The best part of this Twittet account is all the cool shit Regal did on these shows.

He's in my top 5 favorites.
His book is also phenomenal. Not sure if he has more than one now or not. Bought Ric Flair's book at the same time before the bookstores turned into dust. |

Don't like to see anyone lose a job - more releases rumored today for WWE - my guess could be *some* of the following:
Keith Lee Mia Yim Karrion Kross Scarlett Kevin Owens Cesaro Drake Maverick OTIS Akira Tozawa Dana Brooke Elias Tamina Nia Jaxon Ryker Ricochet |

That’s a pretty solid list you’ve got there. Oddly enough, of anyone that I think might be safe from it, it could be the guys like Akira Tozawa and Drake Maverick that add to that 24/7 mix. I don’t know why, but I can see Ricochet being safe too. Keith Lee is the big screamer to me. They’ve tried a couple of times (in their mind), and I don’t think they got anything out of him. They didn’t even use him two weeks consecutively did they? Elias not being drafted was a pretty big sign. And just because the company was high on you once doesn’t mean they’re going to stay that way. Can see him and Ryker being released, especially because they don’t seem to have any plans for them. I’ve had a feeling that Kushida and MSK from NXT could be on the chopping block for a while. Unless they just use Kushida for Main Event/205 Live/the 24/7 division. Because he apparently asked for another release, I can see them letting Gran Metalik go. Lince Dorado may or may not find himself attached to that. He seems “happier” to be there. I have no clue how Dana Brooke has survived this long, to be honest. I think the biggest “shocker” will be someone like Jeff Hardy or Sheamus. The first because he’s planning to leave anyway or they just don’t care if he does anymore. Sheamus just because of health issues and him maybe taking another role in the company. Sad to say, but I don’t Asuka is safe either. Nor Shelton Benjamin. Not this time. |

Perhaps a hint of an earlier than expected return? Note the hands appear to be just short of 🕑...maybe she'll be a surprise entrant in the women's Rumble? 🤷 |

The whole 'brand loyalty' is so silly a month after the draft
Just do RAW vs RAW and SD vs SD with a team of heels and faces based off people who are actually feuding on TV |

FFS.
“Team Raw” made up entirely of guys that have been on the brand 2 weeks, and that SD Women’s team is lacklustre. Fucking Aliyah, who hasn’t even been on TV yet? Where’s Toni Storm? Or is she supposed to be on Raw now? |

I have no clue why they don’t just do a face and a heel team from each show to go against the corresponding side. Gets more talent out there in a somewhat prominent role, which is what they are trying to do with these new rosters. Then you can do the teams facing each other on their home show and have feuds coming out of it.

I saw a bit about that but didn’t read the article. Is it going to jeopardise his career?

Does anyone else remember this/did this?
Before the internet, listed in the newspaper there was a free hotline you could call and then enter a 5 digit code to hear news/rumors about about a different subject. I used to call every Tuesday to hear wrestling rumors/scoops. I remember the guy had a deep voice but I can't remember his name. |

We had something like that in Canada called "Talking Yellow Book" They had a free wrestling hotline. Usually it was Cody Boyns reading off rumors and results. |

The problem is that the business side of wrestling is more exciting than the actual content these companies produce.
Wrestling’s to blame for wrestling’s problems. |

Wow, it started way before the 90s too, I found an article about it from October 1989...why isn't there a movie about this precursor to the internet out there?
