According to WZ Radio regular Ryan Satin of ProWrestlingSheet.com, former WWE NXT star Solomon Crowe, known on the indy scene as Sami Callihan, has signed a deal to appear on season three of Lucha Underground.

 

Multiple sources say Sami began negotiations to join the roster not long after appearing in a dark match during a season 2 taping, and he’s expected to debut at the Temple this weekend.

 

Callihan was released from WWE NXT last year.

Speaking of Lucha Underground, tonight's episode is Aztec Warfare 2 (and Rey Mysterio makes his debut)!

Crap.  I missed that last night.

TNA's announced five new signings: Jesse Guilmette (Pepper Parks), Laura Dennis (Cherry Bomb), Marshe Rockett (Mr. M80) Thomas LaRuffa and Mikael Viege (Sylvester Lefort and Marcus Louis from NXT).

Welp, TNA's gone and ######ed up again.

It saddens me to announce that TNA have issued the withdrawal of EC3/Ethan Carter from our April 3rd PCW show. The other international talent booked being Ken Anderson, Jade, Eddie Kingston, Cedric Alexander are all still confirmed to appear.

 

WrestleMania weekend is the hardest time of the year to secure a replacement talent but I have worked hard to secure somebody and subject to him finding his passport we may have another guest from the USA.

 

I did reach out to TNA management but was told ''Unfortunately nothing can be done. This is a network commitment and something he had no control over''.

 

Considering TNA was publicly vocal about not being happy when AJ Styles pulled out of an agreed deal with them, it does seem double standards to me that the company would ask talent to back out of a deal that has been in place for many weeks. I have lost out financially having paid for an extensive promotional campaign with EC3 clearly front and centre promoting his appearance but most of all I feel for fans who have used their hard earned money and booked travel to see/meet EC3. We have gone above and beyond to try source a replacement in tough times for those fans but it is a shame that when asked for assistance TNA told us ''nothing can be done''.

 

I will in future be thinking twice about using TNA talent to avoid repeat scenarios as even WWE respect that when a date is agreed it is agreed and do not try to pull talent from it. I try give my fans more than value for money and will continue to do so but even though I do take full responsibility for the change in the lineup, you know I will always be honest with you all.

 

The show will still be amazing and tickets are available from www.prestoncitywrestling.com

They better not pull Drew Galloway from next month's PWA show; he's the main reason I'm going.

So wait, they had Shane and Undertaker fight (even for one move) on RAW before WM? Yeesh.

Yep, and for god only knows why, we got "treated" to two Authority promos, both of which ended in HHH and reigns brawling (and one of them ended the show).

Meh. I mean, I think I'd watch WM just for that match alone but come on WWE. They only did this because the WM is so weak compared to past years (which isn't their fault of course). But the Reigns thing boggles my mind. Is Vince really that blind, or that gleefully arrogant to let him win at WM when literally EVERYONE hates Reigns right now? Probably both.

Apparently, they expected Eva Marie to get a babyface reaction last night, so they (or at least Vince) are just completely delusional.

I had a weird idea about the HHH/Reigns fight- Let HHH win, then "retire" with the belt.  That way, tournament for the new top 2 contenders to battle for it at another PPV.  Or, Shane wins, strips HHH of the belt (HHH retains via DQ or something).  Then, something else to figure out who gets the belt.

But, this being WWE, that would NEVER happen. 

 

Thoughts?

They wouldn't do a HHH retiring with the belt story, that's to much even for them (maybe.....?!). Shane isn't going to win, and even if he does win, and HHH does win I doubt they would strip him of the belt. They would have to have a reason other than "I hate you, prick" lol Still, either of those options you came up with are still better than whatever dreck WWE will give us this weekend.

Yeah, I saw Meltzer say that. Assuming it's true, they really are just delusional. They were in Brooklyn, FFS! Brooklyn hosted an NXT TakeOver event last year that had one of the best matches of the year in Bayley vs. Sasha Banks (oh yeah, they were also chanting "We want Sasha!" throughout Charlotte vs. Becky Lynch on Raw last night); they have standards! What Meltzer also said was that they reckoned behind-the-scenes that all the booing Eva Marie got in NXT would stay in NXT...

    • Hello, It would appear so, according to https://finance.yahoo.com/news/how-to-hide-your-home-on-google-maps-apple-maps-204146687.html. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky      
    • Hello, The Nvidia Founders Edition 3080 video card is approximately six years old, correct? Have you looked into whether replacement fans are available for it? Perhaps replacing those will improve cooling, especially when combined with cleaning the card's heatsink and replacing the thermal interface materials. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky  
    • Hello, While ~104 GB of space may seem generous (at least compared to other e-readers which have 8-32GB), I feel at this price point the device should have a Micro SDXC card slot for expansion, particularly if it allows audio books to be installed and played. I hope to see more reviews of 6" phone-sized e-readers on Neowin in the future. It will be interesting to see how they compare. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky
    • Sandboxie Plus 1.17.8 / Classic 5.72.8 by Razvan Serea Run programs in a sandbox to prevent malware from making permanent changes to your PC. Sandboxie allows you to run your browser, or any other program, so that all changes that result from the usage are kept in a sandbox environment, which can then be deleted later. Sandboxie is a sandbox-based isolation software for 32- and 64-bit Windows NT-based operating systems. It is being developed by David Xanatos since it became open source, before that it was developed by Sophos (which acquired it from Invincea, which acquired it earlier from the original author Ronen Tzur). It creates a sandbox-like isolated operating environment in which applications can be run or installed without permanently modifying the local or mapped drive. An isolated virtual environment allows controlled testing of untrusted programs and web surfing. Sandboxie is available in two flavors Plus and Classic. Both have the same core components, this means they have the same level of security and compatibility. What's different is the user interface the Plus build has a modern Qt based UI which supports all new features that have been added since the project went open source. The Classic build has the old no longer developed MFC based UI, hence it lacks support for modern features, these features can however still be used when manually configured in the Sandboxie.ini. Sandboxie Plus 1.17.8 / Classic 5.72.8 release notes: Added added DisableCustomTitleOpt=[process,][y|n] to allow [#] sandboxie title markers on custom-titlebar windows (Delphi VCL, Qt, Electron) that were previously skipped to prevent DWM repaint CPU loops #5387 Changed updated bundled ImDisk driver to 3.0.2 #5419 Fixed fix Suppress logs for expected non-user SIDs #5422 SbieSvc.exe: SBIE2218/2219 error when run program as administrator #5417 fixed explorer.exe crashes in Application Compartment when Huorong Security is installed #5423 Download: Sandboxie Plus (64-bit) | 23.5 MB (Open Source) Download: Sandboxie Classic (64-bit) | 3.0 MB Links: Sandboxie Website | GitHub | ARM64 | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
    • Hello, Christian Maas' XVI32 is a nice (and very small) hex editor. Speaking of hex editors, many years ago a colleague and I who both worked at Tribal Voice managed to edit a copy of the company's PowWow instant messaging client to make it behave better now that all of its lookup servers and other server-side tech was gone.  The program didn't support NAT (RFC-3022 was introduced in January 2001, the same time Tribal Voice was shuttered), but it still worked okay if you manually set up port-forwarding on your router.  The server at http://powwow.jazy.net/ hosts a copy (usual warnings about downloading and running untrusted code from random internet servers apply). I occasionally use some tools like Funduc Software's Search and Replace and Application Mover when I need to make mass-edits to text-based files or move programs with a hard-coded installation directories, respectively.  When I need to figure out the exact LCD panel inside of a laptop, EnTech Taiwan's Monitor Asset Manager is my go-to tool for that purpose. JD Design's website (now hosted on github.io) has a number of interesting freeware and shareware utilities.  I used to use their TouchPro utility to set the file timestamps on software I was mastering to match its version number (e.g., version 3.00 of a program had all of its files dates set to 3:00AM, and so forth). Karenware has a number of interesting freeware utilities, too. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky
