Appears to be an impending change to the AEW battle of the belts card due to ‘medical protocol’ announced on Rampage

Seth Rollins was to win the WWE title at Day 1 before plans obviously changed according to Dave

I'm legitimately interested to see how they choose to audible this. Oddly enough, I also have every expectation that they won't f*** it up

Kairi Sane's WWE contract is up in February, so there is speculation, again, that she may turn up somewhere, even if part time appearances. She's got other projects going on as well, she just opened a fitness center.

She doesn't seem like the type of wrestler that the WWE would allow to have their own schedule and go back and forth between promotions. And by "the type of wrestler" I mean "literally any wrestler"

WWE would never go for it. I really hate to keep saying this but she's the type of wrestler that's perfect for Tony to bring in. Let her work a little in the states, let her go work a bit in Japan. Continue to grow the relationship between AEW and Japan, get some additional eyes on AEW talent, etc etc

Well, they f***ed it up lol

Cody v Sammy only made sense because the first two matches were pretty good, and everybody wants to see Cody go full heel or Sammy to get his win back

Now we get neither

Been watching MLW on YouTube. Pretty solid product they have going on right now. Jacob Fatu is top tier. Looks like a combo of Umaga and Meng, finish is a double jump moonsault. Wildly impressive. Should be a star in either major promotion

Tammy Sytch arrested again. :shakehead

from msn.com:

According to TMZ, Tammy Lynn Sytch (aka Sunny) was arrested and taken into custody this morning in New Jersey, on three charges. The charges collectively cover the alleged crimes of making terroristic threats and illegally possessing a weapon. The report notes that the weapon in question doesn’t appear to be a firearm.

If convicted, the two weapons charges each come with a three to five year prison sentence, while the charge on terroristic threats potentially comes with a one year prison sentence.

Sytch was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2011. She was an extremely popular performer for WWF in the mid 90’s, mostly as a manager, where she was one of the most downloaded celebrities on the growing internet.

She has run into constant legal troubles in recent years, including an eight month jail sentence in 2018 related to several DUI incidents. She was most recently in jail in the first half of 2021 for violating a restraining order, driving a vehicle with a suspended license, and eluding an officer.

Lol the elimination chamber name change

The joke of a ppv being treated like a joke of a ppv. Seems fitting.

I watched some of it on Vice network a couple months ago. I thought it was really good. Not sure if they are still airing it or not.

Appears Hikaru Shida has a knee injury that she was written off TV to take care of. And is actually headed to Japan as well so we won’t be seeing her for a while.
