arent you the person that made multiple threads cataloguing every microaggression you could find from raws that aired 20 years ago

shuttering NXT while cutting a few more people would probably improve the shows. put the remaining NXT people on the main shows already and maybe down the line have nightmare-factory thing for trainees.

The most disturbing thing about that Alexa/Lilly/Shayna segment are the camera cuts that break the 4th wall. Good god. Like, it's not just a bad idea, but they actively had to edit the thing to make it worse.

100% agree. Regardless of the content, that shot looking up at Shayna killed the whole thing for me.

In kayfabe, how do you make the magical clown demon show up to the show when you want him to anyway?

I've been involved in a number of cults, both as a leader and a follower.

You have more fun as a follower. But you make more money as a leader.

The worst part about the Shayna/Alexa segment was purposefully redoing the Hogan/Warrior mirror thing when it was universally panned as an all-time wrestlecrap moment.

There are several reports out there saying Eva is supposed to be returning as a babyface.

I mean at this point it should be clear they have no idea what constitutes a babyface these days. Everyone wins via fluke rollup regardless of alignment anyway.

Bray is a wrestling genius. He outsourced his act to a hot girl and a doll who are in the upper card/main event and he just sits on his rear end at home reaping all the merch money.

Unless they had planned the exact same gimmick and circumstances probably not very well because he certainly wasn’t good on the mic or known for memorable matches

Considering Sting and Lex Luger are the ones who recruited him from the gym they all went to, probably not.

i'm amused by the idea that one RKO kept Bray off TV longer than being literally burned alive

although to be fair it's implied that the Fiend's power also got absorbed by Alexa's BLS or something? my Lore is rusty

Apr 16, 2008


…what else are you supposed to do when you’re a featured guest on a podcast?

I feel for the guy. He did everything he could, and his attitude about it is healthier than being wildly bitter. He’s not bootlicking, he’s honest and candid, and when it comes down to it his life was legit improved by his time there. He met his wife, expanded his fan base, and is now gaining even more of an emotional connection with people because his situation is something people can empathize with.

When it comes down to it, we aren’t in his shoes.

It’s driving me nuts how this sub is making GBS threads on him so much and I’m gonna calm down by looking at the Instagram he and Thea have of their absurd number of cats.

Tommy End sucks and here's my mathematical proof:

I don't really care either way about him, but ultimately he's in a pretty good position now to work wherever he wants.

I think he did have some interviews with Vince because why not? But considering that his home base was Atlanta since he played football for the Falcons he was more geared toward entering the WCW.
