Booker T says TNA’s AMC premiere felt like an infomercial:“I got the same sentiment as a lot of other people as far as it could have been shot a little bit different. I don't know if some of the shots were done earlier in the day when this is a big night. It was a lot of commercials. Three matches. So it definitely seemed kind of like an infomercial a little bit for the new spot on AMC, which I understand that as well. Couple of guys had visa issues like Leon Slater, nothing you could do about that. Those issues can happen and you think you can fix them and you just can't and time runs out.But directing is something that I think a wrestling show needs and that director has to be the guy that's accountable for a lot of stuff that goes on that show, literally. Because that part of the show right there, only one person is going to be in charge of that job trying to put all that together and then quarterbacking that thing. It's not an easy job. I don't know who's the quarterback for that show, but that might have been the missing piece.”
 


Cody needs to replace triple k


That's an interesting take. Especially coming from an active wrestler.
100% correct, they need to find a way to incorporate more house shows into the schedule so that the wrestlers (especially younger wrestlers) can get more reps and work on their in-ring.
House shows also gives wrestlers a chance to try new things to see if they will work in front of a crowd.
I get why house shows have been reduced because they don't make as much money as RAW/Smackdown or the PLEs but they are still needed.
AEW could REALLY stand to have house shows since a lot of guys still need to work on their fundamentals in the ring.
 
This is what I'm talking about. If it's not a shoot interview where someone is crashing out, don't even make this a public discussion. The company frames it one way, the employee has a different story. What sounds more like what happened, how WWE spun it or what Truth is saying? This is a "judge it by the results" thing. With how things played out, how can anyone say that was intentional given how sloppy and thrown together thing went when Truth came back. You mean to tell that was the plan?



Anyway.







I mentioned this when it happened, but I'll repeat it for the slow folks in the back, lol.
R-Truth was never "released" as he puts it, WWE chose not to renew his contract once it was set to run out (which was still months ahead).
From watching 'Unreal' WWE seemingly wanted to keep him around, but perhaps at either the same pay or with a pay cut.
Truth got in his feelings and posted that he got "released", which was not the case.
Either way it worked out for Truth and he got a new deal out of it.
That's great for a guy his age, who is a mid-carder at best and barely ever wrestles.
 


Seth Rollins was asked if he’ll be back from injury in time for WrestleMania 42:“Don’t know. Don’t know the answer to that yet. The timeline for shoulder surgery and repair is four to six months or so. Did my rotator cuff back in October. I’m rehabbing. As long as there’s no setbacks, I hope to be cleared by the time WrestleMania rolls around in April.At the end of the day, that decision isn’t mine. I just can do the best I can day after day, get myself in a good position, and hope for the best.”
 


The Undertaker has revealed what he was actually doing in the viral video of his energetic hot tag: "All it was was a total teachable moment, that's all it was for me. I never worked that way anywhere else, it didn't work for my character to work like that. "Back then, you're not thinking of someone recording it, so I'm thinking that I'm getting away with being able to teach this moment."I've got Randy (Orton), who's an established guy, but then you (Cody Rhodes) and Ted (DiBiase Jr) are young guys coming up. "That's the best way for me to teach, to let you experience what that hot tag should be like. That's all that was, just a teaching moment, because I didn't get those very often. "We got to do some creative things at live events over there, those were all teachable moments."
