The wedding was great, everyone was amazing in their roles, and it was a wrestling wedding that didn't get ruined in the end. That has to be the first time since Uncle Elmer for that to happen. Johnny Gargano has been more entertaining as the overprotective dad (who kinda has legit reasons to be so considering the boyfriend is a serial killer) than anything else he's ever been involved with. Even Austin Theory has been killing it as the "dumb brother" which admittedly probably isn't that much of a stretch for him.

The WWE stans have a valid excuse this week as football did bonkers numbers.

He's full of shit, but the dude he @'ed is legit and if is involved for real it might actually lead to something.

I guess it does make Brandi into a sympathetic figure trying to wrangle her husband and his wacky friends, but I'm not sure how anyone can think Cody comes off well.

It's only more bizarre when you see the promos for his reality show and the clips they chose to promote it makes Cody come off as a self centered manchild that Brandi can barely put up with.

Rick got over as the child like muscle man who was being bullied by the rest of the group, and when he finally turned the crowd went nuts.

I'm not saying Cody's IRL stances don't color people's perceptions, but he has go away heat with a lot if people who aren't in to having a separate Codyverse that seems completely unattached to the rest of the company. Honestly I think he's miscast as a babyface, he has such natural heel charisma. If he would lean into that I think it would be better for him and the show overall.

You can say shit all you want, it's cable TV. TK just put limits on how many times people can say it so it doesn't get overused.

I was thinking the same thing bubba. He was fine in there with the B team (Gallows and Anderson) but with Cole he was El Matador'ing it up.

This is the kind of thing that I love about AEW. They fucked up, but instead of getting angry at the fans about it they leaned into it and made it part of the angle. Also someone pointed out that Bryan's new look +super mushroom from Mario = Brock's new look and I can't unsee it now.

In other news Jade-berg continues to be awesome.

He was in Impact, maybe he slipped through the forbidden door.

Man, I feel about Cody the way ya'll feel about MJF I suppose. Captain Tryhard in the flesh.

No one's saying it's not hard. No one else does it anymore though. Heels either want to be cool or they are super edgy like Black. We don't see any legit despicable heels too much anymore and MJF is a 100% zero redeemable qualities douchebag who doesn't care about your feelings.

Brian Jr killing it in that interview. And MJF is supposed to be this way, his whole gimmick is basically 80s heel that says shit that gets him stabbed in the parking lot after the show.

Johnny Ace's executive credentials are pretty much being kept by Mrs. Baba (allegedly) and being one of a million agents in WCW. Plus every time he's given any responsibility he does shit like hire the wrong one legged guy. Mark Henry checks every box you could want in that position, his ties to community groups alone is a PR gold mine WWE just left on the table. Knowing Vince, he probably thinks Mark is a pussy because he writes poetry or some alpha male BS, on top of the other obvious reason.

I mean, we had WMs headlined by Sika and Cowboy Bob's sons so you never know.

Seemed like they were kind of doing him a disservice by having his debut be in a main event title match. Like we didn't even know this dude existed until the beginning of the show and he's getting a title shot? I mean granted no one was expecting him to win but it seemed like they could have tapped the brakes just a little considering a million people debuted here.

Then I wonder what the pitch was then. Clearly it wasn't enough to swing the deal.

I wasn't expecting Sexy Idol Kenta content and my brain isn't sure how to process this information.

Thick dudes can get away with not being the tallest since the thickness is like an optical illusion making those kind of dudes seem taller than they are. If we're being honest, Brian Cage is basically a dude in the wrong era. He'd be a great monster villain for Hogan to beat on an episode of Saturday Night's Main Event.

Honestly all I could think of seeing him wasn't the name, but "are we sure he's Bloom's kid and not Andre's". You could set a drink on my man's eyebrow ridge.

Shocked Vince hasn't called Kacy Katanzaro up to the main roster to be a real Lily doll yet.

Also I love that the story here seems to be Sarray kicked Mandy Rose in the face so hard she turned into Raven.

All the new faces on NXT look like they have potential (except Duke Hudson, dude just looks like a Generic CAW: UK Edition). Just having new faces in more than squash matches felt like a breath of fresh air.
