Clearly he fell out of favor, probably because he was very openly a Cody Guy, but he hasn't been setting the world on fire in WWE either. If I didn't know better it almost feels like when Vince would sign someone from the competition and then job them to to prove that this guys were better.

I wonder if Ricky Stark-Saints is second guessing his choices now that he's jobbing to the LFG winner on NXT TV.

It is wild to me that NXT barely was able to sell out tiny ass Center Stage and TNA is having their biggest house in ten tears tonight. That's not how I expected this partnership to work.

Is my recency bias showing or was that one of the all time blowoffs in wrestling history? My kneejerk reaction to thinking that was to think I'm overrating it, but I can't think of too many occasions where a feud ender hit perfectly on practically every note.

Thinking on it, I'm realizing the reason the fans are warming up to Charlotte is they are flipping the script on the tired old WWE "tag team partners who don't get along" trope. Instead of a team you know is going to implode, you're waiting for them to admit they like each other.

So its looking like the Bash show was a flop so their big idea to counter program All In fell on its face. Yet they will still keep fucking that chicken and continue doing it.

I see that apparently Charlotte's Players Tribune article managed to finally get her a babyface reaction. Call me skeptical, and believe me I'm sure growing up with Ric Flair as your dad was no picnic, I find it very convenient that she decided to write that after all the rumors/grumbling of her big timing people.

She won, so I guess it wasn't a total waste, but a battle royale was the best thing they could come up with for Vaquer?

WWE using a Katy Perry song for the Evolution hype video after she's been Internet Villain #78908908 for being out of touch with her rocket ship trip is just peak WWE.

Take it how you will, but Bryan Alvarez mentioned that he heard the last 40 minutes of SNME were changed because there was a segment that had to be scrapped. The implication was that the plan was for Goldberg to win the title and for Seth to do the cash in. While that makes this suck even more for Seth if that was the case, it's also impressive that Gunther was told at the last second he's going to have extra time added to his match with BILL GOLDBERG and was able to go out there and make it work. Also to be fair, kudos to Goldberg for being okay with going out with a straight loss. He probably could have that-doesn't-work-for-me-brother'd the idea, but he was okay with taking one for the team.

Mox's best match anywhere that I've seen IMO. Him panicking over his impending death after eight months of him leaving bodies in his wake was the perfect capper to this storyline.

By the way, I assume everyone has seen the Players Tribune short film on the Briscoe family but if for some reason you haven't you need to watch it immediately. Easily one of the best wrestling related things I've ever seen. It's sometimes hard to separate Mark from his more goofy TV persona, but the way he stepped up for his family is remarkable. Him talking about the day Jay died and there's a moment where he just stops mid sentence and it's clear he's reliving it in his mind was heartbreaking. It should also not be overlooked how badass Jay's girls are for how they've recovered from their (serious) injuries. The older girl even seemed to be channeling Jay when she was talking about being told she would have a difficult road to recovery and her response was basically "fuck that, I'm not letting my dad down".

So Adam Cole got hurt taking a lariat in the six man on Collision, and it sounds like it might legit be a career ender but like he said in his promo he isn't in the right head space to make that decision at the moment.

Starting SNME now that All In is over, and I'll say one thing Jelly Roll has lost a ton of weight but he looks like he's in the trap of "still wearing fat guy sized clothes even though you are significantly smaller now" that often comes with that kind of weight loss. Source: I did the same thing when I dropped 80 lbs.

That match was everything it needed to be times a hundred. The Death Riders vanquished, Hangman is redeemed, Danielson avenging the end of his career....everything was perfection.

Women's gauntlet was a million times better, and the absolute correct winner.

Juice came back looking like nWo Sting.

Stacking the odds against Hangman by taking out some of his backup, making it much more glorious when he beats the odds.

The way that crowd JUMPED when Joe hooked in the muscle buster.

Cash dropping f bombs on that fan, what was going on there?

lol holy shit the Outrunners with the Newport themed gear

Ishii and Archer having an excellent clubbering exchange right after a luchador spot is peak AEW.

The WAR random six man generator is in awe of this grouping of Hologram, Ishii, Kyle O'Reily, and Big Boom AJ.

I could be off base, but to me it looked like maybe Dustin wasn't going full speed in a preshow match knowing he had a bigger match later in the show

Them Rhodes genes are strong, three generations looking identical.
