yeah, they’re pulling a Nash/Mysterio injury angle with Rhea and Lynch…tho one rumor going around is she might be a real mommy soon …
Speaking of preggers…
R-Truth almost had to have his leg amputated in 2022 after a post-surgical infection.
Dude’s literally got nine lives.
Looks like the New Era is a return to the old HHH era. Guy can’t stand not being the star of the show. If his body wasn’t ravaged by the effects of PEDs he’d get back in the ring again, and I wouldn’t be surprised if he does anyway.
Broken Matt Hardy returned to TNA at Rebellion tonight and attacked World Champion, Moose, after his match.
DELETE! DELETE!
Dixie Carter: “When they write the history books, they’ll call me the most hated wrestling promoter of all time.”
Vince: “Hold my beer.”
wow vince has become the slimeball everyone has said he was …
Tonight’s Dynamite ended with Jack Perry returning and beating down Tony Khan with the Elite’s help while Shahid watched in shock.
God damn it Tony why did you have to make yourself an onscreen character this never ever ends well
Isn’t this what he was aiming for from day one? You don’t burn $millions of your father’s money on a business you know nothing about just to stand there like a potted plant.
It was only a matter of time.
The Ghost of Bad Angles Past rears its ugly head.
Vince Russo…
David Arquette…

Dolph Ziggler is now a double world champion.
Youtuber Steve Shives has a fun video about one of my favorite abstract concepts in wrestling, the lineal world championship - I.e. “What if the world title had been on the line in every singles match the champ competed in, beginning from when the concept of a world wrestling championship originated in the late 19th century and carrying on to today?”
Sigh… OK, maybe Cornette was right about Kenny Omega after all.
He delivered a promo that made it sound like he could never wrestle again because any blow to his midsection would kill him. Then he calls out Okada and tells him he wants another match in two months, when he’s fully healed. Then Jack Perry brings in a chair and shoves it into Omega’s stomach. Oh, horrors. The Achilles Heel he just publicly announced. Then he’s taken away on a gurney and they stretch the angle over the beginning of Rampage, where he gets attacked while being loaded into the ambulance. I couldn’t watch any more because my IQ was plunging into the negatives.
I’m not sure I agree. Omega is doing a Babyface 101 angle. Nothing wrong about that, it just comes down to execution. And let’s be honest - AEW sucks at execution 10 out of 9 times.
Yes, the angle was nothing new, and it’s a way to write Omega off for another couple months. Dusty Rhodes did it all the time when he was touring the NWA territories. Omega doesn’t have that type of appeal. He’s always been the alpha heel and it’s hard to buy him as a victim.
Wrestlemania is goin’ to Vegas, baby!
Notably, this edition will be taking place on Easter Sunday, which WWE usually avoids when booking Wrestlemania. It’s also 4/20, so there are high odds (snicker) of the entire stadium being a giant Wellness Policy violation.
(I REALLY hope they get RVD to make a guest appearance that day.)
That crowd in Lyon, France was freaking ELECTRIC for SmackDown and Backlash.
So, we’ve got ourselves eight matches in the King and Queen of the Ring tournaments on Monday. Wanna make some predictions?

- Kofi Kingston vs. Rey Mysterio
- Ricochet vs. Ilja Dragunov
- GUNTHER vs. Sheamus
Queen of the Ring:
- Zoey Stark vs. Ivy Nile
- Shayna Baszler vs. Zelina Vega
- Lyra Valkyria vs. Asuka
- Iyo Sky vs. Natalya
sad it was such a pedestrian show tho but I’m spoiled …
I managed to freeze the video after the Priest/Uso match to scan that QR Code, and it opens an audio file that sounds like a girl’s voice dubbed on an echo of her voice pitched an octave lower.
The url is https://wwe.me/44tjKSG?r=qr if you care to listen. It’s a Bray Wyattish cryptoid thing. Maybe he faked his death.
