All-Purpose News Thread Part II

Sasha is finally talking



If you remember, she and Naomi walked out the same day Stephanie was speaking about basically how they own everyone and their characters and their IP.

She looks so much better with a normal hair colour.

Dave was on Sunday night’s main event talking about Gable Steveson and how it’s been quiet around him. He said they did want him to debut at Wrestlemania, and would’ve positioned like Brock Lesnar was when he came up, and would be a main eventer on Raw by now. There’s been talk that he may stay in school for this year.

There was an earlier report that he has not progressed as expected and that his brother, Damon Kemp in NXT, has progressed much faster.

There was an earlier report that he has not progressed as expected and that his brother, Damon Kemp in NXT, has progresses much faster.

He was also training for pro wrestling and also for his season at the same time last year which never seemed like a good idea, and that’s with them building a training spot just for him with private trainers. Personality I think he’s rethinking it all because he wants to do UFC too.

So I wonder which 3 " former pro wrestlers " are involved in the Brett Favre scandal ???? All I could find was a couple of articles identifying them as former WWE wrestlers.

from sportsnet.ca:

In May, the Mississippi Department of Human Services filed a civil lawsuit against Favre, three former pro wrestlers and several other people and businesses to try to recover millions of misspent welfare dollars. The lawsuit said the defendants “squandered” more than $20 million from the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families anti-poverty program.

About 1,800 Mississippi households received payments from the program in 2021, according to the Department of Human Services. A family of three must have a monthly income below $680 to qualify for help, and the current monthly benefit for that family is $260. Payments are allowed for up to five years.

In pleading guilty, Nancy and Zachary New acknowledged taking part in spending $4 million of welfare money for the volleyball facility.

Mississipi? Gotta be Ted DeBiase.

 

[Unholy Diver]

Mississipi? Gotta be Ted DeBiase.

Yeah likely both Sr. & Jr.

 

[Jussi]

Mississipi? Gotta be Ted DeBiase.

It's already known it's him. And it seems his sons:

Ted DiBiase And Sons Ordered To Repay Millions Of Dollars In Misspent Welfare Money

Damn - I guess everybody really does have a price:

 

[BostonBob]

And I don't want to make light of what he did but wouldn't this have been exactly something The Million Dollar Man character would have done. Screw those hungry families - I want a volleyball court but I'm not paying for it. ( insert evil laugh here )

Roman Reigns vs. Logan Paul at Crown Jewel. Is that the big news?

[Sheppy]

f*** Charlotte Flair.

Roman Reigns vs. Logan Paul at Crown Jewel. Is that the big news?

Evidently

 

[I Hart Conor Garland]

They should give Logan Paul the belts.

 

[TD Charlie]

f*** Charlotte Flair.

But she can do moonsaults!

Roman Reigns vs. Logan Paul at Crown Jewel. Is that the big news?

That's the big news, something anyone could have pieced together two days ago from the podcast.

Paying Dave actual money is a massive waste

 

[Emperoreddy]

This dude seems to get a lot wrong, but Charlotte being back soon was going to be the case.

Smackdown needs her too, it's very short on star power for the women right now

 

[GKJ]

That’s not the first we’ve heard about that being the plan for Charlotte.

While, yes… she’s a big name. She’s also the momentum killer for most up and comers. Shotzi is probably like “f***” - Charlotte has rarely made anyone look good, ever.

Bianca beating Charlotte at Mania makes too much sense.

She beat Sasha at Mania, she beat Becky at Mania, she has beaten Bayley at other shows.

Charlotte completes the set and makes her one of the few women to have beaten all four horsewomen (I think Asuka has done it) and I think the only one to have done it with the title on the line each time.

That's about as big an accomplishment as you can get

They will have her lose so they can spend the next year building to get herself back there like they did with Becky
