Somebody needs to start there next post with "Let me tell you something brother" followed by whatever they want to say but they must use the term Brother 45 times in three sentences.

Not a Goldberg fan, but he still gets gigantic reactions. I'm interested to see his last match against Gunther. If anyone can get something out of a 58 year old Bill Goldberg it's Gunther... Plus it gives Gunther something to do, he could use that notch on his belt. Something to keep his second reign from becoming stale.

I also love to see Asuka back. The women's division in the WWE is stacked right now.

They should bring in Bret for commentary on that match, forget about Ventura.

It sucks that Liv Morgan got hurt, she is one of the best Women in wrestling right now.

Being there live, seeing that, was awesome. I was crossing my fingers hoping Gunther would say that - in Calgary and infront of Bret Hart, who despises Goldberg to the nth degree - and he did hahaha

Goldberg's been awful in basically every match he's been since the second WM match against Brock. He also looks really, really old.

This isn't a knock on Gunther (who I like), but I think it's gonna be crap.

Should be pretty easy of a match to book though, especially since it's SNME and not some major PPV.

Goldberg rushes Gunther overpowers him, spear, jackhammer...Gunther kicks out.

Gunther does something heel-like to gain an advantage, chops him a bit, hits some offense, sleeper hold. Goodnight on Goldberg's career.

Under no circumstances should Goldberg win or get the title.

I don't understand this. From what I recall Goldberg only had a run for like a year.

This is his retirement match. They teased him and Gunther having a feud.

I read HHH didn't want it to just be an ordinary match so he had Gunther beat Jey to take the title now rather than later.

Last Saturday was another local indy show I had the pleasure of working.

It's funny, I'm just the guy that announces the wrestlers to the ring, once in a while if a storyline needs to move along I'm the commissioner (in the same way that Jack Tunney and Gorilla Monsoon were authority figures, no real power, just for the show).

Once in a while I'll have a fan ask for an autograph or picture. I always ablidge but give the caveat "Are you sure? You know I'm a nobody right?"

Then I check my facebook and see a post which solidifies the fact I'm a nobody, and I mean that with the utmost of respect.

I'll let TNA Superstar Cody Deaner's post speak for itself, but I can tell you, the fan pictured, I was best man in his wedding, the old man referenced (his father) was a true gem of a human being.

I'm happy I have a VERY small part to play in making people happy. People ask me why I like wrestling, or why I'm involved I usually say "it's fun, it's a guilty pleasure, the atheletic ability is unbelieveable, and it's fun."

I often forget how escapism, fantasy, and the hero's journey translates into reality.

If you ever get a chance to meet Cody Deaner, do it, he's a great human, and I thought that even before I read how he wrote the following post, which still has me crying.

I feel like Liv and Dom are the most improved workers in wrestling over the past two years. It's no wonder they've been paired together. I could see them booking a program where Roxanne Perez "replaces" Liv, just as they teased last month when Morgan was filming that movie.

I don't know how hard they want to lean into Dom's "Latino Heat" vibe, but they could make it a reoccurring theme of Mysterio luring other women to his side. Why not make it where Finn uses Roxanne to gain Dom's affection so Balor can take the Title off of him. Instead Perez falls for Dom, and both become baby faces by the time Liv comes back from injury. Or Liv returns and "saves" Dom by being takien advantage of by Balor and Perez? It sounds like the plot out of a bad movie, yet Mysterio is killing it in his current gimmick. So why change it?

The big thing with Liv is that she just keeps improving and she found her stride as a character. Not a great injury with a seperated shoulder, but it should only keep her out of the ring for about 4 to 6 months, but she can at least keep working with Mysterio which is great.


I remember watching one of the shows on the Network, table for three and they had Liv on with a couple of other woman, and they all said that Liv worked her ass off and did everything to learn the business and it shows.

Never ever turn Dom to face, he's amazing as a heel, and he seems to really enjoy it to the point that he got heat at his own wedding.


People want to see him get punched in the face, not fighting up from underneath.

Cena is one of the most naturally gifted promo people that I've ever seen. It feels like its spontaneous and off the cuff and has meaning.


But I knew what was going to happen when Cena turned heel and it happened last night. People started cheering for Him as he buried Punk.

Hmmmmmmmmm... are they hinting at a double turn at NoC? Punk sells his soul to the Rock and leaves Riyadh with the title. I would love to see it happen.
