Dirt Sheet Contributor Was Removed From NXT TV Taping By Security (Talk About a B*tch Move)

 


WWE pulls a Bitch move. Nothing more, nothing less, it was indeed a bitch move. 


A longtime WWE NXT fan and online contributor JJ Williams says he was escorted out of last week’s NXT TV tapings from the Capitol Wrestling Center at the WWE Performance Center in Orlando.


Williams, an official correspondent for the Wrestling Observer/F4Wonline.com website who often tweets notes and photos from NXT events, took to Twitter and said he was removed from the NXT taping due to his affiliation with the WONF4W website. Williams noted that security took a copy of his ID, had him delete the photos on his phone from the taping, and then escorted him off the property. Williams added that his time and devotion will no longer be given to WWE moving forward.



Williams, has a reputation of being a pleasure to deal with, has formed relationships with several talent over the years due to his online contributions, and he has developed a following of fans on social media.


Williams also attends AEW events when able to. AEW President & CEO Tony Khan responded to his tweets on the NXT incident, and said he looks forward to having Williams at next Wednesday’s Homecoming edition of AEW Dynamite at Daily’s Place in Jacksonville.


“See you at #AEWDynamite Homecoming, JJ! We’re looking forward to your visit,” Khan wrote in response to the tweets.


WWE was asked to comment by several to comment on the Williams incident, and as usual they're staying silent about it. 


Imagine that.







Vince McMahon: "AEW Is Not Same Level Of Competition As WCW" ("OOOOOO", Zing, Slam)

 


Bet the AEW roster and its "Marks" aren't happy about that insult, LMAO!

For all that the "Marks" Jericho, Cody, "Money Mark" Tony Khan, etc love to say, think and assume they're on the same level as WWE. it looks like McMahon has put AEW in their place.


In short, AEW got "checked".



Vince was asked about AEW during today’s WWE Q2 2021 earnings call with investors. The caller noted that AEW seems to be making significant investments with their roster, and they are gaining in viewership, especially in the 18-49 key demographic. He asked Vince how WWE currently views AEW as competition, and if he feels WWE needs to counter AEW’s investments with their own additional roster investments, seeing as how WWE and AEW could be competing for media rights in the future, or if this is a “rising tides lift all boats” type of situation like there was back in the day with WCW.


“Well, it certainly is not a situation where ‘rising tides’ because that was when Ted Turner was coming after us with all of Time Warner’s assets as well,” Vince responded. “That was a different situation. AEW is where they are. I don’t really know what their plans are, all I know is what our plans are.


“I don’t consider them competition in the way that I would consider WCW back in the day, not anywhere near close to that. And I’m not so sure what their investments are as far as their talent is concerned, but perhaps we can give them some more.”



WWE President & Chief Revenue Officer Nick Khan added this on how WWE sees everything as competition, including sleep.


“I think the way we always look at these situations, you know, it’s sort of like a horse race where the horse has blinders on,” Khan added. “We’re looking straight ahead at our lane and making sure that we stay in the front of the pack. At the same time, everything is our competition. Someone had a line a couple of weeks ago, that we all chuckled at and agreed with – sleep is our competition. Right?

“If it was up to us, people could be up 24 hours a day, watching content from different content providers, hopefully including ours. So, we don’t look at any organization particularly as competition, yet we see everything as competitive with what we’re trying to do, in terms of eyeballs.”



Wonder how the owners and bookers of AEW will respond to that? Time will tell if they even can.


AEW’s Updated Code Of Conduct For Fans (LMAO Good Luck With That)

 



Trying to micromanage every little thing? GEE, How "WWE" is that? hahahahahahahaha.

Good luck trying to make fans not be unruly. GGGOOODDD luck with that one, dipshits.

SSOO, get a load of this shit, this is so fucking laughable. Probably the funniest thing I've read all day. Tony Khan claimed AEW would be the alternative to WWE but here he is, trying to micromanage and control the fans like McMahon has tried to do (and failed I might add). 



AEW has updated their Code of Conduct for fans attending their shows. The promotion unveiled their new code prior to last night’s tapings of Dark: Elevation, Dark and Dynamite. Fans will be found unbecoming of the code with the following;


– Behavior that is unruly, disruptive, threatening or illegal in nature, including fighting and physical harassment


– Foul, harassing or abusive language towards other fans or staff


– Unreasonably obstructing the view of other patrons and standing in aisles


– Smoking (including e-cigarettes)


– Abuse of drugs or alcohol


This isn’t the first time AEW has unveiled a Code of Conduct for fans, having done so back in March of 2020 for a Dynamite taping in Broomfield, Colorado. Soon after AEW was forced off the road due to the COVID-19 pandemic, taping in Daily’s Place at Jacksonville, Florida until June of this year.


The updated code comes three weeks after an incident at AEW’s Dynamite tapings in Miami in early July, where a fan attempted to reach the ring to attack MJF. The fan claimed his actions were done in honor of Jim Cornette, a vocal critic of AEW. Cornette would later distance himself from the fan. The code may have also been influenced by the conclusion of GCW Homecoming this past weekend, where Matt Cardona was pelted with garbage after defeating Nick Gage to win the GCW World Championship. Gage competed on AEW Dynamite last night, losing to Chris Jericho in a No Rules Match in Dynamite’s main event.



You can see a video of this updated "Code Of Conduct, right here. https://twitter.com/i/status/1420568735287582722

ALBERTO DEL RIO TRIAL SET FOR THIS MONDAY IN SAN ANTONIO ( COULD HIS DAYS BE NUMBERED? )

 




Former WWE and Impact Wrestling Champion Jose Alberto Rodriguez Chucuan aka Alberto Del Rio and Alberto el Patron is slated to stand trial this Monday 8/2 in San Antonio, Texas, facing one count of aggravated kidnapping and four counts of sexual assault after being indicted back in October 2020.  If the charges stand and Chucuan is found guilty, he could be facing as much as life in prison. 

The trial was originally slated to take place in January, but was postponed several times.    It should be noted that several months ago, a woman (we are protecting her identity for obvious reason) issued an apology via social media for what Chucuan's family has been going through since the arrest.  Chucuan's brother responded, claiming on his own social media that it was an admission that the charges were false.  Since that social media comment, nothing has changed in regard to the trial date, but if the woman was indeed rescinding her claims, one would think that would quickly be brought up in court as the trial commences this Monday.  Chucuan has stated publicly that the woman who made the allegations against him has dropped her claims and that he expects the situation to be wrapped up as soon as possible.  As of this writing, however, charges have not been dropped by prosecutors.


Chucuan, 44, was arrested on 5/9/20 after a victim went to San Antonio, Texas authorities, stating that on Sunday 5/3/20 at 10 PM, Chucuan allegedly became angry with her and physically assaulted her after accusing her of infidelity.  When the victim would not admit to the infidelity, Chucuan allegedly slapped her "across the head" several times.  The victim also alleged that Chucuan "forced her to wear a dress and dance for him" and that when she refused and he told her not to start crying because if she did, "he would take her son and drop him in the middle of the road somewhere."

The arrest affidavit stated that the woman alleged Chucuan had sexually assaulted her and that she had her injuries documented via photographs. 


At the time, The FOX affiliate in San Antonio reported, "Police said Rodriguez Chucuan then tied the woman's hands with boxing straps, put a sock in her mouth and sexually assaulted her for several hours, using various objects. According to investigators, he also punched her in the back during the assault, causing visible injuries. The victim told detectives she does not remember much after he placed his hand around her throat."

TMZ later reported additional details that brought the accusations into a much more disturbing light, stating that the victim reported the attack started at around 10 PM on 5/3/20 and that it lasted over 16 hours, ending  on 5/4/20 on 2:30 PM.  The victim went to the police the same day with TMZ's report noting that the responding officer saw bruises on her face, arms, legs and neck.  The victim alleged that Chucuan attempted to burn her passport and smashed her laptop computer and cell phone.  TMZ reported that the victim, "..also claims Del Rio attacked her, causing multiple injuries and left her, 'feeling woozy and dizzy from the hits to her head.' "    The victim told police she was afraid and intended to leave San Antonio as soon as possible.


In Texas, a conviction for aggravated kidnapping, if punishable in the first degree could result in a a prison sentence ranging from 5 to 99 years or life imprisonment and/or a fine up to $10,000.  However, if the accused can prove they released the alleged victim voluntarily, they could only be convicted of aggravated kidnapping in the second degree, which could result in a prison sentence ranging from two to 20 years and/or a fine up to $10,000.   If Del Rio was indeed indicted, the minimum prison sentence for sexual assault (per count) under Texas law would be 2 years with a maximum of up to 20 years.  As a second degree felony under Texas law, sexual assault can also lead to a fine of up to $10,000, in addition to incarceration.  

Since departing WWE, Chucuan has wrestled as Alberto el Patron in Impact Wrestling, last wrestling in February 2020 for Qatar Pro Wrestling.  He is currently being advertised for a 7/31 match against former WWE star Andrade in McAllen, Texas for the Nacion Lucha Libre promotion. 

Chucuan fought in 2019 for MMA promotion Combate Global (at the time known as Combate Americas), where he also held a figurehead executive position.  A representative for MMA promotion Combate Americas declined to give a statement to PWInsider.com at the time of Chucuan's arrest. Chucuan has not appeared in any capacity for the promotion since his indictment. 


Patron returned to performing as a professional wrestler earlier this year and is booked for a lucha event Summerslam weekend in Las Vegas.


TAMPA POLICE STILL SEEKING WWE THUNDERDOME THIEF

Wale Asks Wrestling Fans Why They Can’t Enjoy Both WWE And AEW (And I Have An Answer)

 


Rapper Wale was actively tweeting during this week’s episode of AEW Dynamite: Fight for the Fallen. Prior to the show, Wale asked fans to guess Tony Khan’s advertised announcement, which turned out to be AEW heading to the United Center in Chicago on August 20 for AEW Rampage: First Dance.


After getting into a back-and-forth with a few fans, Wale wondered why fans of WWE and AEW were constantly at odds. Wale also pointed to how talents from AEW and WWE happen to be friends.


It’s no secret that Wale is a big fan of pro wrestling. Earlier this year, he performed Big E’s “Feel The Power” theme song at WrestleMania 37. Wale also appeared during an episode of WWE NXT in Oct. 2019. 



He wants an answer? I'm going to give him an answer. And as usual it won't be a very popular answer. Because when someone like me speaks the truth, the "Marks" always get in an uproar.


Truth hurts, too bad, deal with it. Here's some more of that truth right now.



Why can't some people watch two different brands? In my case the answer is very simple.


The product that both companies put out? sucks. 


While that's usually a simple yet, easy answer, "Marks" always want detailed reasons why I feel that way. So I again will show why and then watch as the "Marks" deflect and ignore facts and truth like they usually do.



I haven't been a fan of the "WWE Way" they present wrestling for almost ten years now. And every time I've tried to watch it, no matter if it's RAW or Smackdown or even NXT.. The "WWE Way" rubs me the wrong way every time and I get reminded every time why I don't watch it.


From the scripted promos that are written for the roster by writers who really don't know much about wrestling, to the actual characters they churn out cookie cutter, willy nilly are among the top reasons right there. "Sports Entertainment" doesn't jive very well with me and it never will, not to mention the high level of "No Selling" in matches that WWE, AEW, as well as Impact and Ring Of Honor have is another insult to a guy like me who has watched wrestling since the 70's. Guys literally "walking into " a sidewalk slam or other move is so obcvious it's really fucking pathetic to see. Along with "Let's punch each other in the face two dozen times and nobody staggers or falls to the mat. In a real fight if I punched you in the face? You'd have a black eye and you WILL stagger. That's just a true fact of life. 


Add to it the fact they don't really present their characters in a way that really want you to care about them, or invest much time in them. Nobody really stands out anymore as they're all presented the same "WWE Way". 



Who really, truly stands out? Not very many that's for sure. 



Bruiser Brody? he stood out. Nick Bockwinkel? he stood out. Harley Race, King Kong Bundy, Roddy Piper, I can go on and on and compared to the "wrestlers" you have now? NOINE of them stands out like the ones I listed have and always will.


You think you could've handed a guy like Harley Race or Bruiser Brody a "script" and think they're gonna memorize the shit that's 'written' for them to say? Yeah good luck with that. Most promos come off better if you just give the 'bullet points', here's your opponent, this is the match, GO. And guys like that can do a promo that knocks it out of the ballpark every time. Try giving the late Bobby Heenan a script and see what that get you (plenty of laughter most likely).


Throw in the illogical booking and illogical storytelling and that just adds to the reasons why it sucks. Going from point A to point B to point C doesn't seem to be a concept that WWE remembers anymore. in the WWE Universe logic doesn't seem to exist and in AEW their logic is blatantly ass backwards, and they seem to enjoy the fact they're ass backwards.

AEW claimed they were going to be the 'alternative' to WWE but guess what "Marks", they're not. They do alot of the very same things WWE does but for some reason you want to ignore it. What amuses me alot about "AEW Marks" is they claim to hate WWE but when AEW hires a WWE cast off, they cheer like mad about it. Alot of AEW's roster is, what? OOHH guys that used to work for the WWE, but they want to be known as the 'alternative' to the WWE. Makes you go, HHHMMMMM.


Every match in AEW HAS to go out of the ring, many matches just HAVE to have a guy diving on four guys just standing there 'waiting' to have someone land on them. If that was done in the first match, what's so impressive about seeing it in the third match?


I'll give you a hint, nothing. 


Everybody's doing the same moves in every match so no move really stands out in match three than it did in match one. Everyone "has to get their spots in" in every match which doesn't help with telling a story within the match.  Or the best one which is all the flip flop, gymnastic routines where they have to do a dozen spots in a minute that have no meaning whatsoever. 


It's pretty obvious many of this era's wrestlers either weren't trained properly in ring psychology, have no clue what that is or simply don't want to use it. You tell me which one of the three it is.


Not to mention that the very people booking and writing AEW have no experience doing that and shouldn't be booking a fucking thing to begin with. That's facts and the truth and while AEW has guys who know what ring psychology is and have booking experience. They don't seem to have the balls to tell the AEW roster the truth. OR they're just there to milk the "money mark" Tony Khan out of a paycheck every week. 


"As long as the checks keep clearing, who gives a fuck if the product is the shits", eh? That the mentality?



Thankfully I don't have to 'depend' on the major wrestling companies for my fix for wrestling. There's plenty of Indy groups out there that give me what I'm looking for. MLW, OVW, Reality Of Wrestling, Billy Corgan's NWA, among others I watch every week. Guys like Darius Carter from Warriors of Wrestling, Gino Medina, Nick Aldis all give me what I look for. 


So there's your answer Wale.. Why can't one watch both brands? because both brands suck. They don't cater to a fan like me and it's obvious they don't want to. Brining John Cena in for a 'summer of no selling' isn't catering to a fan like me. And what it would take for those companies, as well as Impact to cater to a fan like me is obviously too much work for them, so they don't bother and would rather take the lazy ways out. 


They prove that fact every week. And they're obviously going, to continue to do that every week.

Funny how none of them 'marks' dared to brace me and try to argue it after I put thew facts out.


That might've been one the smartest things they could've ever done, but then again the absolute facts they couldn't deflect from had them have no choice but to stay silent. They no longer had any arguing power thanks to me (smiles).

WWE Had Plans For Karrion Kross To Lose Again On RAW (Proving That The Creative On The Main Rosters Are 'Creatively Challenged' )

 

Why would you have the guy lose twice in a row? Why, even have him lose in his debut match on the main roster? Especially to someone like Jeff Hardy who hasn't been really pushed anywhere as of late? 


This, is a prime example of what is wrong with most "creative" teams in the major federations in this country. They are indeed 'creatively challenged' when it comes to properly pushing and presenting a guy who has had a wealth of success before coming to a major brand. 


AEW and Impact have the same problems and like WWE, the only people who feel they don't have that problem, is the 'creatively challenged' creative team themselves.


You have a guy who tore it up on NXT and everyone saw it, but then you 'bring him up' to the main roster, KNOWING what success he had before you brought him up. Just so, you can make him lose immediately. 


Tell me, what kind of fucking sense, does that make? I'll give you a hint, NONE.. No sense, what so ever. Yet people continue to 'aspire' to work for the WWE. WHY? When you get this kind of shitty treatment from people who have no real clue how to properly push you. 



Yet, having a summer of "no selling SuperCena" which wasn't a ratings draw at all, is 'such a way better idea', eh? (Rolls eyes). But this is what you get "Marks", when you aspire to be in the WWE Universe. Another in a long list of flopping, fumbling and failing to do something correctly.


Makes you proud, to be a WWE fan, don't it, LMAO!



WWE NXT Champion Karrion Kross was reportedly scheduled to lose to Jeff Hardy on last night’s RAW from Kansas City. The Hardy vs. Kross non-title rematch from the week before was scheduled to take place on last night’s RAW, but it was nixed due to Hardy being pulled from the road after a positive COVID-19 test. Kross ended up facing Keith Lee instead, and getting the win via submission.


In an update, the original plan for last night’s RAW was for Hardy to defeat Kross for the second week in a row. There is no word on a specific creative direction for Kross after the second straight loss to Hardy, but several members of the WWE creative team, and even more members of the roster, were said to be baffled by the idea of Kross losing once, let alone a second straight week. It was previously reported that Kross’ first loss to Hardy led to shock within WWE, and the same went for fans and wrestlers on social media. The disappointment among fans led to a NXT segment being re-taped at last week’s tapings, as covered here.


Kross cut a post-RAW promo last night and warned Hardy that their feud is not over by a long shot. You can click here for that report, which includes news on Scarlett possibly teasing her eventual RAW arrival.


There is also no word on when Hardy will be cleared to return to action, but it looks like the feud with Kross will continue. "Yay" Just what 'wwee alllwwaayyys wanted' NOT. (Rolls eyes)


Kross’ feud with Samoa Joe is set to continue on tonight’s NXT episode.

Can the "Marks" Get Any Dumber? WWELL.. They Sure Can, Have A Look

 

The I.Q. level of most of today's "Marks" is really at an all time low. I've shown time and time again by how easy I put em in "check" or put them in their place with no effort needed whatsoever that their level of intelligence is near rock bottom at best.


And just when I thought I've encountered the dumbest "Mark" walking the face of the earth? Someone like this fucking idiot comes along, and proves me wrong.

I mean I've come across some real DUMB ASSED "Marks" in my time, but I think this guy? Takes the cake and has the top spot for DUMB ASS. 


The fact he really thinks, he has a 'serious argument' here with me is so amusing. 

Too bad the only one who thinks he has a serious argument, is him. 


Needless to say, "Checking" him was another exercise in simplicity because of how easy it's been to put him in his place. As you're about to see.






Some day some day, sssoommeee day.. The "Marks" are gonna make it a challenge when they try and brace me... Some-day.


But some day, won't be today, that's for sure. 


And before this ass clown, or any other dipshit tries to say "Nobody lookls at your site". I'll go ahead and yank that argument from them before they can use it.


This shot was taken 90 seconds ago. Number of people who have visited my site in the last hour. 




Read it and weep. I always, get the last word. That's just the way, the world is.

Dusty Rhodes vs Killer Karl Kox (July 25th, 1978 Championship Wrestling From Florida)

Matt Cardona On His GCW Title Win: “I Am The Face Of GCW” (Whirls Finger And Says "Whoopie")

 


Going from WWE Reject to Impact to now "Being the face" of a garbage wrestling company. 


"wwwooowww, aren't we just SSOO impressed, NOT".

If people really think THIS, is some sort of 'great' accomplishment, then it shows you how shallow and clueless today's "Marks" really are. I mean seriously, who really wants to be 'the face' of a garbage wrestling company? 


When it comes to wrestlers who are truly serious about their careers? The answer is, nobody. 


And how has Game Changer Wrestling "Changed" the game? It hasn't and the only ones who can't seem to realize it? Are the people who own and run Game Changer Wrestling.

Kind of like Jeff Jarrett thinking he was a main event caliber wrestler and the only person who couldn't 'get it' that he wasn't, was Jeff Jarrett. Same thing.

So if Matt thinks being the 'face' of a garbage company is a HUGE accomplishment. Then he set the bar really low for himself when it comes to success now that he's away from the horrible WWE system. 



Pretty sad that his wife seems to be more over now that she's able to appear on shows, than he is. 


But, that's just the way, the world is.


Matt Cardona beat Nick Gage to become the new GCW World Champion last night at GCW Homecoming (Night One). This marks Cardona’s first World Championship in his 17-year wrestling career.

In a post-match interview, the former Zack Ryder admitted he feared a death match’s violence, but emphasized that the reward outweighed the risk.

“I’ve been scratching and clawing my entire f–king life, my entire f–king career,” Cardona said. “Did you really think I was scared of Nick Gage? Of course I was afraid of the violence, but I wasn’t afraid of the destruction that would happen in that ring. Look at my body. I’m covered in blood, I’m scarred up, but it was all worth it.


As for his future in Game Changer Wrestling, Cardona noted he isn’t going anywhere.

Sure he is, he's going to the next Impact Wrestling TV taping, LOL! These clowns now really should be careful what they say cause words have a way of making them, look like real fucking morons. 


“This isn’t a one-and-done. This isn’t a Lawrence Taylor at WrestleMania, first time, last time,” Cardona continued. “I am the face of this f–king company. I am ready to take GCW to new heights. I am the face of GCW, and a face with teeth.”


And THAT, considering what the company is, isn't something to be really proud of. 



https://twitter.com/i/status/1419350619702259714



GCW is also trying to hock a shirt celebrating the fans reaction to Matt "becoming The face" of their company. 







Wait a week and I bet you'll be able to get them on eBay for less than a five dollar bid. :)

Jeff Hardy was scheduled to do a meet and greet this Monday after RAW at recordBar in Kansas City, but the event has been cancelled due to Hardy testing positive for COVID-19.

The following statement was made by recordBar on its Facebook page:

“We regret to inform you that the event with Jeff Hardy to take place on Monday July 26, 2021 at recordBar in Kansas City, MO will have to be postponed to a later date. Jeff Hardy just tested positive for COVID this morning, and will have to quarantine for the next two weeks, and will not be participating in any live events for the next two weeks.

Hardy and WWE have yet to comment on this situation.

They better hurry the fuck up, and start fessing up.

Jim Ross On Which AEW Star Is “The Closest Thing I’ve Seen To Stone Cold” - Gee, I WONDER Who THAT Could Be (Rolls Eyes)

 


WELL, The "Marks" are wrong again, and they now can thank "Good OL'" J. R. for it. 


For months and months AEW "Marks" on Facebook and YouTube have all whined, cried and complained when I openly said over and over again that John Moxley was a bargain basement Stone Cold Steve Austin wannabe (Emphasize strongly on 'wannabe' ). I was one of the very first people to outright call him "Stone Cold John Moxley and wouldn't you know? The "Marks" got all up in their oversensitive feelings about it. 

They called "Bullshit", claimed I "didn't know what I was talking about", and claimed I was just a "complaining WWE Fan", when i don't even watch WWE programming.


That right there, tells you how dumb, these AEW "Marks" are.


But Lo and behold? "Good Ol' " J.R. came out and said it himself. Said the very same thing I said, which now put everything the "Marks" have said to me to shame.


I wonder just how stupid, those "Marks" are feeling right about now (smiles).

So sorry there, "Marks" you once again are wrong and I as usual, am correct. I know it sucks that the "Marks" realize again, they really have no clue and that i as usual know what I'm talking about. BUT.. That's just the way, the world is. 


Some day the "Marks" will have to come to accept that.


So here it is, Jim Ross saying wat I've been saying all along. Kinda  hard to ignore my facts when the "Voice of Wrestling" says the same thing I do. 


Makes you go, HHMMMM.



“Stone Cold” Steve Austin is widely regarded as one of the greatest professional wrestlers in the history of the business. On the latest episode of the Grilling JR Podcast, AEW commentator Jim Ross spoke about which All Elite Wrestling superstar reminds him most of Austin. Ross was linked to Austin’s entire career as the main commentator during the Attitude Era and even had Austin inducted him in the WWE Hall of Fame.


“[Jon] Moxley is the closest thing I’ve seen in pro wrestling like Stone Cold, since Stone Cold,” Ross said. “Attitude, body english, facial expressions, legitimate intensity, absolutely phenomenal.”


AAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! maybe Ross better get his eyes checked because while Moxley does do the 'no selling' 100% he doesn't have the size to poull off being a stone cold, anything. They say imitation is the best form  of flattery.


WELL "Marks" not in this case. The sooner you can come to accept that the sooner you can stop looking so dumb when you try and brace me on this topic. 


You're gonna lose every time, that's just... The way the world is.

Why? Only a complete moron would think THAT, was a 'brilliant' idea. And only a complete idiot would think he'd have a chance of actually succeeding in getting it, and the other names of PPV's they've applied for and have no chance of getting. 

Maybe they're just doing it so they can get attention to themselves since they need to find a way to put asses in seats. 


Either way, chances are slim and none they're gonna get any of these. And deep down, they know it.

Thunder Rosa Leaves The NWA For AEW (And How That Was Allowed To Happen)

 


Thunder Rosa is officially All Elite. (Sarcastic "yay" added here)


AEW announced this afternoon that Rosa has signed with the company, welcoming her to the team.


I know that I'm one, of many fans who are thrilled with this because she was doing great with the NWA. And knowing how AEW botches everything they get it'll just be a matter of time before they botch her push or botch how they present her. 


When it happens, you can come to me and tell me I was right, again. I usually am when it comes to things like this. 


Rosa, who is also celebrating her 35th birthday today, responded to the announcement and called the signing one of her biggest accomplishments.“Never in my life doubt that I would be where I want to be! Today one of the biggest accomplishments in my career has been announced! #lameramera Is FINALLY WHERE SHE BELONGS,” she wrote.


Rosa made her AEW debut back on the September 2, 2020 Dynamite show, while still the NWA World Women’s Champion. She defeated Serena Deeb that night, and then would lose to then-AEW Women’s World Champion Hikaru Shida at All Out just three days later. She has continued to work for AEW and the NWA since then, while also making a few indie appearances. Rosa appeared at Impact Wrestling’s Slammiversary event this past Sunday for a “one-shot deal” appearance, as the surprise opponent for Knockouts Champion Deonna Purrazzo, who retained. Rosa had been with the NWA since October 2019. She won the World Women’s Title from Allysin Kay at the Hard Times 2020 pay-per-view, becoming the first-ever Mexican born wrestler to win the strap. She then dropped the title to Serena Deeb back on October 27, 2020 at a UWN/NWA Primetime Live event, holding the title for 277 days. Rosa indicated earlier this year that she was looking forward to becoming a free agent in 2022, and that she was under contract to the NWA through the end of this year. 




Thunder Rosa was able to sign with AEW after a buyout was reportedly orchestrated with the NWA. The news wasn’t a total shock as Rosa has been working with AEW, but the fact that she was able to sign with the company was a surprise because her NWA contract ran through the year. We noted before that Rosa had talked about being excited over her free agency in 2022, and that her NWA contract ran through the end of this year.


In essence a buyout of Rosa’s NWA contract was worked out. There’s no word yet on specifics of the buyout, but we will keep you updated. Rosa reportedly requested her NWA release as far back as 2020, but that was rejected at the time.

It was also noted that AEW officials, especially boss Tony Khan, are very careful about not tampering with contracts. AEW reportedly wanted to play by the book with the Rosa – NWA situation. It’s been reported in the past that Khan and NWA owner Billy Corgan have often worked together directly, but it remains to be seen if they personally handled the Rosa deal.

Rosa defeated KiLynn King on this week’s AEW Dark episode. She also worked Wednesday’s Elevation tapings in Garland, TX, for a match that will air next Monday night. Her local opponent has not been identified yet.


Let's hope that AEW doesn't fuck it up like they have with 90% of the other talent they have and fucked up.


Anyone wanna take any bets I'll be correct that AEW will fuck it up? I'll GLADLY, take your money. That's how good AEW is at fucking things up.

Mark Henry On What Areas AEW Can Improve Upon (But Is Too Scared To State The Obvious, It Seems)

 




Does he admit that their product is more like "WWE Lite" in many aspects? Does he acknowledge that AEW could improve on their illogical booking, the 'no selling' that 90% of their roster does, or how the product as a whole just sucks?

The answer of course will be no.


He sees it just as many many other fans see it but like Jim Ross, Chris Jericho, Tully Blanchard, Jake Roberts, Arn Anderson, Dean Malenko and Jerry Lynn.. They're just there to milk the "Money Mark" Tony Khan for a paycheck and don't have the balls to tell Khan the truth. 

God forbid if you were to upset the oversensitive "Money Mark" by telling him the owner of the company that he shouldn't be writing a booking a fucking thing, and that the guys he has as EVP's shouldn't even be trying to book a fucking thing because they have no clue how to really do it. As long as the checks keep clearing, fuck it, eh?


Yeah, God forbid, someone could actually scrape up the balls to do it. 


So the following is what you get, Henry toeing the company line cause he's getting a paycheck from them to pretty much, do nothing. 



In an appearance on the Battleground Podcast, AEW’s Mark Henry was asked what areas AEW could look to improve in as the company continues to grow. Henry went with his usual answers; strengthening media outreach and giving back to the community.

“We have to do more of this,” Henry said, referring to the podcast. “Marketing and creating relationships with the media. Not just the big media but the grassroots media, podcasts, companies that are interesting in pro wrestling, not only to market, but just fans. And community involvement. We will be reaching out to people who are terminally ill, as I will today on Twitter after I get through talking to you guys.

“We’re going to go to the Boys and Girls clubs in the communities that we go to. The Special Olympics, Wounded Warriors and different things that deal with our military. There’s something coming up in Jacksonville where the police officers that train the K9’s, we’re going to go and pick up those guys. So it’s like, we’re going to touch everything we can in the communities we go to, to let people know we’re not just trying to take. We’re trying to give as well.”


Prior to joining AEW, Henry had spent his entire twenty plus year career working for the WWE. Asked if he was happy that was the only place he wrestled or if he would’ve liked to have branched out more, Henry had a surprising answer.

“I wish that I could’ve spent a little more time working in Japan and working in Mexico,” Henry said. “But I traveled all over the world. I went to those places, it just wasn’t for an extended amount of time. You go into Japan for two days and you work a couple of places. Yokohama, Tokyo, get back on the plane, come home. We did Monterrey, we did Mexico City, we did Pachuca, we did Puerto Rico, we did the Dominican Republic. We would go up to Canada and do every province. There was no place left untouched. Now I want to do that with AEW.”


Henry was also asked about AEW’s partnerships with other companies like Impact Wrestling, NWA, AAA and New Japan. Focusing more on AEW’s crossover with Impact, Henry voiced his approval of AEW working with other promotions.

“I thought ‘what a novel concept,”‘ Henry said of the idea. “Give the fans what they want and not have it be one sided. And I think that, coming up, it’s going to be really interesting to see a relationship between Jay White and Kenny Omega, what’s going to happen. Jay pretty much ran Kenny out of the Bullet Club, out of Japan. And now here they are back in America, where people can see them, on a week to week basis in Impact. It’s going to be good, it’s going to be good for pro wrestling.”


This led to Henry being asked if a potential supershow between AEW and other companies would be a good idea. For right now, Henry feels it isn’t necessary due to AEW already using talent from other promotions.


“I think AEW is doing it on its own,” Henry said. “We don’t really need anybody else to do that. It’s cool to have the Forbidden Door and to be able to work with Impact and (NWA) Power. It’s more organized than something that’s a collective. I don’t necessarily think that it’s needed because we’re already doing it.”
