Lol...no way. Smh.

Wasn't he one of the writters that couldn't wait to get on tv?

[Generations]

It just never ceases to amaze me how easy it is for so many people with a questionable past to just pretend to be squaky clean and turn a conservative following for themselves. It's like...9/10 times. Lol. If you dig into the past of almost any conservative, you learn that they were almost always directly involved with the things they claim to oppose. It's wild.

Drew's contract notes

In a most interesting development, the word making the rounds today in Los Angeles is that former WWE Champion Drew McIntyre's WWE deal is coming to an end and the two sides haven't come to terms on a new deal yet.

Multiple sources confirmed today that McIntyre's deal is not up "imminently" but is in its final year

[glennsoe]

Just read on reddit that Bushwacker Butch has passed, RIP..

[Generations]

McIntyre would be huge for AEW...and exactly the kind of "real" world champion that they desperately need. 

He'd also be badass in Japan.

Former TNA Star Told She Can Move Forward With Lawsuit Against Dozens Of Defendants, Including WWE & Impact Personalities And The NWA, Among Others

 

Former TNA and WWE developmental star Trenesha "Rhaka Khan" Biggers filed a lawsuit back in October 2022 before The U.S. District Court, Southern District of New York, claiming a conspiracy against her in relation to an ongoing Texas criminal case listing, among others, as defendants: The Rock, WWE personalities The Miz and Maryse, current Impact Wrestling star Heath Miller, WWE Hall of Famer Nikki Bella, the late Chris Benoit, former WWE talent Mark Jindrak, the now-defunct Florida Championship Wrestling, Steve Keirn, The National Wrestling Alliance, NWA President Billy Corgan, the now-defunct Deep South Wrestling, Jim Cornette, Mick Foley, and countless others. 

 

The lawsuit alleges that the defendants all "conspired to kidnap plaintiff and her children." There had been no movement on the case for months, but court records now indicate that in February, Biggers was authorized to move forward with the lawsuit with pre-paying any court fees. Court records indicate she notified by mail of this developmental in March at a home address she lists in New York City on the lawsuit. The 48-page lawsuit shows Biggers seeking $3 billion in damages. The majority of the filing is a long list of defendants, some of whom are listed multiple times.

 

Biggers had been posting videos to YouTube in relation to her criminal case, claiming her indictment was "fake" but later made the videos private. 

 

Truly a loaded case…

This is such a weird and bitter take from Chavo. Wtf...

Add another bizarre rant to that.

This dude needs to take several seats.

Former WWE and current AEW star CM Punk was backstage for a bit at tonight's Monday Night Raw taping, PWInsider.com has confirmed.

Tonight's taping is being held in his hometown of Chicago (well, Rosemont, IL, right outside) at the Allstate Center, the same venue where Punk defeated John Cena for the WWE title at the 2011 Money in the Bank PPV.

There's no word who Punk was there visiting, but we have heard from several WWE sources that he did briefly see Paul Levesque, which would have been the first time the two have met in person since the day Punk walked out of the company back in 2014. 

Punk also met with several other WWE talents, but was eventually asked to exit the arena.

One WWE source believed it may have been since he was under contract to another company.  We are told by the same source that it was a Vince McMahon call that he leave the venue and that when he was asked, Punk immediately said his goodbyes and left the building.

This feels like an April Fools day article

[Mani-Man]

Well the idea to help Eddies Daughter who her mother threatens to sue because she spoke out about being Sexually Assaulted by her Mothers current husband, isnt the worst idea ever.

But still, Chavo behaving very weird here in General.

[glennsoe]

According to pwinsider Punk being backstage was cause he was on a flight to Chicago with some wwe talent and Producers and lives minutes away from the arena.

The feeling is he was backstage looking to "right any wrongs" from the past. He was there  brief time until he was told by security to leave,which he did without any issue.

Apparently Chavo was "Heeling" when he said that about Rey. Typical excuse they all use when they can't take the heat!

New Vince allegations about sexism and racism in writers meetings. How many weeks of negative Vince press does there need to be until the new management ultimately parts ways with him? The guy is absolutely nothing but negative press...week after week, and month after month.

Doesn't Vince have his old "powers" for another 2 years? Swear I read somewhere that he looses power after 2 years into the merger..

But I've been wrong before..

Vince McMahon, WWE Sued by Ex-Writer Over ‘Racist’ Scene Scripts

World Wrestling Entertainment Inc., Vince McMahon, and other executives allegedly discriminated and retaliated against a Black female writer for objecting to “offensively racist and stereotypical jargon” used in the scripts of Black wrestlers including Bianca Belair and Apollo Crews, according to a new lawsuit.

The lawsuit ‘Britney Abrahams vs WWE’ also states:

That on another occasion, a writer allegedly proposed that a Muslim’s wrestler’s secret in a script be that he was “behind the 9/11 attacks.”

Other writers suggested a Black male wrestler should dress in drag.

A script including instructing Bianca Belair to say “Uh-Uh! Don’t make me take off my earrings and beat your ass! " 

Apollo Crews to speak with a “stereotypical and exaggerated Nigerian accent,” but was rebuffed.

A key detail in the lawsuit also states that Bianca Belair informed Plaintiff that she told Chris Dunn (involved in the lawsuit): “3 different times that I don’t want to say that line! But he never listens to me! He puts that line in every week!”.

Belair also said the script’s discriminatory line(s) made her look “ghetto”.

More bullet points from the lawsuit:

• Ms. Sylvers & Plaintiff (the only black writers on the team, at the time) were tasked to pitch a love storyline between wrestlers Aaliyah, Mansoor & Angel Garza. Ms. Sylvers and Plaintiff pitched that Mansoor has a secret that he’s keeping from Aaliyah. Ryan Callahan (involved in lawsuit) disagreed with the secret Ms. Sylvers and Plaintiff wanted for the character. Instead, Callahan suggested, “how about his secret is he's behind the 9/11 attacks?”

• WWE forced wrestler Apollo Crews to speak with a Nigerian accent, just because of his Nigerian lineage. Plaintiff emailed Ryan Callahan and complained about the offensive nature of the requirement for Apollo Crews to speak with a stereotypical and exaggerated Nigerian accent. However, despite Plaintiff’s complaint, Callahan failed and/or refused to take corrective action and as a result Callahan and WWE forced Plaintiff to require Apollo Crews to speak with a racially artificial Nigerian accent.

• It was discussed in the WWE writer’s Slack channel (app) before a show, that a new wrestler, Reggie, would dress in drag complete with wig and tights, “so he could partner with Carmella, a female wrestler, in a tag-team match against other female wrestlers.”

• Ryan Callahan who’s name has been involved with a lot of the daunting details in the current lawsuit is, as of today, the Vice President of WWE #SmackDown. Callahan Previously was fired as RAW’s lead writer in 2019 after reportedly being classed as ‘too difficult to work with’.

They have UFC under their banner, i doubt that negative press is bothering them too much.
But then, literally the only problem for weeks is one person...its not a bunch that cause negative press over and over again.
Its really just one old guy who has been proven to be out of touch.

Like, just get rid of Vince...thats all they need to do for things to run smooth again.

What's wrong with that Bianca line? I don't get it.

Stereotypical black hoodrat(chet) antics, the removal of the earrings before scrapping (even though it's something anybody with earrings should do) and especially announcing it, hence why Bianca referred to it as "ghetto".

It's a thing, trust

[T-Hell]

Oh, I see..

[Generations]

If she came up with that line on her own, and literally wanted to say it...then nothing would have been wrong with it...but, having a white guy be like "you should say this very ghetto sounding thing" is definitely not okay. Also, I'm assuming he said it with the inflection. White people love to copy accents and then be like "I didn't do that". My mom does it all the time. It absolutely kills me inside.

Apparently they say now that Sara Lee killed herself with a combination of alcohol and pills, and there were "letters of intent" discovered. Damn.

[T-Hell]

Of course the woman with three freaking children would kill herself..

Oh, c'mon man...there are plenty of happy people with three or more kids.

That's a crazy thing to say. Especially when those kids don't have a mother now.

I'm afraid you didn't get me. I mean that when it comes to the irony of life, I'm not even surprised that 3 children lost their mother due to suicide.  To me it's infuriating. Like.. why would you kill herself when you have 3 kids? I know the mind can do horrendous things to you, but jesus.. it's almost like she waited until after being a mother for the third time on purpose or something. I don't know.. this is just me getting mad at the universe for being so unfair sometimes.
