Ratings discussions are the worst discussions

Look at that. Even CM Punk is a ratings killer.
This is what you get Vince if you don't put Brodus back on TV!
What are the chances the reason we're not seeing Brodus has nothing to do with his in ring ability but due to him botching the pants rip spot during his entrance?
Alternate:
What are the chances the reason we're not seeing Brodus has nothing to do with his in ring ability but simply because they ran out of colors for his jumpsuit?

Makes sense to me.

Will miss the funkettes....
I remember a few years back when Foley left the WWE after being on commentary for a bit, he said that Vince would be yelling on the headset for Foley to say his scripted lines. He would growl in that typical Vince style and say something like "SAYYYYY IT DAMMMMMN IT". I imagine him doing that during Clay's last match as well.

I live 15 min from Met Life stadium! I still hope they go to the Garden for wm30 though...That would be 3 straight manias for me... Jersey has disgusting weather in march/april though.

Would let Tony Parker sleep with his wife
seeeeeeeee I told you Punk was overrated. He's not fighting "the man" so nobody cares. Yeah it's not his fault, but he's really not doing anything to help. That best wrestler in the world crap doesn't work when people are brainwashed into thinking the talent aren't wrestlers but sports entertainers.
He needs a new thing to latch on to. The crowd has opened their eyes and see that catch as catch can wrestling is boring on tv and better for house shows...errrr LIVE EVENTS that people pay $50 to be entertained with WRESTLING.
WCW put great wrestling on it's tv and look where that got em.

Is he on drugs? I doubt it.
Is he no longer that driven by wrestling? Maybe.
Seriously, I haven't seen a guy regress like this in a long time--in the ring, on the mic, everywhere... He was slow as fuck with no impact at all on Monday.
The only time he seems to bring it is on the talk shows. That makes me think maybe he just doesn't want to be a wrestler anymore.

That was awesome, as usual, loved it when the gun went off. Briscoes and Steen are seriously the best promo guys in ROH at present.
Also, they're bringing back BJ Whitmer? I might be in the minority, but I'm pretty excited by the prospect - BJ was always one of the more underrated ROH wrestlers imo, even if he did have the personality and charisma of a brick wall.
He's probably burning out. He spent so much time over the past few years doing everything for the WWE by appearing on every damn thing you could ask for. He's probably also frustrated by where he is, considering he was main eventing WM last year. He just needs a break.
Here is the top merchandise sellers in the WWE:
Also anyone watching Ring Ka King because it had another insane Scott Steiner promo:

Plus the Bollywood Boys have a hilarious theme and entrance:

I've come to the conclusion I can probably avoid watching Impact and just watch TNA PPVs without suffering (figuratively speaking).

I assure you we're all quite sane, unlike those fruity pebble nutjobs with Cena avatars.
I bet you're counting down the days until your avatar based freedom
That's been my policy for years now, and it works just fine.
For anyone else interested in the current state of Mania tickets:
Ticketmaster is near gone. They just added sections 7 and 49 near the ramp. The Facebook flag is where I am sitting.
There are still 8,000 + tickets left on stubhub.
There still could be tons more left. Sections 406-450 weren't opened up till two weeks ago.
Edit: Risers 49 and 7 are brand new as well. I still have no idea why Risers 45 and 46 are $492. That makes absolutely no sense.

Vince could bring back Brodus for one last appearance before FE'ing him, a la John Morrison. Wait until Mark Henry is fully healthy again and then have Brodus bump into him and starts chatting him up with all the nonsense jive talk, which pisses Henry off. Then, set up the match for later based on that confrontation. Have the match go like a normal Brodus squash match until it comes time for Brodus's finisher, and then have Henry catch him during the cross-body and deliver a World's Strongest Slam. Brodus goes from squasher to squashed in one match and then disappears forever.

I'm expecting the ringside tickets to FINALLY be opened up in the next 2-3 weeks. No way they're sold out when only 218 ringside tickets are listed on Stubhub because I know a good percentage of those tickets are brokers selling seats they don't even have yet.

For good reason. As much crap as we give Mr. H's, that segment was easily the best part of Raw.
Did you not see the Friend Zoning.

Sorry, Zack Ryder owned that show.
If being a Kane fan makes me insane, then show me the way to the ward.

Wrestlemania 29 in NYC.
There will be meet ups, piledrivers, and many instagram photos.
I will be planning to take my brother.

Wrestlemania 30 should be at MSG... Wrestling is broken if that does not happen

HHH gained alot of viewers, because he put himself in the top of the hour segment, which always gains viewers. Anything would gain in that quarter hour.

Even though he said "funky chicken".
But was it a strong gain? That is the question.

A ton of Mania ringside is tied up in travel packages. Lots of international people make an annual trip out of it. I actually don't expect a lot of those on the resale market.
