2023 Pro Wrestling Thread

Forget Seth and Sami. THIS should've been the main event moment.

 

I was JUST about to post that. Cool moment.

Fun Raw. Helluva main event.

 

Adam Pearce gave it his best with the announcement, but it's a shame Regal is still fulfilling the remainder of his on-air exile for his release from AEW.

There's no one better for WAAAARGAAAMES!

And a Rhodes wrestling in WarGames? 110% lock Cody's going the distance and moonsaulting off the cage.

Presuming there's another match for SmackDown, who's it going to be? I can see a start of Knight, Cena, Owens for the faces and the three Bloodliners for the heels, but who would be #4 on each side?

 

Good for NXT to (theoretically) get the greater exposure. Will be interesting to see if the rumors of CW supposedly having interest in NWA fall apart -- and not just for the stunt NWA pulled recently.

 

Will be interesting to see if they stay on Tuesday. Probably wont be settled until they figure out what day Smackdown and Raw are on.

 

What was the stunt NWA pulled?

 

DAMN!

 

I don't watch it, but from what I've observed, NWA has gone from a nice, niche product when it had the likes of Ricky Starks, Nick Aldis and LA Knight, to basically falling off a cliff with Billy Corgan going unchecked and making Tony Khan look measured (world champion Tyrus, anyone?).

 

Yes, Farooq?

 

They had a red carpet premiere of The Iron Claw last night. Kevin Von Erich was there, and had a reunion with 97-year-old Bill Mercer.

 

Vince McMahon is dumping 8.4 million shares of TKO, the holding company that owns WWE and UFC. Expected profit of $700 million.

Dirt sheets all wondering if he’s bailing out.
