so i was interested in where conrad is from, but all i could find real quick is he is now located in huntsville, alabama. funny because one of my favorite accents is specifically birmingham, alabama.

WWE not making booking decisions with a future endgame in mind or putting other guys in a a position to step in when needed? Stunned I tell you.

The fact that the IC and US titles seemingly haven't been elevated at all is telling too.
But not at all surprising. |

Lol, putting the belts on Roman wasn’t a mistake.

I don’t think it’s the act of putting the belts on him that’s being called out, it’s the perceived lack of anything after.
Personally I don’t mind it. It breaks the cycle of someone gets a shot, screwy finish, rematch at the next big show. Also means Roman isn’t burning through contenders. They’re clearing lining up Riddle for a programme (albeit a loss) that he should come out of looking stronger, and Orton, and McIntyre has already announced his shot. They could be doing more with the undercard but HIAC has lined up to be a pretty solid card without a world title match. Seth/Cody blow off in the Cell is a worthy main event - and I like that there’s only one Cell match this time. The 6 person tag if quite unique for WWE. I’d question whether Ezekie/Owens is a “PPV worthy match” but it’s over with the crowd. Ali/Theory for the US Championship feels a bit flimsy but Ali is in front of his hometown, can’t see him getting the win but a chance to show what he can do. The womens triple threat should be a great match, not convinced they way they got to it did anybody any favours though. Corbin/Moss I can definitely take a pass on. Lashley/Omos III this time featuring MVP I can also do without. All in all it’s got enough “peaks and troughs” to be a decent show. Then we get Roman at MITB + 2 ladder matches, Roman/Orton at SummerSlam, and Roman/McIntyre at CATC. He’ll be on the Saudi show November 5th, and for as much as I’d like Survivor Series to be seen as a big show again, I’d probably give him the night off there. |

A “biopic” about Hulk Hogan’s life as told by Hulk Hogan would be so Goddamn good.

They’ve got plans for Roman, as you’ve laid out. The other major people will be in other major programs. Why would they hit a phantom panic switch and just throw everything in the air for a few obsessive nerds on the internet’s bad ideas? |

Rumors indicate that Cesaro is likely to return to the WWE. I need Cesaro vs. Gunther injected into my veins.

So WWE announced that Cody Rhodes has suffered an injury. He was pulled from a card but was still there and made the save to close the show. Dave Meltzer is reporting torn pec and that he might miss a year with a fully torn one. But Dave doesn’t have any WWE sources anymore. Probably him trying to dampen Cody, because I doubt they have Cody work with a torn pec.
Bryan Danielson has also reportedly suffered an injury that prevents him from being able to fly. This is from Sean Ross Sapp, who seems spotty a lot of the time, but does get some things right. Nothing has been confirmed about that. But an injury that prevents you from flying? I mean, unless he’s just worried about comfort, that sounds like a concussion, which isn’t good. |

I’m not up-to-date on my concussion advice. Thanks for that. Word going around is that it is a concussion. It’s possible that Danielson just chose not to fly with it for his own comfort (not that it would make it worse or anything), or because he follows archaic advice on concussions/has a bit of voodoo associated with them.

I've seen this a few times and I don't get the fuss about this one. It's 1982. Kayfabe was strong. There's probably a dozen other similar articles involving other wrestlers. |

It’s especially tame by Hogan story standards.
Doesn’t hold a candle to Harley Race literally setting the ring on fire and then asking Hogan for a job. |

You have a habit of getting caught saying something indefensibly stupid in one thread and then quickly trying to “get your heat back” in a different thread where the cloud of your last embarrassment isn’t looming as large.
Wanna talk about it? |
