C.S.

To be fair, so did everyone else. That hashtag is trending for a reason.

Stephanie just posted her condolences.

Me neither. WTF? Wasn't Meltzer coy a couple of weeks ago about why Brodie Lee wasn't on TV? Understandable considering medical/privacy issues. But no one expected anything like this.

I am speechless right now...

Warrior had much better matches than Bray Wyatt. Whether that's all down to the magic of Pat Patterson really doesn't matter. Taker was presented that way right out of the gate and had a look and aura no version of Wyatt has ever had. Sure, you can argue that The Fiend was a refresh and has been presented as a monster since then, but you can't just take a magic eraser to the history of Bray Wyatt. Plus, Bray lost to Goldberg decisively, which would've never happened with The Undertaker. To make the direct comparison I can think of, when Undertaker lost the WWF Title back to Hulk Hogan in a rematch, it was under a cloud of controversy and the title ended up being vacated. Maybe an even better comparison: 1990 Undertaker never would've lost to 2015 Undertaker - but Bray Wyatt did, at WrestleMania 31.

Thanks, but I meant AEW TV, since Rip mentioned Bostic being shorted after he "worked TV for AEW." AEW TV footage of him won't prove whether he was shorted, but it will at least prove that he did indeed work for AEW at some point, since even that seems to be in question.

It turns out we're actually following each other on Twitter, which is a surprise. Anyway, if he worked TV, there must be footage somewhere - even if just Dark. I'd be interested in seeing one of his matches.

What an absolutely tremendous recap, @The Thread Killer. Thank you! I read it in Cornette's voice at times, so you did a really great job of capturing him. Count me in as another one here who would love a catch-all recap thread from you about various personalities, podcasts, etc.

I came in here to ask for the same thing - one of TTK's epic recaps.

That is probably the case, or he probably only heard about the Trump supporter part and not this...

Oh, Mick...

He must be pissed that she's "slumming it" with Andrade.

All of you shitting on this PPV, but didn't even watch it...amazing. It was actually a good show, people.

This show over-delivered IMO. Every match was good.

Well, I guess I'll eat my words, lol.

Agreed, but Bray is wearing only a dingy wifebeater under his jacket. They should both be covered properly to sell the stip.

Speaking of which, Orton is clearly losing since he's completely covered.

Because he's the Head of the Table, and if the Head of the Table wears a wrist support to avoid carpal tunnel, wearing a wrist support to avoid carpal tunnel is cool. BELIEVE THAT!

God, at least let Charlotte be the one to turn - she's an abysmal babyface.

WTF??? The Inferno match is the main event?!

Great carry-job by Carmella. The second-generation veteran wrestler expertly led the Star Wars celebrity to a good match.

Here comes Mella to steal the show!!!

Drew vs. AJ (vs. Miz) was actually an excellent, hard-hitting, intelligent match with great selling. Best TLC match in years?
