    Actually I really think they need to close Takeover with Asuka vs Moon, assuming that's the plan for the Women's title match

    I think closing it with a Tag Title match is fine given that DIY and The Revival put on the 2 best matches in NXT, and maybe WWE, last year

    I think Asuka vs Moon or

    the official DIY/AoP/Revival 3 way


    could realistically close.

    But man, NXT seriously needs to start elevating more people to the main event after Takeover.

    Smart way to hype up the series they're making.

    The 2012 documentary on GLOW is going on Netflix Mar 31

    Wasn't it already on Netflix a few years ago? Or was that another GLOW documentary? I know it was one of the first things I watched after I subscribed, along with a documentary about Fabulous Moolah that somehow left out the parts of her career where she (allegedly) pimped out young women to wrestling promoters.

    Looks like the NXT before Mania will be a clip show only.

    Got taken off at some point. Things going away and coming back happens a lot on Netflix. It coming back now is timely off the recent announcement of the series

    Not as uncomfortable as Kevin Kelly's attempts to convince me he has a crunchy roll account and watched all of Tiger Mask W.

    It may be worth going back and rewatching that match just to hear this.

    Orlando News 13 reports that a student in Poinciana, Florida brought a “kill list” to school that the fourteen year-old boy’s family claims was inspired by Chris Jericho. The outlet says according a mother of children at the school overheard her child saying that a “kid wrote a list, and it includes most of the kids on the football team, and he wants to shoot them.”

    An incident report from the Sheriff’s Office said that deputies spoke with the family of the student who wrote the list, and they said that he got the idea from watching WWE and mimicking The List.

    Oooooooooof

    Cue hysteria about the concept of making lists.

    Damn you, Chris Jericho and WWE, for inventing the concept of lists.

    WatchMojo better look the fuck out, else they might be named as an accomplice too.

    Meh, lots of people have lists like Santa. Jericho doesn't even get wrestling revenge on people he just writes their name down.

    Technically, the people on the list also get "It".

    We just haven't figured out what "It" is yet.

    The people on Jericho's list are still alive, so we at least know that "it" doesn't involve shooting them

    That's the main difference here I feel

    It won't happen, but I would love it if, during one of New Day's host spots during WM, the Hardys suddenly teleported into the arena via Vanguard 1 and entered into a promo war with them.

    A wrestling fan can dream.

    That's not impossible. Highly, highly improbable, but not impossible.

    The Hardy's would have to agree to completely fuck over TNA though.

    I don't see them doing that.

    I'm pretty sure they can. They'll make way more money on the indy's and a wrestlemania gig anyway.

    Matt is making so much from this Broken stuff on the indies. And he was already set for life to begin with, look at the house.

    Wherever he ends up next, he isn't without full creative control of what he does. Jeff might be more lenient, but damned if you could find a time in his career where he visibly had more fun than this past year, so I expect him to be in the same (dilapidated) boat.

    It's not out of the question that WWE would give them creative control of their characters.

    And I'm pretty sure Matt already had a lot of money before the Broken stuff, unless he lost it with his legal troubles.

    The last I remember, high-end TNA contracts were worth 250k to 500k a year (that's what I read, anyway. Could be wrong). And with indy dates added in, I'm sure they're both doing pretty well.

    At least, I hope they are. Those two have done some hellacious stuff to their bodies over the years. I hope they both have fat cushions of cash to sit on.

    Writing their names down is all the revenge he needs. They now have to live with the fact that they are Stupid Idiots, and their stupid idiocy is permanently documented on The List Of Jericho.
