For how they book 205 Live, I wouldn't pay $5 at my local gym to see it.

 

[Kimi]

If they get to have good matches, then it'll probably be a really good show. The roster is extremely good.

But it's 205, the division was dead before it even happened. Then it got more dead with the terrible booking and generic matches, and even more dead when the only two guys who looked like stars left the company. And still more dead when Enzo became a thing. So if the show doesn't draw it wouldn't be a surprise.

Mojo Rawley's online promos reportedly got a lot of praise and he's in line for a mid-card push now because of them.

 

[SeidoN]

thats gonna fail hard when they try to script what worked unscripted

Imagine that... praise for non scripted promos.

Who'd a thunk it?

Vince McMahon is reportedly open to selling the WWE after UFC's sale last year for $4-billion.

alright guys lets start a gofundme

If someone were to offer him silly money for it. Don't remove context.

Did you completely omit the "after UFC's sale of $4-billion" when you read my post?

 

[PeterSidorkiewicz]

The UFC sold for four billion? Damn. I didn’t realize how huge it is I’ve been to some PPVs since my friend likes but I hang out with all the girlfriends because I find it incredibly boring.

I remember I went to a couple live Toughman shows way back in the day in lkke high school, those were funny because everything was allowed but nutshots.

Meltzer says Deans injury is legit

 

[M.C.G. 31]

Randy Orton's going to be taking extended time off in the New Year. He's currently scheduled to work a light schedule in January, have February and March off, and then is scheduled to have the May European tour off.

So no WrestleMania?

He’ll be back for that.

Apparently Dean Ambrose may have had his injury going back to after TLC and it may be a triceps tear.

So surreal knowing Dean Ambrose is out with an injury considering the workhorse he is.

I posted about the Ambrose injury in the spoiler thread, wasn't sure if it was a spoiler or not.

Could be out 4-6 months if he needs surgery??? Hoping he's back for Mania to take on Rollins. Their storyline was going well till the stupid botched Shield reunion

 

[M.C.G. 31]

Not if he needs surgery -- he's having exploratory surgery tonight and they're going to repair whatever they have to when they get in there.

 

[Kimi]

Even if he 'could' be back, WWE won't rush him. They'll wait until he's 100%, they've been really good about that recently.

 

[M.C.G. 31]

Dean Ambrose had successful surgery to repair his triceps. 50% of his triceps was torn off the bone so they rolled it down and reattached it and removed all the extra bursa tissue.

He started light physical therapy today but there's no timetable for his return yet.

Still makes me really sad that: a) the ironman is out with an actual injury and not to film a movie, and b) he's probably going to end up missing Wrestlemania where he would have been able to have a standout match and long program building up to it with Rollins and his heel turn.

 

[BonMorrison]

That sucks about Dean. They're really gonna slow burn that heel turn now. He'll return in 4-5 months, resume teaming with Rollins, then turn on him. We might not see it until summer. :O

 

[Paris in Flames]

Summerslam I guess?

It shouldn't be at some B or C level PPV. Seth and Dean are likely at their best when working together - whether it be as a team or against each other. It's definitely the best Dean ever was.

 

[Bubba Thudd]

They can play it that Dean blames Seth for the injury...

 

[SeidoN]

Seth and Jordan are teaming for the titles on the house circuit smh

 

[The Gongshow]

Seth and Jordan are teaming for the titles on the house circuit smh

Probably gonna get Seth vs Jordan at Mania now. LOL They'll just copy and paste the Dean/Seth plan with Jordan now

 

[Paris in Flames]

Seth vs Jordan in a PPV match that gets 20 minutes would actually be a really, really good match so...that's not awful but yeah. Seth is better than that.

 

[SeidoN]

first hour of XMAS RAW and the whole Boxing Day Smackdown will be commercial-free
