Poof! Little particles of the Wrestling Thread, go floating through the air!

Won't matter anyway with Paige conisidering she turns 21 in roughly 2 weeks.

 

[Dr. Evil]

If Paige loses the title at the next set of NXT Tapings, a roster call up is likely soon.

When I read this I just feel like Pinky wrote the dialogue for the guy in the red cap.

 

[Hunter Rider]

Too bad they can't decide whether she's a face or a heel.

And I find it odd how they won't bring Paige up to the roster because apparently they don't want anyone under 21 on the road and yet JoJo IS on the road and she's 19.

It might be due to Paige being an actual in ring worker.

I keep seeing her on TNA photoshoots but what exactly does she do at TNA? Is she a wrestler, valet, interviewer, etc?

You give me too much credit: there's no fart joke in the punchline, so it can't be mine. t:

I think she acts as a sort of host for the live crowd.

Don't sell yourself short man, you've dropped fartless gems on a regular basis!

I think they are bringing Paige up. Didn't they run Paige promo on Smackdown a couple weeks ago or did I imagine that?

ABA Undertaker from the Special Edition(He'll most likely be available months later anyway)

I wish 2k would have taken over in the making of the game and not hired Yukes to do it.

2K will have more control for 2K15,Yukes will still be developing But at least they will be using a brand new game engine for next-gen(they've been working on it for a year or two now)and the NBA 2K Team will be working with them more too with them more in charge

 

[rorybreaker]

Wish Netflix in the UK had WWE stuff on it

Google 'Media Hint', it's a Firefox and Chrome plug in

 

[Slushy]

Christy Hemme is the ring announcer. Val is a valet, interviewer, and ringside attendant.

I had a dream a couple of nights ago that there was a wrestler in the WWE called The Unnamed Patriot.

Why would a non-wrestling fan watch a wrestling show for any reason? I don't get how people just decide to change the channel for certain segments either, but that's more on me (I'd just stop paying attention, but changing the channel would mean that I'd miss parts of whatever I changed to, and I don't like flipping back and forth).

I know I don't get it either. There are plenty of good shows on TV that give people the other aspects of WWE. What's the point of watching WWE if you don't like wrestling at all?

 

[Pink Ranger]

Don't sell yourself short man, you've dropped fartless gems on a regular basis!

And hello out-of-context new sig!

 

[Lobo]

The Wrestling Thread Drops Fartless Gems needs to be our thread title

 

[Wheels]

The Wrestling Thread Drops Fartless Gems needs to be our thread title

I second this.

 

[Pink Ranger]

The Wrestling Thread Drops Fartless Gems needs to be our thread title

Good idea. But we need the full sentence, including "on a regular basis" for maximum effect.

The Rock recently did an interview for The Province, and when asked about a potential return to WWE and pro wrestling, he had the following to say:

"I’d like to leave it open. But if I’d never wrestle again, I’d be very content with that. Winning or losing never really mattered to me. The whole idea was to put on a great match. Got injured in that match. Still was able to walk out on my own, which I was more happy about. I don’t know. We’ll see."
