If they do in regards to punishing his daughter, then it just proves Ric's right about WWE and Triple H's friendship with him was never as close as he was led to believe for years.

I bet Ric drops this shit as soon as they put the title back on Charlotte. He's being petty af, that's all this is. Someone using his schtick got more popular than his daughter and got a push and now he's big mad about it.

Hell, Ric doesn't even own the trademark for the thing he is bitching about. He's filing for it now. That alone doesn't bode well for his chances of "winning" anything in the circumstance. And I have a feeling the USPTO is going to laugh his claim out of the office; people have been calling themselves "The Man" forever, way before him, and way after him. Everything in his own schtick was taken from someone else ffs.

Ric just wants another match. If she's going to be The Man she has to beat The Man.

In attempting to find some semblance of optimism - if they actually do a re-draft and neither USA nor FOX wants to cross-promote, we can avoid the nonsense “brand pride” storylines that crop up every November.

Ric Flair probably shouldn't have thrown all of his watches into spaghetti.

That seems to be where this dispute revolves around since he is claiming WWE is trying to get around having to pay him any royalties from those shirts. Since they refuse to listen to him, he's now trying to get legal ownership of "The Man" by using his other trademark as the basis. If he didn't have the "To be The Man" trademark, this would be similar to the Carlton dance ownership dispute and his chances of winning would be almost zero. |

It's business. I don't think it's being done maliciously. My guess is Ric is more in the hole than usual and this was a way he could maybe get some money.

According to The Wrap, the official reason for WWE's recent Creative shakeups was due to WWE feeling Smackdown wasn't at the quality level it needs to be before debuting on FOX and Eric Bischoff catching some backstage heat for being in charge of the botched Erick Rowan look-a-like reveal payoff.

Those dubbed in sfx of angle hitting taker with a wrench are pretty funny. Same sound every single time. |

Rollins and the nose have apparently unfollowed flair on twitter. Yes this is the type of shit that makes it as news these days...

Has the “Who attacked Roman?” angle been botched that badly?
I figured the thing with the doppelgänger was Bryan bringing in a scapegoat to turn the finger of blame away from Rowan before revealing he was behind it all along. Roman speared Bryan cos he knew he was full of shit. It’s only fucked if the are legit using it as a vehicle to push Rowan as a singles star. |

Yes and its mainly due to them stretching things out longer than it should have been because they can't make up their minds or stick to plans. They waited too long to start the feud and didn't want Bryan vs Reigns for SummerSlam. Then they decided to not have Bryan vs Reigns be at Clash which meant having to stretch out the big reveal for at least an extra month while doing a poor job with the swerves.
Whatever was meant to be the original follow up to the Rowan look-a-like reveal pretty much got tossed when Vince rewrite the script the following week. |

Do they talk about the early IC champs, or is it mostly newer stuff.

Was either John Pollock or someone else who mentioned the storyline really comes off as something being written week to week and not something that was planned out ahead of time. Like no real build up to Rowan snapping or his doppelgänger being just a swerve. |

Ronda Rousey might be completely done with wrestling since WWE recently moved her profile to the "Alumni" section.
They only do that for wrestlers who got released or retired.

I assumed it was botched horribly on day 1 when Roman no sold the scaffolding

I have this weird feeling that FOX wants Bryan and Charlotte to be babyfaces. Most people seem to think that Bryan is going to be behind the Rowan/Roman stuff, but I think the bigger twist would be Bryan not being behind it.

I actually would not mind a Bryan turn, since people love him and he’s so good at it. I get that people admire his work as a heel, but the natural thing is for him to be endearing.

Pity Sid never got a final run with wwe, that leg injury really sidelined him for far too long for any kind of a comeback, career pretty much ended in 2001. 3:03 that had to hurt. |
