...TG

Great crowd reactions for Solo tonight, getting Dominik-level heel heat.

What a wet fart of a "fight". OTOH, it got me to tune in so it probably worked on a few more folks than usual.

That damn song and Dusty at the end got to me.

Michael Cole kinda choking up. And it got a little dusty in here when Cody gave the belt to his mom.

Cena making sure to push his hair back over his bald spot after his cap fell off is why he's a star.

I'm 43, I'm guessing that's not too far off median age for the crowd. So how the hell did they know who this "Speed" fella was?

I totally buy that a) LA Knight drives that Slim Jim-themed car and b) he actually parks like that.

Got our first finisher spam match of the night. Hopefully the main will have a different structure.

Regular battle royals (battles royal?) are usually a snooze but tonight's was a lot of fun.

This segment was a hoot, especially Punk referencing Cornette's podcasts.

The King is at Smackdown tonight. Looking pretty good too:

Seth calling Rock "Mr. Midlife Crisis" while wearing a getup taken from The Matrix's estate sale and a man-bun was a hoot.

Too long of course, but Rock trying to make Solo break character was a hoot.

Tony needs to keep this BCC versus random CMLL guys series going indefinitely.

Fun match, AJ pushing 50 and still bumping like a madman.

Drew calling himself "DM Hunk" got a laugh from me.

Very sad story out of Portland, Billy Jack Haynes shot and killed his wife and had a standoff with police. (He's not named in the story but Jim Valley has confirmed it's him.)

We really need that Hechicero-Claudio singles match. And Moxley going to Arena Mexico and playing unhinged ugly American.

Bryan v Hechicero was a heck of a lot of fun. The poor referee was thoroughly confused during the finishing sequence, but no big deal, a fine match.

So jealous of Bryan Keith's serape. And I love the little kids in the front row, very wholesome atmosphere.

Loss (who rarely posts here anymore despite owning the place) has a theory that as long as business is strong, they're going to keep it on Roman indefinitely, until he beats Bruno's record. I wouldn't go that far, but since Hogan's record is in reach (I think around September?) Cody is smart to let Rock lose to him at Wrestlemania and wait until the fall to get his win back.

Seems like there's a backlash brewing...

"Don't worry about that sex trafficking investigation. Here's The Rock!"

Clips from an indy in Uganda have been making the rounds on twitter today. Great atmosphere, and that cross rhodes is really nasty.

I don't think they could have done more. It shouldn't be so out of the ordinary that we need to comment on the fact that tough questions are being asked. It's literally their job!
