    On the plus side with my tech issues I was able to at least so far save the important stuff…and by that I mean my folders of like 8500 memes, so at least this Mondays meme thread won’t be barren 😅

    No RoH or TNA threads this week since I didn’t realize Geek was dealing with tech issues. But just a couple notes from this week’s RoH on Honor Club show:

    Looks like the Iron Savages are officially done, Jacked Jameson is now in a new faction called “The Frat House” with Preston Vance, Griff Garrison, (and a fourth whose name I didn’t catch and will surely be embarrassed for not knowing right away) and Cole Karter.

    -and-

    The Von Erich’s have returned from injury.

      Nice to see the Von Erich’s back, now a set of belts won’t be in purgatory!

      Frat House…I’ll give it a shot. Idgaf about Jacked Jameson but I still like Vance and Griff. Haven’t watched it but I’d take a guess the 4th was Cole Karter since he was partnered with Griff for most of the last year and it’d suck for him if they left him out since Maria is also gone lol.

      TNA side: The crowd chanting “We coming for you, Tessa” at Tessa ala Booker T to Hogan was a fucking moment and I guess her gimmick is “I’m a racist lol”

    So, word is that, when Tony Khan and Shane McMahon met last year, Shane tried to wheedle his way to an equity stake and a creative position with AEW despite not actually knowing anything about the product. Which, if that’s true, that’s kinda hilarious that Shane tried to big-league Tony like that.

    Sounds kinda like the deal that Bischoff and Hogan made with TNA back in the day, come to think of it, and likely would have been even more disastrous.

        I need it lol. Something is triggering it to reboot when being interacted with. Can happen after 5 mins, or an hour. If I leave it sit idle (it also runs a Plex server) it’ll be fine. Have had it playing Archer and a few films nonstop since 6am this morning. But if I go on that pc and open a browser and try to load Facebook for example, auto-reboots. No error, nothing logging in event viewer, nothing.

        …but it also occurs if I boot the pc to a linux liveboot USB stick so its a hardware issue. Probably something electrical I have to figure. It’s an old dell prebuilt POS long past its lifespan and fixing it is not really an option and neither is replacing it so I’m bunking up with my wife on her laptop until we can fix a different computer we have which I’ve complained about here before.

        And I’m broke lmao

          That’s a strange issue. The fact that it’s OS independent and not particularly tied to resource utilization makes me agree it might be electrical.

          Weird question, but have you tried swapping out your keyboard and mouse? I’m wondering if there might be faulty wiring on one of those causing a short or something.

    I know its only been 2 weeks since this rumble, but this grace-a-maniac is pretty disappointed Jordan hasn’t had a singles/tag match in the Fed yet.

        Well I did I appreciate seeing her wrestle tonight, but I was a bit disappointed as I thought she would go straight to the main roster rather than playing with developmental girls.

          Yeah she def should be on the main roster, but to echo what someone on Reddit said: it seems like WWE is wanting to go the ‘it doesn’t matter, you at least start in NXT for orientation for a little bit before the main roster’ route since most seem to have gone that way (not counting MCMG). Edit: oh and penta lmao

          She will def not be on NXT for long as is probably being shuffled to the main roster post-WM. Gives her 2mo on NXT, do some good work there then head to where she should be.

    I saw Claudio post this. I think it’s funny they’re all holding weird Australian animals except for Yuta who has a boring old turtle.
