In 2006, the wrestling world was put on notice when Kurt Angle signed with TNA Wrestling and left WWE after spending eight years with the company.
On the latest episode of his podcast, Angle revealed why he ultimately chose TNA after leaving the WWE, stating he wanted to carry a product and have a bigger purpose than what he had while in WWE.
“The reason I signed with TNA, and there’s nothing wrong with this, but when you’re in WWE, it’s a huge company,” Angle mentioned. “It’s bigger than you. There’s nothing you can do. You can have the greatest career of all time, you’re not going to make a bigger impression on the company itself. TNA, it’s a smaller company and you’re the bigger name in the company. You’re carrying the company on your back and making it into a WWE. You have a purpose that way. When you’re in WWE, you’re never bigger than the product. When you’re in TNA, you are bigger than the product and what’s carrying that product to another level. There’s a bigger purpose in it.”
Angle continued to talk about how he was able to help TNA reach a new level of stardom that they never had prior to him signing. The Olympic Gold Medalist even spoke about how good it made him feel to represent a company that was having success.
“It was about me proving myself that I could be a formidable player and make a company grow bigger than it was,” Angle said. “I think I did a good job of that, it wasn’t just me. There were a lot of other wrestlers in that company but I wanted to show that I had a purpose in my life and that purpose was TNA. And I could make this company grow that never became as big as WWE, but there were times where the ratings started getting fairly close. We were doing two million viewers a week, 2.1 million viewers a week, which was a big deal for TNA at the time. It made me feel very good as a representative of the company that I was one of the main reasons for it.
When Angle first debuted, the company pitted him against Samoa Joe, who was holding a very long undefeated streak at the time. The former WWE Champion said he didn’t like the creative choice from TNA to have Angle face Joe in his first match with the company because he knew it would mean he was going over.
“I don’t know. I did not like that because Samoa Joe was undefeated,” Angle mentioned. “I felt like if I came into the company and started out with someone else, Joe and I could work up to each other in six months to a year. Really build our program, but they wanted to slingshot this thing and do it really quickly. Unfortunately, I ended Joe’s undefeated streak the first pay per view I wrestled. It made no sense at all. I just felt like we could’ve built this up, done a lot more pay per view buys if we built it the correct way instead of sling-shotting it. That’s what the company wanted, so that’s what I did.”
While it's already been announced that All Japan Pro Wrestling’s Francesco Akira will debut at RevPro's show on October 3 in London, where he will face Robbie X, It's also been announced that he will be making his way over to Scotland's ICW as well.

Jon Moxley shocks the wrestling world and confronts SCHAFF in DEFY Wrestling!
MATCH: The Butcher & The Blade vs. Chris Dickinson & Tom Lawlor
EVENT: Know Your Enemy (9/6/19)
#FreeTheNarrative (excerpt V)
The #WrestlingGod sees a #Vision.
Moose was the #essentialcharacter’s initial #project. A test for #ec3 to see if his #ControlYourNarrative ethos can be adopted by others.
EC3 braved the #troubled waters of his past to confront and torment #Moose in an attempt to make him become who he COULD be. While progress was made, the mission is not complete.
To see if Moose could truly ascend, he again arrived at #TheNarrative. Moose had to face a vision in the form of an enlightened spirit. That vision is @mattsydal.
Is Moose able to take a step closer to finishing what he started? Or will he remain on the path to falter when the hard work truly begins?
A bench warrant was issued on Thursday 9/23 for the arrest of former WWE developmental and Impact Wrestling star Trenesha Daniyall Biggers aka Rhaka Khan in advance of the scheduled start of her 10/4 trial before the 409th District Court in El Paso, Texas. Biggers is facing charges of interference with child custody and "aggravated kidnapping facilitate."
The trial, which has been pushed back multiple times due to the slowdown in the court system brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic. Biggers has been issued a DCLK Warrant aka a bench warrant, which can be issued by a judge or court, usually when a defendant fails to appear at a scheduled court hearing.
Beyond the scheduled start date of 10/4, there is a motion hearing listed on 10/12 as well, although what motion may be remains unclear.
Biggers was indicted on the charges in August 2019, leading to her being listed as one of El Paso’s most wanted fugitives after failing to appear in court. There are two court instances where her no-shows led to her bail being revoked. She was finally arraigned in December 2019. Biggers is being represented by a public defender.
In the State of Texas, interference with child custody is when someone "takes or retains a child when that person knows that the taking or detention of the child violates a judgment or order." It is considered a state jail felony and can be punishable by up to two years in prison.
Biggers last wrestled in 2011 for the now-defunct Lucha Libre USA promotion, which aired on MTV. Biggers was part of the 2005 WWE Diva Search and was signed to a developemental contract after failing to make it past the top 25 contestants in the search. She was sent to Deep South Wrestling but was released in May 2006. She worked for a number of independent promotions and in Japan before signing with Impact Wrestling in 2008, departing that promotion in 2009. She worked for Lucha Libre USA in 2010 and 2011.
Shortly after social media stories began to make the rounds about a reported assault on a transgender fan in the bathroom of The Globe Theater at last night's Pro Wrestling Guerrilla Threemendous event in Los Angeles, PWG issued the following statement:
Bryan Danielson was on a recent episode of the Sports Illustrated Media Podcast with Jimmy Traina where he reflected on his WWE experience, and looked ahead to his latest run now with AEW. Danielson talked about the freedom he has in AEW, and he talked about his experience working with writers in WWE.
“I was actually a little bit blown away,” Danielson admitted. “My first time I had to talk or anything was in Cincinnati, and I was like, so what are we doing? ‘I don’t know, what do you want to do?’ Wait, what? Last week in Newark, it was the same thing. I was never handed a sheet of paper. I was never told what we’re doing. We kind of sit down and decide what we’re doing, and I was just like, oh. And then there’s this overarching fear for me a little bit because some people don’t like working with the writers.
“I love working with the writers. I like collaborating. I had a really good time with that. Actually, one of my favorite times was as a bad guy in WWE as the ‘Planet’s Champion’, and the writer I worked with was Robert. We had so much fun, and he would present me with a piece of paper. I had a lot more leeway than a lot of people in WWE. I would work with the writer and be like, ‘Hey, what if we say this? What if we say this?’ And Robert was great because he would pull me back from the edge.
“Sometimes, I’d go off on a tangent. ‘Hey, this is too far environmental and maybe not focused enough on the show that we’re actually doing.’ I think Robert helped me stay on track. Eventually, I wasn’t saying anything about the environment at all, but Robert was great because he would throw in little things there, and so I love collaborating with the writers. There’s a real fear of the blank page – the writer thing of, hey, you have to craft your own story, and you want that. You want that freedom, but then all of a sudden, it’s like, oh no, here’s this blank page.
“You can create whatever you want. You’re like, ah, ah! That’s a little bit nerve racking, but for the last couple of months with WWE, I would get scripts. But my time in WWE has been pretty much that, always working with a writer but always collaborating, and in the last couple of months, I was part of the creative team a little bit. And so sometimes, very rarely, would I do my own stuff. ‘Hey, what if I said something like this?’ And I might have said that on a Tuesday. I’d show up on the Friday, and then it would be somebody else’s words but a version of what I kind of mentioned, and then we just work together.”
AEW has allowed talent to say what they want in promos. This has typically lead to talent using swears that are sometimes bleeped out on network TV, and Bryan talked about whether he will take advantage of that opportunity to go outside of the PG rating.
“Well, I’ve already used the s-h-i-t word on TV, but I think it’s all circumstantial,” Danielson noted. “I don’t look forward to using curse words, but the one thing that I do look forward to doing is not having to worry about PG in the sense of the actual wrestling. You can just get a little bit more intense and a little bit, I hate to use the word ‘violent’, but a little bit more violent in AEW. And I think in wrestling, sometimes that’s called for. When you have the big grudge match, people want to see that. I think one thing in WWE is when you start doing the Hell in the Cell matches, there’s no blood or whatever it is. I’m excited for that.”
Traina brought up the Justin Roberts tie incident, and noted how Danielson seems more relaxed in real life as opposed to a more violent personality. Danielson responded to that and talked about what pro wrestling has allowed for him.
“Well, to be fair with that specific incident, I legitimately choked him,” Danielson revealed. “Justin Roberts was the announcer, and I knew him a little bit, but I came from the background that, ‘hey, we have to make this look good, and if he doesn’t know, like, I can’t trust him to be great at what I do, which is the pretend part of it.’ They wanted a gang style beat down, so I wrapped it up.
“There were big, big marks on his neck after. But I think that is an aspect of my personality that pro wrestling has really allowed me to explore, especially pre-WWE is the more aggressive side of me. Because for the most part, I try to stay very calm and very chill. I don’t want to be angry, but sometimes it’s nice to be able to get that aggression out, and pro wrestling allows you to do that in a safe way.”
British promotion Revolution Pro Wrestling announced last night that All Japan Pro Wrestling’s Francesco Akira will debut at its show on October 3 in London. He will face Robbie X.

#FreeTheNarrative (excerpt IV) When you chose to become #Free and first enter #TheNarrative, you earn an entrance that confronts your #past. Some look upon the past with regret. Their wrong decisions, missed opportunities, severed friendships, and love. The great fear that on your final day all you see is your lost potential. Others, like @themattcardona, reminisce fondly about the past. The good, the highs, the joy of a life well-lived. Childhood nostalgia and memories that last forever. They show #gratitude. Regardless, when you walk into #TheNarrative you understand that your past is just a #story and when you realize that, it has no power over you. Who walks out of The Narrative is never the same person who walked in.

AEW manager and wrestling legend Arn Anderson joined Busted Open Radio Friday to talk about his partnership with Cody Rhodes. Anderson was asked about the poor reception Rhodes received this past Wednesday on Dynamite for his match against Malakai Black. He offered up a theory as to why Rhodes was booed.
“I’m just speculating and I don’t pretend a mind reader, but I’m trying to get into the head of a wrestling fan,” Anderson said. “The most talented guy and the number one guy in Hollywood right now is The Rock. There’s no disputing that, I’m talking as an actor. John Cena was a guy that had always stood and was dedicating 100% of his time to the fans, to the company, to the business. I feel like when he started doing movies and he was no longer with WWE, I think fans, possibly, not putting words in their mouth, may feel a little afraid that they got their support behind these guys, and then they got red hot and took off to Hollywood.
“I don’t think that’s the case. They earned everything they got and I think they deserve a chance, certainly Rock and Cena, to pursue other things. I think that may be ‘okay, Cody’s going to get red hot. He’s going to do all these shows and he’s not going to be around any more.’ And I think they might feel a little bit, I don’t want to say betrayed, but slighted a little bit.”
The boos for Rhodes and a confrontation with the referee during the match have led to speculation about a possible Rhodes heel turn, something he himself has denied. Rhodes and Anderson also had a brief confrontation during the match, after Rhodes accidentally knocked Anderson off the ring apron.
As Anderson pointed out, Rhodes does have several Hollywood obligations in his future. The former two time TNT Champion is a judge on the game show The Go Big Show, which recently filmed its second season, and will star alongside his wife, Brandi Rhodes, in the new reality series Rhodes to the Top, premiering September 29 following AEW Dynamite.
The United Wrestling Network's Prime Time Live will return with a two hour live PPV broadcast on Saturday 10/2 on Fite.TV at 9:30 PM EST and will finally, finally, finally crown their first-ever champion when Chris Dickinson faces Mike Bennett.
Primetime Live ran as a weekly PPV series from September through December 2020 from Thunder Studios in California because COVID-19 concerns led to a pause on all production. The series featured a tournament to crown the first-ever UWN Champion, with Chris Dickinson and Mike Bennett going to the finals. The match was finally slated to take place at the debut Championship Wrestling from Atlanta taping, but the remnants of Hurricane Ida devastating the Northeast prevented Dickinson from making the taping. Now, with the constellations hopefully aligned, the match will finally take place.
The Commerce, CA taping at the Commerce Casino will be part of a Championship Wrestling from Hollywood TV taping. After two episodes of CWH are taped, they will go live on FITE.
Also announced for the taping:
*David Finlay vs. Will Alday.

Scurll has been away from wrestling after being named in last year’s #SpeakingOut movement. Prior to that, Scurll had re-signed with Ring of Honor and was set to take on the duties of head booker for the company. He went on a hiatus after being named in the movement and ROH officially announced the two had parted ways back in January of this year.
Story on that can be seen here. https://billsbrandnewblog.blogspot.com/2020/06/as-marty-scurll-remains-employed-by-nwa.html
And here https://billsbrandnewblog.blogspot.com/2020/10/news-on-marty-scurll-being-removed-from.html
Back in late January, he was involved with a storyline at a NJPW Strong taping, but it never aired, reportedly due to the backlash from fans. It was then reported Scurll wouldn’t be appearing at any future NJPW or NJPW Strong shows in the near future.
Scurll hasn’t wrestled a match since March of 2020.
But NNOOW, there's apparently some schmuck who's desperate to make a buck that has him booked on a show.
What, in the fuck, was that moron thinking.
Marty Scurll is scheduled to make his return to pro wrestling for CWA in San Juan, Puerto Rico on Saturday, October 23 at Halloween Fan Fest.
Keep the under age girls away from him.
The spot that left Cumberbatch in the hospital occurred during the finals of a deathmatch tournament. He received a Canadian destroyer (flipping piledriver) off of a balcony into a collection of tables and other debris. What added to the risk factor was the fact that all the padding in the ring was removed, leaving nothing but exposed wood below the tables.
Cumberbatch, a local favorite in Colorado, is currently in the hospital, with one source telling people that “things are not looking so good” for him.
Of course it isn't, you do a dumb ass stunt like that, with no padding or SOMETHING top help 'cushion the fall' you end up with stupid fucking injuries like this, DUH! Even Stevie Wonder could this was cause for disaster, and for what? MAYBE 100 "marks"; chanting "He's Hardcore, He's Hardcore" OORR the usual and typical "This is awesome, this is awesome".
How awesome do you think feels NOW? Fucking dumb ass.
A Gofundme page to assist Cumberbatch and his family in paying medical bills and any other related expenses has been organized in honor of the indie wrestler. You can access that fundraiser at this link.
The fundraiser page includes a passage that reads, “Professional wrestlers take huge risks every time they step in the ring, and when the risk is successful, the fans delight. However, those risks can have serious consequences when something goes wrong. Unfortunately, something went wrong for one of those wrestlers and he needs our help.
“All funds will go to Benny and his family to use to cover medical costs or however they choose. Please give what you can, and if you can’t give anything, please share with your friends and family. Any help is appreciated. Thank you.”
Primos Premiere Pro Wrestling, the organization that hosted the event where Benny was injured, has also committed to helping the cause. They have contributed all proceeds from the deathmatch tournament to Benny’s medical bills.
What they 'need to pout out there' is an order of no more of these dumb ass stunts.
Did the promoter of this show know that stunt was gonna happan? And knowing how dangerous it is why did he allow it if he knew about it?
There's some questions I bet won't be answered.
And here's another one, does this promotion have the balls to insist, moves like this aren't done any more, on ANY of their shows?
Any 'reasonable' promoter would put that order into place, immediately.

According to lucha libre program Más Lucha, WWE star Gran Metalik has requested his release from the promotion, months after fellow luchador Andrade requested, and was granted, his release from WWE.
In their report, Más Lucha states that Metalik’s reasons for his request are due to his frustration with his direction in the company(Like that's any big surprise as WWE fails most of the talents they hire). They also note that Metalik’s deal runs through 2023 and he is looking to continue wrestling in the United States, his native Mexico and Japan, where he competed in New Japan Pro-Wrestling on and off from 2010 to 2017.
A sixteen year pro from Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico, Gran Metalik gained notoriety in CMLL, first under the name Metalik and later as Máscara Dorada. As Dorada, Metalik developed a reputation as one of the premiere high flyers in lucha libre, winning the CMLL World Welterweight Championship four times, a record that still holds to this day. In Japan, he notably challenged AEW star Kenny Omega for the IWGP Junior Heavyweight Championship in 2015.
Metalik was brought into WWE in 2016 to compete in the Cruiserweight Classic, where he reached the finals before losing to TJ Perkins. He continued to appear in CMLL while working the CWC before signing with WWE later that year. His most notable run with the company has been a member of the Lucha House Party with Lince Dorado and Kalisto, who was released from WWE earlier this year.
Metalik was most recently seen on RAW competing in a Tag Team Turmoil match with Dorado to determine the next #1 contenders for the RAW Tag Team Championships. Should his release be granted, his last WWE appearance was on this week’s episode of Main Event, where he and Dorado lost to fellow luchadores Humberto Carillo and Angel Garza.
You can see the MAS Lucha story here. https://www.maslucha.com/gran-metalik-pide-su-liberacion-de-wwe/
There is no word if WWE will grant his release.

In an interview on Rasslin with Brandon Walker, Danielson said that while he will lead others in doing the chant, he won’t do it himself. He said that this is due to a conversation with Kevin Dunn prior to his debut with AEW.
“I'm not doing it myself because I respect WWE's intellectual property,” Danielson said. “I don't think anything legally, they haven't threatened anything legally. So I had a great conversation with Kevin Dunn with WWE before I debuted with AEW. I was very upfront with WWE about, 'Okay, I want to let you guys know I'm leaving. This is my debut date’ and all that kind of stuff. They asked me, politely, to respect their intellectual property, even some of the things that couldn't be legally enforced. I'm trying my best to do that.”
Danielson made his debut for AEW at All Out back on September 5, choosing AEW over WWE after his contract with WWE expired earlier this year. In his final match for WWE, he lost to Roman Reigns in a WWE Universal title match where his career was on the line.
Prior to his in-ring AEW debut tomorrow at Dynamite: Grand Slam, Danielson wrote an article that was posted on Player’s Tribune thanking WWE.
So, WWE sent Kevin Dunn to ask Bryan not to do something they can't make him NOT do, AAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! If that isn't one of the DUMBEST things I've ever seen WWE do.
What if Bryan would've said "no", then what? What can WWE do? Nothing but sit there and take it.
And if the fans do it the WWE can't do shit about that either.
They really do have a real 'interesting' mentality over at WWE, don't they.
Instead of trying to improve their product, trying to get their creatively challenged creative department to actually 'create;' something that's 'creative' enough to keep fans interested. They instead do this dumb shit.
Yep, nice to see that the WWE has their 'priorities' in order (shakes head).
Alexa Bliss took to Twitter this afternoon and called out Wrestling Observer Newsletter editor Dave Meltzer over a report he made on last night’s RAW. And once again, Meltzer got 'checked'.
It was reported on the latest edition of Wrestling Observer Radio that there were around 8,000 fans in attendance at the PNC Arena for last night’s RAW in Raleigh, and that 1,500 fans got up and left the arena during the Alexa’s Playground segment between Bliss and RAW Women’s Champion Charlotte Flair.
Bliss took to Twitter this afternoon and dismissed the report.
Multiple fans in attendance have also dismissed the report, while Bryan Alvarez noted on Wrestling Observer Live today that the number of fans who walked out was closer to 700. Bliss and multiple fans in attendance insist that this did not happen. So really they should stop trying to lie, especially when they keep getting caught in their lies every time they try it.
Want another example of when a wrestler put Meltzer in his place? You know I have em. So here you go.
Here's where Asuka put Meltzer on blast and 'checked' him.

Then there's Jim Cornette and Brian Last putting Dave in his place, right here.

Yet ANOTHER example of Dave getting 'checked' like a mother fucker.

So Meltzer, do yourself a favor, stop lying. There's a concept for you.
You obviously don't have the talent for it and you CERTAINLY, aren't very good at it.
