Re: WWE Off-Topic

Peacock has the rights until 2026 so I'd say WM43 could be the likeliest one. First US Netflix Wrestlemania and they do it in London

You would be correct, this article confirms that it is likely going to be Wrestlemania 43 in London. Nick Khan also said talks are in place with another city for 2026.

Re: WWE Off-Topic

Triple H has just confirmed the location and date for Survivor Series. I'll be honest, I saw Vancouver and thought it was Vancouver, WA. It's not Wrestlemania but Vancouver is getting Survivor Series on Saturday November 30th at the Rogers Arena.

I really thought it would be Montreal. HHH did hint at a PLE in Canada later which made me think Montreal for Survivor Series but guess I wasn't too far off.

They better be trying to get Jey Uso over the border now.

I think Jey is fine, but if I recall there are some actual issues with Jacob Fatu where WWE had to use an attorney to get him across the border for Money In The Bank. Jey & Jimmy I think are both fine now as long as they don't get anymore DUIs or arrests, but I believe Jacob is the only one who might give WWE trouble in terms of him competing outside of the US.

Jacob Henry, the son of WWE Hall of Famer Mark Henry has signed with WWE. Guessing Mark is going to be getting that Legends contract as well at some point.

Re: WWE Off-Topic

Just got around to seeing the kickoff show.

Cole announcing McAfee/Tessitore duo on Raw starting in September and Cole joins Graves/Wade on SD.

I would've rather Joe join Graves/Wade instead of Cole. McAfee/Cole duo is one of the more entertaining commentary duos we've ever had.

Pat is heading back to GameDay soon. I do wonder what Wade Barrett does next, though.

Does this current contract impact that too? Thought he only came back because they were able to work out a long term deal for him to make his schedule work?

If Pats going though, even more reason Tessitore should've been on SD. Get familiarity with Graves or Wade sooner than work with Pat who might be gone soon too.

You know. Pure speculation on my part, and my bad! Lol.


I don't think anyone knows exactly what is happening, but my thought is Tessitore and Barrett on Raw with Graves and Cole on Smackdown.

He recently announced he's returning to college gameday and that announcement happened just over a week ago, so that decision one way or another definitely could've impacted the Tessitore announcement.

College Gameday has him working Saturday, I'd hope it doesn't impact a Monday night job compared to how it impacted SD on a Friday night.

Brock was nothing notable in AEW, but perhaps he'll at least get a tryout or shot in the PC? Lexis King has been better than he was in AEW, worth a shot seeing if they have anything with Brock.

Re: WWE Off-Topic

Along with the MCMG rumors, also sounds like we could see another team WWE bound

Spoiler

Lucha Bros

Will be interesting to see if WWE can transition them into the WWE style without them just being another lucha tag team.

Mexico should definitely get a PLE one day too. Lucha Bros, Mysterio, Andrade, Santos, Dragon Lee among others. Rey alone would obviously be a big enough draw.

Despite the lack of tag division booking, it is interesting to see them want to sign more tag teams, especially older ones like MCMG and Lucha Bros (Fenix is 33 but Penta is 39)

On paper this should be one of the more stacked Tag divisions they've ever had, but on tv you don't see it.

Makes sense for everyone involved. They have felt extremely tired and played out in AEW for a while. Bringing their routine to a (somewhat) new audience might help. But they will for sure have to limit their style.

WWE 2K25 DLC keeps getting potentially better by every signing.
