I really think Davey should have gotten a proper send off. He is one of the originals and has done so much for the company for. Given how mediocre Final Battle's undercard looks, they desperately needed The Wolves.

Davey Richards announced tonight that he is officially done with Ring of Honor and will not be appearing at their big Final Battle event in December. Richards and his tag partner Eddie Edwards recently debuted for WWE NXT. Below is a post from his Facebook:

“With a heavy heart (and big paycheck in my pocket) I can announce I announce that myself and ROH have parted ways for good and I will not be at Final Battle. Please continue to support them and the incredible talent they have. Thanks for the memories. It was an amazing ride."

Fixed.
 
Finished PWG Matt Rushmore. This was one of their "weaker" shows and it was still a very good show just shows their consistency. Already got my tickets for ASW10 in a couple weeks. :D
 
The tag division in WWE will be getting stronger soon.

It appears WWE has went back and forth on their plans for the WWE and World Heavyweight Titles since Survivor Series ended. When that pay-per-view was done, a WWE source said despite how it looked on TV, the plan was not to do a unification match. On RAW the next night, WWE went out of their way to not say the words "unification match" but now they are leaning towards having only one champion after Triple H's most recent sitdown interview with Michael Cole. There has been some speculation that there may be some kind of finish at TLC where John Cena and Randy Orton grab each others belts, ending with Cena as the WWE Champion and Orton as the World Heavyweight Champion.

Oh look, exactly what I said.

* Mark Henry - 42

* R-Truth - 41

* Tensai - 41

* The Great Khali - 41

* Triple H - 44

* Undertaker - 48

* William Regal - 45

It should be noted that there is no active WWE wrestler in his fifties.

They'll bring back Tensai in his 40s, but won't look at guys like AJ, Roode and Aries in their mid 30s? Yes, I know there are other factors stated, but a lot of times age has been brought up in the past. Come on, it's a moot point when you got wrestlers that have the talent. Give them a chance.
 
I can already tell just by looking at Cody Hall on YouTube that WWE will sign him eventually. Too bad he doesn't have the cool voice and look like his dad. He's kind of baby faced.

It could be a combination of several things.

1. Tensai has worked for them in the past, so if they have a good relationship with him and know he is a team player, they would be more likely to be willing to work with him.

2. Guys like AJ Styles probably get paid more by TNA than WWE would be willing to spend on them, while I am not sure what kind of money they are throwing at Tensai.

3. Tensai is a low/midcard utility player, and it seems like everyone is ok with that. If they signed some of these TNA guys, they would have to deal with people constantly wanting those guys to be pushed over Vince's guys, which would just lead to more frustration from fans.
 
So I was doing some thinking about WWE's process of having the two most dominant champions--Cena and Orton in their view--of the last decade go against each other at Wrestlemania. It's flat out flawed. Yes, Cena has held 14 world championships and Orton has held 11. But that means that they've lost world championships respectively 13 and 10 times.

Dominance is really about the length of the champion's reign. Cena's longest reign as a world champion is 380 days. Orton's longest reign is 203 days. However, CM Punk's longest reign is 434 days.

So technically, John Cena and CM Punk are the two most dominant world champions of the modern day era, and their encounter is what should be on course for Wrestlemania.
 
Am I alone in not wanting Cena and Orton anywhere near the WMXX main event, and would rather have Daniel Bryan vs. Punk, with Bryan coming out on top?
 
This is a great read, everyone, "Is The WWE On The Verge Of A Fan Revolt?": http://wrestling.insidepulse.com/20...port-is-the-wwe-on-the-verge-of-a-fan-revolt/

And this excerpt about what they could have done to build up Wrestlemania is exactly what I was hoping for considering how the booking was a few months ago before they flushed it down the toilet:

The WWE loves to talk about the WWE Universe but often ignores them when it comes to their decisions on who will be pushed next. But part of it is their own ability to over-complicate things. Wrestlemania could have been built so easily. Bryan wins the WWE Title at Hell In A Cell. He beats, lets say, Dean Ambrose at Survivor Series as the WWE continues to tease tension in The Shield. Triple H then brings back Brock Lesnar to face Bryan at the Rumble. Lesnar wins the Title there. CM Punk wins the Rumble. After HHH screws Bryan over at Elimination Chamber, Bryan challenges HHH to a match at Mania. Meanwhile, Cena challenges The Undertaker. Your Top 3 Matches at Wrestlemania: Lesnar/Punk for the WWE Title, HHH/Bryan, Cena/Taker. That’s a solid card.
 
The WWE fan revolt is only going to result in Vince McMahon going in such a rage where he has to be hospitalized because of it.
 
It'd be hilarious if when Vince returns to television, instead of the expected welcome, the crowd starts chanting "Go home, Vince." :funny:
 
PWG Matt Rushmore ratings:

B-Boy and Willie Mack vs Peter Avalon and Ray Rosas-***

Kevin Steen vs ACH-***

Chuck Taylor and Trent? vs AR Fox and Rich Swann-***1/2

Four-Way Match:
Brian Cage vs Tommaso Ciampa vs Anthony Nese vs Drake Younger-***1/2

Johnny Gargano vs Roderick Strong-***3/4

PWG World Tag Team Championship Match:
The Young Bucks(c) vs Candice LeRae and Joey Ryan-****

PWG World Championship Match:
Adam Cole(c) vs Kyle O'Reilly-***1/4

Overall: 7.75/10

Well regardless, those three matches would've been intriguing and worth paying to see. More than what's being rumored now.

Without a doubt. :( I just hope that due to all the problems WWE have had with that guy leaking results, what we are hearing is WWE spreading misdirection.

Or at least re-evaluate this "dominant champ" stuff they're trying to push. CM Punk was without question a more dominant champion than Orton.
