Maddox apparently said the word "Prick" in a dark match promo, which led to his release. This company is amazing.

I really like Sami as a worker, and he's a hell of a nice guy. I'm not sure what happened down there, but hopefully he can make some money heading back onto the indy circuit.

Rumor is that Sami Callihan/Solomon Crowe asked for and received his release from NXT.

Sorry, ruthless killers can't grant wishes or do anti-bullying commercials, so no room for ruthless killers around here.

Is Dolph Ziggler trying to be the drummer for Motley Crue with that entrance attire?

Rumor mill says Cesaro needs shoulder surgery.

I was more lambasting the fact that they most likely won't have a Survivor Series match on the Survivor Series PPV now. I just miss the old shows where it was a whole night of those matches, it was something different that set the show apart and made it feel special. But this is modern WWE, why be different and special when you can beat the same dead horse twice a week and once a month over and over.

Good thing we are getting this pesky Survivor Series match out of the way on the pre-show. Wouldn't want it taking up time on the Survivor Series pay per view.

This. All of This. (Even the, I know I am too old to be doing this, but fuck it I am doing it anyway part!!) Joe's and a Hasbro WWE ring pretty much define my childhood wrestling obsession.

Apparently Paragon Pro will be leaving the channel now. The show sucked, but at least it was a small level company getting a shot, and not The Little Company That Shouldn't continuing on...again. Wonder if Dixie took an Outlook Express class before they signed this deal?

Wow. Charlotte was terrible in that segment, and bringing Reid's death into things was totally unnecessary.

Del Rio blew the handspring into the lungblower spot, then accidently tore Kallisto's mask clear off attempting a reverse superplex. Not a good sequence there!

I'm glad someone else finds TJ Perkins to be the most talented guy that you just can't bring yourself to give a shit about.

So, is everyone's prediction Reigns vs Del Rio and Ambrose vs Owens leading to a Reigns/Ambrose final where one of them turns and joins the Authority?

I know Punk isn't everyone's cup of tea, but this Twitter exchange got a legitimate chuckle out of me...

Ambrose/Reigns final, with Ambrose joining The Authority?

I am wondering If we are having a "Traditional Survivor Series match" 2 weeks before Survivor Series, just so that we don't have to have any "Traditional Survivor Series Matches" at Survivor Series. You know, because there won't be time on the PPV.

I really don't like any directions this can go..... 1) Reigns gets screwed by the Authority at SS, has to win the Rumble, gets the belt from Rollins at Mania, and the fans that have mostly stopped boo'ing him inevitably turn back against him during the build, you know, because. 2) Reigns gets screwed by Dean Ambrose at SS, the Ambrose heel turn fails miserably because the fans want to cheer him, Reigns gets boo'ed, everyone looks like shit. 3) Reigns beats Rollins at SS, Sheamus cashes in MITB, the champion has no heat, Reigns goes back on the chase, everyone looks like shit. 4) Rollins wins clean at Survivor Series, Reigns is dead in the water 5) Reigns finally wins at SS, gets boo'ed by half the crowd, again...because....then who the fuck wins the Rumble? I'm sure there are options that I am missing, but in my mind these seem most likely with WWE's typical way of booking.

I ring announced a show at the end of September that BJ's girlfriend was wrestling on, and he accompanied her. We asked him if he wanted to work, and he said that he was still recovering from knee surgery. So I am assuming the surgery is legit, but he wasn't using crutches or anything when I saw him, so he is likely further along in his recovery than he is portraying on television.

So, what happened to Harper? He was the bright spot of Wyatt Family matches!

Thunderkitty? and don't forget the last time Mrs. Cleaver was in WWE, her son/boyfriend was abusing her.

Thatcher getting in on the Slow Motion gimmick during night 3 was so totally out of character, but he pulled it off very well.

Let me see if I have this straight. 1) They run a PPV and Matt Hardy defeats EC3 and Drew Galloway to become TNA Champion. 2) EC3 files an "Injunction" against Hardy, and Hardy just gives up the title without a fight. 3) Instead of a rematch, they set up a ridiculous 32 person round robin kind of tournament to determine a new champion. Makes perfect sense for TNA. Awesome.

Well, after all the build up that made it seem like something was going to happen, that most certainly was a possible way to end the show.
