I know we've been over this a bunch of times already, but hey guys, how loving funny is it that WWE chose to not put this guy over at Wrestlemania in favor of a guy who's not even on this show.

Why would Roman be on this show? He's canonically too cool and powerful to have to wrestle on the wrestling show

That was when they took over The JBL and Cole Show, which IMO is one of the best things the company has done in the modern era.

That, Southpaw Regional Wrestling and Talking Smack. Funny how the Vince-less YouTube shows where the wrestlers were allowed more creative freedom were more entertaining and naturally funny than all the overscripted poo poo on the main shows.

I was more engaged with the story of Heath Slate- sorry, I mean Big Clem Layfield, being JBL's nephew than any ongoing WWE storylines.

Sara Lee's death has been ruled a suicide. The county medical examiner's office announced that she had a toxic mixture of amphetamines, doxylamine (Unisom, a sleep aid) and alcohol in her system. :smith:

Total fuckin' silence.
The best thing about the JBL and Cole show is that it was just everyone having a laugh backstage and making a sort of weird sitcom to pass the time. I like it when people have fun, even when one of those individuals is JBL of all people.

RE: The F4W vid on the new title tournament: Every day that passes Vince shows more and more that the AE was a total fluke and the only thing he can be given credit for is being born to a man with an already relatively successful wrestling promotion.

I've got a pocket full of cheese🧀, and a garden full of trees🌴.

I am still sad that they never made the "Southpaw" wrestling series 3 that they teased with this video.

And as a thought experiment, I sometimes like to think what Southpaw would have been like with Vince's involvement.

It would just be people saying things like "durrr I'm a dumb southerner and I love RASSLIN!" and "hi I'm Musty Chodes and I'll never beat that smart handsome booker up north."

Impact tried to do something like that but it was mostly pretty mediocre. Callis doing Edge's original gimmick is pretty fun though

I always wondered why they didn't do this storyline on WWE TV, just have Slater find out he's related after a fake relative passes or something, Slater deserved better in WWE

And I love the Impact version of Southpaw, it goes full shithouse crazy

I'm pretty sure Southpaw 3 exists *somewhere,* they just didn't put it out because they released everyone in it.

Aren't they legally bound to do this from the WWF settlement? Not that they aren't petty about the past, but don't think this one's by choice.

- Everyone is listed on their new brands internally, but Bianca Belair and IYO SKY's are listed as Raw. We're told this was just an error.

- Rod Zapata is set to referee the night's Main Event.

- Other ref assignments include Dan Engler for the six-man tag match, Eddie Orengo for Priest vs. Bunny, Jessika Carr for Smackdown Women's Title and Rollins vs. Omos. Jason Ayers for the Raw Women's Title and U.S. Title

- There are no pre-show matches listed
