  1. Yeah, the idea of it needing to be ran tinpot is for the benefit of people who want to take advantage of that way of doing business. Vince did it to get a tax break and so he doesn't have to treat anyone as an employee. The big leagues make it normal and that wafts down to everything beneath.

  2. Aye, no sane cunts gonna believe for a second a wrestling company is capable of self regulation, sorry. Dunno about yous but i'm not sure I trust anybody outside either. This is the problem with nobody respecting wrestling enough to have ever given it a bit of a look for this long, by now you've got more chance regulating motorway burgers.

    I'm sure I heard Havok actually has an office job with them, dunno what it is but I think that was part of him getting employed. Part of Cody's 'Extra Credit' criteria.

    Future Jobs Fund must still be going in America

  4. The algorithm that wrote Ospreays apology reminds me that not everyone's out for some sort of black and white ILLEGAL and NOT ILLEGAL thing here. I've seen people mention it in defense, out of curiosity, every angle. People don't go to police with things like this for the same reason nobody just knocks on Vince's coffin door about it. Not keen on going into details but experiences like this can fucking destroy you and I know from experience it's less about protecting a total cunt than it is keeping people you love from going through the same grief. Stuff like this happens because of hierarchys, power, all that shit. That's work and that's police.

    It's not illegal to be a mental destructive cunt I guess but that's not somebody I want in my life, personally. Not to speak for anybody anyway, but sometimes the only justice you can get is letting people know.

  5. I had no idea they'd been accused of tampering with stocks. Yeah that's somebodys arse if this goes all the way. One of the few things you can get done for in America if you fit the Vince mould is that, that's going to be hilarious. This whole thing is, Fucking hell.

     

    EDIT - forgot who was in charge, aye they'll be sound

  6. the crowd getting into Scotty 2 Hotty and auld stinko at Backlash 2000 that has that mental avalanche DDT is good. Some absolute arse going on in those days and it made it a really exciting match

  7. You can see more Owen Hart footage than you ever could, you can watch him doing moonsaults and rope bounces directly on your shitty telephone waiting for a bus, on the Network, probably on NJPW World too? He's everywhere. People love him, people remember him. Basically every time he comes up it's with fondness

    At this point with all the information available to them on the foundations website, after this, the Jericho podcast, the podcast a few months ago that interviewed Korderas, fans who are still as hyper critical as they ever were want to chant you deserve it at Bruce and a 300 quid Chalkline jacket, nothing else. People seem to think unless there's a constant stream of trinkets or a fucking speech then nobodys arsed and there isnt some sort of weird finality to everything.

    Bret comes across similar sometimes in interviews, but i've got an endless amount of respect for him for handling this on top of everything else without going full Billy Jack Haynes or whatever. WWE's the only game in town, certainly in Bret's career. You can understand why he'd want them to handle a retrospective or doc or anything else.

    Oje put it best at the end talking about them wanting to engrave his name on a worthless silver plate. What are any of us after here? What is the point? Martha lives in a house with a keyring that his employers suspended him 80 feet in the air with stuffed into a box full of 20 year old police reports, ephemera and notes. Her old life, her husbands death is just a space on a shelf and people really want fucking Elite deluxe figures with 25 points of articulation and a DLC pack.
