What do you guys think of the news about Paige being forced to retire now due to the injury from a week or so ago? I think its a pretty ###### situation all around for her, and I hope she can handle it to be honest. Such a crap hand dealt to her overall - maybe she'll be invited to stay around as a trainer or on-air talent for other things.

I refrained from mentioning it as it's still currently unverified, but yeah, rotten luck if it's true. It'd be surreal to see a wrestler younger than me forced into retirement already; I'm only 26 and she's 25. :/ Although technically she has been wrestling all her life; her mum wrestled a match while unknowingly seven month pregnant with her.

 

 

There is another retirement story that hasn't been officially confirmed, but does come from Dave Meltzer, and that's Mark Henry. Obviously not as surprising, since he hasn't wrestled since WrestleMania last year, but still, any excuse to post his fake retirement masterclass...

I'm not a wrestling fan ... however I saw her story on ESPN earlier today.  One would think that the WWE wouldn't script a kick to the back of her neck after her prior injury/surgery.  Very unfortunate for her and her fans.

It was probably something Paige and Sasha Banks agreed on, rather than the guys behind-the-scenes, either before the match or maybe even during it on-the-fly; it was at a live/non-televised show, so presumably the matches aren't as meticulously planned out as they would be on TV or PPV.

Welp, made it almost two whole weeks into 2018 before a "LOLTNA" moment.

Or maybe not.

^^ That's Don Callis, by the way; English colour commentator for NJPW, and now also EVP of Impact along with Scott D'Amore.

    • Classic Outlook vs New Outlook — Which one do you prefer and why?

      By tsupersonic · Posted

      When you're in enterprise IT environment, you're kinda forced into it...otherwise I'm not touching any mail client for personal use.  I can't stand New Outlook. It's complete trash - half the features I need in (Classic) Outlook are just missing in New Outlook. I haven't talked to a single person who actually likes the new client.

      I think it's cute that Apple is implementing their tools at precisely the same evolutionary level as other devices' tools. In other words, I see no innovation; it's "the same but different." "Hey Siri, help me write this document about shoes." Powered by Google. "Sure thing, while we're here, can I interest you on some Nike's? They're on sale at Target right now!"
