"Social Media Manager" At WrestlingInc Gets "Checked"

 

This happened because Mr. "Social Media Manager" At WrestlingInc came to me on FB messenger. I didn't go to him, HE.. Came to me. So when he chose to come to me, he chose to get what he gets. The fact he tried to spin off what I did on WrestlingInc's FB page as bad, when THEY at WrestlingInc do THE VERY SAME THING on many of their stories, shows what a dimwit and a dumb ass this "Social Media Manager" really is. 

Let me explain what lead up to this debacle by a staff member of WrestlingInc.

I did this story up on Wild Bill Irwin being drunk on a recent interview. Here's a shot of the headline.

The link to that very story is right here. https://billsbrandnewblog.blogspot.com/2021/06/wild-bill-irwin-drunk-on-recent.html

Now Dave Meltzer didn't write the story, Scherer and Johnson at PWInsider didn't write it.. Wade Keller? Nope, and certainly not any member of WrestlingInc either. I did it myself. I supplied the proof where you could see it happening, and where you can see the person who interviewed the drunken Irwin react to it, There's no dispute or argument that it didn't happen. The video shows it completely so there's no way it can be disputed in any way.

So after I posted the story I do what I always do after I do a story. I plug it around FB in different groups I'm part of, and a few different pages. Even post it in a few places on YouTube as well. I Post a link and people can go to it. I do it and a few people i know do iot for me in groups and on pages they frequent. Pretty simple and always effective.

And to show you just how effective it is. Here's the actual number of people who've come to my site today. This was taken 30 seconds ago at 11:45 PM.

So knowing my way has been effective I did what I usually did with the Irwin story, and knowing that no other wrestling 'writer' will have the guts to do the story themsdelves. I went ahead an plugged it knowing I had something over all the other wrestling news sites. 

Then.. Comes Mr. "Social Media Manager" for WrestlingInc.

I calmly replied to what he said, as you'll see right here. 

And before anyone at WrestlingInc opr anyone else tries to call bullshit? I have the proof that WrestlingInc DID credit me with a story they posted on their site. Staff member named Joshua Gagnon did it on a story I posted, where? On the WrestlingInc FB page. HHMMMMM. From November of last year here's the proof. 

Proof is, a mother fucker you know. :)

So knowing from that fact I shared that Mr. "Social Media Manager" was lying and full of shit. I called him out on that in my reply. Then added how WrestlingInc "Piggybacks" off of stories PWInsider, Meltzer and others do, and that that proof is all over the very site that he's a "social Media Manager" of. 

I mean you see it every day and look how easy it is to prove this fact. 

Wrestlevotes, PWInsider AND Dave Meltzer staff members of WrestlingInc Piggybacked their stories from.

Isn't it nice that Craig from WrestlingInc can live in a glass house and still throw stones? :)

Here's the rest of the short convo I had with Craig, Mr. "Social Media Manager" as i explained to him that not allowing me to plug my site isn't gonna stop others from doing it. He's fighting a losing battle as I know at least twenty people who'll plug stuff for me. So removing me will just have twenty more people doing it there if I ask them to. His own actions may result in worse over just continuing to allow me to do what I've been doing there for over two years. 

Of course, he obviously doesn't think about things like that. Thinking of a bigger picture must be a challenge for him.

Take note that ever since Craig saw my reply earlier this evening? he hasn't had shit, to say. 

The truth does, have a way of hurting. :) 

This isn't the first time WrestlingInc got scared when it came to me showing them a story I've done. I find the logic and mentality they have very amusing. THEY, can piggyback off of other writer's stories but if someone tries to do it with them.. THEY, get all pissy and bitchy about it. 

Interesting mentality they have, eh?

But because it isn't a story that Meltzer or the others did, it's something original or a topic that's hard to swallow but needs to be told anyway.. I seem to be the only one who has the balls to tell it. Which is why I'm glad I have my own platform,. I don't have to answer to anybody and I can do the stories the way they're meant to be told. And not white washed or 'softened down' so the oversensitive don't get offended. I say it the way it should be said and it's not my fault all the other wrestling writers don't have, them kind of balls.

Here's another example of WrestlingInc's strange logic and mentality. They liked to post stories of when a wrestler calls out a fan. BUT, when a fan calls out a wrestler and that wrestler gets "checked"? Funny how all the wrestling writers including WrestlingInc run away from that, with a quickness. 

OOHH wait.. It's okay for a wrestler to put a fan in their place but it's a cardinal sin if a fan puts a wrestler in their place? Is that the mentality here? LOL. Pretty stupid logic if you ask me. 

Here's proof of that very thing right here.

The link to that is here. https://billsbrandnewblog.blogspot.com/2019/02/wrestlinginc-shows-what-hypocrites-they.html

I guess it's become that time where I have to put WrestlingInc in "check" again. I admit it's been awhile and you'd think that when you have an original story with all the facts and proof there for them to see,  They'd want to jump on it, especially when all the inisputable proof is right before, their very eyes. 

Nope.. 

But that's okay. At least we now know that the "Social Media Manager" at WrestlingInc is full of shit and I proved it. You can go ahead and thank me for that. 

It's funny, you'd think a story like THIS, would be an important for WrestlingInc to do.

Nope, not important at all, especially when somehow, in the bizarro world that is WrestlingInc, THIS, to them seems to be a 'more important' story.

You really, can't... Make this shit up, LOL. 

UPDATE 1-29-2022 By Donnie Henderson

If you notice on their site? They STILL piggyback off of Meltzer and PWInsider. So everything that was said in this story STILL rings true. BOOM. 

Here's the latest proof.

Isn't it nice that we here at WP&P don't have to do, on a daily basis what WrestlingInc seems to have no choice but, to do every, single day? (Smiles)

Someday they might get to a point to won't have to rely on other sites to get their ahem, 'news'. 

Someday obviously won't be today (smiles again).

I Wonder How Long THIS, Will Last As The NWA Signs Kylie Rae

 

First she says she's no longer a pro wrestler, and NOW, just like Jazz had announced her "retirement" from wrestling only to pop up in Impact Wrestling two weeks later.. We have THIS. (Rolls eyes)

During the currently ongoing NWA When Our Shadows Falls PPV, announcer Joe Galli stated that Kylie Rae has signed with the National Wrestling Alliance.

That would mean Rae will be consistently wrestling going forward.  Rae had stated via her Patreon last year that she was no longer a professional wrestler and would be taking a break from social media after missing the Impact Wrestling Bound for Glory PPV in October 2020. 

Rae had remained under contract to Impact Wrestling, but the NWA and Impact worked out an agreement over the last several weeks, allowing Rae to move on and sign with the NWA.  We are told that the two sides came to terms within the last 4-5 days.

Rae had been scheduled to face Impact Wrestling Knockouts Champion Deonna Purrazzo at the aforementioned Bound for Glory PPV.  She was in Nashville for the PPV but left Nashville the day of the PPV to return home with Impact not aware until they were on the air for the PPV broadcast.  Rae later resurfaced on Cameo and began taking independent bookings in the Chicago area.  She remained signed to the promotion but was not going to be used going forward as the promotion was respecting that she was dealing with personal issues.

Prior to her Impact run, Rae had been signed with All Elite Wrestling but departed that promotion early in its existence as well.

Wild Bill Irwin Drunk On Recent Interview (Total Train Wreck And Reminder Why Irwin Shouldn't Do Interviews Anymore)

 

This was fucking atrocious. Worse than when Sandman does drunken shoot interviews.

If you know you're going to be doing an interview where hundreds, if not THOUSANDS of people are gonna see it, why be such a dumb fuck and get drunk or be drunk on it? 

Only, a fucking idiot would do something like this and guess what, Bill Irwin proved he is, a fucking idiot.

Here's a link where Hannibal explains the situation. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xoP1ZbJ870w

And here's, the drunken interview in its entirety. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a5IHsVBYwDk

Thanks Bill Irwin for being such a fucking dumb ass. FULLY, appreciate it. :)

How Many "Marks" In A Week Had To be Put In 'Check' By Me? Quite A Few (Updated 6-6-21 11:45 PM)

 

They seem to just line up in anticipation of getting verbally smacked and embarrassed. Not my fault there's so many dumb "Marks" out there now, they just keep coming out of the woodwork like cockroaches. So as long as they keep coming and trying to brace me? I'll keep putting them in their place. 

I just wish one of them, would actually make it a challenge, but as you'll see. None of them ever can. 

Here's one dummy who tried to brace me on something I posted from Cornette's podcast. As you see it takes absolutely no effort whatsoever, to put these guys in their place.

Our next set of ass clowns comes from when I posted my story on Game Changer Wrestling getting sued. I posted it, where? Right on GCW's FB page. "Marks" always like to hide behind "Why don't you post that where the people you write about can see it"? 

I do, every time but the "Marks" have to always be educated on that fact. And when they are, they realize what fucking idiots they made themselves look like.  

So here's the next set that got set on their way after they had to be checked with ease by me.

Why, is it always, this easy? Why, can't they ever be a challenge? I guess because none of them are ever good enough. :)

That set with GCW was yesterday.. TODAY, we have this set of "Geniuses" that took offense to the story I wrote on Cody Rhodes (which all was factual by the way and the AEW "Marks" And Fanboys have a problem when it comes to facts and truth. 

I also love how AEW "Marks" always ASSume I'm a WWE fan when I haven't watched WWE programming on a steady basis in over eight years. Every time I do watch it? They remind me why I don't watch it. 

The stupidity of today's "Marks" knows no bounds, as well as their true lack of real knowledge and facts. As you'll see, "Kenny" tries everything to show he's right when reality is Facts keep proving him wrong and he just can't accept it. Or doesn't want to. 

You can choose which one it is. 

As you saw, easy peasy to 'check' these dumb shits. 

Some day, the "Marks" will become a challenge. Some day..

It obviously, won't be today, LMAO!

And so the "Marks" can't hide behind their usual typical and predictable reply off "Nobody goes to your site". I'll go ahead and take that argument away from them too. 

This was taken 30 seconds ago on how many people are currently, visiting my site.

Proof is always a mother fucker so you can thank me for being the mother fucker who has proof. :) 

UPDATE!!!!

What happens when a dumb "mark" tries to brace me, and then realize he lost with flying colors?

They snitch, that's what they do and here's the proof.

All the other comments were left, just THAT ONE you saw above was removed. The only way that could've happened is if someone snitched me off to FB.

Since you see the name tagged on  the post that was removed? It's pretty obvious who did the snitching. Only bitches have snitch.

But no matter what, all the snitching in the world won't cover the fact he braced me, and got 'checked' as a resuilt of it. And this story won't be going away either.

So thanks for snitching "Kennyboy", it just gave me a chance to update this and plug it some more. 

How dumb do you feel now, eh? Real dumb, I'm sure. :) 

UPDATE!! 6-6-21 11:45 PM

Kenny can't stop snitching, AAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Nothing like being busted oput in public so everyone knows, you're a snitch, LMAO!

Busted again "Kenny", Busted again. :)

Wrestling Stars In Japan Who Have Covid, And Other Japanese Wrestling Notes

 

Pro Wrestling ZERO1’s Genta Hiriki and Junya Matsunaga have tested positive for COVID-19.

As a result, Chris Vice, Hartley Jackson, Shoki Kitamura and Takumi Baba are among those who are now forced to undergo a two-week quarantine due to being in close contact with Hiriki and Matsunaga.

All six wrestlers will miss ZERO1’s show on June 11 in Shin-Kiba 1st Ring, as well as Takafumi. Needless to say, missing seven wrestlers will cause significant changes to the card.

Only two matches have been announced for the show. Takafumi was scheduled to team with Ayato Yoshida and Shigehiro Irie against Fuminori Abe, Masato Tanaka and Shinjiro Otani. Vice was scheduled to team with Takuya Sugawara against Jackson and Tsugutaka Sato. Both matches will change.

The news should not affect the upcoming Fire Festival tournament as of right now. Neither Hiriki or Matsunaga are in the tournament and the first show is not until July 2.

Jackson confirmed he has been testing negative but will miss upcoming shows due to quarantine on Twitter.

Interesting to see how Onita will "blow up" his jacket.

Cody Rhodes Calls Andrade El Idolo Joining AEW A “Big Signing By Tony” (LMAO! Yeah Right, No It's Not)

 

Andrade El Idolo made his AEW debut on last night’s episode of Dynamite. This afternoon a fan asked Cody Rhodes how he felt about the former WWE Superstar joining AEW.

The former TNT Champion replied that he was excited and that it was a “big signing by Tony Khan.”.

AAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

Who the fuck is he trying to convince with that statement? Idolo isn't that 'big' of a signing. Sorry to spill the truth Cody but, facts are indeed, facts.

If he's such a "BIG signing" what does that make the signings of Sting, Big Show, Christian and Mark Henry? 

It's not like AEW has been doing much with THEM 'big signings", LOL.

All Idolo's signing is, is just another WWE cast off who's now going to be managed by ANOTHER

Funny how I've said that statement in a number of places, especially on AEW's FB pages and not ONE WWE cast off. Vicky Guerrero.

Funny how I've said that statement in a number of places, especially on AEW's FB pages and not ONE "AEW Mark" could argue that fact. Not, one.. HHHMMM.

Remember when people in AEW claimed and SWORE they were going to be the, ahem.. "Cough Cough" Alternative to WWE? You don't remember? Here, I'll show you.

Straight from Mr. AEW EVP Cody Rhodes's mouth.

Yeah I bet all the "Marks" forgot about that.

OH, but what about THIS, Cody said AEW "Won't have many former WWE stars".

You forget he said it? Well here's proof since proof is a mother fucker and we all know I'm a mother fucker who'll always have the proof. 

Sting, Vickey Guerrero, Dustin Runnels, Taz, Jim Ross, Christian, Paul Wright and now Andrade El Idolo.. HMM seems like there's "many many" former WWE stars employed by AEW. 

Don't you just love how people always say one thing, yet do another, and don't think that shit will come back to slap them in the face?

At least I have the balls to bring all this up. The Mike Johnson's, the Dave Scherer's, The Wade Keller's won't do it. And Dave Meltzer sure isn't gonna do it since he's trying to kiss every ass in AEW he can. SO, it'll always be up to me to bring up what the other 'big time' wrestling writers don't have the balls to bring up. And you can thank me for being the only one, who has the balls to do it.

In the end Cody is of course wrong with his ASSumption, that Idolo is a 'big signing' for Tony "The Money Mark" Khan. It's just another guy that WWE let go that AEW and won't do much with. 

Instead of trying to get a 'buzz' by signing WWE's ex-employees, why not get a 'buzz' by having a better show? Instilling some logic to your storylines, Have some actual 'selling' of moves in the matches and let someone who has ACTUAL BOOKING EXPERIENCE, book and do the shows? HHHEEYY, now that'd be a hell of a concept, eh?

Of course it's a concept all in AEW will continue to ignore because according to them, THEY.. "Know what they're doing".

Just ask them, and they'll sure tell you, LMAO!

Dave Meltzer "Almost" Posted A Link Correctly (Close But No Cigar So I'll Once Again Do it For Him)

 

There's been a LONG pattern of Dave Meltzer not having the ability to post a link right on his Wrestling Observer web page. And I've got just about every fuck up he's done when it comes to that. And every time he sees one of these stories I do he quickly takes a few days off hoping the embarrassment of that goes away. He has someone else update the site for acouple days, EVERY TIME he gets caught not having the simple ability, to post a link correctly.

And in case any of you "Meltzer Marks" want to try and call bullshit? Here's some proof because, as I always say.. Proof IS, a mother fucker, and I'll always be the mother fucker who has proof. :)  

Here's this one.  https://billsbrandnewblog.blogspot.com/2019/10/since-dave-meltzer-still-cant-post-link.html

Then there's this one..  https://billsbrandnewblog.blogspot.com/2019/08/will-someone-please-show-dave-meltzer.html

Oh wait, there's more.. There's this one..  https://billsbrandnewblog.blogspot.com/2018/11/meltzer-posts-link-to-video-thats.html

And yet another one..  https://billsbrandnewblog.blogspot.com/2017/12/since-meltzer-cant-post-link-right-ill.html

Want some more proof that Dave's a fuck up when it comes to posting links, and why someone really should, do it for him?

Here you go, here's a few more for you. :) Glad I could help with the proof for you. 

https://billsbrandnewblog.blogspot.com/2019/03/once-again-meltzer-cant-post-link.html

https://billsbrandnewblog.blogspot.com/2017/12/since-meltzer-again-has-no-clue-on-how.html

Oh look! Here's YET.. Another one.

https://billsbrandnewblog.blogspot.com/2019/03/second-time-in-week-dave-meltzer-cant.html

So as you can see Meltzer has proven himself to be a complete idiot when it comes to posting links. And in ALL of these links? NOT ONCE did he actually go back and have it corrected. Nor did he ever admit he made a mistake in posting the wrong link.

I guess in Meltzer's world correcting himself on his own mistakes is something that's "beneath him". 

Oh Wait, there's this one as well. Can't forget this one you know. :) 

https://billsbrandnewblog.blogspot.com/2019/07/since-dave-meltzer-cant-tell-you-where.html

Now before I show you the latest screw up by Meltzer. I know one of you "Meltzer Marks" are gonna say "Why don't you show this to Meltzer yourself if you're so brave"? 

Well? I HAVE, and like he does to everyone else that punks him  or makes him look like as dipshit, he ran from me and hid behind a block. Because facts and truth put him in his place, where he belongs.. And, it didn't take very long for me to do it either, as you're gonna see. Anyone who has to run and hide behind a block after getting chumped in public is pretty much, a little bitch. Meltzer proved he is indeed that. 

One little statement in response to what he said to me and, WHAT did he do exactly 90 seconds after I checked him with my reply?

This. Proving he knew he got owned and 'checked'. 

So after all that, do you thiunk he'd FINALLY be able to post a link correctly?

You know the answer, the answer is... No. 

On his "daily update" for today he posted this about a story on Konnan.

BUT, what happens when you click on the link Meltzer put up?

This..

He almost got it right. Almost, LMAO!

THIS, is what it should've brought you to

So since Dave Meltzer continues to be a total fuck up when it comes to posting links correctly, it'll have to be up to me once again, to do what he just can't do, no matter what. So here's the correct link to the story. 

https://www.si.com/wrestling/2021/06/02/konnan-lucha-libre-aaa-nft-release

Make sure you tell Meltzer I helped him out yet again, also say I said "You're welcome, dumb ass"

GAME CHANGER WRESTLING IS GETTING SUED BY INDEPENDENTWRESTLING.TV

 Pennsylvania-based independent wrestling streaming service IndependentWrestling.TV filed a breach of contract lawsuit in the State of New Jersey today against Game Changer Wrestling, alleging that GCW broke an agreement for IWTV to carry their events as part of IWTV's streaming service.  

The Times-Leader in Pennsylvania reported that the lawsuit alleges the two sides entered into an agreement in March of 2020 but by December, GCW informed IWTV they would be "breaching" the deal and have since held 36 PPV events, a "violation of the signed agreement" of the two sides.  The lawsuit alleges GCW has damaged IWTV "in excess of $500,000."

IWTV issued the following statement on their website:

PUBLIC STATEMENT ON IWTV/GCW LEGAL MATTER

JUNE 4TH, 2021

On December 26, 2020, Game Changer Wrestling (GCW) announced via social media that they unilaterally wished to be released from their distribution agreement with IndependentWrestling.TV (IWTV).

This agreement was signed in March 2020 and has been honored since then by IWTV. Over the past several months, IWTV has made multiple attempts to address GCW’s contractual concerns, including efforts to renegotiate and come to terms on a new agreement.

IWTV’s goal has always been to resolve this issue outside of the courts. While this is still our preference, unfortunately at this time we feel we have no option but to pursue legal action against GCW.

***

GCW has not yet commented on the matter.  They have several shows slated for this weekend in New Jersey which will streaming on FITE.TV.

Tom Latimer On His WWE Release, Battle With Alcoholism

 

NWA star Tom Latimer sat down with the This Is Pro Wrestling podcast in advance of NWA’s When Our Shadows Fall PPV this Sunday. Latimer delved in depth into his struggles with alcoholism, in particular not realizing he had a problem at first.

“I had a problem and I have a problem,” Latimer said. “There’s a lot of people that can drink and they never get into trouble, nothing bad happens to them, they still make rational decisions. Those are people that can sensibly drink and I’m not one of those people. It took me a long time to realize I was an alcoholic. I always thought when I was growing up, an alcoholic was a person that was homeless, passed out on a park bench, or begging for change for alcohol. I didn’t realize it’s a broad spectrum.”

Latimer, who wrestled as Kenneth Cameron, also detailed his release from the promotion in 2012 following a confrontation with a police officer. Even then, he was ready to admit he had an issue.

“When I got fired from WWE for a drinking related thing, for touching a cop, for one I was arrogant and I was in a good position,” Latimer said. “I thought ‘oh, I’ll be fine.” Because I’d already been arrested before that, when I’d first signed with WWE, for a DUI. So they already knew I had a drinking problem. I was oblivious to it, because I wasn’t drinking every day, I was drinking occasionally. But when I’d drink that one time, I’d end up in trouble. So when they released me, they said ‘go seek some help. Ya know, you’ve probably got a problem.’  I was still like ‘nah, I don’t have a problem.’ And that’s how I still carried on for 10 years.”

Latimer would eventually become sober. Looking back on it now, while he’s grateful for what he has now, he wonders why he took so long to get sober.

"Don’t get me wrong, I’m very grateful now,” Latimer said. “I’m in a good position, I’ve got a great relationship, I can run a household. I sort of just grew up. But I look back at those ten years and always ask myself ‘why did it take you TEN YEARS?’ There were so many chances, so many opportunities. I just honestly thought I was fine, but I was against the world. I was angry. Drinking also helped me to never deal with any of my feelings and it helped me to just not care. Cause when I did quit, and I tried to quit for several years, but finally with the help of Kailey, it was time, even though there were a million events that should have been the time. It’s dealing with the emotions, that’s the hard part. When I finally gave it up, there was no crutch. If I got angry, or something bad happened… you have to deal with everything.”

“When you’ve not dealt with ten years of your emotions and your behavior, what you’ve done to people, the friends you lost, the marriages that have gone away and the people that you’ve hurt, it’s a lot to deal with. But again, it’s the best thing I ever did and of course I always have to be careful. Always. But I never thought I would be a person who could say they’re sober. I never thought it was possible. This is a scary statement to say, but I will never and can never drink again. Because, whatever takes over my body. Whatever possesses Thomas Latimer is not me, and there is no limit to what can happen when I’ve had drink. I could wake up in jail on a murder charge.  I’m not willing to take that risk anymore. But that is how much it changes me as a human being.”

Latimer then delved back into how he didn’t understand how much trouble he was getting himself into. He revealed he would drink and drive, find himself sobbing while drinking alone in hotel rooms and finally having a wake up call when he saw how his behavior affected others.

“If no one gets anything else from this interview, maybe someone will learn that it’s okay to have a drinking problem, it’s normal and millions of people go through it ,” Latimer said. “I was someone who never in a million years thought I could be sober. And I’m sober.  This will sound terrible, but I would drink and drive every day. I’d be wrestling and promoters would give me drink because they were nervous and thought I would die if I didn’t have enough.

“I look back and it’s just madness. How did I never get pulled over? I remember times drinking a lone in hotel rooms sobbing and I’m thinking ‘who IS this person?” So from me, I know what it’s like and it CAN be done. If you are struggling with dependency, it can be done. I’m not someone that should’ve recovered. Once it starts to affect other people though, it’s time to say enough’s enough. If you’re just hurting yourself, fine, but if there’re casualties because of your behavior, it’s time.”

Latimer’s past actions have led to him being a polarizing presence in the wrestling industry, often receiving criticism on Twitter. These days he avoids social media as best as he can.

“Yeah, I avoid it like the plague,” Latimer said. “If anyone listening to this follows me on Twitter, I’m sorry that I don’t tweet.  I retweet, but I don’t put my opinion or my feelings out there. Before, when I was drunk, I didn’t care. Give me all of your hate. Whereas now, I sound like a bit of a wuss, but I get one snarky comment, it messes up my whole day. It crushes me. And I know everyone goes through this. There are people that are way more notable than me and who am I to complain?

“But Twitter, I avoid. Kailey got rid of hers for her mental health and she’s loving life without it. A lot of people see it as a negative, but after everything that’s happened, I sort of closed off a little bit. I try and not see any negativity and after everything that’s happened to me the last ten years it’s been tough, obviously. I’ve been so closed off, I’m happy we get to talk. It’s sort of helping me get over that. I sort of shut down and shut off just to protect my own mental health, but I think now is a good time to talk about it. Sometimes I think it’s nobody’s business and why should I put any of this out there? But if it helps someone else, so be it.”

As to why Latimer is talking about his issues now, he says its because he wants people to know he is not the same man he was at 24. Even if it is scary for him to admit his issues.

“I have to sound pretty dumb, but I wish I could be me now when I was 24,” Latimer said. “I burnt every bridge, walked away from every opportunity, upset a lot of people, I don’t know. I think a bit of it is I want people to know me a bit more. I think in my mind I always had this illusion of say, Undertaker. He’s supposed to be this dead man. You’re not supposed to be able to tweet him. He’s unattainable and he’s untouchable… time’s have changed. I thought I wanted to be New Jack or Sabu. I want people to know that I’ve changed. But also it’s scary to admit all of that and let people in. I’ve been too guarded from what people are going to say or what people are going to think. But I think it’s time to talk.”

Nick Aldis Puts Bruce Prichard In His Place

 

On a recent episode of WCW legend Konnan’s Keepin’ It 100 podcast, NWA Worlds Heavyweight Champion was on where the topic of Bruce Prichard came up. Aldis has responded to Prichard’s comments about him on a few occasions, and he did so again explaining the heat between the two.

“He said I was ‘playing the part of a wrestler and not really owning it.’ This is the part that is f**ked about that, so they’re talking about something from some Impact show, and it was when I worked with Alberto [El Patron],” Aldis recalled. I had actually left the company at that point. I just came back in to work with Alberto because I thought that was interesting to me, so I did it. Bruce says, ‘He doesn’t have the IT factor.’ Look, if he had just been talking about Magnus, the f**king Jo-Jo character from TNA when I was in my early-to-mid 20s, he probably would have been right.

“Conrad [Thompson] then says, ‘Well, what about what he’s been doing with the NWA?’ He’s like, ‘He’s playing the role of a wrestler.’ If that was the TNA stuff, I would have been cool, but when he based it off, a, he hadn’t watched any of it and b, he was just trying to f**king bury me. He went out of his way to take food off my table and f**k up my value in the market, and I don’t take kindly to that.”

Aldis recalled his contract negotiations in TNA when Prichard was head of Talent Relations at the time.

“We had heat in TNA because my contract came up, and he tried to offer me a new deal,” Aldis said. “Basically, in TNA, anyone who hadn’t worked for WWE, Bruce basically jobbed them out and treated them like a jabroni. I’m starting to get a little bit of a push, and he’s trying to offer me a contract, but he tries to offer me the same money for three years.

“I was 25 at the time, and I said, ‘You’re trying to tell me, when I’m 28, you think I’m going to be worth the same amount of money I’m worth now? So why the f**k would I be here? Why would I stay if you don’t think I’m going to increase my value in three years?’ And he’s like, ‘Well, it was a good offer.’ So I did what anyone would do, I went straight to Dixie [Carter]. I just went, ‘If you think I’m going to be worth the same amount of money three years from now than I am today, then there’s no point in me being here. I might as well take my chances to go get signed by WWE or go somewhere else.’ She was like, ‘Whoa, wait, what are you talking about?’ Because this was always the problem there, guys would just go rogue and they would just do stuff without running it by her.”

Aldis continued noting the dynamic between Dixie Carter and other TNA executives. He recalled Prichard’s response to him going to Carter, and he revealed what happened after his talk with Carter.

“Everyone can say what they want about Dixie, but so many guys who worked in TNA in a management capacity were so unprofessional because they would do whatever they wanted, and when they got called out for it, they would blame Dixie. But half the time, Dixie wouldn’t even know because they just did it off their own back, which is f**ked,” Aldis explained. “I’m not gonna sit here and say Dixie was a genius, obviously, but I just called her directly because I had already worked for her for three years at that point.

“And I said, ‘If you think I’m going to be worth the same amount of money in three years than I am today, then there’s no point in me being here.’ She just went, ‘What are you talking about?’ I said, ‘Bruce just offered me this contract. It’s the same money for three years,’ and she was just like, ‘Wait, whoa, whoa.’ So, in pretty short order, Dixie’s attorney, Guy Blake, took on my contract negotiations, just took it out of Bruce’s hands, and Scott D’Amore did my contract. He was my agent at the time.

“So Bruce got completely removed from the equation, and Bruce calls me up and is like, ‘Who do you think you are doing this and doing that? You’re just going running to mommy like a little b**ch,’ and I was just like, ‘Are you saying because the president of the company is a woman and that I went over to the president of the company that I’m running to mommy?’ I don’t think that plays very well in 2021. Those were his exact words.

“This is the same guy who on his podcast will be like, ‘The top guys would go straight to Vince [McMahon]. That’s what the top guys should do. They should go straight to Vince.’ I went straight to Dixie but suddenly it’s running to mommy, and I was just like, ‘F**k this guy.’ My whole contract negotiation got taken out of his hands so much so that even when we were down to the wire and finalizing it, he tried to come and join the conversation again, and Dixie was like, ‘It’s fine Bruce. You can go.’ Of course he’s going to hold a grudge on that forever.”

Sami Callihan & Moose Have A Pretty Lame Main Event! | IMPACT! Highlights June 3, 2021

 

Every week I find it so so SSOO comical that people actually think,. Sami Callihan is supposed to be this "big convincing monster" when really? he isn't. It's the same thing with people trying to take Eddie Edwards seriously, and trust me, not many people take Edwards seriously either. Callihan looks like a guy trying to 'play' wrestler and his size isn't convincing at all, especially when paired in a match against Moose?

Yeah, no.

Yet THIS is the 'best' the 'crack creative team' at Impact can come up with for a main event. 

If this was a 'real' fight? Sami would be punked out by Moose, easily. And every fan in the world knows it. Instead, we have to suffer thru "Super Sami" yet again.

Here's an act of obvious stupidity. Sami moves out of the way of Moose charging at him, but he moves too soon and even though Moose sees this, he STILL, takes a step forward and catapults himself into the guard rail. (shakes head)  But Sami has to get that put the hand thru the guard rail then kick it spot in.

That "I got to get my shit in" logic once again that current wrestlers use as their mentality.

Moose hits the finisher and of course, what do we get? "Super Sami" kicks out at the very last second again (yawns)

Let me reiterate.. NOBODY, on God's green earth will ever be convinced that Sami Callihan can hang in any kind of 'fight' against a guy the size of Moose. The fact that Impact bookers booked this match this way shows that someone at Impact has a sense of humor. Trying to convince me of that with this match is actually comical.

Thankfully this clusterfuck ended with the Good Brothers doing a run in. 

That was the good part, the bad part? Kenny Omega came into the ring as well. 

I love the fact that the camera zoomed in on Omega talking at that camera, and you couldn't hear a word he said, LMAO!

Not hearing a word Omega said was probably the best thing Impact has done when it comes to omega, LOL!

So NOW, they want to tease a three way match with Omega vs Moose Vs Sami Callihan?

Yeah, that's JUST the 'blockbuster' match EEVVEERRYYOONNEE wants to see, NOT!

Satoshi Kojima's IN-RING DEBUT! (Whirls Finger And Says "Whoopie") | IMPACT! Highlights June 3, 2021

 

Why is he pointing around the arena? THERE'S NO FANS THERE, JACK ASS! Pointing at piped in fan noise, LMAO!

Are the heels gonna start yelling at the piped in fan noise to like they do when fans are there yelling at them? We're not that far off at this rate.

I knows they tried to hypwe this debut like it's an 'earth shattering' event. But the truth is, most fans? have no fucking idea who Satoshi Kojima is. he doesn't carry the 'name value' that a Masa Chono, Jushin Liger or Great Muta do. he may be a multiple time IWGP champion, but here in America? most fans are gonna go "eeehhh, so what" and shrug their shoulders.

Truth hurts, appreciate the fact I tell the truth :)

So since this supposed to some sort of 'super spectacular' the best they can do for a debut opponent is...... Wait for it... Wait for it.... Deaner?

AAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

Guess the "B" team member of Violent By Design is better than just about anyone else Impact has on the roster, eh? 

Kojima chopping Deaner like, fifty times in the corner looked pretty lame when he started the rapid fire chops. They actually looked phony as fuck. Guess not everyone has a convincing Wahoo McDaniel or Walter chop in them so this is the 'best' they can do.

Of course if this match happened in Japan, the chops probably would've been more stiffer as the style there demands it. But this is "Impact" so it is, what it is I guess.

Then of course he looks out at the nonexistent fans and yells, LOL!

Kojima wins with a clothesline? WWHHAATT? A clothesline is NOW a finishing maneuver? But when Jake something, or  who's way bigger than Kojima does it, anyone else in Impact does it isn't? 

Yep, there's that lack of logic Impact is known for. Maybe some day if Impact ever gets bookers who have ACTUAL booking experience on their on their payroll, logic might actually make a come back. 

Some day though, won't be today.

Grace & Ellering Get Their Rematch! (And it Was The Best Thing On The WHOLE SHOW, Imagine That)| IMPACT! Highlights June 3, 2021

 

Finally, finally finally FINALLY! Something in Impact actually worth watching. 

I watched how this whole feud had started and developed and man, THIS was the best thing on the whole damn show, period. 

This was solid from start to finish, proper 'selling' by all four women (yoo hoo, male wrestlers in Impact, since you either can't 'sell', don't know HOW to 'sell' or just don't WANT to 'sell'. You should watch this and take notes. "Selling" CAN be your friend). And if you watched this feud from the beginning (except for the ten women debacle they had recently) this has all the ingredients of why a fan should invest their time into. 

Pretty sad when the women upstage the men so fucking easily. 

I'd like to see where the feud goes from here, but knowing how Impact books and operates, when something like this WORKS? They quickly pull the plug on it. It's been an M.O. of Impact for years. 

W. Morrissey MUGS Rich Swann! (Someone Needs No Create Better Titles For These Clips) | IMPACT! Highlights June 3, 2021

 

So.. Swann comes down the isle to piped in fans, (Where did all the 'fans' from the TJP/ Alexander match go? Must've been lunch time or something, eh?) Swan keeps dancing to the camera and then W. Morrissey nails Swann from Behind and whips him into a chair by a guard rail. So after that and being rolled into the ring by Morrissey, what does Swann do?

Swann decides it's "Super Cena" time and fights back like he wasn't hurt at all. 

Gotta love how this smaller guys can suddenly "Hulk Up" so to speak, and think they're seven feet tall and bullet proof when they're clearly out sized. (shakes head) Thankfully it didn't last very long because even a casual fan would realize Swann is unconvincing and should've stuck with 'selling' for a few minutes longer. Or just let it be a total beat down and 'sell' everything. THAT would've made for a better angle and further a story for why Swann to get sympathy from fans watching. BUT, you know the logic of today's wrestlers. "I got to get my shit in, no matter what". 

I love how Josh Matthews asks as security came in to stop Morrssey "Have you ever seen anything like this before".

Yeah Josh, we have. Too many times in too many other promotions, moron.

Thankfully this was short.

TABLES MATCH Goes Off The Rails! (No, It Really Doesn't) | IMPACT! June 3, 2021

 

So now we're back to having no fans OR Impact employees for this match between Jake Something and Rohit Raju. 

The least they could do is TRY, and stay consistent. Either have the employees out there for the whole show like AEW was doing, or stick to the piped in fan noise.

I guess as usual, details don't mean anything in Impact Wrestling. And it shows, week in? And week out.

Love how Raju just out and out "no sells" Jake's clothesline. Then follows up by "No selling" what looked like Raju blatantly running into a thrust to the throat by Jake. 

Yep, these current guys sure have been trained well in the art of 'no selling', that's for sure.

A guy as big as Jake clobbers anyone the size of Rohit? Guess what, they're gonna be staying the fuck down, NOT popping right back up. (rolls eyes) Why is it this current era of wrestlers have to try and be "Super Cena"? It doesn't work and looks pretty fucking stupid every time they do it. 

I guess the 'agent' who helped put this match together decided "selling' wasn't gonna be much of an option either, eh? 

OH SHIT, Raju FINALLY 'sold' a move! Only after no selling the obvious ones that he finally 'sell' a clothesline by Jake. Hey, better late than never, huh. 

Anyone remember when a clothesline was a finishing move in matches? I do. 

Now it's just a willy nilly move because "We got to get all our shit in, no matter what" is the mentality and logic of wrestlers now.

Well that didn't last long because he failed the 'selling' test again when he got speared in the corner. I wondered how long he was gonna sell consistently and the answer I got is? Not long at all, LOL. 

Jake sold a chair shot to the back by Rohit followed by his arm getting jammed by the chair way better than Raju has sold most of this match. Let that sink in about how sad that fact really is.

And I'm only a minute and twenty seven seconds into this almost six minute highlight clip.. Boy do we have a long way to go.

So Raju yells "I'LL BREAK HIS ARM" while having Jake in a cross face aaahahahahahahahahahahha!He's pulling up more on Jake's neck and head more than the arm and he yells that.

Maybe if he actually did the hold CORRECTLY, yelling that would've made more sense. Funny how so many of today's wrestlers use that hold but yet it's not san effective submission hold anymore. Just another willy nilly transitional move now. Yet no agent in any of the major companies seem to want to notice this, HHMMM. Even though there aren't any submissions ion this particular match. The general observation of it not being a submissive hold still stands. 

And Jake should actually take some time to show the other wrestlers on the Impact Roster what 'selling' is. He and Tasha Steele do it better than anyone else working in Impact. Why don't bookers like Tommy Dreamer say something? No balls? Funny how I ask this every week and there never seems to be an answer, HHMMM.

I'm still waiting for this tables match to "go off the rails". I've been waiting quite awhile now and this has been more chairs, than tables. 

30 seconds after I wrote that last sentence? Jake spears Raju thru a table for the win.

As for the match going "off the rails"? False advertising again in the part of the moron who uploads these clips to YouTube. Then again, why am I not surprised.

Here's the link to the clip. Yawner at best. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ypZjPMPHzuw

Josh Alexander & TJP Go 60 MINUTES In A Match That Goes WWAAYY Too Long | IMPACT! Highlights June 3, 2021

 

I watched the clip that started this match on BTI and this went WWAAYY too long. As I watched this I kept asking myself, "Have these two EVER learned what 'proper selling' really is"? 

If they did they for some reason haven't used it since they were taught it. OR, they just have no clue, what 'proper selling' really is.

You choose which one it is. 

TJP of course did his usual flip flop, acrobatic bullshit that doesn't look anywhere convincing. Only idiot fans of today who have no clue what good pro wrestling is like this kind of 'gymnastic wrestling'. And Josh Alexander doing this bargain basement wannabe Kurt Angle gimmick doesn't jive with me, and actually has me wishing Kurt Angle would come out and "Angle Slam' Alexander and then tell him that imitation ISN'T, the best form of flattery here.

So you have these two, flipping and bouncing around like a pinball in a pinball machine and me asking over and over "Is this crap ever gonna end"? 

Not, for a very LONG TIME unfortunately.

Note to both TJP and Josh Alexander. If you two ever do learn how to 'sell' properly, your matches would actually, be better. Just saying.

But of course, they? Learn how to 'SELL'? You'll have better chances finding the body of Jimmy Hoffa before they realize that 'selling' can actually benefit them.

I saw a recent match between Shane Douglas and an indy guy named Façade that took place in a small indy group called ACW that was 10 times better than THIS shit. No 2 dozen flip flop moves in two minutes, REAL 'selling' of moves throughout the match, things that most wrestlers today should take notes from. But as usual, they won't because if you ask them, they'll tell you that THEY, know better, when they really don't. And this match is a great example that they don't.

And the 'marks' can't use the predictable argument of "It got over with the fans", because.... THERE WAS NO FANS THERE! Just Impact Employees as They're now copying what AEW was doing"! LOL! So they have no excuses to hide behind why this was such a horrible outing that was given way more time than it really deserved.

Billy Corgan Wants Former WWE Star To Join NWA

 

Yesterday six wrestlers hit the free agent market following more roster cuts by WWE. On today’s episode of Busted Open Radio, NWA owner Billy Corgan revealed his interest in several of the names. One talent in particular stood out as a guy Corgan would like to sign.

“Braun Strowman,” Corgan said with a laugh. “If he was green in NXT, I’d be jumping all over it. There aren’t a lot of big guys that have that little of ability. So you think ‘how do you let a guy like that out the door?’ I don’t mean to be critical, I’m not making the business decisions. But I don’t know how you let a guy like that out the door. Ruby Riott I think has a very, very bright future. Lana? Holy crap, how do you let her out the door? I mean I’ve seen Lana in person, just behind the scenes. A truly beautiful woman. Marketable to the nines, has worked very, very hard as best I can see, both in the public and what I know behind the scenes to really improve. I don’t know how you let her go.

“I don’t understand it, but again I’m not making those decisions and whatever those reasons, there’s obviously a lot of speculation. But when you look at that list you went ‘oh man, this is pretty wild.’ Especially when things are heating up between AEW and WWE, at least in the public’s mind. Maybe WWE doesn’t feel that way, there’s a lot of difference there in terms of the business. But in terms of the public’s mind you have a bit of a rivalry going on. AEW obviously has some momentum. I think to dump key talents like that on the market at this time seems like a really odd decision.”

Corgan later returned to WWE, talking about how many hours of programming they produce a year. He criticized WWE’s use of this time, comparing it to the booking of TNA by Vince Russo back in the mid 2000’s.

“Let’s take WWE,” Corgan said. “How many hours of programming a year are they running? 200 hours? You’re asking people to watch a 200 hour a year movie. The payoffs have to be worth it. Going back to when I used to watch TNA back in the old, old days, I’d watch and there’d be all these builds and we’d get to the pay per views. And my old pal Vinny Ru (Vince Russo) would book these screw job finishes and I’d say ‘why did I watch for two months?’ And of course Vince would argue with me behind the scenes and say ‘well nobody cares. The ratings and you know.’ God bless Vince, but I just don’t get it. It’s like watching a movie and three minutes before the finish the guy turns to the camera and goes ‘this doesn’t matter. But watch it anyway.'”
