I'm kinda digging the story with Page and Hardy where Adam knows he's fulla shit but it's working so he's going with it.

You seem really invested in this for some reason. I'm not trying to move any goalposts here, I (and a lot of other people) are simply pointing out someone who has previously posted racist beliefs (he's supported the Proud Boys before) made a hand gesture widely seen as racist. That's really the extent here. Anything else smacks of whataboutism.

I hope that spoiler happens, I'd be all for it.

I mean, I suppose the other guy could be smooth brained Q anoner too, but if he is he hasn't been as proudly vocal abut it. Drake has a history of publicly sharing his racist right wing views to anyone and everyone, but sure I guess I'm just making wild assumptions out of the blue here. Like, I could see the argument here if it was literally anyone else involved here but there's way too many examples of people who share his beliefs that just happen to be photographed making the exact same gesture. If I am assuming Drake has ALL the opinions I don't like, it's because he's been busy on Twitter/IG/Parler telling us that he indeed does have all the bad opinions. I mean, like the saying goes: when someone tells you who they are, believe them,

He's a guy who's posted right wing/Q anon propaganda who seems to be purposely positioning his hand to look like the white power OK symbol as opposed to the other refs who are jus putting up the number 3. Also a black guy is going to get the benefit of the doubt that he isn't knowingly throwing up white supremacist hand signs but a smooth brained Q anoner will not have that same benefit.

This week we get RIHO! so that's enough for me.

Jacqueline was so great that even though she was physically way smaller that everyone she still had that aura that she would beat everyone's ass at the drop of a hat.

Yes, clearly Jim is longing for the days of sports-based connections in wrestling like getting his face shoved in cakes and getting tarred and feathered. Jim doesn't like today's wacky wrestling bullshit because it's different from the wacky wrestling bullshit that was popular in his day, He's not the target audience for sure, and on that point it's fair that it doesn't appeal to him, but it really amuses me when old timers act like pro wrestling was SERIIOUS BUSINESS ONLY in their day and not just as full of wacky bullshit.

Guess we found Drake's PWO account.

For those lucky enough to not know what this is in reference to, Drake posted a group photo of all the NXT refs throwing up three fingers (cause, you know...refs count to three) and he made sure to hold his hand in a way not at all natural if someone was just putting up three fingers and precisely the way one would for throwing up the "what do you mean it's a white supremacist signal?" OK gesture.

Normally once you find out you stop, but medically it probably wouldn't cause much harm in the first trimester assuming the mother isn't doing like Jeff Hardy shit off ladders or whatnot.

Yeah Lee is far from dead, I'd say. things have definitely been less than stellar so far, but we've seen people bounce back from worse things than a bumpy start.

Until recently, it seemed like every NXT signee class was the same bunch of interchangeable white dudes. Strangely enough, they have a much better record of diversity when it comes to signing women, even if you still have to get the standard WWE Upgrades to get a push.

I would say it's a strong possibility considering WWE's history with the show and I would assume Bad Bunny is down for it too.

"The brand is the star" is low key one of the more damaging things to happen to wrestling. Not only did it make the largest promotion just a collection of interchangeable cogs, it caused a whole generation of indy wrestlers to train themselves into thinking that is the Way Things Are instead of it being the star based business it always was.

I always think back to the video of MVP, (and...wasn't it Shad Gaspard too? } tearing up watching Kofi win the title at Mania. It wasn't so much for Kofi himself but for what the moment meant.

Junkyard Dog drew tons of black fans (especially kids) to Mid South because A: kids saw someone who looked like them on TV and B: he was charismatic as hell. Watts' attempt to push other black wrestlers as the new JYD after he left and all of them flopping to one degree or another shows how important the second part is, but it doesn't negate the first. Look at the social media of pretty much any wrestler not a cis white guy and you'll see examples of how representation matters, but it does require a little more effort from the promotion than "here's a minority wrestler, please come to our show".

Xavier Woods will almost certainly get a run at some point unless some kind of major fallout happens, he's a good company guy and his gaming interests probably opened a lot of doors for WWE that no one else would have had the knowledge/ability to open.

Every era has old farts saying the youngin's can't work and will ruin the business. Dave mentions people even said it about Harley Race back in the day. The only difference is now the old farts can beat everyone over the head with their opinions on social media and podcasts.

With Vince being such a control freak, I'm waiting for it to come out that WWE is going to start demanding women wrestlers in line for a push submit their sexual history so the company can know if there's a chance they'll get pregnant.

Or Charlotte is put in the match instead so she can win her 708709809th title.

Where can I sign a petition to have a show on the network where Omos gives fashion guidance?

Shana is good at bending body parts and Lana is very bendy, which makes me think Shayna is going to attempt to tie her up like a pretzel.

Apparently Alexa was watching Fullmetal Alchemist while she was off TV.

Also if that's the case, then a hearty thanks to Mr. Lacey for putting an end to this storyline.
