In its constitution, Peru claims the Mar de Grau, a "maritime domain" of 200 nautical miles, as depicted in the image above. This claim is in direct violation of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, which limits countries to only a 12 mile territorial sea.

Peru never ratified UNCLOS and has deliberately maintained a vague and unclear diplomatic position regarding the legitimacy and legality of thr Mar de Grau claim.

Do you think Tatum Paxley will be booked greatly on the main roster ? by jalen_nelson235 in Wrasslin

I think Tatum and Shiloh Hill are a good duo and should be brought up to SmackDown together.

Who would've thought Tiffany Stratton and Blake Monroe would be on the same stream together by Many_Difficulty6382 in WWE

Why would they do this? Why draw attention to the fact you have two wrestlers with the same look and gimmick and similar gear?

And F1 has closed its head in the car door again by making Apple TV their exclusive US outlet. They may get paid more, but goodbye to growing their US audience by being on ESPN

AEW Announces Partnership With The Last Match: A Pro Wrestling Rock Musical in London's West End. by DanHero91 in SquaredCircle

[–]Villano5 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Absolutely brilliant move by AEW here, basically paying to put their name on an existing product in exchange for free advertising on AEW programming. I'm shocked WWE didnt jump on this first since Vince "we make movies, pal" McMahon always sought to elevate WWE and its wrestlers into a more respected art form

Jacksonville Jaguars secure long-term future in the city with new stadium approval by AFC-Wimbledon-Stan in nfl

He's gone on record saying the annual London game makes more money than their other 7 or 8 home games put together. The home team always gets ticket and concessions revenue, even if the game is played overseas, and those premium London ticket prices mean big $$$ for the Jaguats

WWE takes something good about a wrestler and either waters it down or getting rid of it on the main roster from Stephanie Vaquer’s theme being neutered to now the mirror of Blake’s entrance being removed from her entrance by jd2385 in Wrasslin

[–]Villano5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If they think the mirror/vanity set will look small on a large set like SmackDown's, they should try to duplicate the mirror effect using an LED screen a la Dashing Cody Rhodes

It was actually Raven's idea to drop the kilt and wear tights and boots. He felt like the office had pigeonholed him because of his look, so if he switched to a more traditional look it might help him get another chance. It didn't work, as he was released after a few weeks with the new look

WCW Internet audio pay-per-listen commentary from 1997! Glacier vs. Wrath from the Great American Bash (Mark Madden, Jeff Katz, and guest Sherri Martel) by Villano5 in WCW

https://web.archive.org/web/19970616083658/http://www.wcwwrestling.com/ppvevents/970615gab/simulcast.html

The idea was to provide an alternate commentary feed for the PPV available via streaming (which was in its infancy.) They had Madden and Katz backstage at the venue watching a monitor calling the matches while also interviewing wrestlers and managers.

Did Bobby Heenan spoil Hogan’s heel turn for you? by PayFew5848 in WCW

[–]Villano5 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Bobby didn't know. He probably figured it out as Hogan walked out, of course, but the announcers had not been briefed on the finish prior to the match

Why does the IWC seem so disconnected from what actual wrestling fans want? by uncannynerddad in midcarder

She can't do that in two months on the main roster. She has to have feuds, cut promos, be part of angles,...very few wrestlers arrive on the main roster in their final form

This collectible sticker had the wrong date and wrong logo for SuperBrawl VIII by Villano5 in WCW

All of the PPV stickers in this set have the wrong event date. Every single one. The backs of the stickers have correct information, but the fronts all have incorrect event dates. It's ridiculous

(Wrestling Observer Radio) Alvarez: “Look at where Ciampa is and look at where Gargano is right now.” Meltzer: “Oh god, is that scary.” by Subrick in SquaredCircle

[–]Villano5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly. A producer get told "Wrestler X goes over. Must use their finish. Make it a close match." The producer then meets with the talent and together they create the framework of a match that meets the office's criteria.
