I didn’t even know it was gone in the first place.
Virgil’s in pretty rough shape too apparently, |

Ric Flair is trying to wrestle again, which is a horrible idea for a variety of reasons.
But anyway, there are rumors making the rounds that someone will be booking a Ric Flair & FTR vs. Rock n Roll Express and Kerry Morton match as part of the Express' retirement tour. |

That's part of the reason why I think MJF won't go to WWE... he wants to live the gimmick, and I can't see WWE being happy with letting him be a genuine jerk to people at public appearances, swearing at little girls, etc....

Considering how layered and insincere MJF's character is, he might brush it off as him pretending to be an idea WWE superstar or something. Being so over the top that it becomes obvious.

Joe Black flips a guys hat and the dipshit decided it’d be a good idea to headbutt him.

Steve Blackman started surprisingly early.
If he could have been around just a few years later as internet culture really took over, he would have gotten over as a meme. |

Eh, it could be a badge of honor. Or he could just dial it back and insult the kids’ teachers, parents, local sports teams, etc. Him being in character all the time has helped get him over as a package in AEW and that’s been his audition. When he gets to the WWE he wouldn’t necessarily be looking to keep it going as much as he is now. Or maybe they want him to and that’s part of the appeal?

I was just thinking about the talent roster available to Freddie Prinze, Jr. re: his planned wrestling company. A name that crossed my mind was Rene Dupree, for whatever reason. The dude is only 38 years old.
Freddie’s ideas seem too “sports entertainment” for me. I think his heart’s in the right place, but so is Tony Khan’s. I do hope something shakes out of this though. |

For a second I thought he looked like Shane McMahon. Then I remembered SummerSlam ‘00 and Blackman being hot for a minute.

I hate to be a jerk, but Virgil wrote this:
Quote:
WWE banned chairshots to the head in around 2010, and the last one does was during Mania 27 with HHH/Undertaker, and they were fined for doing so. Virgil was not working in WWE during the timeframe where WWE did utilize unprotected chair shots. The situation Virgil is in sucks, but this is exactly why wrestlers who should receive help do not, because of the ones who wrongfully try to lay the blame on WWE ruin it. |

I think of wrestlers who might want a SAG membership and John Morrison and Bray Wyatt spring to mind. That gives them two more upper-card guys. Maybe you could bring in JoJo, Erick Rowan and Bo Dallas as part of a package with Bray? If you could lock The Briscoes in, that might give you leverage to sign FTR when their deals are up for next year. Sign Tessa Blanchard and pray that she’s good. Morrison would give you access to Taya Valkyrie. Melina could come in as Morrison’s crazy ex. You could maybe make a sneaky play for someone like Trish Stratus to be a non-wrestling figurehead for a bit before getting back in the ring. Scour the world for not only the best indy talent, but also try and lock up Gerry Brisco and/or Jim Ross to scout college athletes for you to put into developmental (something AEW should have done). With the combination of some stars, Freddie’s connections you might be able to land something on the CW Network. Maybe. That’s optimistic. But you should be making those strategic moves now. |

Lol come on Virgil is an honest, upstanding guy! it's not like Virgil is the kind of shady wrestler who would do something like book Ted Dibiase with indy promotions without him knowing it to make more money without giving a fuck that it makes Ted look bad for "no showing"

I was really confused for a few minutes there thinking Virgil was linking to chairshots to colon cancer. Didn’t realise he also had had 2 strokes and dementia.

given that the chairshots he took were closer to his ass than his head, he'd have a better chance of linking them to his colon cancer than his strokes or dementia.

I watched this after I watched Darby / Jeff from Dynamite and the bump Dragunov took was the worst. He's an absolute madman. But what a great match.
