I'm guessing goodhelmet booked that segment with the Librarians and Mox, lol.

It was basically taking part of Undertale and replacing Sans (the main character Kenny was dressed as) with Kenny in the game.

Ricky Morton, great worker or greatest worker.

Meeting him on the runway as he was exiting a private plane.

I'm almost certain Tony did that same bit that opened the show with Ric Flair in like 1985.

One day I'll be able to think about that injury happening and not reflexively cross my legs. Today was not that day.

I know almost all the folks in NXT are young folks who think they have the world by the balls, but how many times are they going to get swayed by Uncle Paul having a rah-rah meeting every time it becomes clear that what they are being promised doesn't match reality? I get they all feel they're going to change the world and reinvent WWE...and hell, maybe someone there will, but the reality is NXT is nothing more than a wrestler storage facility at this point to try to keep folks away from AEW. You're lucky to even get on the Florida loop these days unless you had some kind of name on the indies.

I doubt Charlotte was shooting on her, and I also doubt someone who was a MP in the Marine Corps couldn't handle herself.

People complained about the spot where Mox interfered in a match right in front of the ref and there was no DQ, so the following week they made sure the ref was not in a position to look stupid on interference spots.

I'm actually kind of worried about the safety of the women. Not sure I'd trust WWE security if someone devoted to the cause and upset the government allowed womenfolk in decided to take one for the team. I suppose that's part of why the chose who they did for the match too. Have a Marine and a Dungeon trainee in there in case shit goes down.

The Washington Nationals won to force a game seven, so both shows are going to get killed this week most likely.

I wouldn't be surprised if WWE had a Vince hologram ready to run the company after he dies at this point.

Dave Lagana did an interview with Meltzer and said that between the numbers they've been getting on YouTube and the money they save taping at a TV station that has production on site, this model isn't as non self sustaining as they originally thought. Basically TV is still the end goal but the current plan of doing a taping cycle leading to a PPV won't be the end of the world if they don't immediately get picked up by someone.

If somehow Vince could be convinced to just handle the business side and gladhand investors and Saudi princes, WWE might be in a better state creatively. Unfortunately there's no evidence in the 74 years Vince has been alive there's any way that would ever happen.

It doesn't count because if the people getting good live reactions aren't the ones who fit in the company's narrow view of who can be a star they just get turned into cannon fodder for whoever is the flavor of the month.

Because the company thinks playing keep away with what the fans want is the path to success because.....reasons. Meanwhile part of the reason the new competitors are doing as well as they are is because the fans are listened to and them being invested usually will pay off.

Yeah when it looked like Rusev was finally going to get the upper hand people were into it and chanting "Rusev Day", but once again the fans were rewarded by having him get chumped out in the end. Again. I mean, at some point WWE has to be all "we've been eating so much shit for you guys can you at least do this for us?" I assume. That just makes it all the more hilarious when the Prince says no since he's Lashley and Vince is Rusev in this scenario.

As much as it pains me to say it as a Steelers fan, my team's having a subpar year and the Dolphins are doing the most obvious tank job in sports history so this should have been an easy week for Raw. Instead we got a show long build for the babyface getting humiliated again, and I'm sure there's people at WWE just dumbfounded that this shit didn't draw. (also did anyone see Jerry Lawler facepalming when Lana was doing the "Rusev's a sex addict" stuff? Dude looked legit embarrassed to be there)

I'm comparing it to Dreamer/Raven/Beulah because the same guy that did that is (probably) responsible for this. But yes, the main issue with anything WWE does is they've done such a good job making sure no one cares about their characters, it's weird when they do something that requires anyone to do so.

IIRC Khali is still living off the fame he got in India for being champ, so he's doing better than Seth.

Yeah I doubt that the match is going to go the full 60, this is definitely going to lead to an angle of some sort.

Isn't Jimmy doing an interview for Starrcast? I seem to recall seeing something being promoted as his first wrestling appearance in years.

Most Americans think all Germans sound like Arnold these days, and I only know the difference because I took 4 years of German in high school and they pointed out the difference between how German sounds in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland.

To a lot of folks in the US, South America = Spanish, so anything set anywhere there is going to sound Spanish-like in a Hollywood movie. I doubt most Americans (me included to be honest) would recognize a Portuguese accent if a gun was pointed to our heads. It's still real to me, dammit!

Which was always funny to me since she grew up in Latvia when it was still part of the USSR. You'd think she'd be better at the accent than that. It's a shame Uncle Ivan isn't around to teach folks how to properly be fake Russian.
