We are starting to have some real issues the way Wrestling News & Rumors have been getting posted lately. With that said, I am enforcing existing rules that some members may not be familiar with. Please make sure to read over this entire message before posting a News & Rumors thread.

We need the following in order for your thread to be accepted. Failing to comply will get your thread automatically put in the trash bin. There will be one warning in case you missed the thread. After that we will hand out infractions which can lead to a temporary ban if they add up. Just PLEASE follow these simple rules and we will be fine. It has just become an utter pain to edit, merge and move all these threads lately.

To post a thread:

1. Remove all links. To do so, right click "Select All", then click this button.. .

2. Match all text format and color. Pick one that fits you best.

3. Very important. Quoting sources…………
Only legitimate direct sources will be accepted. Initials of very well known sources are also acceptable. Never put the entire links in. Take out the www. Always quote the source. If you got the news from jimmybob.com and jimmybob.com got it from The Torch, then simply quote The Torch. The Torch are the people reporting it. We will let you know if your source is poop.

4. Double check your stuff. Make sure it has not been posted already. This is becoming a massive problem. Even if your note about Hulk Hogan is just one of the 8 notes, if the Hogan story has already been posted then take that part out. No need to read it 3 or 4 times.

5. ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS Quote your news. Then add your comments below. If its not at least worth commenting on it, its not worth telling the rest of us about.


Below is a proper example of a New thread.

Triple H and Shawn Michaels continue to wield more power than any other wrestlers on the WWE roster. Undertaker has a lot of stroke, but doesnt get involved in the creative process as much as HHH and Michaels. While everyone backstage pretty much agrees that HHH is overprotective of his spot, they also credit him with getting Vince McMahon to steer away from allowing the writers to use campy toilet humor. Michaels comes across more neutral during creative meetings and doesnt let his insecurities of losing his spot show.

Although HHH has more than his fair share of enemies in the locker room, there is at least a small feeling that he is a great asset to the company and he'll never get the credit that he deserves because hes married to the bosss daughter.

All sources seem to share the assumption that most of the heavy hitting HHH does is behind closed doors with Vince. However, there was an instance of HHH burying someone publicly when he openly mocked Chris Jericho's return gimmick.

For all the complains about HHH and Michaels, they are also viewed as the only guys willing and powerful enough to voice their concerns with the product. Vince loves to challenge people and HHH is not excluded from that just because he's family. HHH is said to have a legendary poker face, and no-sells Vince when he tries to push his buttons at creative meetings to see how HHH will react.

There is a group of upper-mid-card wrestlers who are just waiting for HHH, HBK and Undertaker to step aside so they can take control of the locker room, however there are no signs that this will happen anytime soon.

Sounds like Metzler reporting. They are hated, yet they are loved. He has too much power, yet he is the only one bold enough to discuss it.

Yeah yeah. Interesting enough of a read though.

These rules are as of today. Prior threads will be not an issue.

[Danny Diamond]

People are STILL not paying attention to this.


PLEASE PUT THE SOURCE IN THE QUOTES.

Then comment on the story.

Now that I have forced users to read this thread I will hand out infractions to anyone that doesn't do it this way.

Ok thanks bye.

UPDATE:

I only want threads posted from legit sites like PWInsider and Pro Wrestling Observer. Too many fan sites are being credited for reporting news when they are just re-reporting it themselves.

Infractions will be handed out to those that don't adhere to these new rules.

If you post news and dont read this thread then I can't help you. The title states that you must read it.

Ok thanks bye
