First topic message reminder :

I totally understand that the majority of you may dislike or have never seen any form of Independent Wrestling so turn a blind eye to it but I truly believe this is such a powerful promo hyping something that we all share here...

This is Mike Quackenbush, founder of Chikara Pro and I quite frankly consider him to be one of the best storytellers in the business. Enjoy.

Kassius 'Chris Hero' Ohno will be competing in Progress SSS16 tournament!

by Marky Tue 17 Apr 2018, 11:02 pm

When WWE's Kassius freaking Ohno is the penultimate announcement for SSS16, it makes you wonder how massive the final announcement is.

I think it'll be Neville/Pac.

Apparently there will be 3 Money in the Bank contracts this year. A mens, a womens and a tag team

3 ladder matches on a ppv, hopefully not overkill...

Randy Orton has had minor knee surgery and its likely to be out until just before Summerslam

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Thu 24 May 2018, 7:49 pm

From the latest Observer

While this has been said before, including at a WWE Investors call, and Vince McMahon changed his mind on it, right now the idea of ICW and Progress from the U.K. going to the WWE Network is back on, at least this week. But this is close enough that we’ve been told the announcement, if it happens, would be coming right around the time or at the Royal Albert Hall shows

We’ve been through this before, but it seems to have more momentum this time with all the talk recently of the tiered Network

Mike Johnson of PWInsiderElite.com commented on Big Cass' status with WWE. Here is what Johnson said courtesy of RingsideNews.com:
"Nothing is working for Colin Cassidy right now. He’s back on crutches. From what I understand he’s going to go check out to see if he needs ACL surgery again. If that’s the case, that is bad, bad news for him."

by Fernando Wed 30 May 2018, 11:06 am

If get spare time today go watch Murphy vs Cedric on 205live for the CW Title. It's very very good Ok!

i think Vince Russo is now in AAA, the following is taken from the Squared Circle Reddit:

JEFF JARRETT wins the triple threat between Mysterio & Rey Wagner, originally scheduled to just be a dream match between Rey and Rey until Jeff Jarrett unmasked and joined the big heel faction earlier in the night. The ref turns heel in favor of JJ in the middle of the match, so gets knocked out by Wagner. La Parka comes to the rescue dressed as a ref but he turns heel also, allowing Jeff Jarrett to pin Wagner to win the AAA Mega Title.

La Parka unmasks to reveal himself as Konnan. Afterwards REY FENIX WHO WAS SUPPOSEDLY GONE AND GOING TO CMLL, SCHEDULED TO WORK CMLL ON FRIDAY, comes out and takes out all the heels.

tl;dr- Konnan in La Parka cosplay makes himself ref of the main event to help Jeff Jarrett win the main title. And either Fenix screwed CMLL or he's somehow working with mega-enemies at the same time.

Colt Cabana suing CM Punk over claims Punk promised to take care of his (colt's) legal bills and has subsequently told him he's on his own.

CM Punk is so likeable, can see why they chant his name.

by Samo Fri 10 Aug 2018, 8:55 pm

WWE pushing a ‘whodunnit’ angle involving Aliester Black. Seems he wont be fit enough to make it to TakeOver.

Whether someone else takes his place or they go ahead with Gargano vs Ciampa 3 is yet to be announced.

by Fernando Fri 10 Aug 2018, 11:27 pm

Literally announced yesterday it's Gargano vs Ciampa - Last Man Standing Samo tomato

Black got injured at a house show when Ciampa crotched him on the top rope required surgery to his groin.

My bad.

Interesting that the BBC reports on Meltzer & his body shaming of Peyton Royce but sites like Bleacher Report keep away from it. Women's Revolution ain't complete yet.

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Sat 18 Aug 2018, 3:20 am

Not sure why the BBC would report on it.

by Samo Sat 18 Aug 2018, 10:13 am

The whole things been blown way out of proportion anyway. Its amazing what a 54 second out of context clip can do.

by Dr Gregory House MD Sat 25 Aug 2018, 5:45 pm

Ben ‘Adrian ‘PAC’ Neville’ Satterley is no longer under contract to WWE

Give me PAC v Ospreay into my veins!! Finally the battle of north v South can be decided properly through the medium of flips!

Renee Young is being promoted to the RAW announce team full time, while Coach is being moved to the pre show panel

There a new Cell design being debuted tonight. Not entirely sure how I feel about it.

by Fernando Sun 16 Sep 2018, 12:33 pm

I quite like it actually although it looks a lot less dangerous nowadays compared to the old structure

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Mon 17 Sep 2018, 7:51 am

The red wasn’t any sort of visual obstruction, like people online were moaning it would be

by Samo Mon 17 Sep 2018, 10:48 am

I saw the photos online and didnt think it would be any more of an obstrution, my biggest problem is it looks more like a toy now. And I had a chuckle at the people asking for the old Blue Bar cage back, as if that wasnt an obstruction.

by Marky Thu 20 Sep 2018, 10:47 am

I recommend anyone to check out Pete Dunne v Ricochet from NXT and Cedric Alexander v Drew Gulak from 205 (not) Live this week, two incredible matches.

by Dr Gregory House MD Thu 20 Sep 2018, 6:03 pm

Meltzer has apparently given Goto v Taichi from Destruction -1 star Laugh

Seems extremely harsh, I went about 3

Also ****3/4 seems generous for Omega/Ishii but who am I to tell someone what to like

by Samo Fri 28 Sep 2018, 11:55 pm

Its been announced that Evolution will reunite for SmackDown 1000.

All aboard the hype train.

by Marky Sat 29 Sep 2018, 8:03 am

Wait. Evolution (the group) and Evolution (the PPV) in the same month? WWE not helping themselves.

by Marky Sat 29 Sep 2018, 8:03 am

Although on a serious note I am hoping for an Evolution/New Day segment

by Dr Gregory House MD Tue 02 Oct 2018, 1:32 pm

PAC fka Neville has resurfaced in Dragon Gate

by Samo Tue 02 Oct 2018, 2:26 pm

Still looks in great shape. Glad he didnt fall out of love with the business. We might get him vs Ospreay yet.

by JoshSansom Fri 05 Oct 2018, 10:41 am

Mr Bootyworth was Dewey Foley

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Fri 05 Oct 2018, 12:43 pm
