WWE on Fox at least had a modicum of self-awareness and apologized for the latter post fairly quickly.

That apology from WWE on Fox is pretty weak. It feels like they think they said the wrong name instead of dealing with the real problem with their reply.

Would you be my new best friends?

In the interests of positivity, I really, really enjoyed Kairi vs. Becky. I thought it was a really good match and I loved the pre-match stuff with Asuka having enough of Paige trying to hitch her wagon back to their star and blasting green mist in her face.

They had some good matches tonight but man oh man that last image was super creepy and super uncomfortable and not the way you want to end a show.

Becky should be featured a lot more than she is, and so should Asuka and Kairi.

I looked back at Raw at the end just to see how bad it had gotten and heard commentary calling Bobby a bull and then someone in the crowd very audibly yelling "this is weird" as the show faded out on Bobby and Lana making out over Rusev's dickmangled corpse

I tuned in late (turned it on out of boredom, don't normally watch), and I'd like to add to the positive column that Erick Rowan seems pretty cool, I hope he gets to do things someday.

Also forklift spot kind of seems like it would have been better saved for the Fiend, but what do I know.

Feature all women in angles where they are cheating on their significant other, preferably with black males. Feature even more unlikeable characters, people love to hate watch.

I feel like EC3's response is sarcastic or something because he's been obviously airing his frustration on Twitter at the very least. I hope.

e: I see now this was discussed in the social media thread.

So I kept checking in occasionally and then turning off when they promoted the King's divorce court bullshit because it reminded me that was still to come and literally anything is better than this

So if I’m reading this correct:

1) #1 most watched segment on YouTube for the past Raws: all the cuck ones. No, I’m not kidding.

2) Sean Sapp idiot dude just posted a tweet that he’s come full circle and can’t turn away from the cuck storyline.

3) The cuck storyline is the most popular storyline in WWE currently, to the point it’s being praised on many boards and comments on the internet.

After several weeks of beat downs and looking like the biggest loser ever Rusev reveals this was all so he could leave Lana and collect her fortune through a fine print prenup clause she signed unknowingly.
