He certainly did not look great in that match even with Ciampa working or two and leading him through everything. Fucking Mamalukes gimmick in 2022 lmao.

Sucks that Ciampa goes out with a dud putting over a dude who sucks

You can definitely tell which talents have worked in front of actual crowds and which are PC talent

Why is NXT 2.0 so horny? This shit seems wildly immature and childish.

Gonna lol hard if Cody isn't Seth's opponent and the crowd shits all over whoever the surprise is and the match and probably the rest of the show after

100% positive that Taker will be doing the conservative motivational speaker circuit at churches

Tuned into SD to see Charlotte's worst outfit and hear an absolutely dreadful promo from her, too

Hoping for Ronda vs Charlotte to turn into an absolute shit show, like Goldberg/Brock from WM 20 but with more shooting or attempted shooting

I tried to watch the GCW shows because some of the matches looked interesting on paper but man I just can not do GCW. The entire vibe and look and sound and feel is just gross. To me these WM weekend shows and dream matches usually don't deliver because everyone is working so many shows and matches in a day or two that no one goes all out and delivers the matches they would on a regular show. Bloodsport sucks. Every time I try to watch those shows and they're just boring trash of people who don't do shootstyle doing really shitty shootstyle.

I recall the WM 26 match being surprisingly sloppy and bad the last time I watched it. From both guys, both in execution and structure. It's also the point to me where he really hit the point of no return in terms of aging and breaking down. I think it probably would have been a good send off point for him to retire with HBK that night. Pretty sure that was the last year he worked a "full" schedule and everything he did after was all smoke and mirrors designed to hide his breakdown.

Bryan not doing a WM week tour of weird dream matches makes him a fraud and a coward.

Everyone who joins the BCC should have to do battle with each member first.

1. Why are Vince's lips always purple/blue now? 2. Lol no reason to tune into Raw to see if Cody debuts

I'm not sure how BPJ can engender any type of passionate response in any direction.

Yes.

Theory: No selling is completely valid if a person takes a horrible bump and is actually able to get up and continue like nothing happened. How can you complain it isn't realistic if the person really is able to get up and continue? Checkmate, marks.

This Sammy/Tay thing sucks on screen. Sammy is such an unlikable dude, and it makes Tay less likeable by extension. Eventually they might make a good heel power couple, but it's never going to work with Sammy as a face. I have to imagine Sammy/Tay is a replacement for Cody/Brandi in this angle, which is also lol.

Al Snow being such an angry DON'T EXPOSE THE BUSINESS guy when his only successful run was as a comedy guy and has spent most of the past 15 years doing shoots exposing every aspect of the business is lol. Cornette making his living off of doing the same thing while complaining about all the new crew not protecting the business, too.

Luckily for Cody, WWE booking is such that Codyverse will be a thing there too

Yes.

Would love to have Regal slap Sting again

It also was a direct catalyst for both the HBK/Batista feud and then Jericho/HBK.

Jericho continuing his tradition of "reinventing" himself by just outright taking someone else's gimmick and/or look/nickname. Boy the Hardys look bad. Matt looks ancient and fat and like he can barely move, Jeff is slow as hell and looks to be in absolute agony with every bump.

All natty dawg

I don't know if this is a hot take or not, but Jericho to me is basically the original version of Dolph Ziggler. Hyped as this great worker who was clearly a level below the actual great workers that were his contemporaries, solid dependable performer who once in a while would have a great performance or feud and otherwise is 25 years of making me groan whenever I see him.
