Snitsky's back acne

Not gonna lie, as snazzy as that suit is I am getting Xanta Klaus vibes from Solo.

Saw a pitch online for a Bloodline Civil War  for this year’s Wargames match. Solo, Tama Tonga, Tanga Loa and Jacob Fatu vs. Roman Reigns, Jey Uso, Jimmy Uso…and Sami Zayn(!)

I figured it would be Solo, Tama, Tanga and Rock v Roman, Usos and Jacob Fatu.

Roman has always been about family. He could argue that not only is Rock usurping his power but that Tama and Tanga are 'like brothers to me' but they are not blood. Jacob Fatu is blood. The Uso's are blood. Get the elders involved. Get Rikishi to bring the Uso's back together like Papa Briscoe did with Jay and Mark. 'Have you got it out of your system now?' etc. 

Theres a hell of a lot they can do. I'm just intrigued when they are intending to do it.

Not when Solo is wearing such a snazzy jacket.

I had to check out his jacket based on this post and, damn, you are not wrong!

At what point, though? Since you're looking at things with some perspective, at what point would it be appropriate to fire someone for racism?

When they're being racist.

You said that if it wasn't intentional, it certainly wasn't a sackable offence, and if it was intentional, firing her would be ridiculous.

At what point would firing someone for racism be an appropriate action? Would they have to be using the n-word regularly and refusing to apologise after being repeatedly warned not to?

I'm glad you're not blowing this whole thing out of proportion. It makes it so much easier to discuss the issue reasonably.

Sorry. I should have put 'She's clearly a massive racist. I mean, look at her, she's white and blonde! I bet she's a Trump supporter too! Fire her! In fact, arrest her.'

Damn me for trying to look at things with some perspective. I won't do it again and can only offer my sincere apologies for doing so.

At the very least, she should be suspended. And told to say sorry to Jade, Yes. 

 

My understanding is she posted it without listening to it, heard it and then deleted it. If that's the case then she should not face any repercussions in my opinion. It was something she shared without realising it was offensive and she deleted it as soon as she realised, It happens and is certainly not a sackable offence.

If she posted it knowing full well what was said then, yes, she should be spoken to and action should be taken. Obviously, that should include an apology to Jade but I've been seeing calls for her to be fired and blacklisted which is absolutely ridiculous. If it was part of a pattern of behaviour then, yes, there is an issue there. If it's a one off then, seriously, people need to get some perspective. I would imagine those that work with her know her better than any of us.

Its Tiffy Time, Tiffy time for her to be fired.

Seriously?

Sami Zayn has a comedy show?

Yeah, much like seeing Brian Pillman Jr for the first time, I'm always jarred by how close they resemble their relative. Thought Billington looked really good without feeling like a cosplay. Got those scary AF clotheslines his Uncle had, and hopefully not the personality.

Yeah Tommy is the double of Dynamite Kid in so many ways it's scary. Even how he moves in the ring is the same. 

If he has his head screwed on and can stay healthy I can see him doing really well. The size barrier is not the factor it was when Dynamite was around.

I remember going to Insurrextion 2002 and sitting down in my seat in the very back row of Wembley Arena and thinking "these tickets were £50, how can they possibly be in the back row??!!??".   Times really have changed.

I think this shows how long it has been since I went to a WWE because I remember the same. I remember sitting up in the cheap seats at Sheffield Arena and they must have been around the same price. I know 'inflation' and all that but prices now are insane.

Still, if people are willing to pay it then who am I to say they're wrong?

1 - The cost of hiring a 15,000 or 5,000 venue is not that dissimilar.

 

Great, so book the 5000 seat venue and fill it.

So what's the general forum consensus? 

King Gunther? 

Yeah hypocrisy is hardly anything new in wrestling. If all the wrestlers who said they were 'never going back to WWE' never went back the wrestling business would look a lot different.

Same for any wrestler who tries to moralise and be holier than thou. It means they could never work WWE, AEW, ROH, several promotions in the UK, anywhere in Mexico and most promotions in Japan.

I did look into the ticket prices for the Bash in Berlin. I was going to combine it with a holiday as I have always wanted to go to Berlin. However even the cheapest seemed to be about 500 Euros which I can't justify.

Fair play though. Clearly if people are willing to buy them they are not overpriced.

I wonder if they are gearing towards

Rock, Solo, Tama, Tanga vs Reigns, Usos’ and Fatu at this point. Keeps the Bloodline self contained to some extent.
 

I was thinking this. Roman can do the whole 'I love Tama and Tanga but they're not blood' thing. Have Rikishi make an appearance to talk Jey into forgiving Jimmy.... There's all sorts they could do. 

Cody doing his best Max Headroom impression there.

Yeah he was one of those post Brock Turner incidents where the NCAA essentially turned a blind eye to athletes  assaulting and raping women. Unsurprisingly legislators were so slow to act, probably because it’s only women and we don’t want to ruin these promising athletes lives for one little mistake. Wankers one and all. 

Oh wow, this sounds terrible. I will have to look it up. Never knew that.
