MVP Discusses Why He Was Never World Champion, Admits He Isnt A Fan Of The Young Bucks Style

Posted: 13 Jun 2019 06:40 AM PDT https://www.prowrestling.com/mvp-discusses-why-he-was-never-world-champion/


Former WWE Superstar, MVP recently appeared on the E&C Pod Of Awesomeness
where he discussed why he was never a World Champion in WWE. Below are some highlights with a H/T to WrestlingInc.com for the transcriptions.

On why he was never World Champion:

There was a time, it was relayed to me by some of the writers who I had
become friends with and people higher up on the chain, that there was talk about me having a world championship run. But there was a lot of hesitation because there were certain countries that wouldnt allow me in because of my violent felony past. And I cant blame [WWE] for that. Thats a business decision. But Im like, damn, Im still paying. All these years later, Im
still paying. MVP explained, if the laws are set up that you are released
from prison then once the rules of our society have established that you
are allowed to be back in society, then you should have the rights of every other member of society. Thats my take.

On not being a fan of the Young Bucks style:

Now, Im the greybeard looking thats around, going, fk, things have evolved.
The only difference is Im not one of those bitter pricks going, aw, you
guys are killing the business! Im going, okay, Im not a fan of a lot of
what its becoming, but I recognize what it is.' MVP continued, you take The Young Bucks. They are the hottest act in the world. I was on a tour with
them in Australia, The House Of Hardcore. And you had me, Tommy Dreamer,
Billy Gunn, Jack Swagger… you had a bunch of name guys on the card and the longest line every night was [for]The Young Bucks. They sold out of
t-shirts. They brought boxes of t-shirts and they sold out on like the
second night. Booker T and I, we often argue, good-naturedly of course,
about The Young Bucks and I would defend them. And I say, Im not a fan of
The Young Bucks style of wrestling, but I am a fan of The Young Bucks
because to create your own lane, and you find a niche, and you get your
groove on, if people are buying tickets to see it, how could anybody say,
youre be doing it wrong?

Mike Kanellis Calls Out WWE For Not Caring About 205 Live

Posted: 13 Jun 2019 05:47 AM PDT https://www.prowrestling.com/mike-kanellis-calls-out-wwe-for-not-caring-about-205-live/


Mike Kanellis expressed his honest thoughts about how he feels WWE
management, calling out the company for not caring about 205 Live.

Kanellis originally tweeted, promoting how good this weeks episode of WWE
205 Live was, to which a fan replied stating how it seems like the company doesnt care about the cruiserweight show.

Once again @WWE205Live puts on the best WRESTLING show of the week. Are you paying attention now? #wwe @WWE

- Mike Bennett (@RealMikeBennett) June 12, 2019



Mike Kanellis didnt hold back his thoughts on that subject though, stating
that WWE doesnt care about 205 Live, but he also made a point to state that
the talent care incredibly about the brand.

They don’t. But the roster does. And everyone involved with 205 cares more than you could possibly imagine. https://t.co/55EHeC2nSN

Renee Young Squashes Rumor Regarding WWE Incident In Saudi Arabia

Posted: 13 Jun 2019 04:56 AM PDT https://www.prowrestling.com/renee-young-squashes-rumor-regarding-wwe-incident-in-saudi-arabia/


A recent report online had claimed that WWE commentator, Renee Young was subject to some abuse by a religious group whilst in Saudi Arabia with WWE.

The report had claimed that a group had yelled at her for not covering her
head during the broadcast, although she did have her arms covered during
the show.

However, it appears that wasnt the case as Renee Young took to Twitter to squash the rumor, making it clear that she was never yelled at and instead, insisted that they were treated with nothing but respect.

Yeah that definitely never happened. We were treated with nothing but
respect while in Jeddah. https://t.co/epPohAVmAc
