Time for Corny to start shitting on the NWA!

nachobro · « **Reply #9901 on:** November 20, 2019, 10:57:43 AM »

he's probably not too surprised. on a recent show he mentioned dave lagana saying he was on thin ice after his other comments

I like that the press release is formatted as if its part of kayfabe:

Quote

Effective immediately: Jim Cornette has resigned from the National Wrestling Alliance. As an announcer on the November 19th edition of NWA Power, Jim made remarks during a singles match between Nick Aldis and Trevor Murdoch that were both offensive and do not meet the high standards of decency and good faith of the National Wrestling Alliance.

To ensure that such an error can never happen again, we've established new procedures of review for all NWA programming going forward.

We sincerely regret our failure in this regard.

People used to be able to sometimes pick up the live feeds from satellites for I think usually Smackdown when it wasn't airing live and you'd get similar stuff with the live pretapes with errors, all off air stuff, off mic stuff, sometimes Vince screaming shit in the headphones.

And since they didn't announce the 4th member of Team Ciampa, being that Punk just returned and the show is in Chicago, they're going to have to pull a real surprise to have the crowd not get pissed it isn't Punk.

It's weird to leave that to a match time reveal, because it has to be huge or people are gonna shit on it. And there really aren't many options that could get the

reaction.

Garagno is on the shelf
Dream would get a good reaction and would make sense as the last time he was seen was losing the title to Strong, but I have no idea what his status is (still not clear if he's serving a Wellness suspension or has an injury, I believe it was reported as an injury but there have been no updates and he's been gone for 2 months, which would line up with a second Wellness suspension if rumors are to be believed)
CM Punk would be the ultimate reaction in Chicago but I can't imagine they're already asking him to get back in the ring and especially for something like that

To my knowledge there haven't been any big time indie star signings recently or any particularly big names that haven't made it to TV yet, and the Kushida/Swerve/Tyler Bate level guys seem like they'd be a let down as well. I would say Velveeta Dream would be the most logical and likely, but I don't actually know his status.

They prob have to run a ton to make any green. Wasn’t their TNT deal not particularly great? Like TNT is paying for production for a big cut of the dough?

Stro · « **Reply #9933 on:** November 21, 2019, 07:48:55 PM »

No idea but they feel like they do their opening match that usually goes 15-20 minutes and then spend the next hour of the show having a break every 5 minutes

I thought the size thing was hilarious. It really highlighted how physically small most of the roster is. I don’t remember Gunn ever appearing remotely bigger than anyone in WWE. He was like average size there.

The NXT crew as well. Remember the times when Bret and HBK were considered small guys, but when you see them put up against current guys it's like wtf. Pro wrestling has to be the only athletics based profession where the participants haven't gotten smaller over the the past 40 years.

They stopped mentioning it a long time ago but Rhea's change from
