During a Q&A at The Wrestling Geek Fest, which featured WZ personality Nick Hausman, WWE Hall of Famer Greg “The Hammer” Valentine had some very controversial things to say about women in professional wrestling.

You can check out the Q&A, via The Filsinger Podcast, at this link.

During the Q&A, Valentine talked WWE’s current product, and said he would do things very differently if he were in charge, namely put an end to the Divas division.

Valentine said women have no place pro wrestling because women don’t, and never have, drawn any money in the business. He added he would “send them all out to the strip bar and fire them.”

Valentine continued by saying women in wrestling are taking jobs from men who need to support their families, and that women are not supposed to be wrestlers or fighters. He said women belong in the kitchen washing dishes and doing all the cooking.

A photo of Valentine at the event, along with Nick Hausman, is pictured at up at the right.

 Greg Valentine can go suck a bag of ######.

According to several sources in WWE, the original plan for WWE’s “Divas Revolution” called for Charlotte to win the title from Nikki Bella almost immediately upon arrival, and for Charlotte, Sasha Banks and Becky Lynch to dominate the incumbents. But John Cena, acting on behalf of girlfriend Nikki Bella, went to Vince McMahon and had that squashed.

The result is the booking we are seeing now in the Divas Revolution on WWE TV, with Divas old and new trading wins, just like the men.

 that doesn't come as a surprise

One thing I forgot to mention from NXT TakeOver Brooklyn: the smattering of ###### in the crowd that tried to put a crimp on the night.

I was at the Barclay Center tonight and before that awesome intro by HHH he asked us TWICE to be dead silent during the intro to give the effect that he was alone in the arena before showing off the audience. He even went on to say backstage told him it wouldn't work but he trusted us. And then when the lights go out some ###### were yelling even though he just asked us in the best way he could to stay silent. Watching it on the network you could hear the bastards and it took away from the moment. This is why we can't have nice things.

 You want to know what really ###### me off during this. I was in the section where those jackasses were heckling during the moment of silence. And one them trying to be funny, chanted CHRIS BENOIT during it. Loud enough for Triple H to notice and say "That's not funny, be quiet".

These were also the guys saying WHAT? During the Dusty Tag Team Tournament announcement. The people around me shut them down but it just left a sour taste on an awesome night

And there were also a few fans who got kicked out just for trying to throw streamers before the main event, but X-Pac came to the rescue.

I wish WWE would embrace the streamers like ROH have done; they look bloody amazing when there's enough of them.

^^ Doesn't have to be that many, either.

I think Kevin Owens is a fan of them, too.

Wow, I knew the women in NXT were good and all, and some of them being on the main roster was awesome to see. But that NXT match was incredible. I never thought I'd see a woman's match that outdid almost any match that men have done in awhile. It's not because I think women can't wrestle obviously, but WWE is moronic when it comes to the "Divas" as we've seen. I sure hope that's a sign of quality to come for the women in WWE. And also, stop calling them Divas. Ugh.

And Brock was not let to be himself . When taker tapped out and then used a low blow to beat BROCK who had won already .:shiftyninja:
It was not the way that match should have ended. BROCK wins it or A draw.:shifty:
All the match proved was Undertaker is DONE. :/

I think they're trying to make Taker heel, for God knows what reason... I really doubt that people will ever boo Taker, no matter what. I was expecting an interference tonight, by Sting, to set up a match with him and Taker at WM, so I was really, really dissapointed by the way the match ended. Lesnar could've win by DQ because of Sting, and this way Taker wouldn't look like a ###### AND it would've been the start of their feud leading to WM. But noooo, leave it  to WWE to ###### things up for good...

I just finished SummerSlam and yeah and no I didn't like this event but didn't hate it.

1. Did not like the finish where Seth won, WTF does John Stewart have any right in wrestling other than a silly feud with Rollins...ruined what was actually a good match.

2. Amell was AMAZING he should just become a WWE Superstar now imo.

3. Lesnar vs Taker was a shambles, I was convinced Taker looked in shape that wasn't the truth. That ending as well...he ended Lesnar's streak with BS

4. PLEASE PUSH KEVIN OWENS AND CESARO

    • Windows 11's big performance boost is finally available for all

      By ikjadoon · Posted

      Why should simply opening the Action Center ... require any significant amount of CPU cycles? Too many are ignoring the elephant in the room: today's CPUs may have similar clock frequencies to CPUs from a decade ago (~4 to 5 GHz), but they run with far higher performance per clock, even on the smallest E-cores. The Action Center is a static, minor desktop element. It ought to open instantly on any CPU made in the past 2.5 decades at even low clocks. Opening a program? Boost away. Unzipping a file? Boost to your heart's content. Right-clicking the notification area? This should be an ultra-efficient, low-impact event that opens instantly. Compare today's UI elements to Windows 7 UI elements. Today's UI elements hardly do anything more substantial or important or critical, yet now require modern-day processors to jump half a GHz to reduce their latency.

      This is not an option lmao: it is part of the KB5094126 update, pushed to all users. There is no GUI to configure it. Reading the article should be required for commenting.

      Can you recommend me a good Pixel 7 on eBay? Because some are saying Gen 1, and I don't think that's what I want, right?

      Close, but it is for any application starting, not just during boot time. In fact, it probably will not improve boot time at all because during a boot, the CPU is already boosting, so a pre-boost wouldn't change anything. I agree that it isn't exciting (especially considering every other OS already does it), but it is a good thing, even if they are just playing catch up.

      Any so called performance increase will be in milliseconds, which nobody will actually notice in real world usage.
