Reminds me of something Lance Storm pointed out on Twitter

They have Naomi's next defense set for Summerslam well over a month from now, but yet earlier this year stripped her of that same title because she was going to be out for less time.

And how many days were there between Brock winning the Universal Title and his defense at Ballz?

97 to be exact. Which is still nothing compared to the 4 months in 2014-15 where Brock didn't defend the WWE title

guys I figured out how to fix everything

Have Roman admit he can't beat Braun

he turns to the one guy who knows how to

the return of ROMAN AND BRAY BEST TAG TEAM

Kalisto

I actually would have no problem with a Roman and Kalisto tag team. It would be an interesting take on the Batista and Rey type of situation

"YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO BE MY CHEW TOY!"
---

I want a Superman Spear where he jumps through the air and hurls Kalisto at them like a javelin.

Paige issued the following statement on Twitter regarding the Orlando airport incident with Alberto El Patron:


"Alberto didn't want me to say full story because he didn't want people to know and I didn't want people to know that I threw a drink on him. But the full story is. I had a phone call saying my uncle is in a bad way. I'm crying outside the restaurant. I go in, alberto is hugging me. I'm a little sensitive and we start bickering about something so small. I say I'm leaving and he says something that I won't write on here but it wasn't nice and I, even though I shouldn't have done it. I threw a drink in his face because I was so angry. Again. Shouldn't have done it. It was in front of a lot of people. I walk out. He follows me a few seconds later and gets the cops and security and a crazy lady decides to leave whatever she's doing to follow us and invade our privacy in the completely low way. Only low life people would do.

Anyways. It was ME who was being held for battery charges because I threw a drink on him. No. he never touched me and no I never hit him with a glass 3 times like the internet in all their glory is making out. Its completely ridiculous how one story can spiral out of control. Oh and guess what internet. He smelt like beer BECAUSE I THREW A BEER ON HIM. Nothing more. Nothing less. No one got arrested. There's no mug shots. There's no charges. Nothing. The horrible, disgusting human being of lady decided she wanted to make money out of our misfortune. I wish, WISH people would give us the privacy we deserve. I know we won't get it. But I WISH that would happen.

And if you listen to that stupid audio. You will hear him saying he's pressing charges on ME. We all say stuff when we are mad.

That's all I will say about the airport situation. Again. Thanks for the privacy at this time."

So she says she threw water on him in the audio, not beer.

This girl is never going to escape this with this attitude. "We all say stuff when we are mad." Fucking what?
---

The Big Dawg

and his little chiuauah

however you spell that
---

Paige is literally going the "it was actually all my fault" route that most abused people do.

How much longer until we get "he hits me because I deserve it"?
---

Speaking of the 7/12 tapings, one person there noted to us a strange almost backfire of sorts revolving around Mauro Ranallo. At the tapings, the crowd was mostly quiet again. We’re told in some places if fans started to make noise, other fans would tell them to be quiet because the building is so small and Ranallo talks so loud that if there’s no crowd noise, you can hear the commentary, and a lot of the live fans want to hear the commentary
---

Well that explains why the last two weeks have had dead crowds.
---

That is by far the dumbest thing I have ever heard. So they want people to be quiet, but not when they want to chant "One Two Sweet!"

Why go to a show and not make noise and get into it? Jesus.

It sounds like yet another RAW star is having issues with his colleagues behind-the-scenes. According to Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Big Cass has garnered heat with the majority of the WWE locker room. As previously noted, Cass' now-former partner Enzo Amore isn't winning over his WWE peers either.

According to Meltzer, Cass' heat stems from sharing his views on politics. Cass is said to be a strong supporter of Donald Trump, which is not a view shared by many in the WWE locker room. Despite the negative feelings towards Cass, he reportedly doesn't have nearly as much heat on him as Enzo does.

Former WWE CEO Linda McMahon is a part of the Trump Administration, so Cass' views may not be seen as a negative thing by the McMahons.

Not sure if I'm putting this is the right topic.
---

The Enzo heat is apparently insane. He got kicked off the tour bus and has to dress in a separate dressing room like old school Miz.
---

Why?
---

ScareChan posted...

Why?

No one knows but apparently one of his lines "my real life is better than my fantasy life" is a shoot saying his home in Los Angeles (aka his non-wrestling life) is better than his "fantasy" of being a wrestler.

Also, to no ones surprise, he's upset about the break up and recognizes his limited future as a singles competitor.
---

"You think I was intae ye? You must be stupae as ye look"

LOL.

That match felt oddly satisfying.

205L always has great SETTLERS. (i.e. Kendrick/Tozawa not a million years ago).
---

Aren't we ignoring the fact that Fox dumped him first? And humiliated him the second Swann gave her attention?
---

Apparently it was locker room leader Roman Reigns who kicked Enzo off the bus which... man. When Roman is the most veteran guy there, you have utterly failed to make stars.

Nothing she has done is anywhere near as bad as "Alicia Fo-...*drops mic*"

What's the betting Noam finds a boiling rabbit on the stove (stuffed toy probably) or his house aflame after this?

Respect the big dog! He's been here since FCW!
---

Reminds me of the time one of the crews was overseas and realized Kelly Kelly was the most tenured veteran on the bus besides Cena
---

That begs the question. Who do you think in WWE has more authority in locker room shenanigans: an older veteran who was in WWE in spurts, left for other jobs but comes back recently (say Hardyz), or a longer tenured, yet younger person who never left (Miz/Ziggler/etc.)?
---

Oh the Hardys for sure IF they want to be.
---

Would the same be true for people like Styles or Joe, with way more wrestling background, but little WWE experience?
---

I would imagine there's a period of adjustment. You can't just walk in and start weighing in on every issue like you're the top guy.
---

What about long time veteran headliners from outside wwe like nakamura, aj styles and Samoa joe?

Say omega and okada signed for WWE, would they have to carry Miz and Zigglers bags?
---

Given the wrestling culture, you never know what stupid shit sets certain people off. I would hate that.
---

I believe the young bucks were on a shitlist for not sucking up to Booker t.
---

I'm trying to imagine a world where only WWE tenure matters, and Dana Brooke is bossing around Nakamura
---

Now who bosses Brock around when he bothers to turn up for the superheavyweight paycheck?

Uh.....what exactly are you not understanding?

Haven't heard whatever audio because I literally don't care about other people's private lives, but it's pretty clear that she's saying that Alberto wanted to press charges on her when his adrenaline was pumping in the moment but thought better of it when he calmed down.

I see it all the time.
---

Well, this whole argument started when Paige got news about her dying uncle and was upset, Del Rio was getting annoyed by something, and then he told her that he hopes her uncle dies. And that when he was also angry after having water thrown into his face, he called officers to arrest her for assault.

I mean, I guess some people say things when they're mad, but usually well-adjusted people don't tell people they hope beloved family members die and try to get them arrested. And Paige being incapable of understanding that and taking a second to go "Oh hey, this guy is probably doing more than just saying stuff when he's mad." It's worth noting that her brothers say Del Rio physically abuse her and that Meltzer has seen pictures of bruises on her (and apparently on Del Rio too).

The answer was Chris Jericho, apparently.
---

i stand by saying that if his 20+ career wasn't enough, the fact that he stood up to Lesnar and was willing to fight the guy over the dangerous finish Lesnar/Orton had is enough to put him in GOAT status.
---

I still think it's a bit funny that he jumped to the conclusion that Brock took liberties with Randy over the much more plausible explanation that Vince is a psychopath and ordered it
---

The bigger question is how did Jericho of all people punk out both Brock and Goldberg? I'm not sure about Goldberg's training back in WCW, but he's definitely got martial arts background or at least a heavy interest in it. I've never heard Jericho have anything like that.
---

Goldberg is a beaten down retired football player

There's a reason he can't do long matches

Jericho's been to some version of the Dungeon and also the New Japan Dojo. He can hold his own
---

With Brock, I think Jericho got a bit of a jump on him RIGHT after a match and then Brock regained control fairly easily.

Well when he got the Undertaker's yard he took his role as locker room leader
---

Also Goldberg was trained at the WCW Power Plant. They were all about training your physique, not your talent.

It was a rough school but it was really more strength and conditioning rough than "you're gonna get beat up" rough.

And I'm sure you've noticed the boatloads of great young stars they produced in the late '90s to counter the Attitude Era
---

So who does everyone want for the Mae Young Classic?

Out of my minimal exposure with all these girls, my choices are Kairi Hojo, Toni Storm, and Candice LeRae.
---

I want Sane to win.
---

A surprising amount of women I know in there

In my heart it's hard to root against Abbey Laith because of my CHIKARA fanboyism
---

Quedtion: why do people want Kurt's secret to be Stephanie. Logic and continuity be damned, it means she's back on TV.
---

When is the MYC going to be shown



...oh god May Young Classic is abbreviated MYC....

this is going to be a doozy

Keep an eye on Dakota Kai. I would say Nixon Newell as well, but apparently she's injured and going to miss it, which is a shame given that she might have the most star potential in the whole tournament.

I'm expecting a Storm/Kairi final with Storm winning.
