WWE and Impact working together in a way that should actually help both companies rather than just 1..
The real forbidden door has been opened
But no seriously WWE backed themselves into a corner of not having enough women for the Rumble and would look terrible if they cancelled it.

Ha, that’s actually hilarious. Bet they regret hitting Toni Storm with all those pies now.

Johnny Knoxville as a special guest on Smackdown feels like a pretty good indicator of where WWE is still at

I do have fond memories of Umaga giving Steve-O a lesson in how to stiff the shit out of someone.

That was great. You could see how legit pissed he was at them laughing.
I'm not bothered about Knox being in the Rumble. They have done this 20+ years and I dare say he will be up for taking some big bumps.
But they need to give some NXT wrestlers a chance to shine. Bron definitely needs a good 20 minute showing. Maybe let him get to the final 5 or something.
Is odd for them to turn down David Arquette though.

The real forbidden door is NJPW. Let’s not forget that.
Still quite funny that WWE fans welcome this Impact forbidden door when they have put down the company since it’s conception.

I only catch TNA now and then and it's usually highlights. Think I could name about 4 wrestlers without cheating.
But it and NXT definitely suffer from the small crowd. (Speaking of it was sad seeing the Tokyo Dome so empty)
It took away the best thing it had going for it with the 6 sided ring.

I was an avid watcher until Hogan/Bischoff came in. My interest completely dropped off after that. The problem for me is that there's been so much wrestling content.. I think 3 hours a week is about my limit, so I haven't really got back into Impact despite me hearing good things. Now that I don't watch NXT I suppose I could catch more Impact..

Yeah they really bad some bad decisions during that period.

Impact has some great stuff on it these days but the vibe is stone cold in that little arena
I’ll have said it before but Jordynne Grace could headline any women’s division in North America

That show that was being billed as a return of Lucha Underground is basically just a normal wrestling show. Bit disappointing that.

So the women's division has 1 tag team who just so happen to be the champs.
That's some achievement

1 step up from when TNA retired its women’s tag titles and Eric Young was co-holder

What happened to Jay Lethal? Feels like he was in AEW twice then vanished

He was on last night. Probably waited until the right moment to fit him in.

TK must be replacing Lio Rush with Jay lethal since he spoke up during the Big Swole stuff.

A lot of pathetic salty people talking PWI awards were bought by Tony and giving Britt a lot of abuse…
The Britt VS Thunder Rosa was a great match. Perhaps not a clinic but damn entertaining.

Yeah, that match is a worthy winner, it's probably not my favourite match of the year (Young Bucks v Lucha Bros. in the cage) but it's easily in my top 10.
And I hope it's not the last we see of Lio Rush, him and Dante make an amazing tag team.

Christ. Lot gets said about how many male wrestlers end up dead or fucked up but it hasn’t been kind to the valets of the 80s and 90s either.
Elizabeth - Dead
Sherri - Dead
Woman - murdered
Luna - Dead
Sweet Sapphire - Dead
Sunny - Porn, drugs and arrest
Marianna Komlos - dead
Chyna - porn, drugs and death

Yeah it's mad! Hopefully we're out of this era. I know Cornette gives this generation a lot of stick but if all they're doing is playing video games, rather than getting loaded on pills and alcohol...
Also glad to see THE MURDER HAWK back. I know he'll be the heel to keep Hangman's title reign going but he's excellent at being a heel.

Think the link posted a few pages back sadly shows loads of suicide deaths as well.
I'm actually amazed that Hogan is still alive considering how much he was putting in himself
