WM isn't coming here.

In March, it is like what 40-50 degrees outside? That would get ugly real fast

 

They seem fairly locked into stadiums at this point so its either the south or a dome going forward, I would think.

 

You know what could be cool? A college football stadium. It would never happen, but Wrestlemania at Bryant-Denny Stadium would be a neat atmosphere.

 

The biggest college stadiums in a "real" city would be Texas Memorial, the Cotton Bowl, the Rose Bowl, Husky Stadium, the Citrus Bowl, and Rice Stadium.

 

I actually think Husy Stadium would be beat, but if you were doing an outdoor show in Seattle, you would obviously CenturyLink Field.

I mean there has to be one at JerryWorld right? Vince and Jerry seem like a match made in heaven.

The thing with ROH is that if it gets a tv timeslot I could see it surpassing TNA. Keep in mind, too, that when WWE looks for talent outside of developmental (which is rarer nowadays), they have taken quite a few ROH guys and practically no TNA. Bryan, Punk, Steen is rumored, ect.

That doesn't necessarily make ROH better, but it does put them on the map.

Well they did have it outside at MetLife Stadium a couple of years ago.

 

And it was horrible. I was there.

ROH is nothing more than a glorified farm system for BOTH the WWE and TNA.

It might surpass TNA simply by default if Spike TV throws in the towel.

 

ROH is fine for what it is. I don't think it's ever going to get much bigger than that, because it plays to a niche of a niche of a niche.

 

That's really how I started thinking of pro wrestling. It's part of the combat sports niche (UFC, MMA, boxing, pro wrestling, and such). Pro wrestling is niche of that (scripted "sports entertainment.") ROH is a small niche of that ("Real" scripted sports entertainment or something). To some degree, I feel like we arguing whether a low-rent version of the Globetrotters could ever surpass another low rent version of the Globetrotters.

By the way, did you all know that the Ice Capades have been out of business for nearly 20 years? What the hell? How did I not know this?

I'm not really a fan of Daniel Bryan, but this guy is having one of the most messed up years I've ever seen. 

 

He had to KO some fool that broke internet his home: http://www.tmz.com/2014/07/25/daniel-bryan-wwe-champion-stops-burglar-submission-robbery/

 

Before that:

Father passed away

Connor his make a wish child passed away

The neck surgery

Might need another surgery 

Wife got fired (ok maybe this doesn't count lol)

Now this crazy guy 

 

Have I missed anything?

Yes! Former WWE champ catches suspected burglar
 


PHOENIX (AP) - A former WWE champion known as Daniel Bryan chased two burglary suspects he saw exiting his Phoenix home this week and subdued one until officers arrived, investigators said.


According to police, Bryan Danielson and his wife, Brianna, drove into the carport of their Arcadia home and saw a door to the house start to open.


That's when Danielson and his wife, a fellow former WWE star known as Brie Bella, ran inside to check on their dog, Josie.


"I saw the guys running out the back. I chased them. I caught one of them. I kept him until police got there," Danielson said.


Danielson and Cesar Sosa, 22, got into a struggle, but the former champ subdued him until officers arrived, Phoenix police Sgt. Tommy Thompson said. The second suspect got away.


The former champ said he didn't have to apply the "Yes! lock" - his signature move- to get Sosa to surrender, but he did put him in a rear naked choke hold.


"Unfortunately, he wasn't in very good shape," Danielson said. "So, it didn't take much."


Sosa was arrested and faces a burglary charge. It was not known if he had an attorney who could be reached for comment.

Question for all my fellow wrestling peeps.  If you had your own entrance music, waking up and coming down the stairs, arriving at work, etc.  what would it be?

 

Rules are, it cannot be any entrance music already used by a wrestler or former wrestler, nor can it be former music used by either (i.e. American Badass for the Undertaker).

 

While there are a lot of songs I'd like to use, I think I'd have to go with Prodigy, Smack My **** Up.
