Posted in the coronavirus thread but even WWE smackdown went ahead with no crowd. My son is watching It now and it’s all from the performance centre with empty seats.
It was pretty surreal, especially since the international feed kept running during ads, and the first match didn't know, so they stopped wrestling during the ad break...
Apparently Wrestlemania is now running along the same lines.

Wow thats a crackup!

Had read that too. Seems everything this year is just going to be that little bit different
-
Day 1 of Wrestlemania just finished - not bad considering the lack of crowd. Pretaped and clearly a bit of editing going on, but if there is no crowd, may as well make the most of TV.
Undertaker vs AJ Styles in the Boneyard Match was a classic B-movie fight (in that it was filmed at a cemetery [so presumably on a WWE film set], not just a match at the PC) which I enjoyed the heck out of, but obviously not going to be everyone's taste!

Latest list of WWE talent releases and employee furloughs
A roundup of announcements made by the company or talent on April 15.
After buying up talent with 5 year deals, suddenly WWE is releasing people left, right and centre.
-
Presumably this means the plan will involve propping up big old businesses and making sure small, agile businesses with lots of talent get buried

i think the Raw is War period is the pinnacle, but the WWF days were certainly mad as fuck.

I remember looking at an old promo poster for the Royal Rumble from the late 80s and out of 20 Wrestlers 10 of them are now dead.
Recreational and performance enhancing drugs aren't a recipe for a long life.
Amazingly Jake the Snake is still alive ( not enough steroids to go with the coke ? ) and shit he can tell some good yarns.....check this out.....his Macho Man impression is better than the real thing was !

@mariner4life yup, outcome might be fake, but man, the acrobatics and athleticism of some was a sight to behold.
Used to thnk Stephanie McMahon & Trish were sexy AF

Iron Sheik has always been awesome on twitter. So apparently is Wendys
