Wonder how Vince of the past would feel about current Vince in regards to today's WWE becoming a big haven for older talent hogging up the spotlight.
The stat about this year's Royal Rumble breaking the all-time record for oldest average age probably would have been an eye popper for past Vince. |

Jason Jordan and Tyson Kidd have both been denied the chance to return multiple times. Although in the case of the latter I'm relieved because his original injuries were so bad that a simple fender bender could've left him in a wheelchair. I'd have a hard time watching him wrestle again and not cringing at every bump. |

Don't think I've ever seen a dropkick transition into a moonsault before. |

Ring of Honor and Sinclair are currently facing a lawsuit from former ROH wrestler Kelly Klein over allegations of discrimination, harassment, unpaid royalties, and unsafe work environment conditions during her time with the company.
Besides ROH officials, Jay Lethal was also named in her lawsuit over allegations of him committing sexual harassment towards her and other female wrestlers in the company. Quote:

Even owens hit the f5 better than Brock, though not sure if Lesnar would be a fan of the name they gave it. Presumably that guy kicked out after all that as well. |

I just wanted to say a few things on Question Mark (R.I.P.) I didn't watch much of his stuff as Jocephus, though he played a fairly major role in the NWA early on in the revival (He injured Tim Storm's Ribs, allowing Nick Aldis to win the title).
But Question Mark proved that everything that's old is new again. It was a masked gimmick that borrowed more from the more traditional American masked men than Lucha Libre. The American masked gimmicks usually fell into 3 categories: 1. A character in and of itself (See: Destroyer, Grappler, Masked Superstar), 2. A regular star that everyone knew was a regular star and the mask was half the fun of it (See: the Bullet, Stagger Lee, The Midnight Rider) 3. A way for a job guy to get a second payday (See: Any number of Executioners, the Galaxians, etc.) Question Mark started off as the second group (everyone knew it was Jocephus) that surprisingly became a star in his own right. Nothing about it should have worked, but it was a perfect fit for NWA and it stood out and the charisma sold it. It was both an Ironic and an Unironic thing. Last two wrestling T-shirts I bought were the "Uncle Tony's Waffles and Tire Irons" shirt (I made it a work meme) and the "Kara-taaaaaaaaaaay" shirt. Had the Pandemic not hit, he may have ended up as National Heavyweight Champion. Rest Easy Joseph. You had one hell of a run. |

According to the Observer, the NWA is currently expected to make a big announcement soon and its related to why all of their content was suddenly removed from Youtube.
Meltzer mentioned that this upcoming announcement is actually something good for the company and not a negative one based on what he's been told about it. Quote:

He didn't specify.
Probably nobody major if I had to guess or else something about it would have been teased or leaked about beforehand in the sheets. Quote:

Randomly can't stop thinking about that time that The Ryback was described by either some commentator, some other rassler, or by The Ryback himself as "master of the Feed Me More".....
