CI Wrestling Thread #56

Can someone explain to me the Grayson Waller appeal? I think this dude is just an Austin Theory wannabe but not as good and I think Austin Theory is terrible.
 
MLW is suing WWE claiming they cost them deals with both Tubi TV and Vice.

Battle Of The Belts did 704,000 viewers and a .27 in the demo.

lol I remember several months ago when Court was talking about working with wwe and trying to create buzz. He shoulda known what would have happened. Dā€™Amore and Corgen are idiots if they work with Vince as well.

Johnny Ace was the one to contact Mickie about working the rumble. He didnā€™t even know she was working somewhere else when he called her. šŸ˜‚

I can see him being used sparingly as story catalyst. Kinda like how coach was used back in the day.
 
It's Wednesday, you know what that means..tonight on Dynamite

CM Punk vs. Wardlow.
AEW Interim TNT Champion Sammy Guevara vs. Daniel Garcia.
Powerhouse Hobbs (with Taz) vs. Dante Martin (with Lio Rush.)
Serena Deeb vs. Hikaru Shida.

Also Tony Schiavone announced he's agreed to a two year extension with AEW through 2024.

I could do without Little Lio but the rest is a pretty good lineup.
 
Cody posted on Instagram he and Brandi were isolating with family who had tested positive for COVID..

Tom Phillips formerly of WWE is the new play by play guy for Impact. He replaces Matt Striker who was let go,

The whole Mickie James thing is interesting considering how she left the company and the whole sending her stuff to her in a trash bag. Of course if she loses the title tonight then it isn't as big a deal.
I still do not see the issue with a garbage bag being used to put in a shipping box to ship to someone. First, I guess I was curious she had anything left considering they're always traveling out of a suitcase anyway and considering how they travel when trying to make it, I wouldn't think anyone would take offense. Mox lived like that. lol

Who hasn't used a trash bag to move clothes? Is bubble wrap inside a box the appropriate sign of respect? LOL

What kind of booking are you expecting? Mox and omega are both out. Jericho hasnā€™t wrestled and theyā€™ve really been pushing their young studs. AC is about to get a good turn, Wardlow is going to get a good turn. I think the booking has been fantastic. Not always the best matches, but I think theyā€™re doing great. I do agree they have a backlog of talent that they need to work on. I think weā€™re about to see a bunch of OGs be let go when their contracts are up.
 
Donā€™t like this direction MJF and Punk are going. Itā€™s the Labors of Jericho all over again. Theyā€™re amazing on the mic against each other, but please donā€™t repeat shit. And I love Dan Lambert.

That picture with David, Tony and Bob Caudle is really cool. I think I mentioned this before I've been watching the Mid-Atlantic shows on the (Pea) Cock. I'm up to mid 1983 right now.

Just getting caught up on the show. This week's card isn't the best but they are making up for it next week. OC and Statlander vs. Cole and Baker should be fun.

I believe Baker and Thunder Rosa was voted Match Of The Year

wwe during the attitude area worked the same 30 or so guys over and over again and everyone was over. they had a few guys that you didn't really care about too but most of their roster was over and interacting with one another. that's not what's going on here. it's no name jobbers that no one cares about. i want to see rhodes vs punk or miro vs black or some of the bigger names start getting involved with one another. it seems like the record(s) are keeping this from happening.. because everyone is undefeated. BD was undefeated up until this most recent loss to Hangman, which was dumb.

where's jay lethal? where Christian? why arent they involved. who gives a shit about orange cassidy, hook, and all these other scabs that make me tune out of their show. my guess is they really don't know what to do and today's wrestling really does need writers to create storylines to keep people interested. outside of cm punk, this product isn't worth watching. I'm thankful he's usually on in the first 20 minutes because I can tune out after that.

WCW would save him until the end and tease him for 3 hours when nitro was around but AEW has no idea how to run a show

This isn't even true. You can go back and watch an Attitude Era show on peacock lmao....in fact just last week I was watching the debut of Scott Hall in WCW and they had multiple shitty matches.

The attitude era was notorious for having a shitty undercard and mid card because they struggled to book anything that wasn't NWO, Rock, Austin, Undertaker, or HHH related.

Even during the Monday Night Wars the first hour or so of Nitro or Raw was generally not worth watching.
