You asked that question about 3 pages ago bruh. I got you anyway.
#1. Steve and Larson are my favorite wrestling podcast to listen to. Good laughs. They do about 5 wrestling related podcasts a week. Then about 2 WWE 2K videos also.
2#. Wrestling Inc is okay.
ESPN has a wrestling podcast also but I've never listened to it.

wrestling observer radio is the best but unless u use torrents its not free
That belt looks WAY better than the World/Universal title.

I've never even heard of these guys
After seeing the UK title belt I'm more convinced than ever before that they need to retire the currents main titles.
- Step 1: retire the WWE and Universal titles after Mania
- Step 2: replace them with a Raw and Smackdown heavyweight title
- Step 3: STOP this bullshit with the red and blue straps
- Step 4: have the same person who designed the UK title come in and design the new titles
- Step 5: make sure that the titles have designs that pay homage to their shows (i.e. the fist for the Smackdown belt)
- Step 6: upload a video of them burning the Universal title in a trash can fire for it being the ugliest piece of shit title since the WWE version of the ECW title

WWE Hall Of Famer Jimmy Snuka Dead At 73
May 18, 1943 - January 15, 2017.
WWE.com
Numerous outlets are reporting the death of WWE Hall of Famer "Superfly" Jimmy Snuka, who passed away due to stomach cancer on Sunday. He was 73.
Snuka was one of the most memorable stars of the 1980s, a larger-than-life babyface who was famous for his Superfly Splash, a jumping attack off the top rope. Though he held the NWA United States Championship and was a two-time ECW Heavyweight Champion, his greatest success came in WWE. While in the company he became a household name, spurred on by feuds with Bob Backlund and Don Muraco - in both programs, Snuka capped off major Madison Square Garden cage matches by hitting his Superfly Splash from the top of the cage.
In later years, Snuka continued to make WWE appearances. At WrestleMania VII, he became the first man to fall victim to The Undertaker at the show of shows, and he made cameo appearances throughout the late '90s and 2000s - including an appearance in the 2008 Royal Rumble. Two of Snuka's children - James (Sim) and Sarona (Tamina) - have also competed in WWE.
For the past couple of years, Snuka's name has been in the news for less auspicious reasons. In August of 2015, Snuka was diagnosed with stomach cancer, and the next month - and after years of rumored involvement in the crime - Snuka was arrested for the murder of his girlfriend, Nancy Argentino, in 1983. Snuka plead not guilty to the crime initially, but his lawyers then argued that years of head trauma had rendered him unfit for prosecution.
In June of 2016, Judge Kelly Banach declared that Snuka was not fit to stand trial and the case would be reevaluated in six months. On January 3, Banach dismissed all charges against Snuka, who was then in hospice care.

Those Brits are weird looking as hell. This guy is a 19 year old kid.
the 2nd night of the UK Tournament was great wrestling
I was just gonna reply with the same shit. Like what is eh doing? Are people hopping on it because its viral and its cool to like weird shit that no one else likes?
Yes yes yes hilarious and true
Yeah Kurt stopped taking bookings after March. Hopefully they pair him with American Alpha. AA could use the rub from Angel.
Imagine Angle, American Alpha - and Shelton Benjamin grouped up as a BEAST team.
Definitely in my top 5 ever
Wasn't he currently on trial for the possible murder of his wife? Last I heard his lawyers were saying that his mental state was deteriorated past the point where the state should charge him.WWE Hall Of Famer Jimmy Snuka Dead At 73

Super fly was a big part of my childhood and why I originally got into wrestling but sad to say, him dying before all the facts could come out might have been best for business.
Man you ain't neva lied. Most of of those young 20 somethings looked like they were pushing 40. And a couple of them are going to need some dental work before they can be on American TV
That's belt though
Easily the best looking belt that they made in years.
Top 5.
I hope this is his last run in wrestling and that he can end his career in the WWE. And it's been said about 100 times in this thread already but Angle and American Alpha. C'mon WWE, it basically writes itself.
At least people are exposing it

Snuka was acquitted for those murder charges recently, like last month I think.
Not acquitted, judge said he wasn't mentally competent to stand trial.
Snuka got away with murder.
Cool. I'm glad he was acquitted.
Does anyone know why he was acquitted? I wonder if it was because of a lack of evidence or his lawyers winning out about his current mental state.
Edit: I didn't see that message above this before I wrote that.
I hope they keep Joe in NXT. Joe, like Taz will be ruined in WWE.
Joe's done bruh. Joe was booked as a beast in NXT. I don't see that changing. Taz was heavyweight and was about 5 or 6 inches shorter than most guys on the roster. Not to mention his fame came from ECW. WWE wasn't ready to push someone of Taz stature at the time.
