There was also the "alternative" comedy scene in the mid 90s with Bob Odenkirk, David Cross, Janeane Garofalo, etc. that kind of blended into the music scene. It was def. part of the culture until 97/98 or so.

Rey v Dom seems like a lock as well or Rey/Edge v Balor/Dom

Probably getting an Edge match as well. Most likely against Balor I would assume

I guess it all depends if they get Rock. If not looks like Roman v Cody. Sami/KO v Usos Rhea v Bianca seem likely a Cena match. Logan Paul?

Apparently wwe employees were told Vince will have no creative power and everything will remain status quo in terms of Hunter running things

According to WSJ Vince is planning on coming back to the company

What the hell. Charlotte beats Ronda in less than a minute. Did Ronda not re-sign??

It's on the 11/16/96 show hosted by Robert Downey Jr. the "Shaq Plaque" sketch

Mike Tenay announced Don West has passed away at 59. loved his enthusiasm and willingness to learn the business. also there was an SNL sketch about him in 1996 with Will Ferrell and Chris Kattan. RIP

JJ Dillon is in that segment on All American as well from 93. His only on screen appearance from from his 89-96 run.

I do think his 2008 heel run was a lot different than his Y2J run which was different from the late 90s wcw heel run. I mean I could see not liking his aging rock star gimmick but I think he was pretty good at reinventing himself until the 2016 heel run (not many here liked it but seemed to get a bunch of praise)

Reports Ricochet might have been injured at the tapings tonight. (They are taping next week's show tonight)

Wasn't Cena supposed to return on Dec. 30. I assume hope is Owen's partner?

When they all got called up in summer 2015 it felt like Becky was third on the depth chart behind Charlotte and Sasha. She basically just put people over and almost all her promos were comedic or cutesy. Iirc Sasha didn't get much promo time but didn't lose that much and had the hot potato title run with Charlotte in 2016.

Latest Observer says Dynamite/Rampage are getting a new look, set, aesthetic, design, etc. starting in January.

Just came here to post that. Fightful reporting Mandy Rose has been released.

Per Observer site Riddle is in rehab after failing a second drug test.

It started in early August. a bunch of never ending feuds

They've been feuding since July!

John Cena is scheduled to appear on the 12/30 edition of Smackdown. Would guess he'll be in the Rumble to set up a Mania program. Against Theory probably.

Drew McIntyre has been "medically disqualified" and will miss SD and the tag title match on Friday

Eric Young is leaving Impact and is headed back to WWE

I mean Ronda has lost a ton of luster off her star power over the last five or six years. She was attached to a bunch of big movies including a Roadhouse remake and big time comedy with Tina Fey. All of them were dropped. she hosted SNL in 2016 and the thought of here hosting again seems improbable given how far she's fallen. .

Just announced that the first hour of .Raw will be commercial free and Becky Lynch will open the show.

Wwe rehired Brian Kendrick. I assume at least in part as a favor to Ronda.
