You know I've been cutting Cole and JBL some slack after seeing that leaked video of just how much Vince is in their ear. I've called JBL the worst "heel" announcer of all time but they are so handcuffed its ridiculous. Now I understand why I've had to listen to JBL for 2 months "I HATE THAT STUPID BUNNY" because Vince thinks a guy in a bunny suit beating up a low level heel is comedy. That said, they both still suck. I just think Vince is a smart man, I wonder when he lost touch with reality.

I was only able to find a short one of Vince talking to Maggke where you only hear Maggle. Its pretty telling though...

Are there any other vids?

Can you post this vid? I'd be interested to hear about it. I've heard the nightmare stories about how Vince is literally screaming at them the entire three hours.

It was a Europe Tour RAW I think, so the show was obviously taped hours before we see it and some site got ahold of the original. Maybe DeadSpin posted it? I'm not sure. But you here Maggle saying during a break "yes sir..yes. Okay but I didn't think you wanted me to say that EVERY time."

Like the s*** they shove down out throats is Vince telling them to repeat it over and over and over.

Thanks for posting MIMH. Yeah, that doesn't surprise me at all. Can you imagine trying to do commentary and having to deal with that the entire broadcast? It makes me appreciate what they do a lot more

Ahh, ok. I do remember reading about this but never saw that clip.

What I pictured was somebody getting a hold of both ends of that audio.

People just realize now that Vince is in the commentators ears? It's been that way for years. He feeds them a majority of what to say and how to say it.

I didn't mean it like that.

I was more surprised about the audio surfacing, or what I originally thought was both ends of the audio.

For a laugh, I put in Nelson Mandela, and it came up "Mighty Testicleeze". I laughed almost to the point of tears

At the NXT taping, Prince Devitt debuted as Finn Balor, as he and Hideo Itami (KENTA) completely demolished the Ascension. I would be thrilled if these two became a full time team, as they work similar styles, Devitt can do the talking, and also they are easily 2 of the top 15-20 in ring performers in the world. I'm actually super excited about this.

Finn Balor.... that just sounds weird. Agree though them two as a full time team would be awesome.

Bionic tart is my wrestling name. Sounds like that kind of name should be in the divas division

A neat write up from si.com about one of my favorite indie wrestlers getting his custom gear stolen, and fans coming to his aid.

According to a WWE source, company officials are very concerned with CM Punk chants ruining tonight’s Raw broadcast.

Consequently, members of the WWE social media department have been told to scour Reddit, Twitter, top-liked Facebook fan pages, and assorted other forums and platforms to find out if there are any rallying plans lined up similar to the #HijackRaw movement back in March.

Additionally, WZ has been told Michael Hayes, Kevin Dunn, and Vince McMahon himself really dislike Colt Cabana, and have informed the social media department to keep an eye out for any mentions of his name.

A few fans at the last Chicago show reportedly bought front row tickets and were wearing Colt Cabana t-shirts which security made them remove as soon as they were seated.

WWE officials want to make sure there’s no Twitter or general social media campaign to make something “bigger” happen as a result of the first “Hijack Raw” plans being squashed by WWE.
