In terms of bad live performances, one honorary mention should be whoever played at WM18. I think it was Drowning Pool, but I might be off. The performance itself wasn't so bad for what it was. It was just that it was introduced as "telling the story of the Chris Jericho vs. Triple H main event." They knew that their main event had such a lovely storyline going into the show that it could not be saved by even WWE's video package team. The best they could do was have this buttrock band play with monitors showing quick clips of Jericho and Triple H hitting each other with the occasional shot of Stephanie looking angry.

Apparently he was supposed to win the US belt at Elimination Chamber but was injured so they put it on Riddle instead. (according to wiki)

Was he gassed in the last few times he was wrestling? I honestly can't remember but I liked how he performed in the ring. He seemed like a proper big stronk

He definitely gave up on him recently, nobody's just been able to agree on why, and the reasons vary from "he thinks he's fat" to "he thinks he's weak for getting COVID" to "he thinks he can't talk and is boring"

I've been saying this for years, they should do a storyline where one of the shows gets a new authority figure who is super militant anal about the rules and begins hard-core enforcing them and even changing them to be more strict, like changing it so that as long as it's caught on camera it doesn't matter if a referee didn't see the cheating with his own eyes(which to be frank is how it should be anyways as currently referees are basically pointless 99% of the time) Thus we get the Heels punished for their cheating enough that they stop relying on it to win matches(that way when they can do it again it'll be refreshing rather than cliche), and you'll get some fun matches when the authority figure goes too far and has to be taken down for the sake of the show Astro7x posted:Best women's roster in the world, separated into 4 subpar rosters with only one of them (NXT) being somewhat decent. I know people poo poo on AEW women's division, but AEW is currently doing a better job than Raw, Smackdown, or NXT UK individually. Honestly they just need to give the Women's Division it's own show separate from the existing three, in fact have it take the place of 205 Live and merge the Cruiserweight Division back into the three regular shows, having a unified Women's Division would solve the current problem where the talent pools on all three shows feels too shallow for a weekly basis, and having their own show means they won't have to play second banana to the men on Raw, Smackdown, and NXT Aardvark Barber posted:Looks like Peacock added Raws through 1996 now.

I'm gonna take a wild guess and Randy Orton bitched about having to lose at Wrestlemania in a gimmick match so they gave him the win because WWE has no spine when it comes to Orton in spite of him being a dull over the hill wrestler who if they had any brains they'd give the boot

So, was the finish to the main event a way to set up future Roman/Edge stuff by saying Edge got the pin first and the FEUD CONTINUES? Or are they so dumb they didn't realize the booked finish of the match was Roman dropping one of his opponents on top of the other for the pin? Like if you had to have Roman pin both, why not lay them down side by side? And technically, since D.Bry was under Edge, doesn't that mean only he was pinned? So Roman didn't actually pin both guys? Why am I trying to make sense of WWE? Why have heels go over in front of your first live audience for a year? Why do I watch wrestling?
