To further add to that, CTE isn't something you can detect until you're dead. So when it comes to career decisions vs. concussions it has to be a proactive decision by the athlete and sport. Remember Chris Benoit had serious brain damage and they found CTE in his brain. The guy did countless flying head butts in his matches. The stories from those close to Benoit about how he ignored his head injuries are unsettling.
I can't imagine missing Mania just because he tried to play around with VKM. Poor guy's gotta be kicking himself right now, it really seemed like they were building him up for something this past while.
sports-YardbarkerI didn't originally notice it but that video does make it clear that Vince shoved him back. But still, I seem to remember Vince having a smile on his face after he turned back around.Fox Sports has the incident up on their site.

I don't really know what Titus was thinking there. He's 70 years old and Steph inadvertently got pushed too. The only possible reason I can think of for a 90 day suspension (assuming that's true) is if Stephanie is expecting or something. It seems more likely to me that Vince was still pissed from the night before and he was just sent home for the night since he wasn't on the card anyway.
I guess we'll see. Hopefully he isn't suspended for 90 days...
The New Beginning shows are never big shows for NJPW, but both will be worth watching. I think the Lion's Gate project is the new NXT like promotion NJPW is starting up, so that should be pretty interesting. NJPW almost always puts on a good show so it'll be worth checking it al out.
Alicia worked the crazy gimmick to a much greater extent circa early 2014 but inexplicably dropped it. I like Alicia "Crazy Like A" Fox and hope she keeps ramping it up.
The mere idea that she jumped from ferris wheel car to car to get to Tom Phillips is one of the most amusing things ever. And same on hoping she ramps it up, I don't mind some more diverse characters in the women's division.
Watch KC Timeline of WWF 1998 with Vince Russo. Drink every time he says the word "literally". You will literally be dead in literally 15 minutes.
And yet he's still facing a stiffer penalty than a 1st time wellness policy violation. Also, making him miss that Wrestlemania paycheck bonus is an extra special middle finger to him.
The same goes for Makabe and Ishii. They had a few different matches in the first half of 2015 and they really were the proverbial slobberknockers.
A couple years ago, he also retweeted someone that said they went balls deep in his daughter, so yes.
Daily Motion typically has them online for awhile. Last I checked they have all the current season 2 episodes, it sucks that it's not a legal way to watch it, but what can you do. Lucha Underground isn't exactly easy to watch unless you wanna get El Rey Network on your cable/satellite package or with Sling TV.
