Add HBO to the pile of networks that have made recent changes in regards to their TV sports divisions.

While not a pro wrestling story, Peter Nelson is out as President of HBO Sports in another major change in a week for many in the sports industry.
Link: https://awfulannouncing.com/hbo/hbo-sports-president-peter-nelson-is-out-amidst-a-wider-restructuring-of-that-division.html

Since FOX dropped a bunch of sports and wrestling-related programming for FS1, NBC, TNT, BeIN Sports, and now HBO all have had big shakeups associated with their sports (and wrestling) divisions during this on-going pandemic.

Both NXT and and AEW ran their last shows in front of normal audiences on March 11th, which was a "shit's getting real" moment for the US as the NBA shut everything down over Rudy Gobert's positive test and the other leagues all followed suit the next day.

AEW had run 23 Dynamites prior to that, skipping a week for Christmas. The August 26th Dynamite (which will air the next day) will mark the point where they've had more COVID-impacted episodes than regular ones.

Since NXT went on the USA Network, they had run 26 episodes with one of them being a clip show at New Years. Right after the pandemic, the first two episodes were also clip shows and the September 16th episode, two days before their one year anniversary on USA, would be their tipping point of having more COVID-impacted episodes.

Also from the same Observer Newsletter issue, Meltzer speculated that TNT/HBO could be a potential home for The Rock's XFL due to The Rock's connections with the new boss of WarnerMedia's TV division.

On 8/7, seemingly out of the blue WarnerMedia CEO announced in a memo to staff that Reilly and Bob Greenblatt were out, and that Casey Bloys and Ann Sarnoff were their replacements.

Bloys, who has been the President of HBO, will now oversee HBO Max, TNT, TBS and Tru TV ...

It’s unknown what Bloys thinks about pro wrestling. He did attend Freedom High School in Bethlehem, PA, and was a classmate of Dwayne Johnson. The two didn’t know each other in school. Bloys was aware of Johnson, who was a high school All-American football player at the time. He also knew that Johnson came from a family of pro wrestlers. Bloys and Johnson know each other now, as Bloys greenlit Johnson’s show “Ballers” for HBO.

On paper, this move sounds good for Johnson in an attempt to get a paying television deal for the XFL.

XFL's tv deals with FOX and ABC ended when they filed for bankruptcy I think.

Based on a quick search, seems ESPN isn't that interested in signing a new deal which likely also means ABC is out. FOX seems to still be interested but recent rumors hinted they won't be as generous as before for a new potential deal.

Even with the Rock's name behind the league, going to be a hard sell to get a real good deal since the league already has failed twice.

True but even without the virus, ratings for games started falling hard shortly into the season.

Unlike the first XFL, FOX and ESPN/ABC weren't going to pull the plug on their end of the deal as quickly as NBC did back in the day but XFL probably would have lasted like 2 seasons at most had things continued the way they were trending.

Even The Rock's Titan Games series had a bit of a worrying issue pop up right at the end of its recent season. Season finales usually end up being the highest or second highest of a season but the recent season finale of his show ended up being the second least watched episode instead.

That doesn't change the fact that the Rock is going to have a tough time trying to get a good tv deal for the XFL considering ESPN and FOX are not as open arms as they were before and Vince damaging the brand's image with the antics he pulled off.

Rock's group already stated they are not interested in losing a ton of money to restart the league which is going to handicap the potential and chances of a second revival. Even Vince ended up bluffing when he claimed to be committed for the long term and willing to lose several hundred millions of dollars early on.

None of that Vince stuff has anything to do with The Rock's ownership. His strategy may not be shock and awe, but he might also get a great TV deal out the gate. You just don't know with the demand for live entertainment, especially post-pandemic and with new ownership.

It does when it comes to people getting soured on the brand's name and why XFL only had one real bidder for the league when it came to actual deals on the table.

Rock probably could have gotten the league for even cheaper if it actually went to auction based on the low real interest for it.

ESPN released a statement when the league was getting close to the auction date saying they don't have any interest in the league if Vince isn't running it anymore.

Seems Velveteen Dream has serious heat backstage in NXT although less on something he actually did recently and more on WWE's dumb decision to bring him back following the wave of accusations that swept through the wrestling industry.

According to Fightful Select (subscription required), NXT talent were made aware of his return minutes before he performed. Dream has been subject to “significant heat” backstage for behaviour issues, which may get others fired. Some believe Velveteen Dream is getting preferential treatment.

“There has long been significant heat on Velveteen Dream for behavioral issues and what is perceived as preferential treatment in multiple situations that would have had most anyone else fired.” Fightful stated. “This was also the case with his return”

Considering Sean Ross Sapp mentioned before that the chatter within the company following his recent allegations and car accident he caused was one of him being released soon, someone(s) higher up must have thought everyone would just forget and sweep the whole thing under the rug.

No, it doesn’t. That’s you projecting your feelings onto something to make what Dave says more credible. The Rock probably knows studio heads all over the place. It probably doesn’t matter if he does or not. The business decision of putting on The Rock’s football league will be based upon whether or not a network sees value in putting on The Rock’s football league.

How is the stuff about Dream bullshit when that's been an issue with him for the past several years.

WWE's fired people for way less than what's been told about Dream over the years, both stuff he's actually done and stuff he's been accused of.

And what's with you always resorting back to the Meltzer card whenever you take offense to something I post. The stuff about XFL's damaged image within the sports world and FOX & ESPN being not as open arms for XFL under new ownership didn't even come from him. Meltzer wasn't even the only one to report on the lack of real bidders for the league. Even Rock's name value and co-ownership raised doubts elsewhere of him actually being able to get a good tv deal for the league.

Either him or Triple H considering NXT and developmental is mainly in Triple H's realm of control.

Not the first time Triple H has defended troubled people with running accusations in the company since he was the biggest supporter of Bill Demott during Demott's time in charge of developmental that got plagued with accusations near the end. Before that, it was him defending a member of the company's staff who allegedly made slurs against Del Rio and Ricardo when both were in the company although supposedly that was more due to that guy threatened to sue the company if he was fired.

Already some speculations WWE won't do anything to Jordan Devlin either despite him being among those accused from WWE that had the strongest allegations and evidence against him. Out of the notable 5 names that had the bulk of the accusations or evidence against them, seems him, Riddle, and Dream might remain unscathed while El Ligerio and Gallagher took the brunt of WWE's punishments.

How is the stuff about Dream bullshit when that's been an issue with him for the past several years.

WWE's fired people for way less than what's been told about Dream over the years, both stuff he's actually done and stuff he's been accused of.

And what's with you always resorting back to the Meltzer card whenever you take offense to something I post. The stuff about XFL's damaged image within the sports world and FOX & ESPN being not as open arms for XFL under new ownership didn't even come from him. Meltzer wasn't even the only one to report on the lack of real bidders for the league. Even Rock's name value and co-ownership raised doubts elsewhere of him actually being able to get a good tv deal for the league.

"Dream is about to get fired."

*Dream doesn't get fired.*

How can you not see how this is bullshit? The WWE obviously wants to use him. Hence why they are using him. The stories about the WWE trying to distance themselves from him were bullshit. How do I know? Because of what is actually happening.

at this point i wouldn't be surprised if he argued with you about the earth being a sphere because meltzer reported it.

No, I would argue with Smeat if he said "The world is a cube" just because Meltzer said it was. Then when people show him a photo of it being round, him going "Hmm, I guess they changed their minds on it being a cube."

Wouldn't be surprised if they just stuck him with whatever DLC pack will have Mr Perfect. The modern roster for DLC looks pretty weak compared to the modern launch roster although the classic DLC roster looks better than the classic launch one.

DLC roster is probably going to cost the same as the game itself and maybe even more if they don't do 4 packs at $10 each.

Which theme is it?

Legit question, since it could either be Real American, Reborn, or Battlescars... and different people would buy it for different songs.

I hope this evolves to something like the wrestling equivalent of the "Wilhelm scream", and the guy he shoved does the same thing several years from now when HE's a star, and it keeps perpetuating.

It seems to be half-remake of Mr. Perfect’s theme and half-shitty filler.

The greatest theme that nobody talks about is in fact Deuce ‘n’ Domino’s theme.

According to Triple H, the reason why Velveteen Dream was brought back to NXT television was due to WWE not finding anything during their investigation of him.

Considering one of his accusers stated that he was never contacted for any investigation, WWE pretty much swept another one of Dream's problems under the rug.

"You look into them the best you can, and you find out what is there and what isn't. In this situation, [Clark] was also involved in a car accident. That's what took him off TV. In the moment, all this other stuff happens and you look into it and you find that there is a situation that people bring to everyone's attention, you look into it and find that it is what it is and there's nothing there. Everything that we have done, we are comfortable with him continuing to do what he does and everything else. But he had a car accident. It stemmed down to people thought we removed him from TV for different reasons. We didn't. He was in a car accident. Once he was medically cleared to be able to return to the ring from his car accident, we continued forward the way we did. We looked into what was there and we didn't find anything."

According to Goldberg, his current deal with WWE lasts till 2023 and includes two matches per year as part of the terms.

While appearing on the Pop Culture Show podcast earlier this week, WWE Hall of Famer Bill Goldberg revealed he is still under a WWE deal that will see him perform in two matches as year through 2023.

Goldberg commented:

"I am contracted with the WWE for the next two years through 2022, '23. I've got two matches per year. I've exhausted my limit this year quite early on April the fifth with WrestleMania under these really weird circumstances. But I've got a couple other extremely interesting projects right on the cusp, but as you guys know in the entertainment business right now everything's on hold unless it's a production of 10 or under pretty much. We got a lot of cool things that people are going to find out about pretty soon. My WWE commitment is still going strong. At 53, I never would've imagined especially after making fun of Flair when he was doing it in his early 40s."

Wonder if her leaving is related to WWE's rumored plans for Talking Smack's revival.

Like she recently found out she wasn't going to involved for it's revival and lost whatever interest she had left in the company.

Within the past few months, she lost WWE Backstage which she seemed to have been very fond of and took some backstage heat for going public with having coronavirus and potentially infecting others.

Renee probably would have had a better chance to learn and improve had she been with just Cole on RAW commentary or with a different commentary team that didn't have Graves.

Graves was insufferable when paired with Saxton or Renee.

According to Fightful, Buff Bagwell was involved in a car accident earlier this week and suffered serious injuries.

Buff Bagwell, real name Marcus Bagwell, has been involved in an accident that resulted in serious injuries.

The Cobb County Police Department Selective Traffic Enforcement Program (STEP) Unit is currently investigating a traffic collision that took place on the afternoon of August 16 in Georgia. According to the report from the STEP Unit, the 50-year-old Bagwell lost control of his Chevrolet Tahoe going through a curve.

Bagwell then collided into a free-standing bathroom at the Cobb County Transit (CCT) bus station. He was transported to Wellstar Kennestone Hospital with serious injuries.

It's a hefty assumption. How do you know she's leaving because of her husband, and not because the company keeps taking away the shows she is very good at hosting? Or because she wants a break to spend time with family? Or, as Gertner suggested, she could just be done with rasslin.

Maybe you are just an unhappy person. You can't make an intelligent discussion on any topic, you just come in here with insults and cuss words. That does not make you right, it makes you sound like a child having a tantrum.

There is no AEW hate here. In the situation of Renee Young, where she made her name reporting on WWE in Canada, where she stated many times over the years that WWE was her dream job, then it is dumb that just because her husband is bitter with WWE because he failed when given a chance to be a top star, should not make her give up the job she worked for.

In fact, my biggest point was that she is now like AJ Lee, who worked hard to work for WWE, who loved WWE so much that she tattooed the date she won championships on her neck, only to walk away because her husband was bitter with WWE, which by the way, has nothing whatsoever to do with hating on AEW.

In fact, if it was not for such dedicated angry AEW chest beaters like you, I wouldn't give AEW much thought outside of the few hours they are on TV.

Why are you stuck on the point that Renee is giving up her job because her husband left the company? Where is this being reported or even hinted? The comparison to Punk and A.J. Lee doesn't fit here.

People can leave jobs for several reasons. Maybe she didn't feel safe going to work anymore because not everyone wore a mask. Maybe she's done with the business or has another project in the works.

You assumed Renee was leaving because of her husband, then took a weird shot at AEW for some reason, then whined when you were called on both of those things. No one is "out to get you." We just respond to the dumb shit you say.

Another thing to consider - I don't know if Renee and Mox want kids but she turns 35 in a month. While women on average are having kids later than many of our parents' generation did....a lot of women still view mid to late 30s as now or never time.

Could well just be that she'd like to focus on being a mom and do some side projects in the interim.

Sometimes it's fun to exaggerate and go to town on AEW because a bunch of you get upset, but the general sentiment is the truth, and that stings people the most.

AEW is bad wrestling. Argue against that point. No one does. They just say things like "I think AEW sucks too, but I think you're a wanker and yadda, yadda, yadda." I'm getting real sick of the "Why not let people enjoy AEW if that's what they enjoy?" straw-man. Sure, go and enjoy bad wrestling.

I in fact admitted I took a shot at Brandy Rhodes as an executive. Guilty as charged. What I didn't do is say anything about AEW or the quality of their product.

If we are talking simple terms, my original post about Renee leaving was that I critiqued the decision by referencing 2 former WWE employees who left WWE, one of which influenced the other. They did not go to AEW, so how that meant I was implying AEW is bad is beyond me.

No matter what I post, the replies are that I should stop saying I hate AEW. What I hate is this lines drawn mentality that everything is always about AEW, and either you are on their side (even if you don't actually like them) or you are stupid and against them (even if you watch them every week and enjoy the show).

That was NOT my first post about it. That was a reply to Baron saying he thought she would be done with wrestling.

That however was not a potshot at the product AEW produces. It was a prediction that she would preach the narrative, that is pushed incessantly, that AEW is the greatest place to work. That does not mean I am badmouthing the TV show, that just means the actual narrative is predictable and annoying.

It doesn't mean I'll stop following Dynamite, it just means I won't need to listen to yet another Jericho podcast about how WWE is such a bad place to work.

The narrative is predictable because as stated before, regardless of the product itself, AEW is very likely a more fun place to work.

I'm sure it is, but what does it accomplish? Just be AEW, not keep harping about WWE. I didn't like it when Impact did it, and I don't like it now. If they keep talking about WWE all the time, I might as well just follow WWE.

Prichard supposedly wants to lessen his workload since its gotten too much for him to handle.

The serious injuries Buff Bagwell suffered from his car accident earlier this week were recently revealed.

Former WCW star Marcus "Buff" Bagwell suffered a broken right hip, broken rubs, a broken left eye socket bone, a torn groin and has lots of bruising from the car wreck he was in this past Saturday 8/16, according to UCW promoter Ron Gossett. Miraculously, Gossett noted that Bagwell will not require surgery.

According to an announcement released on 8/18 by authorities seeking witnesses, Bagwell was driving a 2013 Chevrolet Tahoe while driving West on Cumberland Boulevard towards Cumberland Parkway in Cobb County on Sunday 8/16. Around 5:18 PM, Bagwell lost control as he followed a curve in the road, striking the center median and a metal fence inside the median, before driving towards oncoming traffic on the opposite side of the road. The car then hit the curb before colliding a "free-standing bathroom" next to a bus station.

Bagwell was transported to Wellstar Kennestone Hospital in Marietta, GA with serious injuries. The announcement noted that "Investigators believe Bagwell was impaired by prescription medication during the collision."

I'm bored and want to make a weird prediction: I think The Rock gets back into wrestling in 2021. Ronda Rousey's WWE deal expires in April 2021. I can see Rock signing her to be his big female star. With Ronda Rousey and The Rock involved, it ends up with a really cushy TV deal. Vince sees this as a good time to move on. Tom Prichard and Glen Jacobs' school becomes the official developmental territory for it. The XFL and Titan Games are used as a pool for future talent.

*Real quick pretext, I am about to post a link in which Jim Ross is being his normal lying self. This is a bash on JR only, not AEW.*

https://www.wrestlinginc.com/news/2020/08/jim-ross-thinks-his-commentary-being-edited-out-of-wwe-is-a-673894/

WWE's brand new WWE 24 that debuted on the WWE Network about Wrestlemania 36. During this BRAND NEW show, what do you know, there is commentary by, wait for it, Jim Ross!

SHOCKING right? JR just went on a rant how WWE has edited him out of shows, because of AEW, according to this old blowhard carny. So why then would WWE include JR's voice on a new documentary that they just made?

That bothers me.

I don't know, I didn't used to. It's just been a year+ of this kind of stuff. I think part of it is they shouldn't be so actively turning people off with outright lies like JR here. It doesn't make me think "mean WWE, go JR" but instead "JR is boldface lying, the hell with him".

Well, to be fair, he had to label Mandy "All That Is Woman" in NXT, and had to audibly gush more than Jerry Lawler looking at tits back when Eva Marie "sexily" stumbled her way down to a wrestling ring to potentially injure her opponent or herself or both, because in Vince's mind, her being a huge bitch on an auxillary show nobody gives a fuck about automatically translates into the biggest heel in the company and next coming of Sable that needs the entire Divas division built around her (and luckily,they begrudgingly pulled the plug on that nonsense).

Fightful reports WWE has another PPV scheduled for 9.27.20

Emperor Smeat
08-25-2020, 05:31 PM
Apparently Keith Lee's theme got changed for his RAW debut due to issues with royalties involving CFO$.

Much was made about Keith Lee's new WWE theme, which debuted on WWE Raw and was poorly received by fans and critics alike. Fightful has learned that Lee signed off on the change, but WWE has also been urging talent to ditch their CFO$ themes. The former WWE music group no longer works with WWE, and signed a terrible deal with their publisher that sees the publisher get half the royalties. WWE does not have the same publishing deal with the group as Jim Johnston, which is why we've seen so many changes to music over the last year or so. There have been some wrestlers that hated the music presented as replacements so much, they outright rejected the changes.

On the bright side, the company supposedly has big plans for him but if last night was any indication, they are likely going to struggle trying to pull that off.

As WWE announced last night, Keith Lee will be debuting on the Raw brand. He has been officially called up and we are told the plan is to present him as one of the brand's top babyfaces going forward.

According to Pro Wrestling Sheet, WWE invited Wade Barrett to be a guest commentator for this week's episode of NXT.

Pro Wrestling Sheet has learned former WWE star Wade Barrett will be joining the NXT announce team this week.

Sources tell us this is just a one-shot deal for now and that the former leader of Nexus – who won the first original season of NXT – has not signed a full-time deal to re-join the company.

Barrett aka Stu Bennett was released from WWE in 2016 after telling the company he did not intend to renew his contract once it expired. Since then, he’s focused on his acting career and most recently did announcing for Billy Corgan’s National Wrestling Alliance.

Emperor Smeat

I'd go with Brock's German Suplexes mainly because he's been spamming them way too much for his matches. Sometimes he manages to launch someone really well with a German but other times it just gets spammed for the sake of it and as a lazy match storytelling device.

Kenny's Snap Dragons sometimes look a bit sloppy but between the two, his Snap Dragons look more vicious as a move.

Emperor Smeat

NXT caught a big break today in terms of competition due to NBA postponing all of today's playoff games due to recent police brutality protests in Wisconsin.

Bucks boycotting tonight's game and both the Celtics and Raptors considering doing the same for their game tonight played a big role in NBA's decision.

Only notable sports competition tonight is NHL's Game 3 between Tampa Bay and Boston. MLB does have New York Yankees vs. Atlanta Braves going on while NXT is airing but that's just a regular season game and not as big of a ratings magnet as other traditional big matchups MLB has for regular season games.

Fignuts
08-26-2020, 06:17 PM
Brock spamming the German doesn’t have anything to do with how impressive it is. He’s still chucking 200-300 pound guys across the ring.

The snap dragon suplex is just Kenny falling backwards. It’s more like a reverse skull crushing finale, than a suplex.

Emperor Smeat
08-26-2020, 10:25 PM
How so since they avoided having to deal with the latter half of the Thunder vs. Rockets game against their first hour and the first half of the Trail Blazers vs. Lakers game against their 2nd hour.

NHL playoffs usually do decent numbers but it hasn't been major sports competition for WWE in a long while.

NXT did have to go against the 2020 Republican National Convention this week but compared to last week, a lot less stiff competition for them tonight.

i remember seeing that pic, agreed. she's gorgeous


Cornette is right about most things. Peeps can hate all they want, but he speaks the truth.
i don't get the hate. has to be from people that have never been listeners of the shows or heard him shoot or laughed at funny things

He's mostly correct but he can be, imo, exhaustingto listen to.

He's mostly correct but he can be, imo, exhaustingto listen to.

A fair analysis, but you cannot argue his passion. Cornette and I agree on 95% of his opinions, but I value his insight on the 5% where we differ because I am open to hearing about the other side. This is the problem with the world, they are not open to the other side. 100% or 0%, no 60%

Cornette is the last genius of wrestling. And wrestling fans are the worst. Wrestling has done that to itself.

According to the Observer, WWE has had around 38 people test positive for the coronavirus since their first positive case earlier in the year.

Also unlike with the intital positive cases, the company had stopped informing talent and staff at their Performance Center of who was testing positive for the virus.

Kayla Braxton's first bout with the coronavirus was also revealed to have been caused by a dinner outing she had with friends and not while working at WWE's PC at the time.

Cornette is right most of the time because his arguments are based on logic and things just making sense.

Brian Last was right to blow up on him for skipping Io vs Dakota though. That was a good match. I've banged on about the problems with modern women's wrestling on here before, so I don't blame Cornette for skipping women's matches but fuck's sake, he keeps watching the shitty ones, and skipping over the good ones. No wonder Brian lost it.

Didn't he also get into some hot water recently in regards to him saying WWE should have fired both Sonya Deville and Mandy Rose for breaking kayfabe following Deville's stalker incident.

Him and Meltzer have had some really bad opinions and views on women's wrestling in recent times.
