    Never seen Session moth

    She spells it Moth but yeah you get the idea. Dublin party girl gimmick

    Meltzer saying that Session Moth Martina is signing with NXT UK.

    Pretty cool having so much Irish talent in WWE these days. Becky, Finn, Sheamus, Devlin and now Martina.

    Devlin should get out, he's far too good to be doing nothing in NXT UK

    Is Big Damo stuck in WWE limbo these days not on a main show and not back down on NXT.

    My prediction is that Cole and Corey won’t ever have to commentate on her matches to be honest. I don’t rate her really but she’s done well for herself.

    Agree with Pent. She's sound and all and tries hard but she's not that polished by any means. She's a good fit for OTT and the indies but I don't think the gimmick or style translates well outside.

    Well this week's NXT UK
    Pretty much confirms Sanity's finished with Alexander Wolf making his debut

    scarlett is released from impact not sure were she could end up never seen who wrestle properly but certainly has the looks to make it in wwe especially with their penchant for blonde women

    AEW, I'm guessing. They're a tier up in what they're allowed to get away with on TV. Think they're TV-14 while WWE is PG.

    20 years ago Vince would be on that like a rash though.

    Scarlett is decent in ring and most importantly willing. She has the scope to improve.

    She'll at least get an offer; her boyfriend Killer Kross probably won't be far behind either.
    Even though Impact has a strong women's division ahead is miles off their best workers but would work as a manager.
    Probably a good move from Impact as they seemed to complain about pay as Impact work a few days a month it ain't close to as high as it once was but I did get a laugh out of Ethan Page just saying that you can work those dates elsewhere. Eg they signed Laredo Kid to a few dates who is also teaming with the Lucha Bros at Fyter Fest.

    Lars Sullivan is out for 6-9 months with a pretty serious knee injury, according to Meltzer.

    Regardless of the old discriminatory quotes he was punished for recently, it sucks to see that happening to anyone.

    Yeah some guys have no luck regarding injuries. How they will explain an unstoppable freak got hurt is going to be interesting?? Maybe we might see a new direction for his character

    Flinging minorities around the ring is taxing on the body.

    He used to wear a knee brace when he was first on television in NXT. Wonder if it was the same problem. Can't remember many that wore knee braces that stopped wearing them.

    Has Becky stopped wearing hers after that devastating knee injury?

    Big guys are susceptible to such injuries especially if they're sent out there before they're ready. Lars really is the personification of Vince's worst indulgences.

    Considering his push was going over as well as dogpoo in your shoes, from a creative and character pov it might not be the worst thing to have to do a reset with him in 6-9 months

    Sucks for the dude himself obviously, but might not be the worst thing long term


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,093 ✭✭✭ThePott


    Back for the Rumble maybe?
    Don't give a toss about Lars though same as most.

    Mojo Rawley has apparently resigned for another 5 years doodling on himself in WWE catering.

    This would be a great time if JTG was still with the company.

    What's the average yearly wage for a WWE wrestler these days?

    $500k?


    Well then it's a no brainer for these guys to sign a 5 year deal take the money and run and phone it in every night you are there what are they going to do fire you.

    If my boss offered me €500k a year to essentially show to work and do no work while they put over someone less qualified and experienced to me I would be so fn happy... all of the pay for none of the stress.

    It's definitely a no brainer for the likes of Mojo and Mike and Maria. They would probably struggle to get indie bookings and there's no guarantee that any of the other feds would offer them a deal at all.

    Bit of a shame because it's not like we're talking about woefully bad workers here. Some of these folks are fairly solid but WWE just made a complete hames of them and stopped putting them on TV regularly so they have zero chance of getting over even a little bit now.
