Guess it's time for predictions for "Night of Champions (Except the Intercontinental Title, as We Don't Give a Flying F**k About That Anymore)"...

 

Night of Jobbers: The Prime Time Players (Darren Young and Titus O'Neil) vs. Tons of Funk (Brodus Clay and Tensai) vs. The Usos (Jimmy & Jey Uso) vs. 3MB (any pairing of Heath Slater, Drew McIntyre, or Jinder Mahal) vs. The Real Americans (Jack Swagger and Antonio Cesaro) (with Zeb Colter) - Tag Team Turmoil match for a WWE Tag Team Championship match later in the night.
Alberto Del Rio © vs. Rob Van Dam - Singles match for the World Heavyweight Championship - Two scenarios I can think of for this match: Ricardo screws RVD and reveals it was a trick all along, or RVD actually wins, but then Damien Sandow cashes in. I'm going with the former.
The Shield (Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns) © vs. Tag Team Turmoil winners - Tag Team match for the WWE Tag Team Championship
CM Punk vs. Curtis Axel and Paul Heyman -  Elimination Handicap match. If Paul Heyman does not compete, he will be fired.
Dean Ambrose © vs. Dolph Ziggler - Singles match for the United States Championship
AJ Lee © vs. Natalya vs. Brie Bella vs. Naomi - Fatal Four-Way match for the WWE Divas Championship
Randy Orton © vs. Daniel Bryan - Singles match for the WWE Championship - Best for business.  :whistle: 

JR did a pretty good interview for Wrestle Talk TV; just saw the second half of it on tonight's episode. If anyone fancies watching it...

 

Skip to 12:40

 

Skip to 13:32

 

Oh, and before anyone says, the full episodes are blocked here in the UK (they prefer we watch it on Challenge, as it actually counts towards their ratings then and helps to secure the show; it's in its third series now), but you can get around it with ProxTube (as if you miss the original 11pm broadcast, you'll have to stay up until like 2am to see the repeat). ;)

not a bad ppv, although it did have some boring bits.

 

Daniel Bryan is the WWE champion

5 for 7 .. not bad. Although I guess it's really 5 for 8, since Curtis Axel did have to defend earlier on against Kofi

  • Like 1

ADR's still champion

Don't celebrate until you see RAW. Notice the fast count Scott Armstrong made on Bryan's pin? The announcers didn't even acknowledge it, but it was pretty obvious; it's probably gonna be brought up tonight, and I bet they use that as an excuse to strip Bryan of the title, then leave it vacant until Battleground and have them face off for it again.

Yeah I noticed that, I looked at my friend and said you see that right? and he was like yeah and then nothing happened so I celebrated for a night ;)

WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross will be appearing on today's edition of "The MMA Hour" hosted by Ariel Helwani. The official description for the show, which can be heard at MMAFighting.com, reads:

Legendary pro wrestling broadcaster Jim Ross will discuss his departure from WWE and aspirations to work in the MMA world.

seven year rule?

It's a term Jim Cornette coined; a kind of unwritten law of wrestling that says after seven years, enough time has passed where a writer can reuse a gimmick or storyline without most of the fans noticing. Obviously, that was before we all had the internet. :p

 

A perfect example...

2003 and 2010.

According to ProWrestling.net, as of today former TNA Knockout's Champion Mickie James is a free agent, as her contract with TNA Wrestling has officially expired.

James dropped the title to ODB at last week's Impact Wrestling television taping

, and according to the report, will not be signing a new deal with TNA. 

 

Mickie James actually got her start at TNA in 2002, before signing with OVW and making her WWE debut in 2005, in a high profile feud with WWE Hall of Famer Trish Stratus. She came back to TNA in 2010, becoming the only wrestler in history to hold the TNA Knockouts, WWE Divas and WWE Women's titles. 

 

She will be appearing for Wrestling Spectacular in New Jersey on September 21st, signing autographs and working a match with former TNA Knockout Angelina Love. Former WWE Diva Candice Michelle will be acting as the special guest referee for the match. For more information on the event, featuring former Divas like Maria Kanellis, Kelly Kelly, Katie Lee Burchill, and more visit WrestlingSpectacular.com

Well, there goes another knockout. There's only five left in TNA now. :/

    • If it ain't broke, don't fix it. One Commander Free also available in the Store has been my goto Files Manager for years. It does what I need at a more than reasonable speed. I do occasionally use Files Explorer just because it is there and does what I need without any problems when I use it.
    • I think you missed his point. He wasn't saying that cloud storage isn't possible on GNU/Linux, clearly it is. He was pointing out that you are commenting about your dislike of Windows on an article about OneDrive (not Windows) for Mac (also not Windows). Its about as off topic as coming to an article about Sony improving something on the PlayStation and saying that you hate Sony TVs and prefer LG.
    • Nvidia's GeForce NOW summer sale drops prices for Ultimate and Premium memberships by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Nvidia has a fresh update for GeForce NOW subscribers today, bringing in more games to add to its ever-growing supported titles list. At the same time, the company announced the kick-off for its summer sale for the streaming subscription service, dropping the prices for both its premium packages for anyone looking to upgrade or join. The offer is for the 12-month membership options that the company offers. This drops the 12-month Performance membership from $99.99 to $64.99, saving members $35. Next, the 12-month Ultimate membership is currently going for $129.99, dropping prices by $70 from the original $199.99. "The Performance membership delivers smooth, high-quality cloud gaming across devices, with streaming up to 1080p at 60 frames per second (fps) and access to RTX-powered servers for supported games," says Nvidia, describing its tiers. "The Ultimate membership steps things up with RTX 4080‑ or 5080‑class performance in the cloud, supporting up to 4K and beyond on ultrawide displays, up to 120 fps, and advanced features like ray tracing, NVIDIA DLSS and NVIDIA Reflex for a more responsive, visually rich experience." With the sales out of the way, here are the games joining GeForce NOW's supported list this week: NBA THE RUN (New release on Steam, available on June 9) Witchspire (New release on Steam, available on June 10) SpaceCraft (New release on Steam, available on June 11) Duet Night Abyss (Launcher) DOOM Eternal (Epic Games Store) The Elder Scrolls Online (Xbox, available on Game Pass) Farever (Steam) World of Tanks: HEAT (Wargaming) Nvidia plans to add support for a bunch of more games during the rest of June. Find the full announcement from last week over here. Keep in mind that, unlike subscription services like Game Pass or EA Play, a copy of a game must be owned by the GeForce NOW member (or at least have a license via PC Game Pass) to start playing via Nvidia's cloud servers. There is also a limit to how many hours subscribers can use the service per month.
    • It's actually shocking how logs filling disks has been a constant issue going back for decades, yet we see very little improvement over the years. Even in the server world, its actually shockingly common for a server to either go totally down, or have a critical alert raised due to logs filling disks.
    • YouTube has finally brought back its DMs feature, but only in these countries by David Uzondu Late last year, YouTube started testing a "new" way to share videos directly with friends, without having to leave the app. Now, the video giant has announced that is now rolling out a revamped direct messaging inbox, which lets you share videos, Shorts, and live streams and have conversations about them, directly on YouTube. The platform limits this feature to 18+ users who are signed in to a verified channel and use the latest mobile app version. Direct messaging on YouTube first became a thing back in 2017 inside the mobile app (later renamed to "Messages"), where users could chat one-on-one and share clips directly, but all that came to an end on September 18, 2019, when Google decided to shut it down after giving users a month to download a .zip file archive of their past chats. No one really knows why YouTube killed the feature, but users were encouraged to migrate to the public Comments section, on Community tab posts, and via YouTube Stories. The previous incarnation suffered from moderation challenges, prompting Google to implement stricter safety guidelines and age verifications for this new iteration. Here's a list of the countries where the re-launched feature is currently available, though note that Brand Accounts do not have access to it, at least for now: Countries American Samoa Austria Belgium Brazil Bulgaria Croatia Cyprus Czech Republic Denmark Estonia Finland France Germany Greece Guam Hungary Iceland Ireland Italy Latvia Liechtenstein Lithuania Luxembourg Malta Netherlands Northern Mariana Islands Norway Poland Portugal Puerto Rico Romania Singapore Slovakia Slovenia Spain Sweden Switzerland U.S. Virgin Islands United Kingdom United States Before you can use the feature, you first have to send an invite link to your contact. Invite links expire exactly seven days after you create them. If the person on the other end accepts the invite, you can exchange videos directly and text back and forth inside the app. To delete a message, just long-press on the message and tap unsend to remove it for both users. You can also delete entire conversations by long-pressing the thread and selecting delete, but the other person will continue to see the chat history on their end. To make sure everything remains safe, YouTube monitors these messages to ensure they follow Community Guidelines.
