Didn't WWE have a great women's division in the early and mid 2000s?
The best their women's division has ever been is probably the late 80's(and maybe the very early 90's? I forget.) when they had the Jumping Bomb Angels, Sherry Martel, Bull Nakano and Alundra Blaze along with a host of other decent talent. It didn't last long though and it's never come close to being that good again.
yeah saying brandon stroud's opinion validates your own is kind of silly

W★ANGseday Night WAR - August 1st 2012
We’re live from the W★ANG Warzone and sometimes bingo hall in front of literally tens of potential fans. Your hosts for the evening are Holly Hearse and Bryan Alvarez and only one of them is going to be getting paid. It sucks to be you Bryan.
Breaking Point’s song “27” comes on over the PA and out walks Kota Ibushi to a largely indifferent crowd who maybe thinks he’s Taka Michinoku. KUDO enters next and our crowd now seems confused that there’s two Taka Michinokus.
Kota Ibushi vs KUDO : Collar and elbow lockup to start. Ibushi pushes KUDO back to the ropes and chest chops him before sending him off the ropes. Double knees to the chest attempted by KUDO but Kota ducks it by bridging back. Spin kick by Kota Ibushi to the face. Springboard reverse elbow by Kota Ibushi. Excellent move. Hooks the leg for a two count. KUDO fights out of a grapple. Kick from KUDO to the leg. KUDO hits a dropkick on Kota Ibushi. Hooks the leg for a two count. Diamond Dust from KUDO, Ibushi is out. Pinfall attempt gets a 2.9999. KUDO uses a basement dropkick to the knee. Kota Ibushi ducks a roundhouse kick and shoves KUDO into the ropes. Super kick by Kota Ibushi. Hooks the leg for a two count. Kota throws KUDO into the corner and cartwheels to the apron. Springboard dropkick from Kota Ibushi. Nicely done. Pin, but KUDO is out just before the three count. Flying elbow from Kota Ibushi. KUDO and Ibushi trade stiff kicks in the middle of the ring ending in KUDO going down to a hard shot to the side of the head. Ibushi only gets knees on a standing shooting star press. Driven DDT by KUDO. Tiger suplex on Ibushi, right from out of the Misawa playbook. KUDO moves in for the kill. German Suplex!!! That shook the ring. 1....2....3!! KUDO looks amazed that he won and celebrates in the ring for a bit. Kota Ibushi offers a handshake to KUDO...and he accepts it! This gets a **3\4 rating. Perfectly Acceptable Wrestling.

KUDO debuted his new gimmick, it got a positive response. KUDO gained overness from this match.
Bryan starts putting the company over talking about how exciting matches like that are just what you can expect from the company. Then he’s cut off mid-sentence by the Robocop theme. Out waddles Cyborg Cop who does not at all look like a fat Mexican guy in a cheap cyborg costume. He remembers to act mechanical when stepping between the ropes and awaits his opponent. Johnny Goodtime hurries to the ring smiling like an idiot. One guy in the audience seems to be waking up a little.
Cyborg Cop vs Johnny Goodtime : Leg trip from Cyborg Cop who floats over into a hammerlock. Johnny Goodtime elbows Cyborg Cop in the face to break the hammerlock. Johnny Goodtime strikes Cyborg Cop. The referee bumps after catching a wild right hand and is down. Fisherman suplex on Cyborg Cop. Goodtime hooks the leg, but the referee is still out.

The referee hasn't seen it: 1....2....3!! Cyborg Cop leaves the ring and heads off down the aisle at a methodical robotic speed mechanically swinging his arms and making servo sounds. Johnny Goodtime jumps out of the ring and starts to give chase but Cyborg Cop suddenly busts into a chubby man sprint to the back. Rating: 1\2 star.

Matt Bentley is standing in the set for his personal interview segment. He announces that tonight's guest is TJ Perkins, who comes out from the back. They try to do a straight interview, but it is obvious that there is tension between the two as Bentley runs down W★ANG and the fans in attendance for not giving him the reaction “a rockstar” deserves. He starts insulting TJ and Ring of Honor. Soon a brawl breaks out. Road agents and referees come out and pull the two apart. Once the chaos settles down a bit Tegan the referee signals for the bell.

Peter Avalon is backstage. He says that he’s beaten TJ Perkins before and since TJ Perkins just beat Matt Bentley that means he’s on a 2-0 unbeaten streak before his first match in W★ANG. Also since he beat TJ he more or less beat everybody in ROH by the transitive property and everybody in TNA too.

NEWS
We got an e-mail from PA TV saying that the ratings for W★ANGseday Night WAR need to improve.
We got a 0.02 rating for 'W★ANGseday Night WAR'!
The attendance level was 24 people.
We made $360 from ticket sales.
WWE got a 0.27 television rating for 'NXT'!
The event was attended by 8039 people.
They made $321560 from ticket sales.
MCW got a 0.84 television rating for 'MCW Rage TV'!
The event was attended by 174 people.
They made $2610 from ticket sales.
What I’m saying here is: we suck. The highest rated segment was Dark Player Uno cutting a promo about how he’s the Wario of professional wrestling and the best match of the night
TJ Perkins has decided to work for APW rather than W★ANG! I don’t blame him.
I always wonder how indy promotions survive nowadays. My local one has two events per week in different towns and the one I go to, which is technically the "main" show like Raw, only draws 40 to 50 people at 10 bucks per head. I shudder to think how little the wrestlers get paid, much less all the other staff. And it's a great promotion don't get me wrong, we're just started to get more noticed due to Davey Richards and Kyle O'Reily showing up about once a month due to them liking the promoter so much. I just can't imagine how he pays the bills.
Pwnan have you seen the latest FCW episode posted anywhere yet? This Sunday should be the last one and I want to see it end on a hopefull high note.
Last what? Last show of the first tapings? As I said after last weeks episode was posted, they've already used everything from the first tapings. Either this week is the start of the second tapings or they're doing something wacky.

Technically the last episode aired should have been the very last show but according to the spoilers this Sunday should be the true end.
It's the one where Dean Ambrose completely wrecks the entire arena with Regal watching on with a satisfactory look after their match.

So I downloaded the game and putzed around with two months of running TNA just to figure out how it works before starting from scratch.
One question is there a way to get more current rosters and data?
And one comment...I now see why TNA has money problems...I made plenty of money the first month, second month I used Sting once and Jarret 2 times and I was negative quicker than a Ryback match.

My first event in EWR was attended by 3 people. Lol.
I just realized, with Sara Del Ray now in WWE, we are even closer than we have been previously to a full-on KoW reunion in the WWE. The theme song would even make sense now, just take out the one "fuck" in there and we're solid.
from the same poeple who keep saying CM punk got baried by trips even though he is currently on the longest title run in 4 years.
he didn't get buried by trips but the "now trips is in charge but THERES SOMEONE CONSPIRING AGAINST HIM WUH OH" angle taking center stage, despite mr haitches not being an active wrestler in a couple years, didn't help any

I dunno about you, but when CM Punk first dropped his pipebomb shoot promo, my first thought was, "This is going to be a great Triple H storyline."
Yeah, I don't recognize what AJ would look like at 12. I'm guessing it's the girl in the black shirt since there's only one other female fan in the video.
Nor does she need to explain her actions. Her exposition about wanting someone to care about her was useless tripe. She's much more effective when she's just acting, and just being her. When they have her try to explain herself, the whole thing falls apart. The last promo of the night was much better than the opening, because Punk and Bryan did the talking. She was manipulating them through their her actions and they were showing it through their words.
Like take last week for example, AJ makes the comment to Eve that she'll get everyone's attention. And while I would have preferred her to motorboat Eve, her just skipping out there....not getting the reaction she wanted, and just kinda looking sad and annoyed. Then going for the table. That works. She didn't have to say a word during that whole segment and it worked. The more of that they do, the better off this is.
Which isn't really anti-AJ, it's anti-shitty writing.
So PAC is being a bit cryptic on his twitter account about whether he really did get signed by WWE. So it might be wise to take the news of all the other signings with a grain of salt for now.

He's actually already been confirmed. Going to FCW. I've not seen the tweet, but I assume he's just trolling or being in-character, to keep some surprise to the people who haven't read the reports.

You mean going to NXT. Although aren't they still using the FCW name for a huge house show Summer tour?

NEWS
We got an e-mail from PA TV saying that the ratings for W★ANGseday Night WAR need to improve.
We got a 0.02 rating for 'W★ANGseday Night WAR'!
The attendance level was 24 people.
We made $360 from ticket sales.
WWE got a 0.27 television rating for 'NXT'!
The event was attended by 8039 people.
They made $321560 from ticket sales.
MCW got a 0.84 television rating for 'MCW Rage TV'!
The event was attended by 174 people.
They made $2610 from ticket sales.
What I’m saying here is: we suck. The highest rated segment was Dark Player Uno cutting a promo about how he’s the Wario of professional wrestling and the best match of the night
TJ Perkins has decided to work for APW rather than W★ANG! I don’t blame him.
Public image inexplicable raised to 12%.
ouch
The last episode better be put up at least. If the spoilers are any indication the promotion goes out with a bang, not a whimper.
Should have named the company IWA:Mid-South
Technically the last episode aired should have been the very last show but according to the spoilers this Sunday should be the true end.
One question is there a way to get more current rosters and data?
And one comment...I now see why TNA has money problems...I made plenty of money the first month, second month I used Sting once and Jarret 2 times and I was negative quicker than a Ryback match.
That's got updated info for you

From where?
from the same poeple who keep saying CM punk got baried by trips even though he is currently on the longest title run in 4 years.
3DS: 2981-5304-3227
he didn't get buried by trips but the "now trips is in charge but THERES SOMEONE CONSPIRING AGAINST HIM WUH OH" angle taking center stage, despite mr haitches not being an active wrestler in a couple years, didn't help any
I dunno about you, but when CM Punk first dropped his pipebomb shoot promo, my first thought was, "This is going to be a great Triple H storyline."
Yeah, I don't recognize what AJ would look like at 12. I'm guessing it's the girl in the black shirt since there's only one other female fan in the video.
She just...
needs to...
not talk....
like this....
any longer...
Nor does she need to explain her actions. Her exposition about wanting someone to care about her was useless tripe. She's much more effective when she's just acting, and just being her. When they have her try to explain herself, the whole thing falls apart. The last promo of the night was much better than the opening, because Punk and Bryan did the talking. She was manipulating them through their her actions and they were showing it through their words.
Like take last week for example, AJ makes the comment to Eve that she'll get everyone's attention. And while I would have preferred her to motorboat Eve, her just skipping out there....not getting the reaction she wanted, and just kinda looking sad and annoyed. Then going for the table. That works. She didn't have to say a word during that whole segment and it worked. The more of that they do, the better off this is.
Which isn't really anti-AJ, it's anti-shitty writing.
He's actually already been confirmed. Going to FCW. I've not seen the tweet, but I assume he's just trolling or being in-character, to keep some surprise to the people who haven't read the reports.

You mean going to NXT. Although aren't they still using the FCW name for a huge house show Summer tour?
Only for summer.
Unless ratings do consistently good throughout summer, at which point after summer they might just decide to keep it live.
Steam
Bray Wyatt's debut, and a damn good Tyson Kidd/Camancho match.
