Btw is it just me or is it really stupid to run a main event of Swerve vs. Rob Van Dam without actually advertising the latter particularly when you're struggling to sell tickets.

I didn't even know they were running that match

Hanger said he wouldn't officially announce swerve's opponent, that swerve would have to wait the whole fn show to hear who his one of a kind opponent is. tickets pl0x.

Are we pretending that Hangman vs Toa Liona isn't enough to sell out UNO Lakefront Arena?

You know what would be really bad rear end? If Hangman waited until Swerve was in the ring and then came out to the stage to announce his opponent and said "It's me!" and ran into the ring to beat Swerve's rear end for menacing his infant in his home.

But I guess choosing a semi-retired stoner to fight him is fine too.

Good news everyone, the failed promotions guy has solved all of tk's problems so the show will be good and we can all leave.

Seem like a good idea in theory but in practice it wouldn't be possible for a supercomputer to appear on camera drunk or open a show by playing guitar in the middle of the ring (things that true genius bookers do).

If they really want to move tickets announce the CMLL matches so we can start the build to Bryan in Arena Mexico

THE LIAR
CMLL vs. BCC, Takeshita vs. Jericho, Sting and Darby vs. Ricky and Big Cass, Swerve vs. Hangman and a TONY KHAN HUGE ANNOUNCEMENT.

Tony finally realized he has to book big shows for people to buy tickets, thank god. :laffo:

Also Timeless Toni sucks rear end. I can tolerate it because it's one segment, but holy poo poo she's awful.

I don't know how you can hate Timeless Toni. "Someone else pissed in my seat!"

The card looked dire on paper but everyone was out there looking like they were fighting for their dinner.

Any guesses on what this BIG ANNOUNCEMENT is going to be?

I guess with Andrade out we need another WWE malcontent on the roster to gunk up the booking.
