The latest PROGRESS show is available for download on their payloadz store - you can buy the full show in 1080p for $16 or individual matches for $3. I'd highly recommend the Mark Andrews vs Paul Robinson match if you want to see some great British jr. heavyweight wrestling.

I know, right? Dude is flat-out amazing in the ring and his heel persona has come a long way - I've been saying for a while that this guy's the future, I have no doubt he'll end up in WWE one day.

Hardly main evented. Yes, he was in the title matches but the storyline was trash. Not saying giving Bryan is going to fix shit. But if he wins the Rumble with a SERIOUS storyline, past 4 months can be forgiven. But we'll see. My only hope is they didn't want to waste good stories on c-tier ppv's.

Nah, I don't believe it. Meltzer does not have any connections. AJ wouldn't be subjected to those mean bullies unless it was a work for Total Divas.

Hey, what about Tama and Fale? They're both Tongan.
More like, "gaijins only".
Also, is this actual news, or just Karl Anderson working people on twitter? Because AJ Styles vs Kota Ibushi would be a match I'd like to see.

notice how Tama and Fale never are allowed to speak. Shame on that establishment.
Probably Anderson working people but I see Styles as needing it.
AJ could be great in NJPW, I always enjoy his actual matches. Suck the storyline out of it, leave it in the ring? A+ work. Also the portal to Outworld is closing and I will depart again.
You must be new to wrestling. The locker room has traditionally not been a place for sensitivity.
Is that supposed to be Lita in the first panel, I thought it was Edge cause the drawing is so shitty. Also why would AJ want Punk to call her Lita? Does that make Punk, Edge?

Ah well, it's probably for the best. There are some nefarious characters around these parts I wouldn't trust.Also, before you disappear into the aether, what did you make of that fucking AJ drama yesterday? Easily wins the award for "Most Tedious Backstage Drama of 2013".

CM Punk has a Neogaf tattoo in that comic. What does it mean?

Lita and Punk dated and if I remember correctly, Beth got jealous of Punk and Lita didn't she?

Did AJ do some more "is he hired or isn't he" shit again for TNA? Or are you referring to the petite AJ?
I feel bad for Styles as he can continue wrestling but his shelf life is limited. Dude works a style that wears you down, and he can't have too much time left, unfortunately.
AJ Lee and CM Punk bullshit is fucking BLARGHHHHHHH PLEASE PEOPLE LET IT GO NOBODY SHOULD CARE
Total Divas finale was off the fucking TANK though, goddamn Natty ready to ride with no underwear! CRAZY SHIT.
Oh no the portal is closing

Batista allegedly put up pictures from a diva's (possibly Micke James') nude shoot all over the locker room once.
And people in a workplace trading around a funny picture? Never heard of such a thing.
WrassleGAF shoutout right at the start.

That's not fair to Batista
I think she lost Diva of the Year because WATCH TOTAL DIVAS! NOW ON E!
Judging by Tumblr, female fans love the shit out of AJ.
She's a heel though, and the marks always vote for the faces regardless of the option. Want an example? THE MATCH OF THE YEAR IS JOHN CENA VS THE ROCK AT MANIA!
Ugh.
If you believe it was rigged ok. I'd like more reasons.
edit: Sure, mark voting could have been enough. Definitely underestimated.

Andre vs Hogan was the best match at Mania 3, not Steamboat/Savage.
Cena/Rock is the best match of the year this year, not Punk/Lesnar
matches that drew the most money = best
And Beth is now with Edge, this goes deeper than we can possibly imagine.

Allowing the Bella twins to enter the diva of the year contest as a single entity was bullshit. Maybe if they learned the fusion dance or whatever then I'd be okay with Nibrie Bella winning, but they don't have that power.
I'm tempted to give ROH a shot with Final Battle after not watching for a long time......

I used to think they were interchangable, but Brie is actually a nice girl in real life (maybe it's Bryan changing her, I don't know), while her sister is one of those shitty popular girls from back in high school everyone secretly hated.
So I just listened to this random dude ramble 10 minutes why the Bella deserves to win. Before you discredit him he took the time to bash Kofi as a mid card guy, so that deserves some respect right?
So if it come down simply to exposure, no doubt Bellas got a ton of it.
I like how he said AJ Lee pipebomb was a bomb only because the Bellas were on the receiving end of it. Of off anyone else it would have fallen on deaf hears.
Well maybe.

I'd change Bad News Barrett to be like Bad News Brown, since that's what I thought it was when I first heard of it.
Lancashire Sewer Rats, rename the Ghetto Blaster something like On the Dole
Edge and CM Punk need to exchange stats one day.
Problem to me, is they are only getting exposure "by default". Anyone put in the spot they are for Total Divas would get just as much, or even a lot more, given the Bellas are anti-entertainment and someone actually talented as the centerpiece of Total Divas would probably get a lot more over.

Eva Marie should have won Diva of the Year because that would have been god damn hilarious.
Oh it was brutal.
EDIT: Sorry, the match was so terrible that I just gave a review of the Edwards/Whitmer v. Lethal/Strong match (copied below) instead. Nothing happened in Outlaw v. ReDragon. Nothing. It made Main Event look like Wrestlemania. Outlaw Inc. blew up after the match because the crowd took a colossal shit on the whole thing. I assume in a worked-shoot manner: some poor fat guy had slightly-less-fat Eddie Kingston run up in his grill after the match. The guy in the Bruins hat looked ready to attack but he didn't seem to know fully if it was a work or not. Happened right below me.
Edwards/Whitmer v. Lethal/Strong: Crowd was so dead that I heard at least three people shout "AND THE CROWD GOES MILD", demonstrating the deadness of the crowd and the overuse of that joke. It was a bad shoot match with some of the annoying elements that Bootaay mentioned earlier (indie tag teams and the art of the no-sell) with no real memorable spots and overuse of the tag-team Kick to the Head + Then Do Your Move spot.
We spent most of that match trying to figure out why we were supposed to care about the match, discussing what WWE star would be the best for ROH from a booking standpoint (unanimous answer: Mark Henry as a monster... tho he might have to shoot attempt to crush a child in the ring to get heat), then a long discussion about Andre the Giant.
