The problem is, the indies could be a great farm system for WWE and TNA, but the talent doesn't get used properly. Stars of the indies that go to TNA end up being being booked in a completely reeruned fashion (mainly look at Samoa Joe's recent run). As for WWE, Vince does not like performers that he did not create, so he re-names these guys (CM Punk being an exception to the rule) and gives them characters they weren't used to portraying. And while many of the wrestlers in the indies are great overall performers (Danielson, Aries, Quackenbush, etc.), they aren't big lumbering jerkoffs, so Vince doesn't think they will draw. |

Yeah got to admit I really respected steamboat back in the day. But after hearing the story about a young wrestler on the plane I thought to myself oh god it's HHH again. I lost a little respect for him. When I saw that kolo b ware got in I thought man he really must have kissed vinces a@@ to get in. I like HHH but it does look like everyone kisses his butt.

I know it's fake but the politics are real and HHH appears to be great at it.

Did you guys see that the HOF speeches were all written by WWE, and that they played music to get Bill Watts off the stage after he went completely off-script? Jesus Christ. Classy.
So that explains Steamboat's HHH plane story, CA. Shut the **** up, Donny! You're out of your element!

Just saw the latest ROH videowire, here it is:
Right at the very end, they have a preview of Joey Ryan coming into ROH. They are really starting to stockpile talent right now. In the past several months, they have added: D Lo Brown Eddie Kingston Joey Ryan Jimmy Rave Colt Cabana Add in there that eventually Paul London most likely will come back. I imagine they will lose a few guys to WWE or TNA by summertime but they still have quite a roster even if they take some hits. |

Supposedly they realized that cutting everyones time was a lousy idea, so hopefully that is the end of that. |
