Always wondered why 500? Like what's the criteria for separating 431st spot with 432nd?

To be fair to Dave he reported based on Enzo and Cass' direct word, and openly accepted there was no story to it when he reached out to WWE for comment. An open and shut case of Journalist given information from a direct source, tried to verify it with the company and confirmed the result once they responded.

Enzo, I believe.

Cass? You can be sure Vince wants that beef, especially with the shape he's in now.

He also shot down Dave Meltzer's theory that Vince will be involved with NXT.

I saw that quote from triple h and laughed. He says there is no interest in enzo and big cass but then in the second part leaves cass out of his shot at enzo which I take to mean there might be an interest in cass on his own.

leggo · 31-08-2019 1:51pm

Or he just didn’t want to take a public dig at him because he felt this was coming from Enzo. Or maybe the story is on-point and he had to come out strong to throw people off again because it was supposed to be a surprise.

Thats a shame seemed to have lots of potential

CastorTroy · 02-09-2019 11:04am

That is a shame. She comes across as really likeable as well in her videos. But if it's for long term health reasons when she relies a lot on her agility, then she made the right choice. Especially since I'm sure she discussed it with Ricochet who would have similar concerns at times and would be more familiar with such injuries in the industry.

Though the WWEPC youtube channel loses their biggest contributor now.

Should do it like the older drafts where both GMs come out and make picks each. The way it's done now is a load of shíte.

CastorTroy · 04-09-2019 9:39pm

They realised they can't rely on the wild card rule to get guys on both shows so now have to commit?

I wonder will we see some been left out and they will go back to NXT ???. Lots of Male and female talent could do with going back down and with the new 2 hour show would be much so more suited

Ric Flair and WWE at odds over "The Man" trademark. He says it is his and is willing to let Becky use it but just wants to be paid by WWE for its usage. Says Charlotte is upset at him about it but has filed a trademark claim for "The Man" to force WWE's hand.

https://www.tmz.com/2019/09/05/ric-flair-wwe-the-man-becky-lynch-triple-h-charlotte-flair/

The first nickname that comes to mind for me when thinking of Flair is "The Nature Boy" and Ric borrowed that from Buddy Rogers. It's the circle of life in wrestling, eventually gimmicks get used again.

The White Wolf · 05-09-2019 3:11pm

Wouldn't say Flair is all there these days. Strange thing to do.

Agent Coulson · 05-09-2019 3:17pm

Flair just needs money I’d say I have more money in my pocket than he does these days in his bank account.

It was suspiciously smart of whoever got him to trademark 'the man' for use in wrestling considering it's a key part of one of his more famous catchphrases.

Itssoeasy · 05-09-2019 3:59pm

What a stupid case by flair. I mean how can he claim to own the phrase "the man" ? His quote was/is "to be the man, you have to beat the man." If ric things he has a case, then the family of buddy rodgers will be in touch with him about back royalties to the name "nature boy." Does ric even have the money to go against the WWE and jerry mcdivittt ? He's been in financial trouble nearly as often as he's been a world champion or married over the years. And it seems his annoyed his daughter which isn't good.

Agent Coulson · 05-09-2019 4:21pm

Is Flair under a Legends contract?

I'm surprised AEW haven't tried to bring him in for the 4 Horsemen storyline going on.

CastorTroy · 05-09-2019 6:52pm

Isn't Bret Hart under Legends contract? Yet he was at AEW

Agent Coulson · 05-09-2019 11:16pm

I see ROH are now blocking there talent from Starrcast events.

sirmanga · 06-09-2019 4:13pm

Don't see what the problem is with Flair filing a lawsuit about "The Man" name. If he does in fact have it trademarked, he'd be stupid not to sue.

And to those saying that Flair is a hypocrite because he uses the Nature Boy moniker, well that is only relevant if the Buddy Rogers estate has a trademark on "Nature Boy" which, to my knowledge, it doesn't.

WWE do this kind of thing themselves, including blocking the Dudleys and Cody Rhodes from using WWE trademarks. Why are fans getting on Flair's case over his lawsuit? It must be because it involves their darling, Becky Lynch.

If flair had had it trademarked for years I'd say something but from looking on the US trademark site, he only applied for it in august this year so he's clearly reacting to the WWE having it trademarked. The man as he used it was part of a longer quote he used to say. His nickname is the nature boy not the man.

NITRO95 · 06-09-2019 4:26pm

Well, if he only applied for it in August, yes that is petty of him.

Ever since Flair had his medical troubles he's come across as very bitter, saying things like he remembers who came to visit him in hospital and who didn't. He fell out with HBK because HBK didn't come to see him in hospital and because of the home truths uttered by Shawn in the 30 for 30 documentary.

J. Marston · 06-09-2019 4:48pm

Strikes me as the type of guy who is in vast amounts of debt and is looking for avenues out of it.

I think "The Man" is far too general a term to trademark anyway.

If he had Conrad in his life 20 years ago he'd living very comfortably these days.

The White Wolf · 06-09-2019 6:11pm

Flair is a strange anomaly in that while he didn't go off the rails like many of his counterparts, he's very much lived the gimmick.

His delusion about this situation is very much in line with that gimmick. I'm sure he absolutely believes he's being shafted on this.

For better or worse Flair is Flair and people seem to love him for it; just watch his speech when the horsemen were inducted as an example of this.

Saw on Reddit that Dana Brooke and Sarah Logan are in the middle of a best of 7 series on Main Event with Dana pulling off Swanton Bombs.

Sounds like a peculiar show!

Watched an episode lately and Eric Young was on it. It's weird he still comes out to the Sanity music as does Nikki Cross when there's no association between them anymore.

Having read a report it doesn't sound like it's alcohol related. It sounds more serious than that(not that alcohol issues aren't serious) he seemed to snap back to reality according to the report after getting punched and knocked down.
