Pro Wrestling! (For Everything WWE, Impact, Indies, AEW, & Japan !) 2021

Theory is being set up to fail when he attempts to cash in, if he does attempt it at SS. Roman will choke him out. He won't be the one to beat Roman, even with a cash in.

He can lose 1 championship and keep the other and be alright.

Wow OVW has a Netflix deal? That'll put them on the map!

https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.wre...-netflix-deal/

Apparently this is an experiment type situation with Netflix. They signed OVW to this short term deal with an idea of trying Pro Wrestling content on the streaming service. That they will become big players ahead if this attracts an audience on bidding for AEW or WWE streaming rights ahead.

In one of Dutch Mantell's stories he detailed how in the 1990's he went to work for the UWF in Japan.

- Dutch flew from Nashville to LA on one flight , then flew to Japan where they chased the sun essentially. So he was on the plane flight for like 12-14 hours at this point. Well he arrives in Japan and thinks they will be letting him go to motel to sleep and adjust. NOPE....

He is told he has to go to the studio and shoot TV and do interviews so they drive him there and its a few more hours. Then he thinks ok , sleep now....NOPE. He's told he's gotta go work the match that evening with a Japanese wrestler. By now he's totally exhausted and been up 20+ hours so he gets in ring and tries his best to work the match.


- Once in ring with the guy , he's going through things and ...gets nailed with a move off the ropes and is KNOCKED OUT. He awakes as he sees the guy with his arm held up.


-

- But the UWF deal was wild as he was working for weeks and the guys were legit STIFF as hell. He had better real life fights than what he experienced as they would beat the crap outta him in matches etc. So he finally tells a guy on the bus as the guy looks at him...

"Dutch , this is a shoot style pro wrestling promotion !"

Mantell was never told this before he left to work there. He thought the guys were just stiff workers. But later learned that the guys were told they had to make it look as REAL as possible or face the consequences. Which if your match didn't look real , the mob would cut your finger .

So guys were legit throwing punches and doing this to make sure they didn't get in trouble.


- Mantell brings up how the guys would also thank him post match as well in locker room. Where they had just spent time beating the hell outta each other in ring.

Miro on AEW vs WWE (per WrestlingInc):

“It’s always going to be the freedom. Whenever anybody asks me, ‘What is the difference here?’, It’s the freedom. You don’t have to set yourself in a lower standard, because that’s what I thought the other place was. [WWE] let you lower your standard in order to fit their mold. Here [in AEW], it’s not like that. You have a style, you go out there, you do your style to your best, and that’s what makes professional wrestling so much better because you see different clashes of style, different styles clash in the ring. And I think that’s what makes it so much more interesting.”

It's so true. That's why I was not excited when Styles and Bryan went to WWE, I knew WWE wouldn't let them be their Indie/ROH/NJPW full selves.

It worked with lunch underground but unfortunately LU ended.

Unless the folks that AEW came to the dance with just turn them down flat?

Where is there a logical version of things where there is any "Bidding..." for AEW should it eventually wind up on streaming?

Netflix and HBO MAX have been in talks with them for awhile with HBO MAX in the Leeds.

Probably because Theory is 24 years old. Every top guy in WWE right is in their 40s or close to it. They need younger blood.

theory isn't the only guy on the roster younger than 40 that can be pushed or tested.

They want that next YOUNG STAR to be like a Cena who came in , in his 20's and carried things a decade or more. They want that right now.

Cody Rhodes will be pushed as I forgot him and he's in his late 30's so he has some years ahead. The scene will likely be this...


Cody Rhodes
Roman Reigns
Seth Rollins
Bobby Lashley
AJ Styles
Edge (once he returns)
Riddle (as he is getting a push)
Kevin Owens (if he gets pushed)

Then you add in Austin Theory , Vonn Breaker (who likely will be pushed up) and another talent from NXT and you can have a nice mix of youth and experience going ahead. And we can see a nice rebuild of the main event scene ahead for a new generation of stars.

is that the bastard child of bron breakker & von wagner?? speaking of which, anybody know if it's true von wagner is actually the son of dr wagner jr??

Wardlow looks good in gold.

scorpio deserved better. i hope they can at least get some traction for that title now.

i thought they pulled the trigger too soon on the acclaimed and ass boys split, their whole act with billy favoring acclaimed over his sons was great and i wanted to see a lot more of it.

glad to see roosh make his debut and the main event was great. also miro vs black sounds cool.

But Theory is the only guy in his age group the WWE cares about pushing.

glad to see roosh make his debut and the main event was great. also miro vs black sounds cool.

I wanted more of disappointed dad Billy too. Tony probably pulled the trigger to solidity turning the Acclaimed face.
