Matt D

Is that the name of the local hospital?

Either that or the wellness policy got his pick. He hit a .8 on the Nikki Bella Forearm scale tonight though.

Am I the only one who kind of wants to see Joe vs Orton?

Could be why Corbin didn't win the belt?

Matches are way better if no one's ever seen them before though!

I was talking to Pete about this, but you almost have to release an addendum based on the footage we've gotten from the Dibiase/Doc vs Freebirds feud, including two (maybe even three) of the very best Michael Hayes singles matches ever.

The Cory stuff can grow old, but hearing it in a different setting was funny. I laughed as hard as I had for a while at Mike's Gannosuke joke. Also, I literally just broke out laughing while crossing K street here in DC to the out of nowhere Paul Stanley impression. I don't think i have any real idea who Mike is since I'm not on twitter, but he's been a good guest so far. Also, I think Kris is going to hunt down those old PR tapes he has.

We can't even define casual fans in a social media world.

This made me want to hear a longform podcast on the Fantastics.

Can they name more than two cruiserweights? Can they differentiate between Fandango, Breeze and Hawkins? It's tough in 2017.

I still think it's more of a center/periphery thing.

This is a company that gets away with the Moolah stuff too. Let alone, you know, the independent contractor stuff. No one cares outside of us.

You think they'd jump at that because it lets them highlight Austin again. I'm not convinced Vince has any idea what the Dangerous Alliance is though.

The only way to induct Davey is as part of a broader 97 Hart Foundation. It lets Bret and Neidhart do a speech and lets them sneak Owen, Davey, and Pillman in without actually having to deal with the fact Owen, Davey, and Pillman all died in tragic ways.

He can do the jobs that AJ can't.

Just think about all the fun you'll have watching Rollins vs Wyatt and Rollins vs Ziggler

I feel like, past Becky and Naomi, Smackdown's women's scene shifted back into "Catty women" who were all basically heels anyway.

I think he'll have more legs than that in that role. I guess we'll just have to see.

Tye's going to be the Smackdown Sami Zayn, solid worker with an unbreakable connection to the crowd who they can use to put over new heels.

I do think this could probably work, but the key would be that at least a chunk of the results from night 1 would lead into night 2. I'm thinking things like HHH vs Bryan or Mankind vs Big Show or Bret vs Owen/Luger vs Yokozuna.

It wasn't just that Nakamura debuted with the Miz. It's that he debuted in Cena's slot, basically. We'll see if they keep him there, but that's how the slotted him.

We see Roman every week and Vince rarely.

Ziggler is better than Rollins, but man is it ever close. They're quite similar in a lot of ways but Rollins is somehow a lot more ambitious.

Rollins might be the worst heavily pushed guy in a decade.

Does Lesnar have enough dates that they can really do things with him? I wouldn't mind a mini feud with the New Day, for instance. Him vs Big E would be fun.
