Wrestling News & Rumours Thread ***NO CHAT***

Looks like Fox & USA aren't happy about Bray being released.

I'm guessing he was a draw for them and the WWE are releasing major names.

Look I know that AEW is where baring some miracle ric flair will end up. But I saw it suggested by someone on Twitter and the official Twitter account of the wrestling company replied and agreed with this suggestion. That company was the NWA. I know it’s pro wrestling and all the things that go with that, but I would LOVE if flair made a stop at the NWA(which is doing stuff at the chase in St. Louis) and they got him and nick Aldis on TV with ric putting over both Aldis and the NWA worlds heavyweight title, that to me would be unbelievably cool as a wrestling fan. I mean flair, the domed globe belt, the chase in st Louis. That would be very cool.

AEW should get Flair into their wrestling game.

Ishii vs Moose announced for Resurgence. Take my money! Which of course means Ishii is in the US .... Get it done TK.

Beautiful Bobby Eaton has died aged 62 RIP.

Awful sad news to hear that Bobby Eaton has died. I’ve never heard anyone say anything approaching a bad word about him either as a wrestler or a person. As cornette said in the past, the reason Bobby Eaton was in WCW for so long(nearly to the end) was because he was a great wrestler and nobody in that company wanted to be known as the guy who fired Bobby Eaton.

But he’s the constant in my favourite tag team ever the midnight express. He was also in the dangerous alliance of some all time greats. He was so smooth in the ring and had an amazing punch. A shame he didn’t get a WWE HOF(I know but it’s high profile) induction because he would have deserved it.

Dixie Carter made an appearance on ROH's women's division Wednesday last night.

Is Session Moth still signed with ROH?

Jimmy Uso.

Just watched Midnight Express vs Fantastics from Clash of the Champions 1.

Only about ten minutes, but holy ****, talk about a hot crowd.

Yeah would understand video because don't want to hear the real reactions.

Yep, someone on Reddit posted ancient WWF/WWE tickets with the venue forbidding camcorder footage etc. It's a ridiculous rule that no-one pays attention to. What are they gonna do, kick out everyone who takes their phone out? Good luck.

But Meltzer throws the chum out and people bite.

The venue tweeted this out before deleting it, So this is where the story came from. Nobody is making anything up they are reporting what the venue tweeted.

Some folk get all hot about nothing.

Fun fact: it actually says no recording on the WWF June Dublin 1995 tickets too. But when the show opened Fink says its ok to take personal photography on the mic.

You do have to laugh as if someone was recording back in the day you'd see some guy with a massive camcorder on his shoulder. Hardly discreet lol.

QT Marshall seems to be a bit of an idiot https://www.digitalspy.com/tv/ustv/a37257682/aew-qt-marshall-shaq-oneal-cody-dynamite-table/

He lied to Shaq about padding for a table bump. If you don't see the problem there then I can't help you.

TripleMania on tomorrow, looking forward to it.

Omega/Andrade is the standout to most fans obviously, will be interesting to see what happens with the belt collector there. It's hard to envision Omega losing these days but AAA have been hinting towards an Andrade/Psycho Clown feud so it's a tough one to call.

The Psycho Clown/Rey Escorpion mask vs hair match and the Lucha Bros triple-threat tag title match will both be great. Faby Apache/Deonna could be memorable for the wrong reasons, Purazzo has not meshed well with the promotion in her previous appearances and Faby can be pretty stiff with non-Mexican wrestlers.

Not the easiest show to watch live, I don't think you can legally outside of Mexico but it will be up on all the usual spots afterwards I'm sure.
