Cities Placing Bids to Host WrestleMania 33
As cities are placing bids to host the show, Philadelphia is making a strong bid to host, with the plan to hold the show at Lincoln Financial Field and the Hall of Fame ceremony at the Wells Fargo Center. Orlando has also put in a bid to host the show again.

AJ Lee Update
AJ was originally scheduled to return from a neck injury on 1/21 but was removed from the advertising for that show, citing that she had not yet recovered from injury. She was even scheduled to be on RAW a few weeks ago and had an angle written for her to return but AJ said that she was not ready to return.

Ring of Honor iPPV Update
There is talk of cutting back on iPPV's due to frequent problems that result in refund requests, making the shows unprofitable. There is even some consideration given about just dropping the iPPV shows altogether due to Sinclair not wanting any money-losing events.

He's gonna come back smiling, FELLA! He's got a song in his heart and the luck of the Irish on his side!
ReplyDeleteIt'll be interesting because I didn't think he came into his own as a worker until he was a babyface. So hopefully that doesn't mean he's one of those guys who can't quite put it all together, when one's character is way more interesting on one side of the ledger but his ringwork is way better on the other side.
ReplyDeleteMan, I really don't like Stone Temple Pilots much. Whiny little douche for a lead singer they have.
ReplyDeleteSo if Phili gets it, snarkiest wrestlemania, hall of fame and raw after wm ever.
ReplyDeleteI feel like ROH needs iPPVs if they want to maintain a genuine interest in their product. When they briefly dropped the format last year, there were several shows I would have bought live, but lost interest in once the results were out. I can't imagine I'm alone in seeing it this way.
ReplyDeleteI admit I don't know much about IT, but I can't understand why they can't just fix whatever problems seem to plague every PPV they try to run. And why are they the only company that seems to have this problem? I've never had a problem with an Evolve or Dragon's Gate purchase.
Much like how you go on job duty after you win the IC/US title, didn't Sheamus do a ton of jobs after winning the KOTR that basically nullified him winning it in the first place.
ReplyDeleteLeaking the possibility of a Philly Mania to try and make the crowd behave themselves Sunday eh? Very clever, WWE!
ReplyDeleteI think Philly's smark cred is a bit overrated. It's mostly based on the fact that they cheered for untalented idiots getting thrown through flaming shards of glass in barbed wire rings like 80 years ago. Chicago and Brooklyn are miles ahead on the snark/smark charts.
ReplyDeleteSheamus coming back could be a good foil for Reigns.
ReplyDeleteSheamus as HHH's obnoxious enforcer and workout buddy is RIGHT THERE as a heel character and works on every level. I still have no idea why they've never used that, no matter how much Sheamus denies the relationship in real life.
ReplyDeleteHillbilly Jim runs their iPPVs.
ReplyDeleteI like that this comment was made in 2015, nearly 20 years after STP was relevant.
ReplyDeleteWouldn't be bad for a wrestlemania feud for him instead of title match
ReplyDeletePlus it could allow them to clear out dead weight like Kane and Big Show from the Authority.
ReplyDeleteThey're represented in the poll.
ReplyDeletehttp://client-cdn.crystalcommerce.com/photo/carteblanchehobbies/file/71d9a85078f411e3bb240b8523000493/large/dirty%20low%20blow%20ss2.jpg
ReplyDeleteUnderstood. Still funny because of how present it sounded.
ReplyDeleteSo if corporate kane gets kicked out of the authority, does he become 99%er kane?
ReplyDeleteAnd this baseball strike! Will it ever end???
ReplyDelete"And the winner of the Wrestlemania 33 bid is....
ReplyDeleteLafayette, Louisiana!"
Quietest. Wrestlemania. Ever.
Sheamus returns and dumps Reigns? Shit, might keep him face in Philly.
ReplyDeleteBrutus Beefcake just mentioned for the 47th time that he was booked as Hulk's brother back in the day. All 47 times had zero to do with the topic.
ReplyDeleteAJ Lee has a pain in the neck?
ReplyDeleteCue the Punk joke.
If we ever have a poll on sports headlines from the 90s, I may comment on that as well.
ReplyDeleteBack then he wore an onion on his belt... which was the style at the time...
ReplyDeleteHe becomes Retired Kane.
ReplyDeleteRelated, Jamm Swanson was so fucking awesome.
ReplyDeleteNah that would never happened
ReplyDeleteI think even the rest of STP hate Scott Weiland.
ReplyDeleteBelicheck press conference in 5 minutes.
ReplyDeleteClassic wrestling instead of fixing a problem its just best to run away and cut your own balls off. C'mon ROH fix the problems then run the iPPVs.
ReplyDeleteMan, I'd love to go see that band, but I'm meeting my girlfriend with the sun dress and combat boots at the TCBY in an hour.
ReplyDeleteWho's ready for Halloween? Rock Star Gary is! WCW Halloween Havoc 1994 review...for YOUR pleasure...on Scott's board! http://rspwfaq.boards.net/thread/222/rock-star-reflects-halloween-havoc Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteI want Bob Kraft to turn heel at the press conference and announce he was the one who deflated the balls, then cut a Hogan Bash at the Beach-style promo.
ReplyDelete"The first thing these people need to do is shut up if they wanna hear what I have to say! If it wasn't for me, Roger Goodell would still be fetching doughnuts for the suits in NYC!"
It's always the 90s on the BoD.
ReplyDeleteActually they do, but you're only getting part of the story...the DeLeo brothers are kind of assholeish themselves.
ReplyDeleteAnd Weiland was 'fired' a couple of years ago and replaced by Chester Bennington.
Random Trivia Of The Day: Jerry Seinfeld's father was poker buddies with Carlo Gambino.
ReplyDeleteCan I join in and link to my WCW Bash at the Beach 1997 ravishing recap? Of course I can brotha! http://www.rohworld.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=4315
ReplyDeleteSheamus is another guy like Orton, who's in a perpetual state of "ready to return, but ain't got shit for ya, so just chill at home."
ReplyDeleteI wonder which whiny little douche Mahn was referring to.
ReplyDeleteI love Hillbilly Jim dearly, but yes, that would explain a lot. I can see where the quality of a stream would be affected were a pig or an Uncle Elmer allowed to chew on the cables.
ReplyDeletelol this Beefcake shoot is hysterical. Apparently they're still selling hundreds of Beefcake merch and not giving him any money.
ReplyDeleteBut it's NOT on Scott's board! :(
ReplyDeleteWe don't take KINDLY to 1994 WCW Reviews around here!
ReplyDeleteWe only allow 1996 WCW Reviews!
I can hear Bayless having a 90s WCW related stroke from all the way across the Atlantic
ReplyDeleteThe Ballad of Ed Leslie
ReplyDeleteAnd the Stories No One Cared To Hear
Weiland.
ReplyDeleteThat shoot is a riot. Gets a lot better as it goes along
ReplyDeleteMike Enos and his leather vest FTW.
ReplyDeleteBest rhythm section of the 90s though.
ReplyDeleteWouldn't be a bad gig if they were raking in that guaranteed WCW cash.
ReplyDeleteActually, if past reports were accurate and still true, Orton's downside guarantee is enough to enjoy an extended, enforced vacation. Not so sure about Fella.
Too bad! You will receive a piledriver on a pumpkin for your insolence! >:D
ReplyDeleteYes.
ReplyDeleteAnd part 2 of the 32 page soliloquy of the WCW career of Mike Enos is coming.....soon!
It's so bad.
ReplyDeleteWeiland truly believes he is one of the most talented and fascinating artists to have ever graced our planet.
ReplyDeletedid he get hurt, he seemed to drop out of the wwf picture pretty abruptly?
ReplyDeleteIts so bad its good.
ReplyDeleteI think that he should shut up and have a sandwich.
ReplyDeleteThe anticipation is killing me!
ReplyDeleteJust another broken down delusional vet.
ReplyDeleteJamm is one of my favorite bit characters in just about anything ever. "Give me back that megaphone, it belongs to my aunt!"
ReplyDeleteWayne Bloom feels like an outcast. :(
ReplyDeleteAt least he is funny there. There are way worse WWE timelines than that one.
ReplyDeleteNot when it's the 80s.
ReplyDeleteAt one point, the dude asks Beefcake about Savage's and Liz's relationship in 89 and if they were still together at this point. Brutus turns dead serious and says "She's dead!"
ReplyDeleteUseless really, he won't say anything other than I didn't know or do anything, or I can't speak about an ongoing investigation.
ReplyDeleteI'm inclined to believe that their "relationship" was in fact way overblown, but I nonetheless agree. I like Big Show, but Sheamus in that role would be 9000x better.
ReplyDeleteI'm laughing at him, not with him.
ReplyDeleteShit, and I'd be tempted to go. Again.
ReplyDeleteBAHAHAHA.
ReplyDelete'Roids. Don't do 'em, kids.
ReplyDeleteThat does it. I'm downloading this right now.
ReplyDeleteTammi 2 stripping in the library was great. Also, Leslie smacking Jamm across the face repeatedly was funny, as was Ron's saxophone fart.
ReplyDeleteMe too. Especially when you consider HHH is rumored to want to push aside all of Johnny Ace's guys like Sheamus and Barrett.
ReplyDeleteIt's a damn shame that Rockstar Gary has to post his reviews in the forums for no one to read. A God damn shame.
ReplyDeleteThat's fine. If they aren't going to do it I'm going to start my own promotion and those two are going to be among my first wave of signees for the EFFH (European Funtime Fisticuffs Hour).
ReplyDeleteIs that the same forum where the supposed Meekin dick pic was being posted?
ReplyDeletedoes he talk about the anthrax scare he caused?
ReplyDeleteOk, so I've never actually heard a Radiohead song, not knowingly anyhow, but I've always been sort of aware of them as a band that had like one big hit with the kids in the early oughts.
ReplyDeleteTurns out that's not really their story at all. Huh.
This place is weird sometimes.
ReplyDeleteHere it is:
ReplyDelete"In this shanty town of Birmingham, Alabama, I await backstage in a common area. Behind the door beholds my future! Eric Bischoff told me to arrive 75 minutes ago. And where is he? Is he in a corporate meeting? Or is he on the floor drooling like a mongrel while in a soma coma like the rest of the plebeians in this establishment! I shall ask him why my partner, Wayne Bloom, is not teaming with me. Why are we not extinguishing the heat in Harlem? Are we not the only Males in America? And we are as Rough and Ready as anyone, nor Fire or Ice shall stop our path of greatness (prodcution assistant walks by to give a note). Blasphemy! I shall eave my post in front of this door and head to ye squared circle to pin the shoulders of Jack Boot to the mat! What kind of homosapien refers to himself as a boot made of Jack? My return will be grand, Mr. Bischoff, but I shall enter the depths of hell so the inbred population of Alabama can view greatness for the first time!"
Glad to see Raw is back to the 4.6 million average Stephanie said it was at all year while we ride the road to wrestlemania!
ReplyDeleteSpoiler alert: Taking a dick pic is Step 9 of the DDP Yoga workout.
ReplyDeleteThey posted the Meekin dick to the forums for no one to see? Pathetic. The Meekin "porn" was one of the saddest things around here recently. All that gets posted to the forums are Rockstar Gary reviews and fake MEEKIN dick pics. The time has come to remove the forums entirely. Reinstate Gary's posting privileges and formally apologize for the addition of the forums in the first place. No one wanted forums. It was a major misstep.
ReplyDeleteYeah pretty huge act.
ReplyDeleteI don't get any of this. Carry on though.
ReplyDeleteNot at all.
ReplyDeleteBeefcake takes a simple question about Warrior and turns it into a crazy story about how he was supposed to take the title off him (early 89) and combines about three years worth of shit happening to him into this one specific time period. Like somehow Ron Bass and Honky Tonk Man are involved. I'm not even doing this justice with how crazy Beefer sounds.
ReplyDeleteDrugs, man.
Now I feel bad :(
ReplyDeleteBlew me away. I literally never heard the name until like 2003 or 4.
ReplyDeleteDon't feel too bad. I've been sending in try out reviews to Scott with no answer. I really think Lucha Underground and my groundswell of comment support will lift me to the front page in due time.
ReplyDeleteSheamus returning could lead to the Bryan-Sheamus Mania match we've all been craving!
ReplyDelete*PPV exclusive
ReplyDeleteIts not even close to as bad as 99 with Venis, 00 with Rikishi, and 06 with Finlay.
ReplyDeleteI like Kane in his "Director of Operations" role if he was in the ring way less.
ReplyDeleteBelicheck: 1, Nerds: 0
ReplyDeleteShanty town of Birmingham Alabama? That city is by no means shanty. Go 5 minutes outside of Mobile, however, and you will find plenty of shanties.
ReplyDeleteI want a stable called the Board of Directors that are just like 7 suits with authority gimmicks. Let's just go full retard.
ReplyDeleteNow apparently the entire crowd booed Warrior after he won at WrestleMania 6.
ReplyDeleteI too feel like I'm owed an apology for the existence of all of the web pages on the internet that I wouldn't want to visit. And it damn sure better be a formal one, too!
ReplyDeleteNot all. Just the ones that were forced onto sites I currentky go to. The forums won the booker award for biggest website mistake of 2014. Remove them and let's all move on to a better tomorrow.
ReplyDeletePlease tell me he's wearing his MBTA uniform?
ReplyDeleteRoH has been having iPPV issues for a few years now. It's just starting to hurt their business?
ReplyDeletePoor Hogan was just trying to make a dollar and keep his family going while those no good dastardly fellows Vince and Warrior conspired to take it all away from him.
ReplyDeleteHe is wearing what only can be described as something out of post 2008 Jerry Lawler's closet.
ReplyDeleteIt is the worst of the 80's, agree?
ReplyDeleteYeah, I don't get that one, either. It's rare they have an iPPV that works. I've gotten a lot of free DVDs and refunds from them over the years. I honestly thought they stopped last year because they never worked. I mostly just order the DVDs and catch up on the weekly show when I can.
ReplyDeleteIf they haven't dropped it yet, they need to.
I like it.
ReplyDeleteI will say, though, that the one good thing about the tiresome and way too quick return of the Authority is that they've pretty much totally avoided making Rollins look like a mere corporate bitch. Kane and Show are basically his lackeys in addition to J&J Security.
So at least they've done well in handling the one guy who actually matters in all of this, even if he was better off leading them the group without HHH and Steph around.
Philly WrestleMania = Almost entirely ECW Hall of Fame class.
ReplyDeleteThis! Hahaha +1 my friend
ReplyDeleteSplendiforus.
ReplyDeleteI'm just too lazy to edit a pic and post it. If somebody wants to do it, I can email that person the pic.
ReplyDeleteEffectively setting the business back 20 years.
ReplyDeleteIt's a tiny link at the top of the page. Worst case scenario is someone accidentally clicks it and has to hit the back button on their browser. Unless the first thing they see when they click it is Meekin's dick, this doesn't strike me as a real problem.
ReplyDeleteFINALLY Dudley Dudley gets his due!
ReplyDeleteBy having him lose once in 6 years?
ReplyDeleteCould be. Honky's 87 Timeline was suprisingly dull.
ReplyDeleteMercifully, it's over.
ReplyDeleteDid you guys see the billboard in NYC that spoiled the Mania main event?
ReplyDeletehttps://pbs.twimg.com/media/B79cCIkIEAMjN-m.jpg
The fact that we just gloss over extremely low quality and throw up our hands and say, "oh well, ignore it I guess." Is the problem. That mentality won't get you anywhere and over time erodes a community. Better to attack it head on and admit your faults a d point out that you are consciously aware of it.
ReplyDeleteHonky's is good. Piper's is bad, so is Duggan's. Valentine's is really good.
ReplyDeleteSo basically he's wearing a Ed Hardy shirt.
ReplyDeleteWhen's the last iPPV they have had? I know they switched to uStream last year, but outside of the 2 traditional PPV's, I don't recall any iPPV events.
ReplyDeleteBooooo!
ReplyDeleteI honestly won't be signing up for Mania. I don't need this shit.
SUFFERING SUCCOTASH!!!
Shitty photoshop.
ReplyDeleteHold on...because we're about to get on the FAST LANE!
ReplyDeleteNot going to happen necessarily.
ReplyDeleteI hope so.
ReplyDeleteI wish this business could go back 16 years and work on being entertaining again.
ReplyDeleteValentine's is good and Steele's is excellent too. I heard Martel's is also solid.
ReplyDeleteKevin Nash = ratings.
ReplyDeleteHow old are you? You didn't know who Radiohead was?
ReplyDeleteAnybody else surprised that HHH would want to work a match with Sting?
ReplyDeleteThey'll have to extend it 90 minutes to fit Tommy Dreamer's sacrifice/acceptance speech in.
ReplyDeleteBury WCW one final time.
ReplyDeleteNo. Not at all.
ReplyDeleteI haven't seen Piper's. Duggan's is below average, but nowhere near as bad as Beefcake.
ReplyDeleteWhat are worse WWF/WWE PPV names than Fast Lane?
ReplyDeleteBill the Brain!
ReplyDeleteSo one whiny douche replaced by another.
ReplyDeleteHell In A Cell. TLC. Money in the Bank
ReplyDeleteTLC(s), Hell in a Cell, Elimination Chamber.
ReplyDeleteNo. He is the reincarnation of Harley Race. He is Ric Flair personified. He will be the guy in the ring when Sting finally joins WWE.
ReplyDeleteOh, it's sarcasm. It's gotta be sarcasm.
What he wears these days is gayer than his Barber attire.
ReplyDeleteJust 90 minutes?
ReplyDeleteWrestleMania. It should be SportsEntertainmentMania GODDAMNIT
ReplyDeleteLOL...it was a crazy huge pop.
ReplyDeleteIn Your House Badd Bblloooodd IYH: Its Time
ReplyDeleteTHAT'S WHAT HIS FATHER DID, DAMN IT!!!!
ReplyDeleteAhhhh! And my blinkers aren't working! I can't handle it!!!
ReplyDeleteI just ordered a pair of shredded spandex pants and foam hedge clippers!
ReplyDeleteThe match named PPVs.
ReplyDeleteHell in a Cell
Money in the Bank
Elimination Chamber
Otherwise, Fast Lane is probably the worse.
ITH: Beware of Dogg
ReplyDeleteIYH: Canadian Stampede
Surely make you lose your mind
ReplyDeleteI'm surprised at how casual people are about sending nude pics of themselves these days. I just send Brett Favre's penis.
ReplyDeleteWWF Break Down was pretty weak.
ReplyDeleteNope. Anytime they show clips of "special moments in Wrestlemania history", HHH will be involved in several of them just because he was able to put himself in that spot. Sting is another one of those special moments that he wants, win or lose. Doesn't matter at all. It's the big moment that matters.
ReplyDeletewtf, those two names were awesome.
ReplyDelete*HONK* Get off that road, asshole!
ReplyDelete"The Bash"
ReplyDeleteIf I'm booking Reigns, I have him go on early in the Rumble, but get pulled out by Rusev after having eliminated him at the end. Build to Rusev-Reigns for the U.S. Title at 'Mania, maybe with Hulk Hogan in his corner. Have Reigns win it, then defend it throughout the year.
ReplyDeleteHave him face IC Champion Dolph Ziggler in a unification match at SummerSlam, then roll into January and win the Rumble before moving on to face John Cena in Dallas at WrestleMania XXXII.
Losing is even better in his eyes. It puts him in the spotlight and he can point out later ALLLLLLL the guys he laid down for. There by building the bridge to the future single handedly. CENA isn't even relevant today if HHH doesn't do the job at WM22.
ReplyDeleteSting is the laziest vigilante ever. Two acts of vigilantism in three months? Batman does two in his first ten minutes of his nightly shift!
ReplyDeleteI'LL RATE EVERY WOMAN IN HERE!
ReplyDeleteOne letter away from Dennis' real intentions...
How does this lead to Hogan getting the belt?
ReplyDeleteI would love to see Reigns cut a promo, Hogan-style. I bet he would do a good job.
ReplyDeleteFirst two episodes of this season have been great.
ReplyDeleteTaboo Tuesday
ReplyDeleteReigns really shouldn't be associating with old people.
ReplyDeleteAside from a couple of meh episodes in Season 8, this show has been amazingly consistent.
ReplyDeleteSort of Smackdown spoiler, but I just read that his promo on tonight's show "actually wasn't awful." What a ringing endorsement.
ReplyDeleteSt. Valentine's Massacre
ReplyDeleteIYH: Great White North
IYH: The Lumberjacks
IYH: Season's Beatings
IYH: Good Friends, Better Enemies
BRAGGING RIGHTS
ReplyDeleteHe doesn't even stay in shape for his vigilantism!
ReplyDelete...Those are all good
ReplyDeleteWhy did they book themselves into a corner with this limited bookings stuff in contracts? Either get more dates or make them closer together (aka what they did with Rock) so that it doesn't appear that Sting made a statement and then went home and ate some Ho Ho's.
ReplyDeleteTables, Ladders, Chairs, AND STAIRS
ReplyDeleteHe said Andre never called himself a giant. Pretty awful stuff. His mannerisms and facial expressions will make it all even worse.
ReplyDeleteHow amazing would it be if the main event is Reigns vs Lesnar and Lesnar shoots on him and destroys him in 30 seconds? Whips out a UFC contract and signs it with Roman's blood right there.
ReplyDeleteYou mean like he did Monday to a decent pop and name chant?
ReplyDeleteI hadn't heard about the Rikishi and Fit Finlay interviews. What made them so awful?
ReplyDeleteThe Lumberjacks? Great White North? That's terrible stuff.
ReplyDelete"It's great to be here at Reliant Stadium" while at AT&T Stadium in Dallas?
ReplyDeleteThat's like saying my wife's dinner "actually doesn't taste like undercooked road kill."
ReplyDeleteI'd jizz. If I still had my balls.
ReplyDeleteI love STP. Damn shame Weiland couldn't get his shit together. I saw them live 2 or 3 years ago and they put on a hell of a show. Everyone loves "Purple", but I think "Tiny Music" was better.
ReplyDeleteHonest question, though: is that actually true? I don't have any catalogued knowledge of Andre promos. That was his ring name, but was Andre constantly referring to himself as such? Because heel Big Show is always referring to himself as a "giant," so on paper I think it's a good line.
ReplyDelete"I'm 8 and a half inches."
ReplyDelete"Sorry, I'm not interested in midgets."
I said WORSE NAME
ReplyDeleteThe best part is you know Vince would re-sign him 3 years later because a rematch would literally make all of the dollars.
ReplyDeleteHe had a whole feud with Big John Studd over who the real giant was.
ReplyDeleteIn the Wrestlemania Rewind I watched last night, there was an interview where they asked Andre in 84 whether he'd challenge Hulk for the title, and he replied "Because I don't want to be the champion, I just want to be the giant, I want to be Andre"
ReplyDeleteWhat the hell is a Canadian Stampede? That was the one and only time I've ever seen Canada portrayed with a Western theme. Cowboy hats everywhere.
ReplyDeleteIt's not "our" blog. You don't get a vote on the content someone else decides to put on their blog and if you're not pleased with something they add you're not owed an apology.
ReplyDeleteThis reminds me of when I bodyslammed the other Eighth Wonder of the World, the Astrodome, so then they built Enron Field brother!!!
ReplyDeleteThat would be the greatest night in the history of our sport, and Tony Schiavone would literally die of a heart attack at that moment.
ReplyDeleteI mean I'm sure there's more, but I just saw that last night
ReplyDeleteWestern Canada is very country. It's like a Northern Wyoming.
ReplyDeleteThose were both great names.
ReplyDeleteGo visit Calgary. You'll see a few.
ReplyDelete
