GDAWG Posted July 20, 2017 Report Share Posted July 20, 2017 According to The Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Nick Magnus Aldis is no longer with GFW. He turned down the contract offer they gave him. He worked the tapings where he dropped the GFW title to Alberto El Patron on a handshake deal. http://411mania.com/wrestling/magnus-no-longer-with-gfw/ Really? A handshake deal? Perhaps he wants to spend more time with wifey. So how long before he shows up at Full Sail? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TNFNS Posted July 21, 2017 Report Share Posted July 21, 2017 They NEED to get out of the Impact Zone. This Sammy dude is doing wild shit to no reaction. Apparently, Johnny Mundo and Taya plus some other Woman have signed with GFW/TNA. According to what I read, Mundo is on one of the NY Live Event shows in the beginning of August. They aren't promoting any upcoming Live Events, wtf are they doing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Fight Me. Posted July 21, 2017 Report Share Posted July 21, 2017 Anyone else hate the word "Unified"? I prefer the word "Undisputed," personally. Also, anyone else feel Octagoncito and Damián 666 are a bit...too big to be considered minis? Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Champ can't physically take his belt back and management won't do it for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Fight Me. Posted July 21, 2017 Report Share Posted July 21, 2017 Lol yeah I was thinking they were pretty stiff too, reminds me of how like LU makes every slap or kick louder than it actually was lmao. I can't believe GFW got me watching this Swole-Mates show. I wouldn't mind if GFW trained these 2 dudes for a match against Drake and Adonis. Though I doubt they could top DeAngelo Williams' performance at Slammiversary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
classiq. Posted July 21, 2017 Report Share Posted July 21, 2017 Despite losing the Knockouts title at Slammiversary to Sienna, thus ending a 266 day reign as Knockouts Champion, Impact Wrestling Knockout Rosemary has full intentions of recapturing the gold. In a recent interview with Ring Rust Radio, the Demon Assassin discusses her Slammiversary defeat, her series of stipulated matches against Jade, the importance of being a role model to young fan and gives her thoughts on WWEs Mae Young Classic Tournament. Transcription of the interview below, courtesy of Ring Rust Radio. On losing the Knockouts Title at Slammiversary: Yes, with Sienna, we did lose our title and that may deter some people, but not us. Sienna has fallen to the Demon Assassin before, twice even. Most recently on the live One Night Only for the Knockouts title in January. The fact that she learned how to defeat us, the fact that she evolved, the fact that she went to a place perhaps she wouldnt consider to go before and used tactics that she hadnt considered and learned to defeat us, we respect that absolutely. It elevates her game which means we have to elevate ours and that is exciting, is it not? On her feud with Jade (Mia Yim): Those matches were important because those matches show the length that we will go to what we want, which is absolutely limitless. We are not afraid of pain, not to say that we dont feel pain, dont be ridiculous. This body is flesh and blood no matter what we say. To go through a Monsters Ball, takes such mental fortitude and it helps to have a mentor such as Abyss to prepare us for that match. To go through it and take those weapon shots and going through table that perhaps are impressive when a man does it, but when a considerably smaller framed female goes through a table, its painful, its destructive, its breathtaking and it is proving that we are willing to go to these limits and there are no reasons for us to not do what the boys can do. I think we have proven that. As for what else we would like to do, we have yet to climb up a ladder. To ascend to new heights, both metaphorically and physically. Perhaps that will be something in our future. On the importance of being a role model: There is an undeniable satisfaction in knowing that there are other children, who were like you growing up. We grew up with all boys. We had a brother and 13 male cousins, maybe a couple of girls, and we werent a girly girl by any means. We grew up differently and we grew up playing sports. Perhaps a social outcast? Definitely not a popular girl. To be a role model, to know the other children who arent cookie cutters and dont fit the mold, who arent cheerleaders, arent the popular kids, who are a little bit bookish, nerdy, a little bit off-centered, who enjoy painting their faces, who enjoy horror movies rather of chick flicks. There is a role model for you, and we welcome you into the Hive. The Hive is a collection of all sorts of social misfits from all walks of life, all colors and creed and countries, it doesnt matter. If you identify with what we are doing you are welcome here. Thoughts on WWEs Mae Young Classic tournament: Exposure is never a bad thing. We know several of those girls in the Mae Young classic and they deserve a spotlight. All of them deserve the chance. In this world, in any facet of this world or really any business, especially in professional wrestling as it does have the more public exposure, it is about having that door open, having that opportunity, and having that ball passed to you. You may have all the tools to run with it, but unless someone gives it to you, you may never get that opportunity. All of those girls were just waiting for that opportunity. When it is given to them, they are going to run with it and show that it was the right choice to be given that ball. Some of them have been waiting for years. Mercedes Martinez is one of the most respected womens wrestlers on the independent circuit, and its finally her opportunity. All the exposure she deserves after so many years. All of us already knew, all of us knows she is the best, and finally, the rest of the world will get a glimpse of that as well. Absolutely no matter what age or how many years you have been doing this, its all exposure and getting that chance, but its up to you what you do with that chance. What bigger platform is there than an international market with the WWE and the Mae Young classic. Its a 100 percent a wonderful thing for these girls.

classiq. Posted July 26, 2017 Report Share Posted July 26, 2017 James Storm has an interview with Brian Fritz of the Sporting News discussing his Slammiversary, Beer Money and many other topics On why the DCC didn't work: There's a lot of reasons (it didnt work), Storm said, but the No. 1 reason that I want to stay is because it wasn't done the way that I had pitched it and wanted it to be. Storm says he wanted the faction with himself, Eddie Kingston and Bram to factor into the Ethan Carter feud: I had this planned out for this past Slammiversary, Storm said. We have our match and then EC3 comes in and tries to screw me by hitting me with a beer bottle. One, two, and I kick out. Then Bram and Kingston come down, beat up EC3 a little bit and they fight out and the fourth member comes out, takes off the mask and it's Jarrett and he hits Lashley with the guitar and then I pin Lashley. On Impact going on the road being a good thing for the product: It's really hard to judge who's over and who's not, Storm said. I think with us getting back on the road, it will show management we need to push this guy because he's really over or we should do something with this guy. It also helps younger talent learn how to work. Not just go out and do all these moves but to learn to work. On his time with NXT, he said the following: With the schedule of NXT and he was telling me we're going to try and run 100-120 shows from here on out throughout the year and stuff, Storm said. It's all great and everything but where I was, personally, in my life, I couldn't be on the road that much because I had some family problems, my wife wanted to have another kid. So, it was one of those things where it wasn't the right timing for me. Hunter straight up told me, 'Go get your life together. This is my number. Maybe in two years, we can do business again.' On rumors of possibly going into the Impact Wrestling Hall of Fame: I have no idea how that was even brought up, Storm said. I think the Hall of Fame is meant for people who are pretty much done wrestling. Not even winding down their career, those who are pretty much done. I'm not done by any means. I've gotten in the best shape I've ever been in. I feel great because of the schedule that Impact has been running and I could go another five, six years at least. I don't want to overstay my welcome. I'm just saying I've got good runs left in me. They state in the article that he will be back on television in late August.
