Official Wrestling News Thread

The costcutting in World Wrestling Entertainment has not ended, PWInsider.com has confirmed.

A number of executives and officials were informed over the last 48 hours that their pay would be reduced going forward due to the company's ongoing efforts to respond to the COVID-19 pandemic's effect on their business.

WWE announced last month, in a press release, that their measures would include:

*Reducing executive and board member compensation.

*Decreasing operating expenses.

*Cutting talent expenses, third party staffing and consulting.

*Deferring spend on the build out of the Company’s new headquarters for at least six months.

The company has already furhloughed a great percentage of the company across every division as well as cut a number of talents, producers and third-parties who had worked for and with WWE. WWE has noted internally that they hoped those furhloughed would return in July, but there is no word whether that timeline remains accurate.

No sir......everybody dont dislike her because she hurt ar poor little favorites....but getting people injured is just an added thing, she is trash in the ring, not ring ready ever huffing and puffin all over, and has zero craft or technique. Valid reasons not just because everybody favorite Kairi got hurt. She is a big chick who really has zero wrestling talent who is put in a position because she hot family wreatling ties.

But like I said .... SHE. IS . NOT. LIKE. MOST. GIRLS .

 
Nia damn near 40

And she has knee injuries...

Shorty ain't going to NXT.... If she not main roster material they gonna just cut her...


But she still gets play... And some fans do like her... Her included.

She just need to stick the monster move set and not anything that might hurt someone

I read that Kari might have tried to over sell the steel step spot and ended up hurt, we'll just have to see.

I heard that too and she hit the edge of the steps that resulted in bleeding. It can’t be all on Nia if that’s the case
 
yea, like the day after that article came out I saw another that said she may of stumbled into the steps while she was trying to avoid them for the spot
 
The spot was Nia Irish Whipping Kairi into the steps. That article said she MAY have stumbled which sounds like BS. Either she stumbled or she didn't. With that said gotta see what happened even though we know they editing it up. Kairi sane hasn't really been known to oversell and Nia already has a history of injuring the woman so let's see.

World Wrestling Entertainment has opted to remove powerbombs into the turnbuckles aka bucklebombs from the list of authorized moves used by talents during in-ring performances, PWInsider.com has confirmed with multiple sources.

The move led to the retirement of WWE Hall of Famer Sting after he was hit with the move by Seth Rollins several years ago after the brunt of the move led to injury and the discovery that Sting was suffering from spinal stenosis. Several weeks ago, Kairi Sane took a scary bump into the buckles while wrestling Nia Jax as well.

While the move is no longer allowed, there have been other moves that were eliminated only to return later on, including the shooting star press and Seth Rollins' signature stomp. There are other moves, including the piledriver, that have been and remain banned from usage in the ring.

I always thought that shyt was dangerous to begin wit.
 
Wrestlingnews.co is reporting that everyone internally suspects that Kurt Angle is coming back to WWE for good. He is in the midst of a 90-day no compete clause that ends sometime in July. A WWE source said, “If they haven’t signed him already then they will make an offer to him soon. Vince doesn’t want to lose him to AEW.” WWE executives believe that Angle would not attempt to wrestle anywhere else but is still a big name that would draw viewers anywhere he went.

Kurt was said to be happy with his backstage role so all signs point to him returning if he is offered a similar or better deal than before.

Its basically shit you would find for free on wwe.com. This doesnt offer all ppvs now and then(think they just highlight one or 2 on the free), plus all the other special programming they have isnt available..
 
Lines are being drawn in the sand. Which side are you on?

Forreal man fuck Nia Jax for this shit. I'm tired of this irresponsible ass chick man. Like if you have a history being durpy in the ring, all that time away you could have review film, worked on conditioning, and moves. To still do this shit shows she just don't give a fuck or is stupid. I won't call or stupid so she don't give a fuck.
