    PWInsider:
    WWE informed all of their announcers this week to refer to their talent as "entertainers" as opposed to wrestlers or even Superstars, effective immediately.

    :rolleyes:

    A really telling sign of the direction WWE seems to be intent on travelling on.

    It's been ridiculous for several years, it's only now that they're making it that obvious.

    I REALLY liked the handle of Superstars. :mad:

    Looks like Charlie Hass has been one step ahead for the last while so. And to think we just thought his gimmick was ****.

    I hope WWE fires Kane as he isnt entertaining.

    What a prick...

    Your life revolves around wrestling. You're not entertaining. Jesus, let the Kane thing go. Build a bridge, mate...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,602 ✭✭✭✭ShawnRaven


    What a prick...

    Why? Because he has an opinion that you don't share?
    It's a discussion forum, that's what it's all about, if you don't like it, go back to wherever you came from!

    They can give him a send off, maybe not as big as Flairs due to accomplishment differences, but they can give him a box of Zip firelighters or something so that he can set him-sellllfff onn fyyyyyrrree!

    Also they can lump in Santino into the skip, because he hasn't been entertaining in a LONG time!

    Lol given the crappy excuse of a band you "play" in, you're really not in any position to slag off anyone's musical tastes.

    Now, back on topic.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 73 ✭✭PretentiousApe


    Hardly.

    Considering I have a life.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,202 ✭✭✭✭callaway92


    True.

    Considering I have no life.

    FYP;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,602 ✭✭✭✭ShawnRaven


    Hardly.

    Yes, you're certainly proving that by arguing with someone you don't know on a pro wrestling forum, and then trying to use the same said thing as ammunition for the opposition in a slagging match.

    Good one kid, as i said before, if you've a problem with me, take it to a PM, but quit destroying threads for those who actually do want to talk Pro Wrestling.

    Thanks

    Yep, I'm fed up with wrestling and the shit on this forum. BTW, the italicised 'i' was just a way of getting around the swear filter.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,602 ✭✭✭✭ShawnRaven


    I have to say i'm feeling the same way as well. The last year or so in Pro Wrestling hasn't been much fun for me either. And the muppetry metre went off the scale this week in this very forum unfortunately. :(


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 23,089 ✭✭✭✭rovert


    I didnt know Minto returned

    Yeah, people who have an opposing opinion are bullies, right! :)
    Hey Rovert? Did you get the memo about being on the cover for the sequel for Canis Canim Edit game cover?

    Neither did I! :)

    Ha.


    i find it hilarious how kane was mentioned Brought up in 4 completely separate threads this week.

    How random-ish was that?

    Next week we'll all be talking about David Arquette!

    (wait, no sorry.
    I just remembered the excellence that is AWR is all next week...)

    Ok the week AFTER that we will.

    I actually found it tragic that Kane destroyed four threads in one week.
    Kane - Stinking up as many threads as often as he stinks up rings!
