This Jericho article is like a game of telephone.

"However, as they say, all good things must come to an end, and RingSideNews.com are reporting that Jericho’s current WWE run is set to end following the Hell in a Cell pay-per-view."

If you click on their link for Ringsidenews, it says

"This match may be one of Jericho’s last for the company again, as he is slated to leave the company to record his Fozzy album."

"May" be "one of his last" which sounds like speculation.
 
Wow. I am bummed Jericho is leaving again. Do they expedite JeriKO by having Jericho turn on him to set up a career match at HiaC and have Rollins face HHH..or....IDK

So I canceled my WWE 2k17 NXT Edition pre-order!

And got the WWE 2k17 Digital Deluxe Edition with Season Pass. I'll use that season pass a hell of a lot more than I will a Finn Balor statue.
 
Anyone watching any wrasslin tonight?

There's the ROH PPV ($35, lol), CMLL Arena Mexico on youtube and FIP All Or Nothing 2016 over on WWNLive for $10;

Its a good thing they copyrighted those names.

No doubt Vince was just thinking of giving Kevin Steen the Fred Yehi ring name

Wait. Mahonay, where do you live? I always thought you were in the UK for some reason. Probably because you and Browny were running for co-president of the world that one time.

Bushwick is pretty hoppin' with hipsters. Not so overrun yet in the section I'm in, right off the J train closer to Bed-Sty. Lots of good people and awesome parties.
Nope it's still intact. Crown Heights is next brother.

Makes sense. Crown Heights had the early signs when I did on site visits for work back in 2013.

Brownsville and then East New York and then they'll have gentrified from coast to coast.
Yep, lots of people moving over to Crown Heights lately.

So did you always have fun with 2K games or have they been getting better over the years to you.

The last I played was WWE '13 and i hated it because everyone played the same. But I'm looking at 2K17 and I'm tempted.

I've always had fun with it, Universe and My Career mode keep me coming back often.
 
I'm usually pretty OK with whatever dumb shit a crowd chants, but the EVOLVE lot doing "How High? YEHI!" for Fred Yehi is a fucking abomination and further proves my point that American chants are shiiiiiiiit.
