Meltzer on Sasha's concussion and backstage plans

[Deleted]

"She's hurt. It's a significant thing. As far as how long ... the [injury] they were keeping secret before was a knee [injury]. WWE ... They'll tell you some injuries and then others, they don't want you to know. That's the deal.

"But there's no way of knowing right now what her status is. Obviously, Charlotte and Sasha were supposed to wrestle in Brooklyn for SummerSlam this year. It's months away, so there's still a very good chance that that's going to happen. But you just never know with a concussion."

Becky lost clean to Dana in their feud. As much as I think she's great, she's in no position to challenge Charlotte.

In fairness it's the radio show. Kinda got to stretch it out, otherwise it sounds like this....

Bryan Alvarez: "HHHHHHHHow it's goin' everybody? Bryan Alvarez here with Dave Meltzer for Wrestling Observer Radio where he go over all that's happening in pro wrestling and MMA. So Dave any word on Sasha Banks?"

Dave Meltzer: "Concussion"

Alvarez: "How long is she out?"

Meltzer: "Don't know."

Alvarez: "How about Enzo?"

Meltzer: "The same."

Alvarez: "Future plans for Roman and Seth?"

Meltzer: "They'll feud. Not sure if Roman retains. That's up to Vince."

Alvarez: "What about Cody's departure."

Meltzer: "Wasn't happy. Don't know where he ends up."

Alvarez: "And that's it for Wrestling Observer Radio. Be sure to tune in tomorrow from midnight to 12:01 Eastern here on the Figure Four Weekly Radio Network.

In this instance, I'll give it to him that he was talking and not writing so it make sense it was a conversational style and stretched it out more than I don't know, but that man must have passed every essay he was ever given in school without ever having to read the actual book/movie/play.

Not losing to an underling lol.

Im just saying that Becky has to beat Dana before Charlotte. Could happen but we will see. Probably Paige though given she beat Charlotte the other Monday.

To be fair, I do the exact same thing when talking where I'll explain my thoughts/statement before giving a concluding sentence even if the concluding sentence is basically, "I don't know." It's just how my brain works.

Wrestletaint.gov got hold of one of his high school book reports for Kurt Vonnegut's "Cat's Cradle". Here's a brief synopsis...

So....*clears throat* (EDITOR'S NOTE: Yes, he typed in clears throat to pad it out)...this book was a really, really good book. Not as good as "Slaughterhouse Five", but then again what is you know? That's his best work and it's hard to imagine him ever getting to that level you know?.

The big thing that stuck to with me is that I thought it was about 40 pages too long. I think a shorter story would have resulted in a more effective finish if you ask me. It reminds me of Jose Gonzales vs. Kevin Sullivan at Showdown at Shea this past summer. If you dropped about five minutes of that match, I think the crowd would have more into it. Just dragged on at the midway point to a point I just...you know....it's like it could have been a four star match that got knocked down to two and a half.

Speaking of Showdown at Shea, I'm so confused by that Bruno Sammartino/Stan Hansen match. A countout? I mean...look....he's had a great run, but it's time for a new champion. Bruno is in his 40s for goodness sake. You got Hansen, Billy Graham and Harley Race all younger, promising characters you can count on getting over with the live crowds. I love Bruno, I really do. But these countout finishes does nobody any favors.

All in all, I give the book ***3/4 and Showdown at Shea **.

It states on the paper he got a D which is the equivalent of one and a half star book report.

About that typo. It could be because of a number of reasons. As far as if I'm going to admit I made a mistake... I've kept my mistakes a secret a few times with ninja edits or quickly deleting and reposting without the error. I've also sometimes admitted my errors and apologized if it made the statement offensive or ridiculous. That's me... I'll tell you point blank that I made a mistake on some of them and then others, I'm not going to let you know about them. That's the deal.

But there's also the case of the cause of the typo and there's no real way to pinpoint the reason for it. It could be because I quickly changed something in my post and didn't re-read it to make sure it was fine. It could also be because I got distracted or forgot to make the change until it was too late. There's a very good chance it was the latter. But you just never know with a typo.

"Well, y'know, it's a... it's a YUGE concussion." 

[魔界5号]

Well, you see, with Sasha, the thing is, you know, I can't tell you who my sources are, but it's hard to tell how long someone could be out with a concussion, you know? But, I don't know, she could still wrestle Charlotte in August, but it's hard to tell, you know what I mean?
