I LIVE IN A CARDBOARD BOX!


The crowd looked :unimpressed:


Everyone knew the Pedigree was coming. I think they had been doing this on other after-shows too.



WARNING: Turn down your volume.

Hahaha at some of these near decade old comments in this video:

"@Gilbertdu62 Honestly the best sell I've ever seen, and I'm a huge Triple H fan. Selling a move takes talent, Ryder is going places again...."

"is that how you treat the future of your company mr. hunter hearst helmsley ?"

"IMO, This was a "Test" to read the crowd reaction of BOTH Ryder as a face and HHH as a Heel. It seemed like HHH was still "over" a Face judging from the fans reaction. Thats y they did it off camera. If HHH had done it to PUNK or Cena it would have probably been a totally different crowd reaction."


:mjlol:

Rachel Ellering Reportedly Released From WWE NXT After Making Complaints On The Medical Team - Wrestling Inc.

As noted earlier this week, Rachael Ellering (known as Rachel Evers in WWE NXT) was another talent released from her contract back in April as a part of the company-wide WWE budget cuts brought on by COVID-19.

Ellering reportedly spoke to WWE officials about having issues with the medical team and with medical procedures a few months back, according to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter. Ellering had been doing rehab after her reconstructive knee surgery. Ellering, who worked the first two Mae Young Classic tournaments and signed with NXT in January 2019, suffered a torn ACL in July of last year, and had been on the shelf since then.

Ellering's complaints on the medical team and some of their procedures were reportedly not received well, and that led to her departure. It was reported by the Observer that Ellering, daughter to WWE Hall of Famer Paul Ellering, was given two options a few weeks back. There's no word on those exact options, but both of them reportedly had her getting released. Ellering reportedly chose one of those options, and was then released.

There was a time when Ellering was interested in leaving WWE on her own, but this departure was a company decision.

Add Drew Gulak to the list:



Last night on Friday Night Smackdown, Drew Gulak vs. Daniel Bryan was one of the most entertaining in-ring performances in recent memory on WWE Television. Today, however, PWInsider.com has confirmed that Gulak has exited World Wrestling Entertainment.

WWE quietly moved Gulak to the Alumni section of their website this afternoon but PWInsider.com has been told that Gulak was not released. We have confirmed with multiple sources today that Gulak's WWE contract expired after last night's Smackdown was taped. We are told the two sides had been discussing a new deal, but had not yet come to terms on the deal before Gulak's existing deal expired. This shockingly places Gulak on the open market just hours after one of his best WWE performances to date as he would have no 90-day non-compete as WWE would not be paying him going forward, which means he can appear and wrestle anywhere immediately.

If you think it's a head-scratcher WWE allowed that to happen, you wouldn't be alone, especially since Gulak has evolved into one of WWE's most solid, understated, versatile performers. Something of a modern day Bobby Heenan, Gulak has been something of a chameleon, morphing into whatever role WWE required of him. Whether cast as a serious in-ring performer, a comedic character taking great bumps a la Heenan, being the in-ring glue of Cruiserweight and tag team matches, commentating on WWE TV, working as a manager/second to Daniel Bryan or any other role he's been tasked with, Gulak has quietly excelled.

That's a weird deal.

Bizarre that they'd let Gulak's contract lapse like that. He's got that Jamie Noble-esque utility player quality to him, and those guys can be some of the most useful and important wrestlers to have on the roster. Wouldn't be surprised if they let him and Bryan have the match they had on SmackDown as a final favor to him; I'll be quite interested to see whether he eventually goes back to WWE, goes to AEW, or decides to ply his trade elsewhere.

The Rachel Ellering release is disgraceful, but we've gone over all that ad nauseam. Shouldn't be surprised she got the boot, since her boyfriend was also a part of those releases as well.

Edit: Just saw that, according to Sapp, Gulak chose not to resign. Interesting...

WWE hoarded talent for years just so they couldn't flourish elsewhwere and now they're releasing the hoarded talent during a global pandemic.
:hhh:

I told yall last year this shyt was going to be the end result and as usual Acetrodamus with another prophecy fulfilled:wow:. WWE's greed ends up becoming their biggest self destruction. This pandemic is something Vince can't beat regardless of how many empty arenas pops off or how many DDT dikk biting antics they try to pass off like it's original. There's going to be more endeavors and eyebrow raising shyt that even the most apologetic WWE stan can't Juelz'ed themselves out of.

This shyt isn't normal for a company that's making a killing. Trust, once the XFL shyt goes full blown Vince going to wish the limo exploded with him in it:picard:
