Wrestling News & Rumours Thread ***NO CHAT***

Mansoor said on Twitch last night that the reason that he never worked NXT TV was that he wasn't allowed to lose as part of the Saudi deal!

These two guys came up with some great pitches for themselves to do it's well worth checking out what they came up it.

Will Ospreay said today that the WWE offered RevPro £1m to buy them out however RevPro turned down the offer as they really believed in what they were doing for indy wrestling and wanted to be that revoluation.

I'm having a hard time buying that whole "wanted to be apart of a revolution" to be honest. Either they thought the offer was too low or Osprey is talking through his arse lol. Any case it's a business at the end of the day despite what they may say.

Announcing like this acknowledges AEW and their talent as well because how else would people know of her. be interesting to see what they do with her. Straight to the main roster or an NXT run to get her a bit of training? She wouldn't have the experience to adapt to any style like an indie wrestler would. But at the same time they could give her someone she can work with while having her do training in the background which we've read she's always keen to do. Didn't she used to train with the likes of Danielson in AEW?

New name?

side note: I didn't realise how long her fingers were.

Not sure about baddest but maybe the worst promo in WWE.

But yeah, the baddest b!tch against the baddest human.

But I think Rhea will be taking down Nia before Jade confronts Rhea.

Can also see her going to Smackdown since I'm sure they want to see her face off against Charlotte.

Or to make her a bigger deal, have her come in as a free agent and deciding where to go.

Two weeks ago: "There's no other place I'd want to be. He (Tony Khan) doesn't look at me as a number, he looks at me like a human being. He knows my journey and understands my purpose in the wrestling community and what I want to achieve and I don't think you can beat that. You can't beat this in a very interesting sport."

Today: "It feels great you know, I feel like I was just in preparation for the grand stage. I felt like this was always the mission. I felt like the shoe fit. I felt like this was gonna happen, honestly this is all expected so I’m excited to be here.”

I wouldn't hold it against her, she's not doing anything a large number of other out of contract stars wouldn't. It's entirely possible as well she was genuine 2 weeks ago, or wherever the original interview took place, and WWE moved very quickly to her surprise. Both can be true.

Re: Jade.

In my opinion she's green but to be fair to her she has only had 64 matches. But she has that WWE look - 5ft10, fitness body, abs, unique hair colour and black. Screams WWE.

Ha, reminds me of the reported phone call between Vince McMahon and Ted Turner. Turner rang Vince up after he bought Jim Crokett promotions and said "Vince, I'm in the 'Rasslin Business" and Vince (in his own words said in a WWE doc) replied with "Well i'm in the entertainment business" - I guess Cargill didn't get signed on her wrestling ability but her sports entertainer value and fair play to her.

Seems John Cena is heavily rumored to be in an upcoming Amazon Robocop tv series.

The part is that of a solider who gets killed in a war and becomes Robocop but it will also star Peter Weller reprising his role as the original Robocop mentoring the character. Sounds interesting.

"Dead or Alive, You Can't See Me!"

If she acts in wwe like she did for the cameras at netflix, she'll be kicked out very fast.
