WWE Until Jon Moxley Returns

Same.

I was getting ready to give that post the ol' thumbs down KS, due to the stupidity of fans thinking "clues" were that Mox lives in Vegas and the show is in Vegas! (So by that thinking, The Godfather could also be in AEW) Also Cody liked a tweet? C'mon fans.

However then I got to the clever subtle one, the dice being a 2 & 5, the date of the PPV being the 25th. That one I actually liked.

That one saved it for you KS

What in the world is going on?








During a recent edition of Busted Open Radio, WWE Hall of Famer Mark Henry commented on attempting to give advice to Lio Rush:

“I pulled him aside the last time I saw him and told him ‘I’m hearing stuff in the locker room. What’s wrong?’ He said nothing’s wrong. It was a blatant lie to my face. I let him know that if he has a question, right now is the time to do that,” Henry said.

“You’re likely not going to run into someone who knows the system like I know the system. He didn’t do that. He lied to my face. Sometimes you have to talk to people that know more than you do.”

“If you can’t pay for a rental car, you can’t pay for a hotel with the money that you’re making every week then you need to change the way you’re spending. You can’t blame that on the office. If you spent everything before you got it, that’s your problem,” Henry said.

“Back in my day, they would’ve told him, ‘Lio, Bobby shouldn’t have to drive. He shouldn’t have to carry his bag.’ Yokozuna was my responsibility,” he continued.

“After these comments, he’s gonna have to go somewhere, or the company’s gonna have to tell him 'good luck with your future endeavors.'"

“It’s not a race issue. It’s an ego issue. Who are you? Nobody is exempt from being respectful to the business and paying homage to the guys drawing money. We all have done it. Steve Austin did it. The Rock did it. You better than The Rock? Get the hell outta here!”

Yeah if Mark Henry is telling you that you're doing something wrong, you probably should listen.

Mike Johnson of PWInsider.com noted the following regarding Lio Rush's comments of not being paid well:

"Rush’s claims are interesting, especially since WWE sources have claimed today that Rush was offered a new, five-year contract that was said to be in the $300 thousand range, but turned it down, instead, according to multiple sources, asking for double that number."

Johnson also mentioned the following:

"We are told that Rush has, at on at least one occasion, instead suggested the company release him so he can 'show them' what he could accomplish outside of WWE."

- According to Dave Meltzer of F4WOnline.com, Vince McMahon outright told Luke Harper in writing that he would not grant Harper a release. Meltzer noted that Harper was regularly pitching ideas when he was injured but WWE turned them all down. Meltzer added that "Vince said that he didn’t ‘get him’ and complained that he couldn’t even do a Southern accent (that was from them wanting him to do a Southern accent four years ago)."

When plans for a feud with Sami Zayn were dropped after Wrestlemania, Harper was told he wasn’t needed but then was brought to Smackdown to work a dark match with EC3. Vince McMahon apparently didn’t like the match (specifically the manager spots that involved Drake Maverick) and that led to Harper not being assigned to a brand. At that point, Harper decided to ask for his release.

I bet you culture on the WWE roster sucks.

Exactly. You start blocking guys from leaving and blocking guys from going to conventions because of AEW, you foster resentment and give AEW more buzz.

Why you'd want guys on the roster who have no interest in being there is mind boggling.
