C.S.

He doesn't look that much different to me. He was never exactly a "body guy."

KoR's stock sure has dropped like a rock - teaming with a green Cal Beverly against the Neo-Nazis.

Prediction: Pete Dunne turns on NXT 0.0 and joins 2.0.

I hope Mauro Ranallo returns and replaces the leaving Beth Phoenix. This snoozefest could have used his awesome energy.

This is a train-wreck.

Remember when WarGames didn't "need" weapons and garbage cans to be "extreme"? Pepperidge Farm remembers. So does PWO.

I'm a bit late to the party, but I started a thread since no one else has yet. NXT War Games: TakeOver Has Been Taken Over

WarGames Match: Raquel Gonzalez, Io Shirai, Cora Jade and Kay Lee Ray vs. Dakota Kai and Toxic Attraction (Mandy Rose, Gigi Dolin and Jacy Jayne) Hair vs. Hair Match: Cameron Grimes vs. Duke Hudson NXT Tag Team Championship Match: Imperium (Fabian Aichner and Marcel Barthel) (c) vs. Kyle O’Reilly and Von Wagner NXT Cruiserweight Championship Match: Roderick Strong (c) vs. Joe Gacy WarGames Match: Team Black & Gold (Tommaso Ciampa, Johnny Gargaano, Pete Dunne and LA Knight) vs. Team 2.0 (Bron Breakker, Carmelo Hayes, Grayson Waller and Tony D’Angelo)

Count me among the Jinder and Eva fans.

The barrier-breaking smash hit that has taken reality television by storm, Rhodes to the Top, has been renewed for a second season.

Janela has been an underwhelming signing for AEW, and that's putting it nicely, so it's good to see him regaining some of his previous indie cred and buzz with this match. I'm guessing Tony Khan can't wait to get rid of him, but it also wouldn't surprise me if he keeps a few of these early signings around for Dark and pays them per appearance.

Surprised no one is talking about Ridge Holland losing his main roster debut match in three minutes and then losing again in a battle royal the same night. Looks like yet another NXT call-up has been double-Krossed. How long before Ridge faces the Wrath of Khan?

Back at $4.99 again. This seems to drop every few months.

As stupid as the angle was, it reminded me about Red Notice, and I watched it (and Disney+'s Jungle Cruise, which doesn't help Netflix or WWE, but still).

Agreed. I meant there have been worse moments, but top to bottom, WWE has never been this bad and dull. Even the mid-'90s - when every character had a side job - was more entertaining than this.

So, like, you don't remember when a guy actually hatched out of an egg at Survivor Series? In other words, this is nothing new, and it's been much worse.

The HBO show The Newsroom actually referenced Rock's announcement (and I think, but could be wrong, made a joke about Triple H in the process). If you're not familiar with it, it starred Jeff Daniels and featured a bunch of other big names - such as Sam Waterson and Jane Fonda. I never really took to the show though, because it was so hamfisted, clumsy, and thought it was way smarter than it really was. A pity, because Jeff Daniels is amazing and the rest of the great was great too. Maybe I'll give it another chance one day.

It was Rikishi. He did it... ...for The Rock!

Hell of a match.

This egg angle is totally atrocious WrestleCrap, but I can't lie, it's put Red Notice at the top of my list just so I can complete this insanity.

And here I was thinking we'd get a Jeff Hardy-Austin Theory finale, with Austin being the sole survivor. So much for building young talent.

Teamwork from Jeff and Sheamus a year after that horrid drinking and driving storyline, or whatever it was, between them. Edit: Well, Sheamus attacked Hardy afterward, so I guess it's fine.

Why is Theory favoring his back? Did I miss something?

Booker T comes across as someone who talks just to hear the sound of his own voice.

Pretty sure Cody is playing the AEW audience like a fiddle and knows exactly what he's doing. Maybe that wasn't the case during the Ogogo promo - probably not, since the one episode of the reality show I did watch made that out to be an awesome moment - but he has since adjusted and course-corrected.
