Took that elbow drop like a pro!

But I can’t help but wonder how you got knocked out from a low blow/chop block

Well you see, when you have an extremely large *redacted* and you get hit there by a low blow all the blood rushes to the affected area, causing one to pass out.

10 releases in NXT.


https://wrestlingheadlines.com/backs...-harland-more/


Quote:
A total of 10 WWE NXT talents were released today – Dexter Lumis, Malcolm Bivens, Dakota Kai, Harland, Persia Pirotta, Raelyn Divine, Draco Anthony, Vish Kanya, Mila Malani, Blair Baldwin.

Dextor Lumis had a major push for a while, but really there wasn't much for him. The big release to me is Kai who they could bring into AEW with Tegan Nox (Nixon Newell) those two would give a really good boost to the AEW woman's division since both of them can put on great matches, and Newell is someone that you just want to cheer on.

Are there any decent local promotions to watch in Calgary?

I think it would be fun to watch one live and have a pint or two.

I heard about Can-Am Wrestling. It was new last year, but I don't know how well it is doing or how often it is doing shows.

We have Pure Power Wrestling down here in Lethbridge. They put on regular shows in Lethbridge. Pure Power has been around for over a decade.

Sadly, I could probably give you some suggestions Ontario-East but pretty much everyone I've met has worked in this half of the country.

Actually, I know a guy pretty well that likely would know...


Edit: I'm told anything with Johnny Devine, Heavy Metal, Michael Richard Blais, or Reverso on it would be a good show

I remember when Stampede Wrestling re-started in the late 90's (local TV deal and everything), and the main guys at that time were Johnny Devine, Principal Richard Pound (my favourite), William Butler Yates, Greg "Pistol" Pawluk, etc.... that was such a fun time!

Went a few times when they came to Lethbridge. Former Stamp Marvin Pope was in there too. Ed Gatzky, the Gothic Knight was a local favourite, he also bought some Sega Genesis games off me I had advertised in local trader. You could say Jonny Devine “made it”.

Yeah he was part of Scott D'Amore's Team Canada in TNA alongside Petey Williams, Bobby Roode and Eric Young wasn't he?

Man, that era Petey Williams would be so good in AEW today.

Ed Gatzky was a beast of a man! I saw him before the pandemic and he isn't in the same shape anymore but he used to be so big and bulky. He's a bit bigger now but not so muscular. Kinda hard for so many people to maintain their look as they age.

My Boss (at that time), a small 5'5" lady, was very intimidated by him. I was in awe of how big and built he was and I asked him how he got to be so muscular. He wasn't much for small talk that day and just said "I dabbled with weights". One coworker was excited to see "The Gothic Knight" but kept his distance waiting to tell me who that gigantic man was after he left. I was a much bigger fan in those days and I would have done a better job striking up conversation if I had known he was a wrestler.

Watched some Dynamite last night before the game.



I still think its a bit over booked. The match between Storm and Hayter was a bit weird, Hayter I like she's got a great look, but when did Toni become that slow and hesitant?


I love Moxley, I still love Jericho, but I remember reading his book and his interview where he talked about hating booked cool heels that fans cheer for, and how its bad for business, and there he is literally being the cool heel. But thought it was cool to see the comfrontation between the JAS and basically the whole rest of the Roster, its what WCW should have done more of with the NWO.



Since I haven't watched, why oh why do they have what is basically the undisputed era hanging out with the Young Bucks. I mean why do they need to glom those two idiots with someone like Cole who needs to carry a faction on his own.



From a wrestling perspective, AEW is very good, for god sakes they have the roster for it. But from a story telling standpoint, its just all over the map and to me is still too gimmicky.

Yeah, when it started I thought TSN had screwed up and started showing an actual episode of Dark Side of the Ring. When I realized what was going on I started laughing. The reenactment of Wardlow with the ring killed me. Babyface MJF is so interesting.

I totally skipped ahead when I saw Darkside of the Ring as I assumed it was a commercial for the show. Then when I realized it wasn't I went back.

It was GOLD.

"Wait is this FOR MJF? I'm not narrating for that a**hole after all we've been through! How much is he paying? Ok. AWE's greatest star of all time..."

I can answer this. They're building to an eventual UE vs. The Elite feud once Kenny is back from injury. They've been teasing it for months. My only issue with that is it likely means The Elite are turning face, and The Bucks should always be heels, IMO.

Following the Tammy Sytch story, her bond was revoked yesterday and she was returned to pre-trial custody as the Judge figures its the only way to protect the public from her.


More facts - Her BA level was three times the legal limit. She had an unsealed bottle of Vodka in the car with her.


I would almost expect at this point, that Tammy will plead guilty and get a deal and probably be put away from somewhere between the minimum of 3 years and 10 years to avoid the max 30 year sentence.


https://wrestlingheadlines.com/sunny...court-hearing/


There are clearly serious mental issues with Tammy, her life is a train wreck and has been that way since before her exit from WWE, unfortunately the Wrestle Community encouraged it, and that's on Vince, and Paul Heyman, and WCW and all of the personalities that interacted with her.



But this is on her, she never asked for real help, instead she denied her problems and spiraled into bad decisions and bad relationships.


And now she's flat out killed a guy.
