So Cena's big announcement is that he will be in the MITB match? Uh...alright. For the love, can WWE please learn that the entire audience hates Vickie with a passion. And it isn't the good kind of heat, it is honest dislike...nobody likes that annoying bitch.

Go Jericho in MITB! I hope he wins.

Money in the Bank's shaping up to be diabolical. A MITB match with all former WWE champions? F**k that! The whole point of the MITB match is to give a midcard superstar his push to the top and his first world title reign (CM Punk, Daniel Bryan, etc.).

And only can the divas have a battle royal last less than four minutes. What was the point of that match, anyway? If the winner got a Divas title shot (would have been a perfect opportunity to put the title on AJ!), then I wouldn't be complaining about it, but it was just a bathroom break-type match (usually whenever Heath Slater is jobbing to regular superstars, not legends like he is right now).

OK, get in predictions for which legend Heath Slater will be jobbing to next! I'll go with Gangrel. :p

Brings up an interesting point though; why is WWE PG if almost 3/4 of their audience are over 21?

Because if they aren't PG, they risk losing that other quarter, but if they are PG, they can have both the quarter and the three quarters. Most over 21s won't boycott WWE just because it isn't PG, but some (perhaps many) parents might not let their kids watch it if it isn't PG. I think it shouldn't be PG, though :p

It's being reported that former WWE and WCW star Bill Goldberg reached out to Brock Lesnar to discuss a potential angle between the two of them that would see Goldberg make his return to pro wrestling.

One problem, however, is that Brock Lesnar only has two major dates left on his WWE deal, one with Triple H at SummerSlam, and the other with his opponent at WrestleMania.

It was pretty much a rhetorical question. :p I knew that was the reason they switched to PG back when Linda first attempted to run for senate in 2008 (and failed spectacularly) to try and avoid critics using WWE as a weapon against her, but guess what, that failed. :p

Maxine reportedly quits WWE; frustrated with officials

Maxine, who's been seen mostly on WWE NXT and a few Raw appearances, including Monday's Battle Royal, has quit the company and is gone, according to WWE sources.

The word making the rounds is that she had been frustrated with a number of things, including not being offered a guaranteed deal and not having the chance to prove herself on TV beyond the WWE NXT level.

Maxine, real name Karlee Perez, signed a WWE developmental deal in 2009. After wrestling for Florida Championship Wrestling, she was brought up to NXT for the all Divas third season. She returned to NXT as part of the retribution season four and became involved in a triangle with Derek Bateman and Johnny Curtis.

Sucks if this is true. She's actually fairly enjoyable on NXT outside of the ring (she makes a good heel). So instead of pushing her and convincing her to stay, they keep Kelly Kelly, who's done jack s**t in recent months, and (as we all know) can't wrestle.

If she goes, let's hope she joins TNA. She might stand a chance of getting some proper TV time there.

    • Here is how I fixed Windows 11 not booting after clean installation

      Useful to know, thanks!
    • Here is how I fixed Windows 11 not booting after clean installation

      By TarasBuria · Posted

      Here is how I fixed Windows 11 not booting after clean installation by Taras Buria Story time. A couple of weeks ago, I experienced a very odd thing with my computers. I was trying to reinstall Windows 11 on my primary device, and everything was going smoothly until the installer performed the first restart. After that, my computer entered the boot disk selection screen instead of continuing the setup process. Huh, that's odd, said I, and selected Windows Boot Manager only to see it fall back into the same screen right away. Then I tried booting from the USB drive with the same result—the PC kept returning to the boot device selection screen, and removing the drive would send my PC to UEFI, again, with no way to launch Windows 11. I fired up my spare laptop, which has been sitting unused for quite a while, to see if I am dealing with a defective USB drive. Nope, Windows 11 installed and started without issues. After trying another drive and checking all the possible settings in UEFI, I decided to try disabling Secure Boot. Lo and behold, Windows 11 started as it should have been in the first place, continued the setup process, and reached the initial setup screen. Victory! After I finished the setup and applied all updates, I re-enabled Secure Boot, and Windows 11 started without issues. Some time later, I tried reinstalling Windows 11 on my laptop only to experience similar issues, with UEFI claiming a Secure Boot violation. I checked whether the drive works on my main PC, and yes, it installed Windows 11 without errors. I scratched my head, went to UEFI, turned off Secure Boot, and installed Windows 11 without issues. After that, I enabled Secure Boot. Note: I used the official Media Creation Tool app for my USB drive. Also, UEFI was properly configured for Windows 11, including no Legacy Mode, a GPT-partitioned drive, and TPM and Secure Boot enabled. From my experience, if you are dealing with similar symptoms, I recommend two things: If you use old Windows 11 install media, create a new one with the latest Windows 11 release, especially if you know your PC already has the latest Secure Boot certificates. If you cannot create a new one, turn off Secure Boot, complete the installation, download all available updates, and then re-enable Secure Boot in UEFI. Note that you need to turn off Secure Boot after installing Windows 11. Otherwise, the installer won't run, claiming a hardware requirements mismatch. I believe the problem hides in Secure Boot certificates that expire this month. Microsoft is currently rolling out new certificates, and maybe a mismatch was causing these issues for both of my systems. I am out of my depth to make a definitive statement; this article is flagged as "Opinion," as I only share my experience and some tips on how to fix the problem. If some of you possess deeper knowledge and understanding of the situation, please share it in the comments. As for everyone else struggling with computers not booting after a clean install, the two steps above should get you out of the pickle.

      I gave the tool a chance the other day to make a USB. An hour later it was stuck at 0% downloaded. I downloaded the official ISO, downloaded Rufus, and made the USB myself in 15 min.
    • what other retro software do yall use

      By Nick H. · Posted

      <Moved to software discussion and support> I've got fond memories of Winamp. Changing the skins, the different visualisations etc. But now I just need a simple music player. MSN messenger would be another one, MSN Messenger Plus (I think?) offered so many different plugins. But again, it probably wouldn't work for me these days. And then there is miRC. i think it's still going these days, but lord i had fun with that back in the day. Now it's mostly stuff like Discord, WhatsApp group chats, Signal, Telegram... /me is showing his age...
