Speaking of Io, she posted a new blog entry apparently.

She's in America now in a hotel (she moves into an apartment later this week).

She was somewhat panicked about her arrival date to the US being pushed forward a few days [if I had to take a guess why, I would point towards Hurricane Beryl in the Atlantic].

She has a bunch of people helping her get used to American life/settled in.

She's amused at the fact that Americans get two days off a week instead of one. And as a result she plans on visiting lots of places tomorrow.

Burying my anger in the past

I think that if Kairi or Kana were around, they could help with the cultural and language transition.

On a side note, what's the fines in WWE if you get busted for weed?

Blessed be the woodworkers

Blessed be the forgers of iron
And the spikes and the barbwire

Blessed be the stone cutters
It took a quarry to bury the dreams
If we take Rob Van Dam as an example, 30 days suspension.

Various people are dropping annoyingly vague hints about who is in it to me.

Io's English is a lot better than Asuka's (I guess part of that has to do with the fact that Io went to a very expensive English language school in Japan in preparation for this). Kairi is busy chillaxin in Hawaii. I guess Funaki handles getting Japanese talent settled in the US though.

From all accounts Deonna's last weekend on the indies:

https://twitter.com/DeonnaPurrazzo/status/1016425903121928192

Deonna wrestling Karen as her final indie match will be a real emotional deal as they are so close. And isn't too far behind her WWE wise most likely.

Aren't most of the MYC talents supposed to be reporting to the PC this week or next week, Rovert? I know Io is already in America, but she was at the NJPW G1 Special a few days ago (she also mentioned in her latest blog that she was moving into an apartment this week). I imagine Deonna will move to Florida within the next week as well. Dunno about Toni Storm, but I imagine she's going to remain in the UK.

Has little to do with the MYC.

Deonna has already moved to Florida. Been there for like two weeks.

The next NXT class reports to the Performance Center on Tuesday. Usually, there's a story on WWE.com on Wednesday.

Toni is staying in the UK for the time being.

I just binged GLOW season 2 and I thought it was really good. Hope we get season 3.

Also am I nuts or were they hinting that Bash may have had some sort of thing with Florian and thus is freaking out about the fact that he might be positive? Or was that just generic grieving/80's HIV panic kinda thing? I kept going back and forth.

The cast have said that (possible future spoilers) Bash is gay and Rhonda finding that out may play a part in Season 3.

The NXT Women's show was her debut. She was a late replacement for some giant lady that the internet found pictures of her butthole(and maybe was too hot a mess for WWE).

I think she was part of some faction with AJ Lee, Big E and someone else but at that point I'd given up on WWE because it was literally abusing me every time I watched it.

No real career defining matches because WWE was and will always be an awful place for women to get over.

She and AJ made the best spear/victim combo. That's pretty much all there is to know.

Kaitlyn came up just a couple of years too early. If she'd been around for the Women's Revolution she'd be able to at least hang with the current crop of talent (and probably more than that if she got the extra training and experience that these women do)

Her matches with AJ Lee are fun. Also, her instagram videos with Big E are wonderous.

Realistically her match with AJ Lee at Payback 2013. Kinda a miracle match as both weren't good workers generally.

Before her time as others have said. Was fast-tracked to TV with little training and was left to figure it out.

Triple H loved her muscular look but Vince wanted her to slim down a lot more to a Trish Stratus type - effectively impossible. Left her questioning herself like crazy.
