also told Boston Wrestling that he doesn't think the man deserved to die, but he did deserve "to get his ass beaten." He also said he didn't mean for the man to die. It was also said that Jannetty was badly affected by the trauma of nearly being raped, killing someone, throwing their body in a river, and then "finding out on the news the dude's missing."
In an update, Jannetty took to Facebook today and claimed the murder story was part of a pro wrestling storyline. Jannetty now says he never murdered a man, and that the story was supposed to play out for some indie promotion, in a storyline involving his friend Darren Kelly, who was a corrections officer and part-time wrestler. Jannetty also detailed how there was at least some truth in the original story, in that he purchased marijuana from a gay man who he worked with at the bowling alley.
Here's the link to his post (if he doesn't run like a bitch and delete that too). https://www.facebook.com/1martyjannetty/posts/10220608121527309

WWE RAW Reportedly Falling Apart Without Paul Heyman Leading The RAW Creative Team
Vince is really THIS LAZY now? WWOOW.. Shows how much he really cares about his product, and a good reason for why it sucks.
WWE Chairman & CEO Vince McMahon reportedly didn't even look at the script for tonight's Labor Day edition of RAW "until this morning," according to a new report from Gary Cassidy of Sportskeeda. Ringside News First reported the news. This is apparently why WWE didn't announce any RAW matches until 70 minutes until showtime on the USA Network - Keith Lee vs. Randy Orton, Murphy vs. Dominik Mysterio, and Aleister Black vs. Kevin Owens in RAW Underground.
It was noted that tonight's RAW apparently hadn't been thought about until today, when Vince checked out the show as he got on the WWE corporate jet to fly to the Amway Center in Orlando. It was noted that WWE talents were pitched on Sunday night under the provision of McMahon having not read the show just yet.
There's said to be a creative force driving the writing and booking of SmackDown right now, while there's a lack in the creative department for the red brand. The source noted that the two names spearheading the RAW writing team are "not up to the task of getting the show done in time" right now, or "getting input from talent" in a timely manner.
It was also said that the RAW brand has been falling apart since Paul Heyman was dismissed from his creative job as RAW Executive Director, one year after being appointed to the job. "RAW has really fallen apart without [Paul] Heyman driving the creative," a source reportedly commented to Sportskeeda, which is interesting as Heyman's removal from the role was apparently done in an effort to streamline the creative writing process for TV as both main roster teams were consolidated.

Arron Stevens (Formerly Damian Sandow in WWE) New Booker For Championship Wrestling From Hollywood
Championship Wrestling from Hollywood returned to TV with new, original in-ring content this past weekend, airing nationally on YouToo America (YTA) as well as the Z Channel and other markets via local syndication.
The episodes were taped in an empty arena format and were the first episodes under new booker Aron Stevens aka the former Damian Sandow in WWE.
The episode was more of a traditional, episodic style format with storyline vignettes and outside of the ring interviews conducted by Jon Roberts helping to move storylines forward. Previously, CWH had been a series of bouts and some interviews leading to those matches but episodically, there wasn't as much of a strong narrative from week to week and this reboot of sorts appeared to change that old formula up somewhat.
The main story of the episode ran across the hour, seeing Ray Rosas upset Watts (Erik Watts, who competed on Tough Enough years ago) to win the Hollywood Heritage Championship, hitting the ring after Watts offered an open challenge to anyone in the back, running past Anthony Idol (very underrated 80s style promos) to steal the match. Watts was so stunned by the lost he threw a temper tantrum, throwing things around as he exited the building.
The storyline of the res tof the show was that Rosas' partners in Static (UWN Tag Team Champions Adrian Quest & Uptown Andy Brown) weren't happy that he was thinking of himself over the trio. Rosas is also the Arizona State Champion and won the promotion's Percy Pringle Memorial Cup earlier this year. All of this led to the announced main event, which saw Static in six man tag team match against the team of Clark Connors & Danny Rivera & Will Allday. Allday is a Booker T student from Texas who will be getting featured on the UWN Primetime Live and he scored the pin over Rosas. Connors has been working for New Japan's recent California-based TV. In the end, Static turned on Rosa, beating him down and laying him out over his title belts, leaving the episode on a cliffhanger angle.
United TV Champion Dan Joseph (who had been co-hosting the promotion's Best of episodes of late) defended his title, showing some nice babyface energy in defeating EJ Sparks. Sparks, billed as "Phoenix's favorite son" has been putting in the work during the pandemic and looked to be in tremendous shape. He's certainly on the rise based on matches I've seen of him of late. This bout was the longest thing on the episode and was easily the best match bell to bell on the return episode. They worked a methodical style early, laid out with an old school build before going to submissions and stiff shots. Both looked very good here.
Papo Esco debuted, playing a 80s monster heel, winning a squash over Frankie Frank. Esco billed himself a "King Fat Boy." The Friendship Farm, featuring Jervis Cottonbelly and Sweet Robby Shaw, also won a quick match. Cottonbelly is billed as the World's Sweetest Man.
There was also a segment where CWH owner Dave Marquez got into it with his "son", matchmaker Niko Marquez with Niko pretty much playing the role of a delusional moron with inferences about how people were wearing masks and that it was ridiculous while also complaining about the usage of women in the promotion. This led to Halston Boddy stepping up confront Niko to tease something down the line there. Dave Marquez is tremendous as a ham on camera playing the Lance Russell role of being an interview exasperated at the ridiculous comments.
The UWN Primetime Live PPV debut was pushed heavily on the show.
Scheduled for this weekend's CWH TV:
*CWH Hollywood Heritage Champion Ray Rosas vs. Will Allday, playing off Allday pinning him this week.
*Danny "Limelight" Rivera vs. Boogie Slice with the idea it's a NYC battle of Brooklyn vs. Queens.
*Vipress vs. Cece Channel.
*Clark Connors is in singles action.
*4 Minutes of Heat vs. Friendship Farm.

Take That McMahon, As Paige Says "There's No Chance In Hell" She's Getting Rid Of Her Twitch Channel
During her stream yesterday, Paige spoke about making some changes to her Twitch account as word came down WWE wanting its talent to stop using third party formats, like Twitch and Cameo. Paige has already changed her Twitch channel name from "OfficialPaigeWWE" to "SarayaOfficial" and noted on her stream she'll be changing up her graphics to comply.
"Just so you guys know, this is all going to be changed," Paige said about the WWE related graphics behind her. "It's gonna be changed to Saraya — my real name. We are not going to get rid of our Twitch, we are here to stay. We are not going anywhere. Twitch is our house. I'm the queen of Twitch, so there is no chance in hell we are getting rid of my stream. We're here. We're here to stay. No, guys, I can keep it. It's just Saraya, just have to change it all over to Saraya. ... Thank you guys for understanding. I know it's going to be a little bit weird to get used to Saraya, but it is what it is."
WWE issued a statement about third party bookings.
"Much like Disney and Warner Bros., WWE creates, promotes and invests in its intellectual property, i.e. the stage names of performers like The Fiend Bray Wyatt, Roman Reigns, Big E and Braun Strowman," WWE wrote in a statement. "It is the control and exploitation of these characters that allows WWE to drive revenue, which in turn enables the company to compensate performers at the highest levels in the sports entertainment industry. Notwithstanding the contractual language, it is imperative for the success of our company to protect our greatest assets and establish partnerships with third parties on a companywide basis, rather than at the individual level, which as a result will provide more value for all involved."
It was reported by that WWE Senior Director of Talent Relations Mark Carrano told talent the company owns the rights to their real names. If that were the case, a simple name change wouldn't be enough to allow talent to continue their deals. The report noted it wouldn't make much sense for WWE to own someone's real name, but the wording in their contracts might prevent them "from marketing themselves on platforms the company doesn't want while still under a WWE deal."

(Updated) Get A Load Of This Petty Bullshit As VINCE MCMAHON, WWE GIVE TALENTS 30 DAYS TO END THIRD PARTY DEALS
It would appear that the era of WWE talent using Twitch, Cameo, YouTube, and other third parties to make extra income and build names for themselves outside WWE is coming to an end.
Vince McMahon sent a letter to talents on Thursday, saying they have 30 days to stop engaging with third parties or else face fines, suspensions and even termination at WWE's discretion.
It's unclear what "third parties" means, however. Several wrestlers operate successful Twitch and YouTube channels where they interact with fans while playing video games or other activities.
The letter comes following a Sunday meeting with talent about the "reinvention of the product" where it came up that WWE owns the real names of talent in addition to their character names.
WWE wrestlers are independent contractors, so there is a legal question of what WWE can mandate and what they can/do own.
From the letter: "Some of you are engaged with outside third parties using your name and likeness in ways that are detrimental to our company. It is imperative that these activities be terminated within the next 30 days (by Friday October 2). Continued violations will result in fines, suspension, or termination at WWE's discretion."
McMahon wrote that these actions are necessary as part of WWE's rebuilding process as they "enter the next phase of growth at WWE."
What about talent appearing on shows of other companies they have a working relationship with? THAT, is also a third party booking. But I bet when it comes to that McMahon will conveniently side step that obvious fact.
Paige and Mia Yim have changed their official names on Twitter and Twitch. We are told that other talents will also be changing their user names on those platforms to remove any direct reference to WWE or their WWE character names with the belief that once they do that, they have satisfied WWE's requirements.
One source within the company stated that Twitch and Cameo certainly fall under the auspices of WWE's edict. We are also told that Pro Wrestling Tees would fall under the umbrella of WWE's criteria, so if there are any talents with PWTees stores that you've been waiting to purchase shirts from, now would be the time as those stores may not be there come 10/2. There is no word yet whether talents with YouTube channels would have to shut them down as well.
There is a fear among some talents that should they not shut down Twitch or Cameo, that the company might request a portion of those earnings. PWInsider.com has not been able to confirm whether those fears are valid.
As noted yesterday, a number of talents have launched channels online via Twitch and YouTube to make additional revenue during the pandemic when there are no live events. It should be noted that the same source that confirmed Twitch and Cameo were indeed within the parameter of WWE's edict also pointed out that while talents are not on the road, they are theoretically being paid the same on their downside to perform less and have lowered road expenses since there are so fewer dates for them to work. The same source also pointed out that last year, the company gave raises to a huge swath of talents during the time period AEW was forming and preparing to debut on TNT, which would have offset any losses.
WWE Hall of Famer Mick Foley came out against WWE's edict last night:

It should be noted that the same source that confirmed Twitch and Cameo were indeed within the parameter of WWE's edict also pointed out that while talents are not on the road, they are theoretically being paid the same on their downside to perform less and have lowered road expenses since there are so fewer dates for them to work. The same source also pointed out that last year, the company gave raises to a huge swath of talents during the time period AEW was forming and preparing to debut on TNT, which would have offset any losses.
WWE Hall of Famer Mick Foley came out against WWE's edict last night:
AOP’S AKAM AND REZAR RELEASED BY WWE
AOP, the team of Akam and Rezar, have been released from their WWE contracts.
WWE’s website posted the following message: “WWE has come to terms on the release of Akam and Rezar (AOP). We wish them all the best in their future endeavors.”
The team has not been seen on WWE television since Rezar suffered a bicep injury early this year.
Akam and Rezar were put together as a team on NXT starting in 2016 under the name The Authors of Pain, managed by Paul Ellering. They won the 2016 Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic, defeating TM-61 in the finals. They also won the NXT Tag Team titles on January 28, 2017 at TakeOver: San Antonio, defeating DIY.
The Authors of Pain made their debut on Raw on April 9, 2018, defeating Heath Slater and Rhyno. They immediately dropped Ellering as their manager. A number of changes took place in the following months, including shortening their name to AOP and adopting Drave Maverick as their manager. They won the Raw Tag Team titles on November 5, 2018, defeating Seth Rollins in a handicap match after Rollins' tag team partner Dean Ambrose turned on him. They would lose the titles a month later to the team of Chad Gable and Bobby Roode.
In January 2019, Akam underwent knee surgery, keeping the team dormant for most of the year. Upon their return in November, Maverick was dropped as their manager and the team formed an alliance with Seth Rollins. That was dropped when Rezar suffered the bicep injury.

Cease & Desist Order To Former WWE Star Paul Roma's Wrestling School Rescinded
the Paradise Pro Wrestling school and promotion was recently hit with a cease & desist letter from the city of East Haven, Connecticut, forcing them to close. The school is owned by former WWE and WCW star Paul Roma, and former WWE enhancement talent Mario Mancini.
PAPW, which bills itself as family-friendly entertainment with a mix of old school wrestling & modern professional wrestling, was issued the C&D in late August, ordering them to shut down because their school was deemed a violation of local zoning laws, which list "wrestling studios" as Adult Oriented Businesses. The city order classifies Adult Oriented Businesses as adult book stores, adult motion picture theaters, adult mini-motion picture theaters, adult video sales and/or rentals, adult cabarets, adult novelty businesses, and adult personal service business and/or establishment, which was bold in the C&D that the promotion received, indicating that this is what they are accusing PAPW of being.
The city classified PAPW of being a "wrestling studios" business, as mentioned in the order. They ordered PAPW to immediately cease & desist all wrestling activity at the location, noting that failure to comply could result in fines and/or criminal charges. The promotion did have 30 days to appeal from the date of the order.
In an update, the C&D has been officially rescinded, and the promotion has been given permission to resume training and events.
Mancini posted a Facebook video explaining the situation and thanking everyone for their support, as seen below. Mancini also thanked local officials for stepping in to help with the situation.
Mancini thanked longtime East Haven Mayor Joseph Maturo Jr. for calling him this week and expeditiously taking care of the issue. He noted that PAPW has been asked to stay in East Haven, and have been given permission to operate business as usual. It was also noted that the city is changing the laws on the code due to what happened with PAPW. City officials are said to be very grateful for everything PAPW has done for East Haven, especially the PAPW charity events that Mancini's brother, "Big" Steve Tracy, has organized for local people and organizations in need.
This was not mentioned in Mancini's video but PWInsider reports that it's believed the original C&D may have come from someone who actually misunderstood what pro wrestling was. As noted, the law is being changed to prevent this from happening in the future.
Mancini noted that in 30 days or so he will be announcing a special PAPW "Thank You" show for East Haven, which will include a low price ticket that comes with other perks.
