Should be interesting for WWE to potentially go from having Vince's BFF as President to having someone very much interested in wrecking their shit in a position of power (Yang will almost certainly end up getting some role in Biden's administration should he win).

Internet sleuths have already figured out the woman that keeps getting shown on SD is Carmella.

Now if it's ten minutes of him tossing Marko around, that actually sounds pretty good.

I mean, it's fair if you don't like how he was presented or the pairing with Kip, that's all subjective. However, the crowd was chanting "Miro Day" and popped big for the guy (well at least as big as a crowd of 300 or so can pop) so to say it was a misfire seems just patently wrong. As opposed to the previously mentioned Dark Order beatdown from last year where you had an arena full of fans collectively going "wtf?" in unison.

At the very least, Sara Stock and Serena Deeb would be great as producers for the women's division. I would love to see Sara as the female version of Dustin Rhodes and be a player/coach to give the young folks someone to work with.

It's not like he was sitting in the office with Vince till 3 AM every day, at least not at this point. He was the guy who'd go to amateur wrestling meets to scout for talent. Obviously not a job he can do right now, but it's not like WWE is in a state where it can't afford to keep a guy around who set the dominoes in motion for Vince to win the war in 1984.

Yeah looks like a lot of the furloughed people are getting the official word now that they got the axe.

Sara Stock getting released too. Looks like WWE saw the backlash they got trying to steal the wrestler's side hustles and thought "you know what we need to do now to get better PR? More pandemic cuts in a year we made record levels of profits!"

Snowden's Twitter antics do match his behavior on a myriad of message boards dating back decades, and that's just ones I've personally witnessed. I suppose he has matured in the sense it took him longer to blow up in Twitter than it used to back then, so there's that.

Wanted to mention seeing Tay Conti get overwhelmed with emotion coming out for her first match after being officially signed was a nice little real moment. A lot of people assumed she wasn't going to stick with wrestling after getting released, but she stuck with it and ended up in a better position for herself as a result. In a business that sometimes seems like an endless world of shit, it was really touching seeing someone have a good moment.

I don't see Miro sticking around with Sabian. In fact that whole segment was like one neon sign advertising him being the one to destroy the wedding.

Thunder Rosa defending the NWA title on AEW TV is an interesting development.

I mean, this isn't Zack Ryder saying he's upset his action figure efed didn't get him a WWE Main Event push, this is the dude who was told entire arenas chanting form him was the crowd mocking him. If anyone's allowed to cut a "shove the brass ring up your ass" Miro IHMO.

I guess we've all turned heel on AEW? Suddenly Miro cutting the same promo others have done is LOLTNA stuff?

For a sport where nearly everyone is in gear that looks like underwear, there's something unnerving about Jake Hager's gear where every time I think he just came out on national TV in his boxer briefs.

I mean, it wouldn't be my first choice but it does seem he works best when he has someone annoying to play off of.

The best part is they can work Twitch into it and it won't be just a WWE dig.

Also holy shit!

I thought the Matt promo was pretty much what needed to be said. Let everyone know he's okay and apologize to his family for scaring the hell out of them.

Snowden is a good writer, he also tends to get very stubborn in his opinions and doesn't handle it well if the majority of people disagree with him. I get the feeling he's only on social media because it's basically how writers get pub these days (see also: Meltzer, Dave) and his personality just isn't a good fit for it. Also I wonder how it went over for a Bleacher Report staff writer to spread false information about the owner of AEW when they're all supposed to be part of the Turner family?

The reasoning (at least as how I understand it) is that anyone who got fired over it was probably not some innocent lamb caught in the murky waters of social media. The idea is the companies involved looked into it enough to determine there was sufficient smoke to the fire and cut ties. Which is why folks like Riddle and Marty were still listed (despite it looking more like all parties involved will die of old age before ROH concludes their investigation).

Becky Lynch is probably about to get a ton of dummies spewing hate at the wrong person since a soccer player name Rebecca Quin came out publicly transgender.

MJF is much better now and has a much higher ceiling than Dream, I wouldn't think they are comparable at all other than "young dudes each company sees as a potential superstar".

Well it's true in the sense that it takes someone with the talent level of Benoit, Guerrero, Danielson, and Asuka to outshine typically counterproductive WWE booking. If you have GOAT level talent you will rise to the top, even in WWE.

They were trying to not rank people who quit/got fired for #SpeakingOut reasons.
