Well okay then

Johnny truly the greatest babyface ever, trying to get rid of Mauro for the people.

That was a very appropriate ending for a tournament honoring Dusty, gotta give them that.

LOLRODDY

AOP being down here as long as they have is the best evidence possible that Vince doesn't follow NXT.

Wow EC3's NXT music sucks.

Alvarez just tweeted that Impact fired Alberto.

Nice of Vince to let Mauro wear one of his jackets tonight.

Wow I feel dumb that it just now hit me they are introducing the North American title in the heart of Mid South territory.

I don't hate her, but they did her no favors in the Asuka feud booking wise. She came off as someone who can't win the big one until her main foe was gone.

Just pretend she's a Guerrero who Americanized her name

Apparently Alberto no showed the Impact/LU show yesterday despite being in NOLA, so we could be seeing another round of wacky hijinx from him.

I just love how the Clusterfuck battle royale/whatever at the Spring Break show had an invisible man win and get cheered by a building full of people who would be shit-their-pants livid if it was done anywhere else.

This is the first year since they brought the HOF back where I've had zero intresest in watching it. Normally there's at least one, and I guess the little dude getting the Warrior Award seems like he'd be an entertaining speech to listen to, but there's nothing with that OMGMUSTWATCH appeal.

Unless he runs into a judge that wants to make an example, I would be shocked if someone with Conor's wealth gets any significant punishment over this. What will be telling is if UFC puts any pressure on the people injured to not sue his ass off over it.

Man, I'm at the point where I just want him to get his crowning moment already so we can get past it. Like others have stated, it's been frustrating to see WWE pass on better potential stories/pushes because everything was written for Roman vs Brock.

It really is amazing that a guy can damage property, injure people, ruin a PPV card, get arrested by the NYPD, and there's still people who will be all "lol its all staged". Not even Bill Watts would stick this close to kayfabe if it was a work.

The top pitcher in the rotation is called the ace, which seems a more direct comparison than the tennis term.

My issue with Roman has always been how he's booked like a square peg in a round hole. He was supposed to be the next great babyface, but everything about the guy screams heel charisma. In any other company in any other era they would have turned him heel and made bank, then when he started getting cool heel face reactions turn him back and become the hero. Vince on the other had pretty much turns into the world's oldest toddler when fans don't react the way he wants them to and has a tantrum needing to prove he knows what they want better than they do.

The spot calling thing reminded me of my favorite kayfabulous moments watching as a kid. One guy had his opponent in a rear chin lock and was obviously calling spots, and Jesse without missing a beat was all "see that Gorilla, he's talking trash while he has his man trapped in a hold! I used to do that when I wrestled". And just like that, 8 year old me was satisfied with that explanation rather than what was clearly going on.

He released a statement claiming a neck injury, but it doesn't appear he ever had any intention of showing up. It's not like he's someone who would get the benefit of the doubt. Waiting until the day before to cancel comes off as a bitch move designed to hurt the promoter. Also I saw it pointed out on Twitter the irony of Suzuki's gimmick being someone unprofessional and violent and Low Ki's gimmick being a professional but IRL they are the opposite.

I used to live in that area and I still go up there for doctor appointments, where he got hit was a known bad intersection for both cars and pedestrians. Absolutely horrible news for sure, but I wasn't surprised when I heard where it happened.

EC3 and Spud had some great interplay in TNA, often the best part of the show in the darkest part of the Dixie Era. I hope they get a chance to cross paths in WWE somehow.

From WO:
