Scott Steiner collapsed backstage at Impact tapings, but he's doing ok. Thousands of freaks breathed great sighs of relief.

He's a genetic freak, so he has a 141 2/3's chance of survival.

Just got a bad idea in my head to have my blank Michigan hockey jersey customized with STEINER 141 2/3. And I'd wear that to Wrestlemania next year.

Hi, Pat McAfee.

I saw that with Gronk. That could be interesting to see, I wonder how they'll use him.

Give him a huge (undeserved) push, he'll fall flat, they'll cram him down our throats (ala Reigns)

 

[Chris Pronger]

He will get injured on his first bump

 

[ColePens]

AEW and NXT exist. Always remember

Gronk and mojo as tag champs within 3 months I bet.

There are reports that WWE is moving Friday’s Smackdown and 205 Live to the performance center, but a WWE statement claims that it is a contingency plan for if they have to cancel (they will)

Scott Steiner collapsed backstage at Impact tapings, but he's doing ok. Thousands of freaks breathed great sighs of relief.

So, I met up with a friend of mine who manages a bunch of area entertainment venues in Atlanta including the Roxy where the taping was. He got called to the back and saw the whole thing. He said that he actually flat-lined and had to be fully resuscitated.

I have tickets for tomorrow night, so I've been watching this like a hawk.

From what I've read, the WWE doesn't seem interested in canceling just yet. The contingency is set up in case Michigan/Detroit/LCA/etc. decide to cancel large events.

That's worse than I had heard. Fortunately we are talking about a genetic freak here.

Vince will never cancel a monday night raw or wrestlemania

You have a 63% chance of being right but there's also a 54% chance of being wrong which means that you are probably 19% just guessing.

Wrestling's proud history of empty arena matches really works in his favour. Plus, TNA essentially did this for years. He suspended the XFL season however.

 

[Bubba Thudd]

Thing is, folks will tune in tonight just to get a laugh. They'll probably get their best ratings in a while.

It was super weird watching a match today with no crowd at all
