People in wrestling you thought were going to breakout but didn't View Thread Reply Hide Celt !BzcOsK03.w - Thu, 24 Sep 2020 20:25:29 EST 0CuYXf/X No.6449528 File: 1600993529855.jpg -(396248B / 386.96KB, 1200x1000) Thumbnail displayed, click image for full size. >Discuss people in wrestling you thought were going to take off and elevate their careers significantly but for one reason or another it didn't pan outChristina Von Errie is a wrestler from Reno, NV but who got adopted by the SoCal scene where people first took notice of because of her Brody Dalle-esque Punk Rocker character. She started off in 2008 and by 2010 she was already the "other girl" in PWG, being the only other woman wrestling in the promotion besides Candice LaRae. By the end of 2010, TNA had her come do a dark match for them so they could take a look at her. In 2011, SHIMMER the All women's promotion out of Chicago made her a regular roster member and TNA took her on as "Toxxin", pairing her up with Shannon Moore and Jesse Neal of Ink Inc. While the role was small, get a foot in the door of nationally televised TNA seemed like it meant Christina was going to stay on the radar. Jesse Neal and Von Errie had a whirlwind romance that lead to them getting engaged by July 2011 but the relationship broke apart afterwards. It was around the 2011 point where I thought "Alright, PWG and TNA in the bag, she's about to go somewhere with this now". In 2013 she started picking up dates with CZW and sister promotion WSU, which was around the same time she began engaged to Deathmatch mainstay MASADA and indeed the two worked a few matches with each other. They were also engaged at one point but that also didn't work out. The mid-10s were good for Christina indie-wise, where she was now picking up numerous gigs in promotions across America, however, the TNA gig from 2011 didn't produce as much mileage as I might have thought. Ink Inc didn't go far past 2011 and thus neither did "Toxxin". TNA brought her back years later as the GFW's Women's Champion put that angle ended up a lame duck and didn't lead to much extra work. In that same era she picked up some work with HOODSLAM in Oakland, which I thought might be good for her as new "home" promotion since Christina's punk thing would definitely vibe with them. Being from Reno, she occasionally worked with Reno Scum. Reno Scum ended up working for Impact for a while, but CVE was not brought back in with them. However, by the end of the 10s she was drifted towards Canada and ECCW up in the Vancouver, British Columbia area. This would eventually lead her to meeting and marrying Scotty Mac, a mainstay of that promotion, in what appears to be a very happy marriage. As a result of that, Vancouver and ECCW act as her current base. In 2019 WWE signed Shotzi Blackheart, a Californian chick who started working in 2015 who also runs with an alternative/punk look who had worked with promotions such as HOODSLAM and wrestled Von Errie in a few matches in 2018 before being signed. Shotzi is now doing very well for herself in NXT. I thought between an easy-to-communicate character, a varied experience of working with both guys and girls, and getting a connection with a televised company like TNA would have put CVE on the path to be someone decently visible on the wrestling radar, but for whatever that didn't quite go for her and she remained only ever doing good but not outstanding on the indie scene. Go figure. Who you guys got? 144 posts and 34 images omitted.

THE DIRT SHEET THREAD: THE LATEST FROM MELTZER AND MORE - 27th SEPTEMBER '20 View Thread Reply Hide Christina Von Eerie - Sat, 26 Sep 2020 22:44:49 EST RVuAPKZ9 No.6450244 File: 1601174689884.png -(122650B / 119.78KB, 300x250) Thumbnail displayed, click image for full size. The first few posts are from this week's Wrestling Observer Newsletter. For the full newsletter and much more get a subscription at http://www.f4wonline.com/ Dave Meltzer's star ratings are now posted in their own thread, so look for it. Use this thread to post news as it comes through. Do not use the old thread for anything new, please move discussion to here instead.> COVID has now spread into a number of promotions this past week with a major outbreak in WWE, some in AEW and four of the biggest stars, if not more, in CMLL. All three promotions had to change aspects of their television shows this week. AEW’s television main event was changed. NXT had changes as well as noted by those in the company but were not specific as to what the changes were past there was a significant outbreak. The outbreak was said to affect plans for the Raw brand for 9/28, but there has been no indication it affects the scheduled matches on the 9/27 Clash of Champions a far as participants in the bouts themselves.> However, those who have been training at the Performance Center of late have been taken off Raw or Smackdown tapings until further notice. There is also fear that the large number of Performance Center athletes who were under masks at Retribution may lead to issues due to interacting with the Raw roster on the 9/21 show.> Lance Archer tested positive for COVID this past week which caused the company to change the 9/23 TV show. Archer said that when he got home from the last set of shows two weeks ago, a member of his family was sick. He said that person had been driven to the vet by a friend who turned out to test positive. Archer said that he ended up sick and then tested positive.> Archer was the exception to the rule in the sense that his positive was not wrestling related. Most of the positives in AEW and NXT were related to talent that is in Orlando (not necessarily all, as there is thought some is also related to independent wrestling as some AEW talent and extras have worked some indie dates of late, Ben Carter being the name that has come out although he is not AEW contracted talent). Carter said that he contracted the disease after 9/10, when his recent AEW matches were taped. > Serena Deeb, who just signed an AEW contract and worked the last set of tapings, said that earlier this week she was in contact with someone who tested positive and would be quarantining herself for two weeks. She seemed to target the date as around 9/20 as on 9/24 she said she would be quarantining for another ten days. She was scheduled on the 9/29 UWN PPV show against Allysin Kay. That match has been changed to Kay vs. Nicole Savoy.> With the Orlando area being a hotbed as far as wrestlers go, talent from WWE and AEW socialize, go to the gym together, and some are even in relationships together, as well as socialize with some of the same fans and insiders. One person very familiar with the testing results and spread said that was the key reason why it happened at the same time with both companies. There is also the issue with independent promotions opening up, some with fans in attendance. While some are testing, not all are doing so. WWE talent never works independent shows but the non-contracted AEW talent work as many indies as they can, and some AEW contracted talent still works indies as well.> AEW has acknowledged that the story itself is accurate but due to privacy would not say anything more about it other than Archer has tested positive since he went public with it. AEW has gone a step farther of late in its testing. They are now requiring people to test before coming to Jacksonville and then they get tested a second time on arrival and are not allowed in until the results of the second test come in. With Tony Khan’s NFL connections, he is working with the NFL Covid response team for stricter protocol.> The idea was that since Eddie Kingston actually didn’t go over the top rope in the Battle Royal (which was likely going to be used down the line) that he would get the 9/23 title match. Right now Moxley vs. Archer is scheduled for the 10/14 Anniversary show. The was talk that they hope the planned six-man tag with Archer & Ricky Starks & Brian Cage vs. Moxley & Darby Allin & Will Hobbs would take place on 10/7 based on the idea they are still planning the match and that would be the only date possible to have it sinc… Comment too long.

Smackdown will be preceded by WWE Main Event, and followed by 205 Live. On tonight's show:(Recognised) WWE Intercontinental Champion Jeff Hardy vs. (Unrecognised) WWE Intercontinental Champion Sami Zayn (non-title)Alexa Bliss vs. Lacey Evans.Will Otis hand over his Money In the Bank title shot to The Miz and John Morrison to avoid a lawsuit?WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns gives an exclusive interview on his relationship with cousin Jey UsoClash of Champions is this SundayThe go-home episode of Friday Night SmackDown for Clash Of Champions 2020 will go down tonight with the main focus on all the final hype for the weekend's PPV where all the Championships will be on the line. Announced for the show tonight, Roman Reigns will be seen in a very special interview talking about his family and cousins in the headliner segment, while the Intercontinental Champion will be in action against a man who believes he himself is the champion despite not having the belt.Plus, the WWE's Goddess will compete in a match against Lacey Evans and high dramas around Money in the Bank briefcase should also unfold when WWE airs tonight's edition of SmackDown from the Amway Center in Orlando, Florida.This Sunday, Roman Reigns will face his first Universal Championship defense since winning the belt at Payback 2020 against his cousin, Jey Uso. Just two nights before The Bloodline goes to battle, the champion will have a sit down interview to share his side of the story on his relationship with Jey before the Title Match. The two Samoans have teamed up to secure a pair of wins over Sheamus & King Corbin in the last couple of weeks on SmackDown. But the possible rifts in the relationship were noticed during the Samoan Street Fight win as the two shared an icy staredown instead of a heartfelt celebration. So we can only imagine what only The Big Dog has to offer about one of his family members.Before they go into a title match showdown with AJ Styles at WWE Clash of Champions, Intercontinental Champion Jeff Hardy and Sami Zayn will face off in a non-title match on SmackDown. Zayn has tried to be The Great Liberator which appeared to be nothing more than a trouble-maker gimmick for the champion. Before Hardy goes into the ladder match this Sunday, he seems focused on shutting up Zayn and this non-title match is the best way to do so.Alexa Bliss will compete against Lacey Evans on SmackDown in an interesting matchup. Bliss shockingly hit the Sister Abigail finisher on The Sassy Southern Belle after Cross' win over the latter, last week. The Fiend continues to have some sort of hold over Bliss, sending her into a trance as observed, multiple times in the recent past. The question remains whether the former Women’s Champion is in a proper state to compete in a full-length match.The Miz continues to play mind games with Otis over his possession on Money in the Bank 2020 briefcase. As if losing Mandy Rose to Raw, wasn't enough devastating for him, now he was directed to surrender the MITB contract to The Miz or else, he could be sued by the A-lister. Could the emerging superstar indeed be forced to get rid of this life-altering opportunity, for real? Or he'd find something to hold on to the hopes of becoming a world champion, someday. We'll find out when SmackDown comes up with its latest live edition from the ThunderDome. 72 posts and 19 images omitted.

It doesn't matter if the story has been told (broadly) before, it only matters that you care about the specific people the story is told about and how they're presented, by the author if it's a book, by the performers if it's a more unique storytelling medium like pro wrestling. That's what made Austin/McMahon compelling. It had a unique voice (that they then tried to copy & paste into a million pale knockoffs). It's what made Hogan/Savage compelling. It's what made the nWo compelling. They were all big, archetypal predictable stories told with unique voices. Yes, there was still a final authority on the story, but the wrestlers got to bring in their own unique takes and details and voices that made the stories actually capture people's imagination. That's also why "the face is a hollow idiot sap attention whore with no motivation besides being cheered who underdogs his way to victory against the guy with personality" is awful storytelling that hasn't brought in new viewers in decades. Vince taking creativity and voice away from wrestlers is what's killing the WWE. Vince trying to assign voices to wrestlers that don't at all fit them is a huge problem. That a story is "predictable" is really poor criticism, when the issue is more likely that it's just told really badly. >> Meng - Sun, 27 Sep 2020 11:34:37 EST SdPbl+Wq No.6450340 Reply >>6450320Should've put up a warning for that wall-o'-text my guy.>He's basically Kevin Owens' character in NXTWell this comparison does him no favours.>it's an earned moment (except it's not)You're doing the debunking for me.

It was noted that the stock may continue to fall over the next few months based on four issues the company is facing - the decline in TV ratings, the decline in kids audience, money owed from the 10-year deal with Saudi Arabia, and backlash over the independent contractor status of talents, mainly the recent comments from former booking presidential candidate Andrew Yang.>Regarding the TV decline, VIP noted that WWE RAW has lost around 2 million viewers for most of their 2020 episodes versus 2015 levels. Exclusive data from pollsters YouGov shows that the main reasons behind the decline has to do with low-quality writing in the storylines. YouGov polled 471 adults aged 18 or older who used to watch at least one of WWE NXT, RAW, SmackDown or AEW Dynamite. They collected the following data on reasons why United States viewers stopped watching pro wrestling on TV: * 30% - It seemed more cartoonish than when I liked it * 29% - Storylines were not as good/interesting * 28% - Characters were not as good/interesting * 26% - Matches were not as good/interesting * 14% - The content was more geared toward children * 9% - Announcing was not as good * 7% - The show wasn't listening to the fans * 24% - Other * 12% - Not sure https://www.wrestlinginc.com/news/2020/09/new-data-on-why-adults-are-no-longer-watching-pro-wrestling-675183/Remember when people tried to argue that wrestling is suppose to be silly?

Now all 20 wrestlers in the tournament are out of the starting blocks; with just three members undefeated at the present moment, it’s already looking hotly competitive, while those at the bottom of the table will need to pick up their game tonight or risk being on the bubble by the mid point of their campaign.
