My hometown wrestler Ricochet, residing from Paducah, Kentucky

Best wrestler in moves in the business.

I am thinking if I ever saw him as a boy and there is a change I might have.

I have been keeping up with him for about five years since he wore a mask and went by the name Prince Puma in Lucha Underground. His finishing move is Amazing, I don't know how any human being can do that.


On a side note, I had never heard of Paducah, Kentucky until recently and now I know of three people from there, Ricochet, you and my mom worked with a guy in the newspaper business some years ago from there that found his way to Spartanburg, SC. How many people live in Paducah?

25K in city but about close to 100k in the vicinity.

It has grown. When I went back home on Thanksgiving I was like WTF? this city has changed. It is a beautiful city to see, if you want to see old school buildings and architect. It has so many things in the city and in the surrounding area that would amaze you.

If it wasn't for my kids, I would move there.

The high schools are good as well, the new one is McCrakren County and the school is like a university in buildings.

I worked at Lockheed Martin when I was back home in the 90's, it has now changed. I was in charge of the database for depleted uranium stuff.
 
Thanks for asking, you make me miss home.

Going back home is special, with family, friends and just experience the music scene which is very good and renown. I can go back but flying there from here is about 700 a pop one way and the pay there is not like the cities of Minneapolis or Madison, or even Milwaukee.
 
BIG NEWS!!!

WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross, who recently signed with All Elite Wrestling, appeared on WFAN Radio in New York City earlier today and said AEW will have a weekly two-hour live TV show that premieres in October.

JR did not reveal the timeslot or the name for the AEW TV show, and he refused to elaborate on what network will carry the program. Ross did say the AEW TV show will air on a major network that we all have access to.

"[AEW] is overwhelming for me," Ross said. "To be 67 years old and be anointed the voice of a brand that's gonna be debuting in October on national television on a major cable network, which can't be named now. When people hear what network we're going on, they're gonna be doubly excited. It's a network we can all find."

Ross also said AEW is going for a more athletic presentation compared to what we see on TV from other promotions these days.

"I think what they're shooting for is a more athletic presentation," JR revealed. "It will hopefully be less eye rolling than the sophomore drama class trying to convince you in a 10 minute promo of anything they're saying. It's too long. Our audience can't handle that."

As confirmed, Ross signed a three-year deal with AEW and will make his commentary debut at Double Or Nothing on May 25, but he will also serve as a Senior Adviser to the company. His contract was called "the most lucrative deal in pro wrestling commentary history" in the AEW press release.

The rumor is it will be on TNT. Holy crap!

Considering TNT was airing AAF and MMA recently I can believe it that they'd think about bringing wrestling back into the fold.
 
The story lines are getting better.

I think "The Man" Becky Lynch is the hottest wrestler on the roster.

I like how they are doing the NXT/WWE angles and matches to give talents like Ricochet and Black some TV time for prime time, that is a very very good tag team even though they are individual wrestlers.

Aleister Black probably have the best striking moves in the business. I don't know but his Muay Thai fighting style is deadly.
 
Before you all say it is fake and scripted, which you are correct.

But for those two pull off those moves, even Hollywood have a hard time doing it without edits.

Amen on Black. Surprised he never gave MMA a try with his striking. If the dude were American, he’d be a top guy
 
Horrible main event Guess they were out of time and had to rush the finish.

That was a grade C wrestlemania at best. Thoughts?

The show was too long, I fell asleep with like four matches left and woke up and Angle lost to Borin Corbin? What?!? Meltzer is reporting that Ronda has a severely broken hand but there was no botch.

On a brighter note they are having a "Superstar Shake-Up" next week and maybe we will get some fresh stories and feuds. My main wish for tonight is for Adam Cole to get called up from NXT and try to help save Raw.
 
Tonight may be Ricochet and Black's night, the company has to take the Raw Tag Team Titles from Ryder and Hawkins sooner rather than later.

Well they need to do it in the first hour. I have my kids and they dominate the TV.

But you are right, those two do not look in the best of shape.

Ricochet and Black are the buzz right now.

And Black fighting style is very unique in the WWE. Some are close, but he is the real deal there.
