I think with Shayna's style she could wrestle for much much longer. Besides the company relies on people much older nowadays, I don't think it's a big deal.

She did.



I see stone cold apologised to Bryon saxton for kicking him straight in the balls last night. Also Becky didn't waste any of the beer.

Austin made a balls (no pun intended however it works) of the first stunner and probably hurt Saxton.


The WWE can put a back catalogue PPV on every Monday and Friday for as long as this crisis lasts so they can honor their contracts with USA and FOX to put out 5 hours of TV weekly.

Was thinking it would probably be a good idea to put older shows and stuff that's popular with older fans even as Fox and USA will want the viewing numbers.

Even if you give them an hour's taped content a week to progress stories and fill the rest with popular stuff from the past rather than recent PPV stuff.

That wouldn't honour their contracts unless USA & Fox agreed to it, which seems very unlikely.

Television doesn't work that way. The Premier League can't just tell BT & Sky to air old games and call it even.

No new product, no new money.

The Ayatolla

They've probably told them 1-2 hours of old footage per week.

The White Wolf

The clips on YouTube on their channel seemed to be unusually limited. Looking grim.

I see that performers and crew are getting tested for COVID-19 before being allowed to perform in the PC. Sounds like the responsible thing to be doing.

This is half true.

COVID-19 results take days to process. They are not being tested, just evaluated by physicians. Basically medical professionals looking for signs oof symptoms.

It is of course better to do something than nothing, but given it is believed to be symptomless for 3 - 5 days, it's probably redundant.

I would say the shows will mostly be new footage including lots of video packages.

Re-airing the Rumble doesn't really count as old footage. It's a recent PPV with relevance and value now.

Put it this way - they are not going to get away with airing the Royal Rumble 2010 for 90 minutes of next weeks show.

CastorTroy

They have the Raw Elimination Chamber match or how about the Saudi gauntlet match that led to the Taker/AJ feud?

Monokne

Yeah, I can see that stuff.

PTH2009

This situation really sucks for Drew McIntyre especially

He may be getting his Wrestlemania moment in a small empty arena after all the build up of it happening in a big **** off stadium

JP Liz V1

Brock is back on Raw tonight

I must have missed AJ mentioning it but what's the relationship between Michelle McCool and Undertaker?

Oh and there's the 24/7 title. Seems if you're champ you have to wear the title everywhere and bring a cameraman with you everywhere. Must be uncomfortable jogging with it

Unholy matrimony.

J. Marston

Rollins' promo was fantastic.

No crowd is actually working well for promos. Their strict adherence to relying on cadence and letting crowds react has been relaxed.

CastorTroy

When AJ was trying to insult Taker, I was just thinking don't they all wear stretchy bottoms?

With tens of thousands of people dying around the world it would be very bad taste to call it a buried alive match.
