I love how these "Trades" are always like "Other Company gets 1 guy whose on the verge of retirement, WWE gets their entire main event scene"

the very idea of wrestling companies doing trades fills me with a weird rage. Like I get that its lovely nba trade deadline content produced by absolute loving cowards without any loving blood whatsoever, but agreements that are in any way comparable to the type of trading they make podcasts and tweets about are so much more complicated and interesting than that joke where you put a bunch of players into one of the trade salary cap calculator websites and say "who says no."

It reminds me of the funny memory of UFC and ONE trading Mighty Mouse for Ben Askren and both basically getting busts.

Has anyone pointed out that SAP more then likely comes from the SAP function on TVs, which is normally how you'd hear the Spanish broadcast of a show?
Because I'm not sure if the dummy is intentionally ignoring that or feels they genuinely invented the concept of wrestlers on commentary who still wrestle and speak spanish.

I'm so loving unbelievable tilted that there's gonna be a wrestling PPV in Detroit, in Ford Field, in Summer and it's not Forbidden Door or All Out but fuckmothering SummerSlam.

Yeah...but look at the bright side, there's likely going to be some good indie shows that weekend!

But yeah, Tony teasing the Detroit crowd with a pape did not go how I expected

I was going to make a joke about an SNL fan who thinks SNL has too much sketch comedy on it, but the analogy kinda makes sense. SNL is a sketch comedy show for people who hate sketch comedy the same way WWE is a wrestling show for people who hate wrestling.

also "Shunsuke"

I mean, Shunsuke Nakamura was an exceptional taker of free kicks when he played for Celtic back in the day, but he's been retired for years.

I'm not sure if being pretty good at association football would translate to wrestling either, to be honest.
