The survivors of Matt Riddle's repeated sexual abuse seem comforted by the news, and that's ultimately what matters most in this situation.
Rest in piss bozo, indeed.

2011, can't remember the circumstances but Santino was in a cage match and when Ziggler came down to interfere and started climbing the cage, Santino used the cobra and struck him in the palms of his hands. He started screaming "MY HANDS! MY HANDS!"

Looks like I was beat to the "foreskin or foreclosure" reference.
Now I'm just another #hashtag

I’ve never seen one botched move annihilate a career more than Top Dolla. He not only never recovered, he wasn’t allowed to. Top Dolla also (allegedly) being a dick to people likely didn't help his case. "It was foreskin or foreclosure."

f***ing Gunner becoming a cop is the most fitting and hilarious thing imaginable As a wrestler, he's the worst to ever do it. And now, him especially becoming a sheriff in North Carolina is so on-the-nose. (For the unaware, NC makes national news inordinately frequently for sheriffs either being accused of racially insensitive remarks or having to resign due to making racially insensitive remarks.)

Very sad about the talent losing their jobs without showing their full potential or really being given a chance on-screen.
I'd love to see Rick Boogs and Ziggler in the G1 next year. Boogs especially, being a giant charismatic gajin who can connect with crowds and is just inherently likable - the sky is the absolute limit for him there and him possibly headlining Wrestle Kingdom within the next five years is not out of the question. If he hits Japan, they are going to f***ing adore him.

In the aftermath of his win tonight, I was thinking about his initial surprise return to ROH with Homicide back in 2013. It's what instantly made me a fan and was such a promising first step forward in the aftermath of post-Cornette ROH.
But first, this is one that turned 10 years old last week:
and here's 10 years ago to-the-day of him winning the ROH world title:
So proud of how far this dude's come.

f*** me was that ever satisfying. I watched on DVR, so before the bell sounded I had to immeadiately rewatch both entrances just to take all of the moment in and then... absolute match of the year candidate. A sterling example of why we watch this shit.

10. Loved it and didn't even delete it from my DVR after watching with the idea that if any non-fans ask me what AEW is like, I can show them this episode.

Just to give you an idea of Panini's 2023 quality control, I once got two Hank Walker cards in the same pack.

I'd say Hawk and Animal. The Road Warriors / Legion of Doom were marketed so hard in so many places through so many eras for so long. Both the 80s and 90s boom periods had them, as well as their being essentially the most visible antagonist of the Wrestlefest arcade game.
I love Sting, but if you see someone with Sting facepaint at a party you have a substantial amount who will think it's The Crow. The question of who is the proverbial icon representing makes it less iconic. For Hawk and Animal, there's no question.

In all seriousness, there did seem to be an active recall on WWE panini cards in the past month or so from my local Target so something did seem up.
I'm personally happy they're moving on. I really liked the 2022 Panini cards, but this year's were incredibly disappointing, especially for what's supposed to be a premium card series.

Yes, ESPECIALLY with the Baron as their manager.

Jungle Boy isn't refusing to go to rehab, hasn't no showed Raw, isn't actively trying to get shitcanned, hasn't a history of S.A allegations, and hasn't disgraced himself like Riddle has. To be clear, I don't have an issue with saying Riddle should be fired. As a rule, I am never a fan of firing someone based on, "well, they're just not a good person," because that opens up a lot of opportunity for discrimination (please don't read this as me saying Riddle is being discriminated against if terminated; he's not). My issue is with calling people's opinion "gross" and "disgusting" then a couple days later doing the same thing you have blazed those people for. Riddle's a documented unrepentant abuser. That's completely different for a lot of reasons.

I'd argue the heist of the century would have been even more effective has Seth cashed in on a Brock vs Bryan main event.
Have Reigns squash Big Show or a team of Big Show AND Kane on the main card to keep him looking strong.
Damien Mizdow wins the ATGMBR.

Riddle is probably thinking to himself right now: "Let me get fired by WWE and then I'll go over and talk to UFC." Not realizing they are all under one company now. I hate to put this into the universe, but I fear there's a non-zero chance the timeline heads toward a Riddle vs Punk UFC fight.

He'll keep passive aggressively taking potshots at AEW to appease his diehards for sure uh yeah that is already starting...Though you can tell the other commentator was kind of egging this on This is gross. Appreciate you sharing it to confirm where we're possibly headed over the next two month, but the audio is just so gross.
