    This is more WWE talk than we've ever done, so this is a good one to listen to if you don't care about me rambling on about New Japan for an hour.

      I realize that's hockey, but it reminds me of a live taping of Impact!

            Honky Tonk Man cancelled on PWS. PWS posted the text messages.

              So apparently TNA doesn't seem too confident in reaching a long-term contract extension with AJ Styles.

                I'd like to see AJ freelance at this stage of his career.

                He'd be high priced, but could really add something to a somewhat dry indie scene that was essentially raped by the WWE the last two years. I think he could have really cool, fresh matches with Devitt, Ibushi, and others in New Japan (actually, he could probably go heavyweight and face the Nakamura's & Tanahashi's. Tanahashi/Styles could be fantastic).

                  More mookie work.

                  So what changed with the third hour since September?

                  Blacklist started up on ABC in 9/23 at 10pm eastern.

                  Daniel Bryan was featured heavily in hour three post SummerSlam, and during Survivor Series build. Didn't research the segments, but going off of memory he was third hour for a long period after SummerSlam, and for the entire Survivor Series build with Shield, Punk, etc.

                  Just putting it out there. He never drew ratings or PPV from the jump. Not saying it's all on him (it isn't), but it's still a fact.

                      BIG STAR!!

                      You can thank this post, just as an acknowledgment that Larry was right on the money with this shit from the jump.

                      The minute Triple H Pedigreed Daniel Bryan he was killed dead.

                              Couldn't be a better service. Hulu/Netflix style, onDemand type shit. App on all the major devices. Profit.

                              Gotta keep it real, one of the better forward thinking things they've done if they go this route.

                              At 9.99 or 11.99 per month, I'm in as soon as its a available.

                              Once they start getting their on PPV library ondemand, PLUS the content from every library they own.



                              It'll be exactly what it should of been all along.

                              They can still do dumb shit like Legends House and post it similar to the way Netflix does...all at once.

                                Absolutely. Not sure if stockholders will be happy as they probably had visions of enormous rights fees but I think that will come in due time with Raw and Smackdown. For network delivery, this is the best possible option. Kudos to them.
