This was pretty unexpected, at least to me. Is this because NJPW are not happy with how their American expansion is turning out? This also makes me think - was it Meij who was resistant to partnering with AEW? If so, the two biggest non-WWE companies might actually start partnering.

What a piece of trash

Yeah, that account is a complete troll and really sad.

Let us all embrace the awesomeness of Paul Orndorff in the Nitro era. Mr. Wonderful indeed.

Are we just taking for granted that Rock is going to face Reigns at WM? What is his Hollywood schedule like? If fans do not return by then, I have a hard time believing Rock would be interested in a program.

Literally any type of badass heel run would have been better than what we got in those years.

lol are we really arguing that him turning heel and being badass like this wouldn't have helped him, as opposed to him being John Cena junior? Like, sure, the details/execution might have been different, but the basic concept wouldn't have applied? Come on.

This match just makes the fateful decision to go with heel Rollins instead of heel Reigns 5 years back so much more head-scratching. Has Rollins ever had a performance like this? This has to be one of the best "throwaway/B-PPV" feuds WWE has done in the past 10 years.

Amazing how simple booking done with talented workers can be so great. Almost as if we don't need stupid contrived shit like Retribution to arrest the business's downward slide.

Counterpoint: The names are cringy and trash and no one cares if they have a good Twitter game if their booking is cringy and trash

Per Meltzer, Brodie-Cassidy was a big ratings hit. Brodie-Dustin did really well in the quarters as well. This Brodie reign has clearly been a success. I know Cody just returned, but I would still keep the title on Brodie and ultimately have Hangman beat him for it.

Does anyone remember that crazy rumour from years ago when Roman was main eventing WM for the first time against Brock, about how Afa and Sika were furious that the finish got changed and wanted to beat up people backstage.

Is it even possible to be a top WWE guy without coming off as an overly defensive dork. At least Reigns isn't picking Twitter bitchfights like Rollins

It was always funny how wrestlers used to call him smart cuz he...*Gasp* read books. Talk about low standards

Extremely weird episode of Dynamite. I wouldn't call it bad, and I don't even blame them at all given Lance's test came out of nowhere, but it seemed extremely rushed, even the segments that had already been booked last week.

Kingston with the Kawada colours

I love Ryan Reynolds but that is just because I just shifted to Murrica (NYC - what a time to move from India to New York) and Reynolds' Mint Mobile has been a fucking lifesaver. Fuck T-Mobile and fuck AT&T, I have no idea how Murricans tolerate them

Matt is stumbling all over his words. He should not be on TV. He should be at home. He should be retired. Wtf Tony Khan. That said, Jericho saying "Happy birthday Matt! Who gives a shit" was amazing

Eww dark haired Cody. Oh fuck yeah a dog collar match! I was going to say shades of Piper-Valentine Starrcade 1983, but I think Dusty had not started booking JCP by then. That was still Dory's booking

Are the Roadies the bigest drawing tag team of the last 30 years? Who else is even in the conversation? RIP. A first ballot hall of famer.

The promos on the show have been excellent so far, but the matches have been meh. Hopefully this match changes that

Kingston is so fucking good on the mic, it is genuinely amazing

Fuck me, Miro is JACKED. Clearly not having to take wellness tests is working out for him.

Lance has COVID and hopefully recovers soon, but this match should be bonkers. Stunning how having a roster full of over characters not buried to death can help with booking your way out of unexpected potholes.
