He said the exact same thing he said when he gave up control of Raw and Smackdown to Bischoff and Heyman a few years ago and then took the reins back after a few weeks.
I wonder if FTR still want to go back.
Was that ever serious though? I had always assumed it was Dax being a doofus on social media.
I thought he was actually excited to work with Trips again, didn’t the Revival do pretty well in NXT?
They did, and you may be right. I guess we’ll find out tomorrow night.
TIL the Steiners are, and have always been, colossal pieces of shit
And yes, Rick is now a member of a local school board
Unfortunately the Steiner Brothers have a reputation for bullying and abuse going back decades. On a podcast interview, Kevin Nash answered a question related to the Brothers’ reputation for violently hazing wrestling talent, a story corroborated by others:
One time this thing goes down and fucking Robbie sticks a pencil up this fucking guy’s ass and I looked at him and I said, do you know that’s a felony? That’s sodomy. I said, I’m walking out of here. I don’t want to be in a deposition.
Eric Bischoff relates a similar story in an interview:
Scott basically got his knee in somebody’s back and he’s duct taping this poor referee’s feet together oh no and then they duct tape his mouth so he can’t scream and his hands are duct tape and one of the Steiners—and I don’t remember which one—takes the guy’s pants off and sticks a pencil up his ass.
According to Bret Hart’s biography, the Steiner Brothers abused their fellow wrestlers as a negotiating tactic:
The Steiners had been trying to get out of their contract so they could go back to WCW, where a better paying deal with a much lighter schedule was on the table. Vince wouldn’t release them, so they began intentionally roughing up some of the TV job boys, forcing him to change his mind.
Very good episode.
Since we can’t have Raw After Mania anymore, I’ll hope that Dynamite After Mania becomes a thing.
Hmm, I had decided to stop watching AEW regularly after the last PPV, but tuned in for Long Island MJF episode b/c I knew it’d be elite. Now that they’ve got Jay White, I might be a regular viewer again, at least Dynamite. Titles being on FTR is huge too.
Was I alone in thinking that Claudia should’ve been given a mega push from the get go and have been in the main event picture and possibly strapped with the top belt? I guess his promos would suck, but I think you could make an argument that he deserved it. His booking has been kinda weird. I thought he’d be putting on bangers when he arrived, like Danielson, but he’s hardly been given any good singles matches.
Is there anything Shia Lebouf can’t do??
Phil needs to go home and stay as far away from a wrestling ring as he can pretty much forever.
Your wife is AJ Lee, dude. Spend your time with her. You clearly hate the business. Just let it go
I think he actually does love wrestling, but he hates people.
I would like him to come back to AEW just long enough to put over Orange Cassidy.
