2014 Pro Wrestling Thread

Take it easy, Francis.

 

That's almost two years old now ...

 

LOL you can tell how much attention I pay to professional wrestling. I just saw it linked and laughed, then popped it up here.

My apologies, I'll look closer before posting next time.

"My boobs are out" kinda made me want to post it.

 

Can't say I blame you. Haha

 

From the Oct. 27 Observer, not a whole ton this year:

- Oct. 30 should be a big day for the WWE, because they’ll be required to share subscription numbers for the Network again. They probably need a number close to 900k to be in range for the 1.1M average they need for 2015 to break even. They need around 1.4M to match the profit before they switch from PPV to the Network model.

- It’s believed that the rush to turn Orton babyface is because him as a heel to anchor house shows hasn’t been going well, and because of the popularity of the RKO vines.

- As of right now, Lesnar is not book until a few shows before the Royal Rumble. He’s not scheduled to defend at Survivor Series or TLC in December. However, he is still on the same per-date contract, so they could have him earlier than that if they want.

- Former UFC talent Matt Riddle is now training with ROH. He’s said to be a good athlete and has talent, but he had problems staying in UFC (positive tests for pot) and Bellator (no-showing a few dates).

- WWE has adopted a “zero tolerance” policy for domestic, child and sexual assault / abuse similar to the UFC and NFL.

- Mysterio is believed to be done with the WWE and waiting out his contract. AAA has shown him and Del Rio on camera, not seeming to care that they have non-competes, maybe given the cost it would take the WWE to try enforcing them.

Let's see how "zero tolerant" they are if it's one of their main eventers.

 

Its hard for me to bo-lieve they won't have the champion at a "big 4" ppv even though Survivor Series is a distant 4 and might be behind MOTB these days

 

Do you think the NXT title should be defended at WWE Pay Per Views? Not saying every month but more so from time to time?

 

If there's room on the card I could get into a NXT match. If its bumping guys that should probably have something to do that they can't figure out, like Bray this month and Cesaro a couple months ago, maybe that's not such a good thing.

Entertainment value would be good but giving creative an easy out for a match they don't have think too much about wouldn't be.

 

Cena and Orton up next. Which means Rollins and Ambrose go last. Good.
