but why is it 'off the table' for now? did something happen that doesn't allow him to speak openly? what did i miss here

I am a bit worried that something came up on an examination to clear him and it's not good. I am hoping I'm wrong!

I'm probably reading way into it but it kind of makes it sound like he was expecting to be released in that last round and was going to dish the dirt, then he didn't get released after all.

tbh I think everyone felt that way, I was shocked that Braun Strowman and even Aleister--a guy with a new storyline---got cut before the guy who ahs been mysteriously sitting at home and making mournfully cryptic tweets for eons.

Unrelated today is the 2 year anniversary of Taker vs Goldberg almost dying in their Super Showdown match in SA.

I’ve never seen a match go off the rails so fast as that one, it was incredible. It was actually going better than expected for the first couple of minutes, the goldberg brained himself on the ring post or something and they managed to botch 10 spots in a row

Something tells me they spent a lot of that match awkwardly crawling over one another on the mat attempting to call spots while concussed.

I have to imagine even if the Wrestlemania 33 match with Reigns had actually been good Taker would have still kept wrestling. I'm still not entirely convinced he is actually retired. I guess we'll know for sure when WWE resumes the KSA Blood Money shows and Taker isn't on the card.

To be honest I'd laugh pretty hard if they did these months of videos for her, then she had her last gimmick where she would come out to an elaborate intro, then make up an excuse and leave immediately without wrestling. Then get the old "Eva Marie has left the building" line.

Some teeth long for ripping, gleaming wet from black dog gums. So you keep your eyes closed at the end. You don't want to see such a mouth up close. before the bite, before its oblivion in the goring of your soft parts, the speckled lips will curl back in a whinny of excitement. You just know it.

Nia Jax warns Shayna Baszler about Alexa Bliss, Shayna again calls Lily stupid and says she doesn't need help
Shayna guests on Alexa's Playground and won't apologize to Lily. She blames Alexa for the pyro incidents, then calls Lily stupid again. Shayna steps on Lily, causing the Thunderdome lights to flicker and flame pyro to burst up the ramp. Shayna bails, but backstage lights flicker and equipment falls around her. The doors are locked so she can't escape. She's able to find an open locker room and barricades herself inside, but the lights flicker there too and Lily's inside. The lights go out and Shayna screams
