WWE TV - 1/29 - 2/2 - BROCK PURDY IS THE HEAD OF THE TABLE

[C.S.]

I assume we aren't talking about actual desserts here? 

[NintendoLogic]

This was somehow even worse than brother @sek69 made it sound.

[Alucard]

I popped for the use of "Tell Me A Lie" ! 

[sek69]

NXT was a pretty fun show, and that Chase U angle in a vacuum was a harmless if not dated skit, but it's very telling it made TV without anyone how tone deaf it comes off as.

[Blehschmidt]

They fired that other guy, but Booker T has got to be one of the worst commentary guys of all time.

[NotJayTabb]

At least Booker sounds excited, something about Kevin Patrick made everything sound artificial and devoid of emotion.

Apparently the Smackdown commentary team is going to be Corey Graves and Wade Barrett, which is a pairing of two colour commentators. No idea how that'll work, assume Graves takes the lead.

[NintendoLogic]

As I recall, Graves was the de facto play-by-play man for Raw when they had Adnan Virk in the official role and he was in way over his head. So he has some experience in the role.

[sek69]

Yeah Graves is going to be the play by play man, which will probably be a good way to keep his tendency to want to be Bobby Heenan under control.

Speaking of Graves, I wonder if he's pushing for his bro Sam Adonis to get signed since he doesn't have a contract with AAA.

[TheDuke]

Every time I tune into NXT the last few months it feels like they are in the middle of a tournament. 

That Chase U video package made me wonder, what happened to the guy with the long blonde hair and bandana who was in Chase U?

He got fired for Wellness issues, iirc he got busted with coke.

[C.S.]

Logan Paul just took shots at CM Punk.

Another bleached blond "empty-headed dumb fuck."

Is this what Punk will stew over for the next six months?

 

[KawadaSmile]

Kevin Owens is super damn over. Remember when he won the US belt and wore a suit?

[KawadaSmile]

Elektra Lopez, respectfully.

Tiff and Naomi are on SmackDown now. Gimme Io vs Stratton.

[KawadaSmile]

Yeah that turn hitting like crack bubbas

[KawadaSmile]

Roman is just TORCHING Rollins. 

[KawadaSmile]

There ain't noooooo way

[C.S.]

Finish the story LATER maybe. 

*SIGH*

[KawadaSmile]

Cody looks like such a bitch. 

"I'm not challenging you at Mania because The Rock told me not to" is just INSANE booking.

The Rock: "Don't worry, little buddy, I'll challenge Roman at WrestleMania instead."

Flashbacks of Bret losing the title at WrestleMania 9 and telling Hogan to go after Yokozuna right after the match.

[NintendoLogic]

I saw the segment where Bayley challenged Iyo. Between recognizing that Damage CTRL was going to turn on her and having a weapon ready when things went sideways, Bayley has to be the smartest babyface in WWE history.

Cody knows better than to mess with Black Adam #hierarchyofpower 

[Timbo Slice]

So Cody winning the Rumble was Dwayne insurance, got it. 

[KawadaSmile]

What's CRAZY to me is that Roman spent the first part of that segment ethering Rollins and his Mickey Mouse belt. Then Cody shows up and says "yeah I'll fight that loser instead. Do your thing, Dwayne!" 

[C.S.]

Cody Rhodes: "At a little show in 1990 known as the Survivor Series, my dad (starts tearing up) The American Dream (crying) Dusty Rhodes (full-blown sobbing) faced a debuting Phenom, The Undertaker, and now I'm calling him out. Come out of retirement. I want to do with my dad was never able to do. I want to Finish. The. Story. I want to be the 3 in 26-3."

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