Turns out the March 11th episode of NXT won't be taking place at TNA/Impact's old home in Universal Studios as was speculated but instead at WWE's Performance Center.
Quote:
The rumored Universal Studios location did come with the potential risk of them not filling up the venue due to the short time for ticket sales and NXT struggling with house show attendance in Florida in recent months. |

Oh.
Isn't the Performance Center sort of a giant gym (minus bleachers)? That might look super indie. |

Yeah. If NXT has been getting complaints about Full Sail looking "low rent" then the PC is going to be just as bad or even worse by comparison.
Like maybe "indie event at a warehouse" tier in terms of setting depending on how WWE configures the place. Although on the bright side, NXT could also pull off a WCW-style World War 3 Battle Royale match because of the gym's current layout. |

Trying to think right now about who Kofi Kingston beat for the title last WM and for the life of me, I just can't think of who it was......

Just finished the Von Erich section. Holy shit, what a section. I highly suggest everyone interested in the Von Erich to give at least that part a listen. So great. I've been pimping this podcast for years. Between the Sheets is so good. Plus, Beau James being on the show makes it that much better. https://www.listennotes.com/podcasts...4-U4dD7bBVIlj/ |

Apparently the person who inspired the name for Vince McMahon's first wrestling-related company, Titan Sports Inc, passed away on Wednesday.
Vince would later use Titan Sports to purchase WWF from his father and then years later renamed it to WWF making them the same company instead of separate ones. Quote:

There would be some very interesting Vince stories should he ever write a(n honest) book. If the XFL is anywhere near successful, that would be a perfect time.

Sean Mooney's podcast has been quietly one of the better podcasts lately. Episodes usually run an hour to an hour and a half. He has different guests that you don't see on other shows. Good stuff.

Kind of hope WWE has the guys talking shit about Goldberg be weekly opponents for him in a short run. There's no harm in having Tyler Breeze killed in a few seconds and sent packing back to obscurity.

Bray Wyatt is having a sook on Twitter apparently. Wrestlers are almost as bad as wrestling fans.

Noid, if you had to describe your own wrestling fandom, would you consider yourself a cool wrestling fan or an insufferable wrestling fan?

I barely consider myself a wrestling fan these days, but if I had to go into it: I'm cool by wrestling fan standards. I get invited lots of places, get laid, people seem to respect my views and want to be around me. I wouldn't get along with most AEW fans in a social setting without tempering my personality to be more their level and flow. I don't do that on here, because I don't mind being obnoxious as fuck about something I am passionate about. I'm sure most wrestling fans find me insufferable. I tend to form my views based on data and what I think is good taste and informed opinions. That is why when I criticize something it rubs people the wrong way -- it rankles them because they know I've got a good fucking point >90% of the time and it challenges their taste.

Seems WWE is currently going after The Revival's trademark filings based on recent trademarks filed by the company.
One of the trademarks being opposed is the Revival's "No Flips, Just Fists" phrase although WWE's filing doesn't have the comma included. Quote:

When I saw that The Revival weren't in that giant cluster of a Chamber, I assumed that WWE had given up on trying to convince them to stay.

Not what I said. I said by wrestling fan standards. There are no cool wrestling fans. There seems to be a need to put words into people’s mouths around here. Looking at the crowd shots of AEW fans, they’re a certain type of person for the most part. They’re absolutely valid, but they’re not exactly the sort of people I see in my social groups. Maybe they all have winning personalities? Good for them if they do.
If you ask an honest question, you’ll get an honest answer. |

Better Superman Punch than the one Roman Reigns spams during matches. What helps is that OC's motion and the camera cut made it look a lot more impactful than the goofy way its done in WWE. |

Holy shit, you're right! I don't know why WWE is wasting their time with that phoney Roman Reigns. They should get rid of him and pay Tony Khan $3 million to get Orange Cassidy out of his AEW contract so he can be the one to beat Goldberg. That way they can actually make a new star.

And while we are at it, might as well have Orange Cassidy replace you at TPWW since you've been annoying as hell in recent weeks. |

Nah, you can stay.
I’m not easily annoyed. What I find annoying I find really annoying though. Wrestling without logic has been annoying me lately, as has the hypocrisy of fans. People are allowed to be biased — I do get that. It doesn’t mean I have to like it and can’t point it out though. Roman Reigns is not a guy I associate with “spamming moves” in this era. |

It's too bad that they can't get Clint Bobski back. But if the timeframe of season 3 is legit, they've hopefully found an opponent for Debbie by now. And for some reason, I wonder if they'll have gimmicks akin to "Making A Difference" Savio Vega, Skinner, and Hakushi. And more importantly, will this mean the return of Porkchop Jones? |
