He still looks like an old lady in a one piece swimsuit

 

[LiquidLarry2GhostWF]

So, he's Sami Callihan?

laff.

 

[FedEx227]

The one guy I almost wish they did change his gimmick. Then again, I guess he's a niche they don't really have, just don't like the guy...

 

[SuperKevin]

Bring back Joey Splashwater

and this

That list, at least to me, proves how successful VKM has been. Why? Because most people may have a list like that of one or two things. He's had five terrible ideas that he's used his platforms to push, but still makes himself plenty of money and can afford to try even more ideas, whether smart or stupid.

As for Hogan, I am not sure how you fix that, hell, even explain it. That's beyond embarrassing. I didn't think even TNA could make that mistake, I thought they knew they were letting Sting go and were going to come back saying that "TNA and Spike executives overrule the stip" or something like that. Then again, I should have known it was TNA and they would certainly mess it up.

Remember when Sami Callihan was really really fat?

So Impact can't even pay AJ Styles what he normally makes lol. Styles could make more in Japan or the Indies.

I was thinking about it the other day and realized that WWE does not have any wrestlers with the same first name

Active? Nope.

John Cena

AND

John "Bradshaw" Layfield.

 

[SuperKevin]

They always refer to him as JBL though to avoid the confusion

I think the "short term" deal they gave him was a good faith deal between both sides. TNA essentially saying "let us get some other guys off the books, and we will give you the money you want." They need AJ more than they need Hogan or Sting, that's for sure.

Good luck getting anything in Japan. Pretty dry outside New Japan right now for gaijins.

This has been policy for over a decade. You see, the fans are really stupid and we would get confused. Thus, William Regal. Gregory Helms.

 

[JimLeavy59]

Did they really stop the match for a nosebleed?

 

[EmpireWF]

Can't have blood. What would the children think?!?!

In two weeks kids will be playing GTA V.

 

[Ravin]

It looks like that arena is mostly blacked out. The upper deck looked to have the black sheet over the chairs. Maybe it was just the lighting, but it looked that way.

 

[ThomasTomasz]

Of course they try and position a one night only return for Edge on the first MNF game of the season. Would love to be watching, but I'll catch the highlights later.

 

[JimLeavy59]

Was AJ supposed to be the babyface after that? She had five women beating her up. My god that was a mess of a segment.

 

[ThomasTomasz]

EL LOCAL looking great in that RVD shirt

That's why when you talk shit the week before, you MAKE SURE you stay far the fuck away from whomever you pissed off the next week.

Unless you have back-up.

EVERY TIME The Rock shit-talked, he had back-up or he got his ass beat.

Now AJ's learned that lesson.
