The Ultimate WWE Thread

According to the report, one of the women was a former wrestler, who was paid $7.5 million. She claimed that McMahon coerced her into giving him oral sex, then demoted her and opted not to renew her contract in 2005 when she refused to do anything else. The wrestler and her lawyer met with McMahon in 2018 and negotiated the settlement.

In another incident, a WWE contractor sent the company unsolicited nude photos that McMahon allegedly sent her. This woman claimed that McMahon sexually harassed her on the job, according to her 2008 nondisclosure agreement. McMahon agreed to pay her $1 million.

Another NDA and payment happened in 2006, when a manager who worked for McMahon for 10 years was paid a million after turning him down when he made sexual advances.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

I think the first one is likely to be Dawn Marie or Christy Hemme.

The only other women in 2005 who were cut were Jackie Gayda and Molly Holly.

Edit: Hemme seems the most likely as she's only been seen once in WWE since which as the 2017 HOF for Beth Phoenix. With Dawn Marie she was pregnant when she was released and took the company to court for wrongful dismissal and surely it would have come up then.

[Shindig]

Not if the kid was a McMahon.

[Ben]

Danny Doring kind of alluded to Hemme being a bit of a rascal in an interview so she might be the most likely out of the potential candidates.

Hemme herself said she was let go for refusing to do something that had nothing to do with wrestling. There were rumours for years that she refused to shag HHH but this makes a lot more sense.

Still, if it is her, she's done well. $7.5m for a blowjob? WCW only cost half of that.

[Lewis]

There will be non-rasslin' fans out there right now assuming that this is the very worst stuff Vince McMahon has ever done.

[Ian]

We've said this before but a proper warts and all expose on Vince if Shane or Steph or one of his trusted goons decided to let rip would be incredible and probably incredibly grim.

[Shindig]

"I told Mulah where to get the girls." That'll have to come out at some point.

RAW is no longer PG as of Monday. Vince

[Shindig]

He's gonna puke.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

Get a bra and panties match booked pronto.

[Ian]

Great, so it'll be the exact same but with more flesh and gratuitous blood in every match of a 6 month, 38 match feud.

[Ben]

Same old shit except the odd “Damn!” thrown in.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

Roderick Strong apparently requested his release which was rejected.

No surprise he asked to leave considering all his UE mates and his wife are in AEW.

[Baz]

Is he as bad as her?

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

In my opinion Roddy was the unsung hero of UE in WWE NXT.

I felt he was so much better than Adam Cole and around the same sort of level as Kyle O'Reilly (who was also undervalued until his last few months).

Edit: Marina Shafir was always shit, no idea how she got a job after her NXT stint. Which I assume she only got because of 2 reasons, firstly being Roddy's wife and secondly because I feel like they were planning a MMA Four Horsewomen v WWE Four Horsewomen rivalry at one point. However, Shafir (and Duke) weren't good enough.

[Ian]

Strong is a million times better than Shafir but given Baz thinks Danielson is shit he'll probably think Strong is as well.

[Baz]

Strong is a million times better than Shafir but given Baz thinks Danielson is shit he'll probably think Strong is as well.

This again.

Just cos someone used to be good, doesn’t mean they always are. Look at Pogba.

[Ian]

"This again." I think this is literally the first time I've brought it up without you having mentioned him.

Danielson is as good as he has been since he started in WWE. And those who can't be doing with the WWE template would probably say better though I don't have a particular stance on that front.

[wullie]

I thought Danielson was best in AEW during those few weeks when he was just battering people and insulting the local team, they seemed pulled the rug out from under him quickly when Regal became available and he became one of the lads again.

[Ian]

Grizzled Young Veterans' James Drake and Zack Gibson are now called Jagger Reid and Rip Fowler.

You can't move in the UK for people called Jagger and Rip.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

They've got a real talent.

You think they've come up with the worst name possible and then they manage to outdo themselves.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

"He'll [Captain Insano] be back," Wight said. "The guy who wrote The Waterboy has approved. Tony Khan and I have secured the rights to Captain Insano. There's already an outfit made, the whole nine yards. We're doing a lot of prep work, and this will be my last hoorah so to speak."

[Shindig]

I'd rather see a buddy cop movie with Excaliber and Tax. They never get out the car in the whole movie.

For some reason a Turkish child who is seemingly famous on TikTok has this URL on his TikTok and Linktree pages (not removed from Linktree, actually) so the Discord server has been flooded with children, claiming to be big fans of me. I presume he used to have the URL but his Nitro expired and I got it. Having to put a lot of effort into trying to screen the children from the wrestling fans (I posted the link on Reddit and 2 other forums) but it’s annoying. I’ve contacted all relevant parties as best as I can but on it goes.

On a side note: Plex is bloody great (when set up correctly) isn’t it? All episodes of Dynamite and Rampage accessible, ordered nicely and looking lovely. Great bit of software. I’ve set up qBittorrent to auto download new episodes and PPVs and I’m set for life, really. Loving it.

People requesting ROH and WWE though, which I’m not sure about tbh. Maybe ROH PPVs but if they do weekly shows it’ll be too much wrestling for me to watch. Even now I sometimes skip Rampage. Dynamite is usually always incredible though.

Also grabbed a load of old WWE PPVs where someone has edited the ones on WWE Network and put the proper music an uncensored bits in.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

Yeah Plex is brilliant, I've had it for a couple of years now.

I need to invest in something like a Pi server for when I'm out and don't want to keep my PC on though.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

This after Flair suggested he'd be facing a RAW wrestler a couple of hours ago.

[Shindig]

All that effort from Andrade for a $10 gift voucher and maybe Ric buys him a drink afterwards. Heck, who am I kidding?

Got some wrestling TV shows to work through.

There’s a new series called WWE Rivals. First was HBK vs Bret Hart, then Undertaker vs Kane. Funny that the latter had absolutely zero mention of Kane not being able to talk, or any footage of him using his voice box thing, like it just didn’t happen.

There’s also a new series of the A&E Biography programme on WWE Legends. I’d previously watched the Stone Cold and Roddy Piper ones but then gave up when the next was Macho Man. Picked it back up now (skipped Macho Man) and the Booker T episode was great. As someone who stopped watching wrestling [every week] in about 2004, I was unaware of the whole King Booker stuff but damn his wife is hot. #phwoar I also didn’t realise how big he was in WCW, and that he wasn’t always just a jokey wrestler with memorable gimmicks.

Will probably watch the Shawn Michaels and Mankind ones from series 1 (skip Ultimate Warrior and Bret Hart) but don’t think I’ll bother with any of season 2 so far (Undertaker, Goldberg and Bella Twins). Looking forward to the Kurt Angle one though, and DX.

I should probably pick up wherever I was upto with the Monday Night War, and then watch Ruthless Aggression. Maybe I’ll become a John Cena fan, who knows.

[Mike]

To become a Big Match John fan, just watch his US title run

[wullie]

Fucking hell, Vince McMahon is retiring maybe

[Lewis]

The greatest heel in wrestling history. FACT.

[wullie]

Ric Flair's in-ring career outlasting him isn't something I was expecting.

It's over.

[wullie]

There's got to be a lot more of the rapey stuff to come out in the next few weeks

[Gray Fox]

The walls have crumbled around him then.

[Browning]

Lesnar has walked out....

Brock not happy?

[wullie]

Shane vs HHH to now main event Summerslam, CEO contract on a pole

[7om]

Vince vs FBI - Twice in a Lifetime.

I’ll remember him for the good times, but the last decade has been atrocious and he should’ve gone a long time ago, at least in the creative capacity.

Well business has picked up.

[Baz]

Brock vs Wardlow please

[Gray Fox]

If the above is true, Brock will never take Small Time Tonys money.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

Kevin Dunn might be done, we wont have to put up with a million camera cuts

[Ian]

Brock gone?
