C.S.

Speaking of Justin, does anyone else think Sammy Guevara looks like a brunette Justin Bieber when Justin was a teen?

I'm perfectly calm, but thanks for your concern.

What would Cornette have to rant about? There was nothing particularly offensive about the Spears match.

I have a feeling Cutler will get the "upset" tonight. Spears is way more over than the ice cold PAC though.

Has Nyla Rose appeared on Dynamite at all since losing to Riho? Has Sonny Kiss ever appeared outside of AEW Dark? Shawn Spears has barely appeared either. It feels weird that they have all of this talent on the backburner.

None of the AEW women have a drop of personality. Britt Baker has a great backstory but hasn't put all of the pieces together yet.

VIRGIL!!!

It cannot be overstated how bad the Dark Order gimmick is!

Cody is fucking fire on the mic. We saw zero evidence of this in WWE.

Okay, maybe that was a bridge too far.

Yeah, really don't know what the fuck they were thinking with that! PAC is the geekiest geek in all of geekdom. Even Seth Rollins is more tolerable.

No one watching NXT? Mauro is showing Excalibur how it's done.

AEW is starting with PAC. Good way to get me to switch to NXT, which I just did.

Yeah, as much as I like Dynamite, I have zero desire to watch the PPV. I'd be more excited to watch the NXT PPV (if I still had a Network subscription).

I feel embarrassed for all involved...

Damien Sandow returns to WWE... https://streamable.com/zgckf

That Indian Guy > Seth Fun Fact: Seth defeated Jinder to become the first NXT Champion.

It's a genuine apology.

A little too dry, because it came across as a genuine apology to me. Maybe he got worked by his Seth-hating tabloid sources? Not impossible. I can see some corners of WWE wanting to make Rollins look bad.

Agreed, but since I don't read TMZSheet or watch WWE Backstage, it won't affect me any. His credibility is his own business. Speaking of which...

I never put much stock in him as a reporter, TBH - he was never, ever going to be credible in my eyes because he had that tabloid TMZ stink attached to him - but I have zero issues with this and think he'll be fine as a talking head for a kayfabe show.

Which was exactly my point.

Interesting story from Pat McAfee about Smackdown: https://www.wrestlinginc.com/news/2019/11/pat-mcafee-talks-chaotic-day-heading-into-wwe-smackdown-on-661766/ What blows my mind is that he was given a few hours notice to be on SD, yet had to arrange for his own fucking plane. Jesus Christ, this company can't get their shit together enough to get their guys a plane? It is the epitome of bush league that he had to do all of that on his own.

"Rah Rah" Rollins What was the joke? I'm not watching Raw, but I'm glad Asuka could get in there with a superior worker and character like Cattie. Sounds like a beneficial arrangement for both of them. I think any talk of an Asuka singles push is a pipe dream for now, as long as she's in a tag team. In WWE, the best tag team wrestler is positioned as inferior next to the worst singles wrestler. That's how it is and has always been. Remember Edge and Christian losing to the Undertaker in a handicap match on a random Raw or SD years ago? And there are countless other examples, I'm sure. (Braun and literally a toddler defeating Sheamus and Cesaro is the most glaring one.)
