New details are coming in regarding the backstage incident that led to Alberto Del Rio being released from WWE.

 

WWE noted that Del Rio was abruptly let go "due to unprofessional conduct and an altercation with an employee." Shortly afterwards, reports came out that Del Rio slapped a member of WWE's social media team.

 

According to f4wonline.com, the story going around this morning is that the whole thing started when somebody in catering (a staff member) asked WWE's Social Media Manager to clean off his plate. The social media manager allegedly responded, "That's Del Rio's job."

Word got back to Del Rio, who confronted the WWE employee. The Social Media Manager refused to apologize and smirked at Del Rio, which led to him getting slapped across the face.

 

It's believed that Del Rio has a 90-day no-compete clause that would prevent him from working for TNA or Mexico's AAA promotion.

 

Dave Meltzer noted that TNA is already trying to get in touch with Del Rio, asking around for his phone number.

 

Apparently, TNA already wants to make Del Rio the next TNA World Champion. "Next TNA champion is not a joke," Meltzer said. "Dead serious."

If that story is even remotely true. I don't blame Del Rio one bit for slapping the ###### out of the guy who said that about him. In the biz, respect is super important, and that guy showed zero respect for Del Rio, so good on him if that's what happened. Plus, all he did was slap the guy, others have done far worse and still work in WWE lol

 

Also, the bottom part of that story reads like one of those kayfabe stories :D (haven't gone to the link so I have no idea if this rajah.com site is like that)

You know what: I don't care. I don't care what anybody says. Nobody who has watched the past 3 NYC TNA shows can say that WWE is currently better. Really enjoyed the new TNA in the most recent shows. Less about the bad acting, All about the wrestling.

Literally anybody who gives a sh*t about professional wrestling watch this weeks and the last two weeks TNA and then just try and say that's not better than anything else out there at the mo...

Yeah, I wouldn't blame ADR either; what that guy said (if true) comes off as racist.

 

Really beginning to think iTS a work

Yeah, I agree now after seeing those tweets; definitely not their usual protocol.

In the biggest non-story of the week, a video has surfaced online of the woman stalking Randy Orton getting her picture taken with him on Monday afternoon outside of a gym in Texas.

It all began on Monday when Orton Tweeted out a photo with a fan with this inscription:

?Look @kimklro I met the Latino Ms. Piggy today at the gym. I wish you were there to have a good laugh with me! #MsPig"

Orton was called into a meeting with WWE officials backstage at Raw and later apologized. This was after the Tweet/photo had gained mainstream attention on popular celebrity gossip blog TMZ.com.

Orton explained the female fan had been stalking and harassing his significant other.

Now that you?re caught up, you can watch a video of someone recording the stalking fan as she obtained the photo in question:

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

      By FunkyMike · Posted

      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...
