However, White deer hold a place in the traditions of many cultures. They are considered to be messengers from the otherworld in some Celtic mythology; they also played an important role in other pre-Indo-European cultures, especially in the north. The Celts believed that the white stag would appear when one was transgressing a taboo, such as when Pwyll trespassed into Arawn's hunting grounds. In English folklore, the white hart is associated with Herne the Hunter.

  3. One thing I noticed during the Rumble (after not seeing a show for 10+ years) is that the announcers talked about past workers a lot more. Even mentioning Dean Ambrose, something that would not of happened years ago. Have they been doing this for a while or is it something new?

     

    It depends. They've also been mentioning other companies a lot more, with the Viking Raiders referencing their history in ROH and NJPW.

     

    As for tonight, why on Earth do they keep giving Ronda a mic? Especially when, at this point, she's going to be going up against either Charlotte or Becky, who will just run miles around her when it comes to promos.

  4. So, some wrestlers just aren't very good. Maybe they're awful in the ring, maybe they're just a charisma vacuum, whatever.

     

    But sometimes, you hire them anyway. Maybe they're rays of sunshine that improve the backstage atmosphere significantly. Maybe you just need a warm body to eat pins.

     

    So, who are your "They stink up the ring, but..." picks?

     

    For me, it's Tsuki Kawamata. I usually play women's companies in the C-Verse. Now, Tsuki's skills aren't generally suited for either QAW or 5 Star, and in 2020, she's unlikely to get any better.. And her entertainment skills are a bit lacking. But, she's cheap, and she's bilingual. So, if you're a Joshi company that wants to bring in some gaijin, or an American company looking to bring in some Japanese workers, she's an economical choice for smooth transitions. In fact, I'm preparing to start up a developmental company, and she's on my short list of potential owners/ bookers (can't remember offhand which one she can do).

I mea, it was good, but it didn't advance any storylines, and served no other purpose than to put a spotlight on Britt, who really doesn't need it at this point. I mean, that was promoted a week in advance, and THAT was it? Her just insulting Cleveland for like 10 minutes?</p>
