C.S.

When was it confirmed that Smackdown lost Joe?

This is what it looks like when Vince writes your segment. *Groan*

Calling it now: Vince is promising SD's biggest acquisition ever, so cue... WELLLLLLLLLLLLL IT'S THE BIG SHOW!

To be fair to Wyatt (and trust me, I am no fan), I believe the gimmick was his brainchild. I wonder how the hell Rowan got back on TV before Harper though. Bryan must have specifically requested Rowan because no other explanation makes any sense (and I don't hate Rowan by any means - but Harper was always the better of the two).

That match was pretty horrible though, with cockroach effects or whatever the fuck that was. But yeah, I agree. Not sure why he didn't request his release then and there. If the writing was ever on the wall, it was after that.

A name absolutely matters, but as far as names go, Ivar and Erik are far less damaging than The Viking Experience. Sad news.

LOL, yeah, I see your point there.

So, if laying on the ground is non-news, why would TMZ Guy report that? Not that I believed the report in the first place, but let's not pretend it was meant to imply anything else other than a massive tantrum.

Yeah, not getting the hate about the Ivar/Erik part of it. Hanson and Rowe are atrocious names, but because they used them in ROH or wherever, people have to pretend they're awesome. The Viking Experience is a dreadful name though.

I wonder if calling them The Raiders (without the War part) was nixed because of the NFL team? "HO, HO, HO, PAL, we're bringing back the XFL, so we can't make ANY references to the No Fun League!"

Or The Viking Experience with yet another new and even worse name. Hey, I'd pop!

People are predicting Roman, and it could be, but my guess is Ronda. Even if she is taking time off, she's still employed by the company.

IMO, Sami Zayn would be a great challenger for Kofi - but I assume Zayn is officially on Raw now?

Imagine the internet reaction if Jinder moved over and immediately won the title from Kofi.

I could see Reigns, Drew, Corbin, and Lashley all moving over to SDL tomorrow.

Yeah, and not for the better.

I assume the mystery partner will be A.J. Styles.

Is EC3 in the doghouse? He has been a total nothing geek for weeks now.

EC3 is another massive geek.

This Sasha thing has to be a "twist" for an SD move, right? They did say tag teams would be broken up, and none have been yet. The only other realistic candidate for that would be stud Gable and geek Roode.

I wonder if this means Naomi to Raw too?

This company is WCW and has been for a while.

I hope Gable gets split from geek Roode.

Is that one restaurant with peanuts all over the floor still a thing? The Viking Experience can dine there.

As shitty as The Viking Experience name is, are we really pretending Hanson and Rowe are awesome names compared to Ivar and Erik? Same shit, different day there IMO.
