Joe lucked out and didn't take the bait to go back and get cut a third time sadly

this glorious monument

I hope Paul got his boys guaranteed money. Even if I don't like Paul's boys screw WWE saving inconsequential amounts of money at their expense. And screw stockholders for falling for it quite frankly.

If there's chicken references from the crowd on Monday I'm sticking a fork in Cody, he done.

Cody leaving the company he helped created because some fans were being mean to him only to go to WWE, lose the most important match of his career, and get turned into a rubber chicken meme where the fans start being mean to him in a whole other company is just unbelievable. We really are living in a simulation

If they want to kill the chicken thing just have Michael Cole talk about how it's taking the WWE Universe by storm.

One time a guy stole some downhill skis out of my jeep and I was so mad I punched a mailbox. I'm against crime, and I'm not ashamed to admit it.
I could see nxt being transformed due to this. I doubt it gets eliminated altogether though. Wrestlenomics estimates their tv deal is $30 million, and there’s no way that covers the costs of a live tv show, the PC and all the talent. There’s no other significant source of income for the brand either. I expect it will be probably lean into the reality show aspects and become some sort of hybrid of Tough Enough and nxt season 1 with a small roster that changes every 6-12 months.

Almost everyone in here was crowing about how it was only a matter of time for them to humiliate him. In hindsight I should have not believed the hype that they were passing on Sami to give the title to Cody. After all he was one of AEW’s biggest stars and you can’t trust Vince when it comes to people he views as competitors, even if he owns them. They make him look like a dork at WM and then a complete geek talking himself down from a rematch to a tag match, then a total loser getting beat for ten minutes. Vince doesn’t lose.

And I think my head is burning,

To be done with all this measuring of proof.

And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.

Remember those Halcyon days of "the weekend" where thinkpieces were written "lets see how it plays out" that Cody losing wouldn't hurt him and he needed adversity to overcome for The Greater Story and then Brock rubbed him into a fine paste and now hes the rubber chicken loser.

To throw at Roman when he lost.

At least someone tweeted claiming they threw it and actually were aiming for Roman.

I doubt they're gonna cut any big names but I suspect all of the recent rehires like the Good Brother, Jonah/Bronson Reed, Bray, will all end up getting cut soon. Maybe they'll cut Nakamura of the big names still around since they aren't using him

Where things will get interesting is contract renewal time as UFC hates giving people raises and I can see WWE low balling or even just not offering raises or even lower money for talent to stay. Like I 100% think they're gonna low ball Bailey and let her walk

I WAS THERE
WHEN CODY RHODES

Meltzer’s impression was questions of roster budget and what talent wwe values or cuts or such will just be 100% up to Vince so I don’t think the history of ufc or endeavor will mean much for wwe talent.

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.
