Guest Fight Me. Posted December 2, 2020 Report Share Posted December 2, 2020 (edited) Have one in the AEW section too, so that these big announcements don't get lost in the shuffle. I also don't mind this just being combined with the releases thread if I may suggest. Anyway... THE RASCALZ ARE HERE. Minus Trey Miguel for some reason... Edited December 2, 2020 by Fight Me.

Generations Posted January 20, 2021 Report Share Posted January 20, 2021 (edited) Kind of a shame about Priscilla. WWE seems like a death sentence for someone like her. At a time when the indies are vast, and you have working relationships between AEW/Impact/NJPW...I would have thought it a much better decision to keep doing what she was doing. I guess some people still hold onto that "WWE is the top" mindset, even when it has arguably become less and less accurate. At best...maybe a fun run in NXT. Probably stick her in a team with Shotzi for no reason. After that...jobbing to the four horsewomen on Raw/SD, if she ever goes to either. Not likely to ever be someone that they see as a "top star" or "championship caliber". Best bet would probably be to bring Paige back as her manager/valet. Which, she doesn't need...but that seems like the WWE thing to do. Edited January 20, 2021 by Generations Link to comment
Guest Fight Me. Posted January 20, 2021 Report Share Posted January 20, 2021 Funny how Elayna Black just got in a Twitter feud with Joey Janela like this week cause he's refused to work with her. He tried to get her blacklisted from GCW and everything. Welp lol Also that Zoey Stark girl saw her chance to name herself Stark and took it. Bless. Unless that's their shoot names they listed.

Ziggy Vercetti Posted January 21, 2021 Report Share Posted January 21, 2021 Here's who is gonna retire Brock Parker Boudreaux was backstage at last night’s WWE NXT taping, according to Fightful Select. There’s no word on if Parker is having talks with WWE, but it was noted that WWE has their eyes on him. The University of Central Florida football player recently made pro wrestling headlines as Paul Heyman praised him in a tweet, which you can see below. “His tweet is not a prediction. It’s a spoiler. Save this #HustleTweet for future historical reference. @ParkerBoudreaux,” Heyman wrote in response to Parker’s comments on how 2021 will be a special year for him. The 6-foot-4 300 pound offensive lineman has been compared to Brock Lesnar, and even calls himself “The Next Big Thing” as Lesnar was once called. It will be interesting to see what happens with Boudreaux as he previously told Lucha Libre Online that he would be joining a pro wrestling company. Stay tuned for more.

Counting Lights Posted January 29, 2021 Report Share Posted January 29, 2021 Meiko going to UK is so weird Link to comment
Monarch98 Posted January 29, 2021 Report Share Posted January 29, 2021 1 hour ago, Counting Lights said: Meiko going to UK is so weird Likely due to travel restrictions between US and Europe, besides the UK roster needs some depth in the Women's division. Link to comment
Lunchbox Posted January 29, 2021 Report Share Posted January 29, 2021 Meiko going to WWE is really cool. Link to comment
PaperThinWalls Posted January 30, 2021 Report Share Posted January 30, 2021 Did Regal's kid wrestle any NJPW matches? Or was he just training at their dojo? Link to comment

Ziggy Vercetti Posted February 5, 2021 Report Share Posted February 5, 2021 Top prospect Parker Boudreaux has reportedly signed a developmental deal to work WWE NXT. Boudreaux recently made pro wrestling headlines after receiving a nod from Paul Heyman. He also appeared in social media photos with Eva Marie at her Royal Rumble Viewing Party in California last week. Now the Wrestling Observer Newsletter reports that Boudreaux has signed a developmental deal with WWE. Boudreaux has reportedly quit the University of Central Florida football team to pursue a career in pro wrestling. He missed last season due to a concussion, but was to come back in 2021 for his senior year. The school just released their roster for next season and Parker was not included, and then they confirmed that he left the team. The 6-foot-4 and 301 pound Boudreaux, who has been compared to a young Brock Lesnar, was backstage for the January 20 NXT TV show, but there’s no word yet on when he will make his debut. Stay tuned for more on Parker’s WWE status. Link to comment
EJ! Posted February 5, 2021 Report Share Posted February 5, 2021 hopefully the face push is still in the cards. Cesaro has reportedly agreed to a new deal with WWE. Cesaro has been on main roster WWE television since 2012, in the last nine years, he has won a multitude of championships, helped launch the modern-day NXT brand, yodeled, lost his first name, and continuously shined in every role to the best of his ability. Recently, a report from WrestlingInc. noted that Cesaro’s WWE contract would be expiring after WrestleMania but a new report from Dave Meltzer in the latest Wrestling Observer Newsletter, states that Cesaro has agreed to a new deal with WWE. While it is unclear as of this writing whether he has only verbally agreed or signed a new contract, Cesaro agreed to this deal several weeks ago. The timing of his agreeing to the deal is reportedly after the Gauntlet Match held on WWE SmackDown to determine who would challenge Roman Reigns at the Royal Rumble event. Dave Meltzer reports that Cesaro was slated for the huge push that Shinsuke Nakamura received in the match, noting that the idea for a new babyface to be made by Going the distance and getting screwed by Roman Reigns at the end of the match was a Daniel Bryan idea and the original pitch was to have Cesaro in that role instead of Shinsuke Nakamura. Fightful will continue to monitor the story and report any and all updates. You can see all up-to-date contract information in our contract expiration date resource. Link to comment
