    Did you know him? I don't remember him at all, as I didn't know ECW until 1997 when I began getting Pro Wrestling Illustrated over here in Ireland.

    i heard the name before, but wasn't too familiar with him.  Didn't know he lived in West Chester.  Only wrestler i knew that lived in West Chester (and I think still does) is Glen Osbourne (another indie wrestler).

    Has any more information come out about it or is it just case closed at this stage? Really sad that something like this has happened again like.

    not to my knowledge.  From what i read the police have been called to their house before though.  I have a feeling it's like a Chris Benoit thing.

    Yes, well that's what even the initial report suggested. That's so fucking sad, that someone would choose to take someone else out of this life.

    Money in the Bank tonight.  Here are my predictions:

    Samoa Joe wins the men's money in the bank (Miz or Rusev could win also)
    Becki Lynch wins the womens money in the bank (second pick, Charlotte Flair or Nattie)
    AJ Styles over Shinsuke
    Seth Rollins over Elias
    Bludgeon Bros. over Anderson and Gallows
    Roman Reigns over Jinder Mahal
    Rhonda Rousey over Nia Jax
    Asuka over Carmella (although I have a feeling Carmella might win this)
    Daniel Bryan over Big Cass by DQ
    Bobby Lashley over Sami Zayn (although I'm rooting for Sami)

    NXT Takeover last night was pretty solid as usual.  Main event was good, not sure about the ending though.

    it was pretty good. Elias/Rollins match was great. Styles/Shinsuke was also great.  The MITB mastches were good I just didn't like the winners.  Bliss winning?  *yawn*  And as much as i like Braun he didn't need to win it.

    WOW!  surprised about that.  Wonder why?  I actually kinda liked him.

    Yeah. I guess the details of why he's gone will probably leak out in the next few days. Does anyone here have a subscription to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter? Dave Meltzer will probably have the details. I know that he got into trouble before Backlash for something that happened in the buildup to the first Daniel Bryan match. I think it was that he wasn't supposed to beat up the mini Daniel Bryan as badly or something.

    Part of me says, "Damn, and he was only 63."

    Then the other part is, "Damn! He made it to 63!" I know he was still having matches last year too. Crazy.

    he did?  I didn't think he did cause he's been sick for the past two years.  Maybe it was like a few matches then?

    edit:  yeah he wrestled a few matches in Japan

    RIP Frankie's dad

    That was a sad piece of news. That guy had a pretty long fight with cancer. I can't say I know much about him outside of Tough Enough however.

    The suspension must be over by now if the card that he found Mark Hunt on (UFC 200) took place 2 years ago. This will be a great fight I expect.

    What was the card you got to see? I didn't make it to WWE when they came to Ireland this year as I had to work. I'd love to go to the Garden sometime.

    How was Finn Bálor vs. Seth Rollins vs. Dolph Ziggler? I wouldn't mind if that was the direction that they were headed in after Extreme Rules. The house shows are often a pretty good indicator of what's going to come next for them. That strikes me as a match that could easily be headlining some of these house shows. I really hope Finn Bálor gets some more attention from Vince.

    Extreme rules predictions:

    AJ Styles over Rusev
    Roman Reigns over Bobby Lashley
    Dolph Ziggler and Seth Rollins go to a draw in their 30 minute iron man match with 1 victory each
    Shinsuke over Jeff Hardy for the US title
    Alexa Bliss over Nia Jax
    Carmella over Asuka
    B-Team over Eaters of World for RAW belts  (I'm a fan of the B Team they're funny and their impressions of Hardy and Wyatt are hilarious)
    Bludgeon Brothers over Team Hell No
    Finn Balor over Baron Corbin
    Braun Strowman over Kevin Owens in a steel cage match
    Andrade Almas over Sin Cara
    Sanity over New Day in a tables match

    Weird how they built up Asuka for 2 years and then nothing. I would hope Asuka takes the title.

    I hear ya.  Actually rooting for her. Not a Carmella fan but Mella is money though. Don't think it's asuka time for a belt yet if that makes sense.

    Apparently Hulk Hogan was spotted backstage and has been reinstated into the wwe hall of fame

    Yea I saw that about Hogan also. It's about time. I had a feeling something was going to happen when he posted that video on Facebook a few days ago
