Cool, so now The Stephanie Revolution can be the frontrunner for bad publicity again?

What? It's fucking disgusting. Almost as bad as Rusev taking forever to build off Rusev Day (but WWE is trying. He was advertised on today's shop page at least).

Listen, all you keyboard warriors out there need to quit whining, and recognize what Moolah did for women in this industry. She was a cornerstone of Wrestlemania 1, and her Attitude Era run was a welcome change for a division that was at the time promoted on looks instead of talent. And who had more talent than Moolah, I mean come on, 26 years as WWE Womens Champion! She was obviously doing SOMETHING right.

Actually, Rosenberg was kinda, "I know the shit she's accused of, and it's pretty disgusting, but I won't qualify myself as anyone with credibility on the subject."

So it's not any of his business.

You really think they had it done already? Based on the quality of the AtG one, I figured it was made 10 minutes before the show.

On the January 14 IMPACT! tapings, following the gifting of the title to Josh Mathews by Matt Sydal, it was announced by the company's executive vice president Don Callis via Twitter that the company would be retiring the belt,[1] stating that there were too many championships in the company which were devaluing its top tier titles.


The new management really thought the round/judges system was really awful, and without that, there was no reason for the belts continued existence.

The last remnant of the Billy Corgan era, which at this point was 3 regime changes ago.

Someone set me straight on this.

I remember the Naturals being actually very good. Were they, or was I just way worse at evaluating talent back when they had their TNA run?

If the last two matches deliver this is probably the best New Japan Cup ever.

There were three near falls where I sort of believed Juice could win. I think the fact that they love upsets in the Cup helps with that, but it's pretty crazy considering I picked Tana to win the tournament from the outset and he was easily the favorite going into the semis.

They can't figure out how to do the "entrances sucks" gimmick properly. It's too bad because A) Dolph is the kind of guy who could do it and B) it's the kind of gimmick that could allow WWE to self-criticize in a way to build up the characters that are mostly flash without substance and provide them said substance.

He had this gimmick for a few months where he would come out doing a random other persons entrance and there never really was any good justification as to why. Thats why his music now starts with that dumb record scratch, because it would cut off the other music to get to his real entrance.

It was really awful.
