where is the gofundme for Foley's surgery and why isn't it up yet
Dude has the money to pay for the surgery, as he said in his post. He's weighing his options.
I wonder if there's also a factor in this where he would essentially have to walk away from his position on Raw for all the time off needed to be able get the surgery and recover.

Kurt Angle is once again telling people he'll be returning the WWE soon.
I really, really want to see him get one final due, ala Ultimate Warrior. Get him in the ring, soak up the "Thank you chants", give a nice speech and induct him into HOF.
Though if I was going to fantasy book, the obvious path is him coming out to help even the odds in a Wyatt Family/American Alpha feud.

My money is on a Goldberg send off....one last short mostly PPV program with 2-3 matches then a transition to either manager or Pre-show talking head. American Alpha would be perfect but I think Angle isn't content to go out without one more go in the ring on the biggest stage.
Took Cesaro for my first pick in my Wrestling draft, so now I have Cena and Cesaro, hoping I can get Braun next but im dead last in that round and I was first in this.
He's been wrestling since 2002 and is 31 years old, he'd already be or have been in MMA by now if he wanted to.
While that is a good point, never forget Punk was wrestling since around 2000 til 2014 and then decided MMA was a good idea in his late 30's...so anything could happen, just really depends on what kind of person Tommy End is for real

worked out super well for punk too
I'd hope End would want to actually, ya know, win some MMA bouts though even if he'd still get paid a lot.
But in fairness Punk will probably fight again so maybe he does better.
Sami winning the Rumble would probably be my favorite option.
Especially if he comes in at a very early number AND eliminates Braun as one of the final four who comes out near the end. It'd be a neat way to build on the story of Sami being able to survive against him in that 10-minute time-limit match because he'd have a big moment of "defeating" Braun in the Rumble after already lasting 20+ minutes.

I won't hate Taker winning, but him being chosen over guys like Sami and Cesaro just, sigh.
And them not winning doesn't even mean they're buried or won't have more success later on! But Taker has had great moments for the last 25 years.
And I really want Angle to enter the Rumble at a decent number. It'd create the insane kind of energising pop that happened during Jericho's surprise number 2 entry.

I wonder how Samoa Joe is going to fare in the Rumble? Does he dump a bunch of smaller guys or does he dump a couple bigger guys? Or, and this could be interesting, does he dump a monster like Goldberg or Lesnar or Strowman?
I'm not posting this to wind people up just to be clear, just that I think it's a legit discussion regarding how WWE does business. Some blog member asked the guy running it (who admits he doesn't like the current WWE product except for SDL recently) was asked, "Just curious who you think will be the next big call-up from NXT to Raw or Smackdown? Thanks Again." And his response?
"Why would anyone need to leave NXT? We can watch them every week on the WWE Network, just like HHH said. What’s the point of putting them on a show people actually watch when it’s a much better use of the investment to have them kill each other for 400 people a night on spot shows in Florida?
Man, clearly no one but HHH knows how to run a wrestling business."
I'm almost positive NXT still doesn't make WWE a profit still despite being so critically acclaimed. Is it not unreasonable to ask why they don't concentrate on putting this much effort into getting great talent on "actual" television? Would people really be OK with Nakamura staying in NXT his whole WWE career?

Maybe he dumps Cesaro and we get that program.
Samoa Joe eliminates Cesaro and Sheamus and then goes for the tag titles on his own.
Now that you mention it, I do want to see him throw out a couple really big dudes.
Wait, so a guy who did absolutely nothing of note in WWE, had absolutely no merchandise, and left the company years ago, is still getting royalty cheques at all? Lucky guy!

'I saw the New Day entrance and it’s funny because if you enjoy wrestling, you might remember a guy by the name of Trent Baretta. He texted me and goes “I’m sorry.” I go “for what?”. Turns out he was doing the [motion capture] for the game and did my entrance. “I watched it a hundred times and tried to do my best, but I can’t move like you so I hope you like it. I’m sorry”. I’m like, I’m sure you did fine, but then watched it and yep, that’s Trent [laughs]. That’s definitely Trent dancing.'

Smackdown Live gets Money in the Bank, Raw gets Hunter on a Pole.
The winner of each gets pretty much the same deal in the end.
Like Mega Man Legends? Then check out my story, Legends of the Halcyon Era - An Adventure in the World of Mega Man Legends on TMMN and AO3!

I think he would be fantastic in a lot of speaking roles...he would probably make for a great color man, he is articulate and knows so much.
So....How long til he wants to go into a UFC career too?

I like the part where he tries to choke the punching bag.

Trent Barretta.
I was gonna re-up for the Rumble anyway but if Mr. End shows up on TV soon I may be routing for him.
I'm trying to figure out what he even got it for.
aw, Trent?.....

I'm all for this
