Your mission:
To save wrestling, you must choose a billionaire to start a promotion which can rival the WWE and introduce some much needed competition to the industry.
You can select any billionaire in the world but bear in mind where they are from, their history, how much they know about the industry, how much they would be willing to spend and what decisions they would make.

Mark Cuckerberg.
Make a Diva heavy, Indy male promotion. We steal all the talent from WWE, make Sasha our champ, allow Dbry to wrestle and be our champ.
Owens will be our tv champ.
WWE is forced to hire back ryback, mason ryan, ec3, tons of alpha muscle dudes.
WWE starts to gain hype again and puts Cuckerburg Promotions out of business- saving wrestling once and for all.
>>1886972
Cherry on the cake: Cuckerberg's promotion is called "ECW".
Extremely Cuckolded Wrestling
George Lucas.
I feel like he'd make something pretty crazy and wouldn't care much about how much it costs.
This was one of the greatest promos of all time
It was and smarks will cry about this. They'll go on to say how Owens is so over and how Neville needs a push.
Goldberg is THE drawer of dimes. Smarks are on suicide watch because their indie darling can't cut a promo and they never put one ass in a seat.
>>1886938
Why do they love Neville? He's a promo nightmare, nobody can stand the Geordie accent, its the worst in England after the Scouse accent.

Where were you when Carmella completely BTFO'd Nikki 'Need-Freak' Bella?
>>1886046
I was actually surprised with both of their promos
They weren't killing it but they were better than any shit I've seen from RAM's bitches

>terrible heel

Unsalvageable. Release him immediately.
>>1877537
You forgot
> unsafe botchmachine
Release him before he kills someone like goldberg or jerigoat
>>1877537
I remember thinking he'd be a good face because of his ring-work.
>slowed noticeably since injury
>promos somehow even worse
>still spends most of his time on-screen cutting them
Fucking garbage
He's a fucking joke. 0 intensity in anything he does

WHAT TO LOOK FOR IN A MARTIAL ARTS GYM:
•Physically conditioned, fit participants
•Trainer with certified professional record and a training history with at least one athlete who competes successfully
•Sparring, "aliveness" in training
•At least one participant competes at amateur or professional level
•Physical conditioning part of training
WHAT TO BE WARY OF:
•Fat, physically subpar students and instructor
•Graduation fees (e.g. "pay $200 and advance to next belt extra quick!")
•No proven athletes training there
•No sparring, moves shown are choreographed (e.g. "the attacker does this, then I do this, then you do this...")
•Cult-like atmosphere
•No physical conditioning

I train aikido, I'm a fat fuck, ask me anything.
What do you guys think of this Texas Method template to supplement my Judo? I want to get some strength ready for a competition in January. I'm thinking of swapping out the cleans for powercleans again.
So who is my VP going to be?

I'm new to wrestling and to /asp/. What were some of the key points of the Monday Night Wars?
Triple H winning the title
DX invading WCW with a tank was the turning point for WWF
>>1889978
Virgil joined the nWo (as Vincent)
Cody Rhodes vs Eddie Edwards for the World Heavyweight Championship.
Moose vs Lashley for Number 1 Contender-ship.
The Hardys vs The Tribunal for the tag team championship
God that promo by Cody Rhodes
eddie can't cut a promo for shit
>>1889934
Neither can Lashley
So I went to the WWE Shop and looked in the male shirts for these various people. I opened all the shirts from these divas that had a 5xl size to see which one had the fattest fags. Why are sasha fags so fat? I'm pretty sure out of all of these women that sasha is also the only one to have more than one shirt that has a 5xl size for men.
>becketty has the least reviews
and then there's naomi which is just embarassment
>le dance girl
kek
>166 reviews
Based SashA+ outselling everyone else effortlessly. /asp/ fatties about to pull the trigger
>>1889772
That's because she's le gamur gurl that likes anime. I assume that's one of the reasons she attracts 5XL fans.
Roughly speaking "We love throwing money down the drain"
Only if those rumors are true though. It gets harder each time to believe that there's anyone left who actually wants to bankroll the financial black hole that is TNA
>>1889562
>>1889562
So I'm guessing dixies daddy finally caved in and decided to bail her out. Because I cannot imangine a 3rd party possibly being interested in TNA.
