Someone loving tranq Carmella. I was feeling like she was improving as a heel and she's run what little material she had into the ground so hard that her being on my screen makes me want to smash my TV.

Apparently this entire post show is designed to make me hate everything even more than I already did. LOUD NOISES.

i hope dean ambrose's new gimmick when he comes back is doing the buzzer noise after he hits a move. there would be 2 or 3 in every match

AJ, Ruru, Braun, and New Day are still fully enjoyable despite mired in poo poo.
NXT has been alright with good PPV's.



B&V are gonna be a blast to listen to today.

I don't really count NXT when I say that because I'll always tune in for a Takeover because those are always quality. But the main product is just god awful most of this year. Like there's the odd good to great match but it's not worth the time to sift through the crap to me.

Took me 2 hours 15 minutes to watch the entire 5 hour show forwarding past entrances, recap videos, and other charity promo poo poo. I skipped 2/3 of the Reigns match and maybe 5 of the iron man match because I’d just skip forward 30 seconds when they do a rest hold.

This poo poo is so padded....

Also I've figured out how to bring back hogan: have him face cena in a big face vs face feature in Australia. Its not canon so you dont have to have him on real tv, and the aussies will be so starstruck they will forget to boo

Plus, Australians will cheer when he says the n-word.

I don't mind that actually because I don't want him as a heel. Plus I don't want him to rush back too fast. That show just genuinely sucked rear end.

Do people go into the new japan threads and evangelize for wwe

WWE has two genuine fans here who can't seem to give it up no matter what.

They're both being rewarded for it with Hogan coming back and Reigns vs Brock forever.

One's also being rewarded with Dean rehabbing to come back for the heel turn Dave's rumored all year and WWE's wanted since the Shield breakup. The other's being rewarded with Asuka being called up just to lose her streak and also every other major match that isn't an ultimately meaningless Rumble, hoping it'll be different with Kairi being called up, and then after that fails hoping it'll be different with Io being called up

They'll still find a way to defend it. Best of luck on it because post-TV deals and Saudi deal, the company's openly caring less and less about quality and masking the poo poo

given that the last time i followed wwe at all was during the attitude era until i got back into it earlier this year i can safely say that i 1) make terrible life decisions 2) feel that this is a step up in quality

Attitude Era’s main event (and tag) scene was so much better than this trash man.

Like the in-ring feats that people are capable of are more technical on average, but the booking and scripted promos completely negate that IMO.

I almost feel bad for Carmella, because they've also made her that special kind of champion that's supposed to just be a huge joke that can't do anything who sucks and only wins because every match is about everything except them wrestling, and it's impossible to look like anything but crap with that booking.

But she's also terrible and the worst non-Tamina choice they could put the belt on, so, y'know

What most companies do when they have a bad show that they want to make a good show instead is have Penta 0M murder some nerd on their show. Maybe wwe should try that. Replacing finn vs corbin with Penta 0M vs corbin would improve this show i think.

Because these things should have limits. Come on guys. Smdh. I know the wrestling product for NJPW is pretty beyond reproach but Don Callis is pretty loving bad and also looks like Less Fat Adult Butthead.

Don Callis was sort of okay kind of I guess in ECW but otherwise I don't care about him at all and he looks like a goober.

JR is AWFUL now. I know he's probably depressed because he's older and had some tragedies lately, but he's phoned it in for a long long long LONG time now and he should've retired like 10 years ago.
