Funniest thing about everything this past week is that it's clearly shown that Nick Khan is way better at this game than HHH is/was. Finally someone has buried the shovel

We'll see if he can fix the on screen product though.

the last sensational rumor I heard was the longterm plan was to become a NBC product.

I mean given how in bed WWE is with USA and Peacock that probably is the end game and I could see it happening super quickly if Vince dies or if the money is big enough

I wonder how he’ll evaluate talent for pushes and the like since he seems to have an outsider, business like approach to the business.

Yeah AEW could really help with New Japan's Jr Tag division so we don't just have Roppongi 3K wrestling Despy and Kanemaru for the 395th time

Top Flight vs Literally Any Juniors In New Japan would be an absolute delight. Same with Private Party.

As far as singles matches go, I really really want ZSJ vs Angelico, and Hiromu vs Jungle Boy.

How can Jey possibly give full attention to cheating for Roman if he's winning the tag titles?

Also I consistently think when I see the results that AEW has never had the same champion face the same challenger (maybe orange Cassidy Vs. Cody after a tie?) and they don't make it look hard. WWE has champions beat half of everyone in a month, then the other half never get a shot.

Not only are the Street Profits obviously not the New Day, they're also not the Smackdown tag team champions. Just a complete failure of a title.

Dunno if you are talking about Bianca or not, but Bayley is technically justified in getting/wanting another title shot as she did lose via cheating from Bianca.

Now that being said, its pretty clear they have no idea what to do with Bianca since she has already bulldozed through almost the entire Smackdown Women's Division. I guess they could circle around to another Sasha/Bianca match for MITB and/or Summerslam, but after that, who the gently caress knows. Their refusal to redebut Mia Yim or bring in other women to bolster the division is 100% due to WWE being either spiteful or lazy. Or both!

No, thankfully. But that is gonna change soon with her targeting Shayna.

Speaking of RAW, the big sit down segment advertised for the show next week is "After Charlotte's dominant* victory over Asuka last week, she will join The Miz and Rhea Ripley on Miz TV to discuss her title match at Hell in a Cell"

*she won via rollup, also all three people involved in that segment are massive heels so its going to be an utterly massive shitshow.

Batista did a like marketing-approved "look out for zombies" tweet or IG post or something followed by a tweet that was like "I don't know why you guys are complaining to me about this, I'm on a plane right now. complain to Vince" during the match
