And then worship the people in charge of it even after they can your rear end with added garbage bag of locker gear!

If you're wondering why so many people go into the PC and get hidden away for a decade because 'they're not ready', a lot of it probably has to do with the ability to memorize and recite word vomit

I’ve worked on big Hollywood sets and no budget schlock fests and even the worst indie scripts looked better than that.

Even the worst indie scripts have had to go through so many layers of quality control and rewrites and are literally never torn up and redone the day of shooting. Unless you work for like David O Russell or something.

I'm pretty certain that happened on The Room, largely from the rest of the crew desperately trying to make something resembling a movie out of the batshit nonsense scripts Tommy Wiseau had written. That's about the level that WWE's creative process is on. The Room.

Sorry if I offended you - I don't go on fanfiction.net but the writing of that script reminds me of the worst type of descriptive writing by fanfic writers that is sometimes highlighted on these dead forums.

My partner once told me about an ex-boyfriend who would write WWE/Highlander fiction. So like WWE wrestlers would fight each other but at the end of matches they would behead each other and do the quickening thing. I couldn't stop laughing at the idea of HHH putting a guy in a pedigree and just having his head pop off. My partner didn't totally understand what a pedigree is so she drew this when I explained it to her.

So in case you are curious how much of a loving difference there is between reactions for Raquel and Io: Io returned tonight and got an absolutely monster reaction. Raquel walked out like a few minutes after that segment and got almost complete silence. But yeah, keep saying Raquel is the megastar in the making, WWE.

Those edge promos are… Well, very 2006. Surprised that the Ric Flair one is called “the first man with AIDS”. And that Shannon Moore named his tattoo parlor “Gas Chamber Ink”.

The problem with Moon/Kai is it ended in a DQ. This is at least the second match where Raquel has hosed everything up and its so incredibly main roster. As for Kross, he's definitely retaining on Sunday but it would be a mistake. Everyone else in that ring completely took a hatchet to his character and completely shredded any credibility he had.

She started collaborating with WWE, began producing kind of lame metal music, but fortunately got away from the abusive Titanic Sinclair. It feels like she has a lot less buzz now than two years ago when she was kind of a niche thing.
