    I get it. It's possible her situation really is that serious and her parents are willing to do anything to get it to stop and hope it makes things better

    Maybe, but still doesn't seem right. Plus her family is carny level 100, so I hesitate to give them the benefit of the doubt.

    it has to be really fucking awful to have your privacy violated like that. she's stupid for even putting that stuff out there in private, but her dad can't be in his right mind right now with what is going on.

    you are probably right. I'm just saying, if that was my daughter, I could absolutely see myself making that desperate public plea for compassion even though common sense dictates that it won't do any good

    Buy RoH, stick it on the network and keep it edgy. Still run PPVs. 3rd major brand.

    I don't think WWE has any desire to keep ROH as a promotion. Vince just wants the library for his guys he has now and to hand pick a few off the roster.

    One of my dad's friends had a kid who rode around Chicago on a moped. Slammed into the back of a parked truck he didn't see. Killed him immediately.

    Don't buy it for a second but I'd kill for half of those guys to show up on Smackdown of NXT. I know there are mixed opinions about the Bucks but them showing up on Smackdown would totally revive that division. Lethal and Cole could slot right in to the top part of that card with AJ. Dalton Castles was born to be NXT champion.

    Just like WWE kept ECW going it would come to no surprise if they would buy ROH and still let them run indefinitely.

    WWE needs promotions like TNA, ROH to be alive and running. Its essentially the minor league development system the WWE needs to produce stars.

    Look at the talent in WWE and NXT that have come from ROH and TNA. Its vital they keep them in business imho.

    wait Christopher Daniels was a thing back then?

    I mean I know he's been in the business forever, but I doubt he had the cache to be brought in with an angle like that

    figured you were talking about something from the 06-09 range

    It was back when he was doing the Fallen Angel gimmick. Story was written out but once Vince saw how small Daniels was, he nixed the idea.

    Interesting WM match rumor floating around

    I missed talking smack last week but apparently the Usos were on there begging for a match at mania.

    New rumor is that is the start of possibly setting up an Usos v Hardy's match at Mania

    Just caught up on Smackdown and Talking Smack.

    Good for the Uso's. I think you could turn them baby and just let them be them. The rapid fire promo and high energy without looking like the Samoan John Cenas will be great for them.

    Did notice for the first time that Jordan used the Angle Slam. It wasn't called that by the announce crew and it's probably because Cole doesn't even know the name of the move to feed it to Phil.

    Cana and Nikki were cringe worthy on Talking Smack.

    Don't understand why Vince makes every heel chicken shit. AJs second promo where he's afraid of Shane was just fucking retarded.

    I feel like Bray and Orton is going to be creepy as fuck at Mania. It's a little cheesey but I'm into it.

    Also get the Usos on the Mania card. And stop linking them to Roman...

    Anybody else a Busted Open fan? I can't listen when Bully is hosting. He only knows how to talk about three things: Motley Crue, putting himself over, and defending every decision WWE/ROH makes when LaGreca or a caller has valid criticism. Just because you enunciate and talk loud doesn't make your point any better man. Give me Larry Dallas 4 days a week instead.

    He's lost his mind.

    I mean Bret Hart is a huge mark for himself but at least he's a bonafide Hall of fame, Mania main eventer legend.

    Ryback is a midcard nobody.
