I'm not wishing for anyone to get fired but I'm very entertained by the thought of Nick Khan seeing the head2head demographic ratings, checking how much Roman and (especially) Lesnar are paid, and a smash cut to Vince doing his gulp.gif

The thing I remember most about Edge's return is "THE GREATEST WRESTLING MATCH EVER," which to this day is still messing up search engines.

I don't know who actually is on Smackdown due to not watching + they just did a draft. WWE has a stacked roster so I'm sure some of them are good. I think Nakamura and Cesaro are Smackdown? The plus side is that being there live means you won't deal with the nauseating camera work or miserable commentary, so I hope you have fun  Happy Birthday!

There’s still probably some fun to be had at a live show. It blows its WWE but if you ain’t paying for it go have fun.

Not really. The Bloodline (Roman, Heyman and the Usos) is still chugging along. With Brock, it's hit it's most interesting beat it has left (whose side is Heyman on?!), but unless there's a double turn the storyline is gonna drag on until Roman vs The Rock. The only strong babyface left is Drew McIntyre but he's been flanderized to death, cutting terrible promos about stereotypical scottish things and carrying around a sword which is pretty much his only personality trait now, so that feud will die a horrible death. uh... there's nakamura and rick BOOGS, i guess. that's about it, the rest of the SD roster is going nowhere fast

well, here's the draft results for Smackdown: but it looks like your show is the go-home show for Survivor Series, so assuming Drew beats Big E on Thursday and goes to Raw as a result, you're looking at a staredown between Roman and Drew McIntyre in preparation for a non-title match which Roman will win decisively, and a whole lot of inter-brand invasion shenanigans probably not much wrestling tho, unless Vince is really scared by Rampage that night

I think Xavier has the king of the ring in the bag. How can Balor be the ring's king when the ring betrayed him during his last title match? Side note wow, I didn't know Shayna lost her queen of the ring match, guess her 3 week unstoppable streak is over. Least we get a face vs heel finals.

I feel like Dave has made some quick comments here and there that suggest Sheamus is on borrowed time. DLC Inc posted:I get what you're saying---I would never put Edge in 2020 in remotely the same circle as any of these guys. "Ended up injured after all of them" tells everything----the guy isn't Bryan, he isn't Christian, he looks haggard af and just isn't as solid a hand in the ring anymore. He was a big draw when he was younger but he doesn't really have the same quality of opponents to dance with. Bryan and Christian have scrambled brains but my guess is that it's easier to maintain their bodies than it is for Edge to do it with a scrambled vertebrae. I would disagree about him being solid though, his matches are still good.

when the pandemic started i decided to "catch up" on some classic shows i'd never given a chance which ended up primarily being the tv shows star trek and frasier. my roommate would watch them back to back, hours into days, endless content, and then there was a star trek episode about time anomalies and at the end they solve it and who should greet them but captain frasier grouch himself kelsey grammar, fellas, it frankly broke my god damned feeble little brain.
