I DON'T GIVE A CRAP WHAT SHE BELIEVES THE HARRY POTTER BOOKS CHANGED MY LIFE #HUFFLEPUFF

Q7kid posted:

The broad strokes I got are that ATT will force Sammy to agree to their terms on some match, possibly for the TNT Title, as a means of earning the ten-man tag the Inner Circle wants. It certainly didn't convey 100% clearly, but that seemed to be what Lambert was alluding to with talking about how the man with the title has the stroke.

Gotcha, that makes sense. It was a fun segment.

I'm fine with that if it encourages TNT to move Rampage to an earlier timeslot.

When I was 17, my father was so stupid, I didn't want to be seen with him in public. When I was 24, I was amazed at how much the old man had learned in just 7 years.
A third hour would be interesting because there are several markets that just wouldn't be able to carry it. They have experimented with having the 'real' main event to close the second hour from time to time on Raw but they would just have to do that there.

Dave was talking about nights when Smackdown would be on FS1 which doesn’t have local news to contend with.

And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.

Weird, how come those 18-49 numbers didn't get released with the overall viewership in the fast nationals? How peculiar.

wwe was providing him the leaked info, he can only report what he has. the onus is more on wwe being caught as the ones getting the fast national out and then going quiet the moment the number is not as favorable.

It's fantastic, because Bryan gets Dave on the ratings story, and then completely shuts up and lets Dave go purestrain Dave about the ratings and the failures of WWE for twenty minutes. I don't think Bryan interrupts him once.

The funny thing is all things considered Dave is incredibly well adjusted it's just his mind organizes itself outside of normal three dimensional thinking and moves back and forth across the timeline so that occasionally he begins a sentence in 1982 and concludes the thought here with us in what might be described as "the present".

The woman takes a chair shot after a 22 minute match. Raw pauses. Seven seconds now. It’s April, 1995. I’m at the Hartford Civic Center. It’s April, 2012. I’m in Sun Life Stadium, in Miami Gardens, Florida. Eighteen seconds, three. I’m tired of looking at Raw now. I move my fingers. The television turns off. I am going to look at old stars. The Attitude Era is so far away. And their light takes so long to reach the ratings. All I ever book of stars are their old footage on Peacock.
