Ugh. Let’s seriously stop referring to them as “divas”. That alone drives me crazy. Badasses like Sasha, Charlotte, Becky, Paige, and Bayley deserve more respect, and I think it is long overdue to call it the “Women’s Division” again.

I disagree. Any kind of fighting sport, it’s important to consider yourself awesome. You need that kind of confidence going into a fight, or else your head can get the best of you. I did amateur wrestling for almost 10 years, and I had to have the same mentality before every match or tournament. If I didn’t, I would…
I think the problem was simply in the hype, like you said. I never thought she was unbeatable, but she has an awesome presence, a wonderful confidence, and a power about her that really sets her apart. She would do very well in WWE.
Say what you want, but I think she’s super-hot. Her confidence, her strength, and her presence are all very attractive, and to be perfectly honest, I wouldn’t mind being thrown around by her. ;)
Yeah. I don’t see Dana letting her go, but if she does happen to lose again in the rematch, Dana might consider. If he makes a deal with Vince McMahon, there’s a lot of potential to bring her over to WWE within the next year. She’s already expressed interest, and without a doubt, she will fit it just fine.
I like women who are strong, assertive, and can kick my ass. Wanna fight about it? ;)
Honestly, I think she’d do better in WWE. At least in WWE, she can continue to appear to do what she’s already doing. It’ll be an easier transition than going to Hollywood, especially given that she already appeared at Wrestlemania this past year, and setting up a spot with Stephanie McMahon has the potential to be a…
Ronda will be fine. She’ll have a rematch with Holly Holm for the title, and win or lose, she’ll be completely okay. WWE has already been talking with her, and she could make a killing in sports entertainment. She already has strong sponsors, and she has a personality that attracts a lot of people. Not only that,…
You’re correct, but these movies are also timeless, meaning they are still funny to this day. My son watched Airplane and thought it was hilarious, despite the fact that he didn’t understand a ton of the humor. The fact that when I was a kid and loved Airplane and only loved it more the older I got shows how powerful…
How does it make no financial sense after what I just explained? Do you not think when Mike Tyson lost to Buster Douglas that 1) The PPV sales went through the roof, 2) Heavy odds betters made a crap ton of money, 3) All boxing federations at the time benefited from an unbeatable monster losing to a nobody, and 4)…
I think you’re not quite grabbing what I’m saying. Let’s look at boxing. Mike Tyson basically murdered people for the first many years of his career, but who was his first loss to? Buster fuckin’ Douglas. Douglas was at such a disadvantage to Tyson that the odds in Vegas were 42-to-1. Can you smell that? Betting on…
Actually, that’s precisely why gambling and booking and fixing works so much better in UFC than it ever did in boxing. For a UFC fighter, it’s pretty common for someone to be a one-hit wonder, and we’ve been accustomed to this trend in UFC since the late 90s. Big names like Ken Shamrock, Mark Coleman, and Dan Severn…
The thing I hate about Rogan is his arrogance and ZERO knowledge inside the ring, and yet, he boldly talks like he’s a 10-year veteran inside the Octagon. I don’t mind him calling Shamrock out, but he didn’t simply do that. He tried to verbally destroy Shamrock, who is (Despite these seemingly fixed fights) still a…
Umm... yes. Do you know how gambling works in fights? If CroCop was a 20/1 odds to win, you wouldn’t make much money betting on CroCop because of the high odds. However, betting on the other guy who was such low odds, that would bank you a lot of money. Betting on the other guy to KNOCK OUT CroCop, that’s where the…
We didn’t hear about it in boxing until the 90’s, but found out then that it was going on rampantly. We knew about some instances that seemed pretty sketchy (e.g. Liston vs Ali), but for the most part, everyone thought boxing was legit. You can tell when it was exposed, the sport died, but prior to that, everything…
Well, having watched the IBF and WBA (Two boxing organizations) go through the same exact thing, I don’t doubt any of this. As commoners, we don’t know how deep the corruption goes, but one thing’s for sure, it’s there. There’s too much money to be made, and with too much money comes great power and influence.
I’m researching really hard to figure out who this guy is, and I swear, he used to be a wrestler. However, when I looked up Andre the Giant at Wrestlemania, he has no opponent! I don’t remember it that way. Maybe I imagined Andre wrestling someone and being slammed by such a guy. I guess it must be me, because there’s…
Did I say “UFC” was benefiting? No. I just said the sport is extremely easy to fix, especially now that there are rounds. It’s become just like boxing. Bets on who’s gonna win, in what round, by what means. Each stipulation gains you more income. Fixing a fight for someone to lose by knockout in the 4th round, and…
I think what makes UFC the easiest sport to corrupt is that upsets and surprises are commonplace. In boxing, it was never forgivable to have a new champion crowned at every PPV. Everyone would just stop watching. But for some reason, UFC almost prides in the fact that their champions can change at the drop of a dime.
You realize the bigger the odds, the bigger the payout, right? Upsets, if planned, make the most money. Unlike boxing, where surprises are less forgivable, UFC can have upsets at every single event and people won’t question it. Gamblers and bookies are just laughing to the bank, because UFC is basically an easier…
