Imagine thinking typing out a list that has four 'name + name' tag teams is a good defense.

What! The WWE wouldn't let one of their "independent contractors" wrestle for someone else? Well I am shocked! Who could have seen this coming? Ah bloo bloo

You could just not post anything instead of complaining about people being angry about something.

Remember when ricochet and Aleister challenged for all three sets of tag titles, and lost every time? The matches were breathtaking, the one versus the Viking raiders was match of the year quality. They were still losers who choked

Why would someone expect pushes for them?

They flip-flopped someone from being a jobber to him having the world title in two matches not very long ago.

Why do people still act like vince has power. Vince doesn't have power, nick took the power. Nick named doudrop and made nikki cross a superhero to punish her for having a similar name. Open your eyes.

Did the businessman think there was room for growth in Doudrop?

Arnold is way cooler than Doug, his friends are all cooler than Doug's friends, and he'd go on fun adventures like "Arnold learns karate so he can fight off muggers on the bus" or "Arnold's grandpa gets into a fist fight with a shark" whereas Doug was lame and his adventures were stuff like "Doug is terrified of ethnic food" or "Doug has an episode-long day dream where he's a much cooler and more successful person"

Sounds like WWE should sign Doug

oh you made that joke already, well I made it again

I'd be so sad about how misused someone as athletic and talented as T-Bar is if he wasn't one of those "just happy to be here. WWE PAID FOR MY HOUSE MARKS" WWE defenders on twitter. It was funny how hard he stuck up for WWE while being in Retribution though

I enjoyed him trying to go "ha ha this angle sucks doesn't it" on twitter, but then getting clearly pissed when someone else critiqued it in a way he didn't like.

I think I found the best way to describe WWE's death spiral to non-wrestling friends.

Imagine if Starscream was about to take over the world, but then all the autobots started banding together... and then Megatron began tearing Starscream apart limb by limb, and blowing up random Decepticons in the process.

It's more like if Starscream was about to take over from Megatron and then some new Decepticon they just hired did it way better.

WVGCW is using the most current usable game (19 because 20 and 21 aren't good enough improvements) and has quite a few new people who were never on the '14 era shows, as does the current show for male CAWs, BWA. That's a strange mix of information.

No worries, I just to try to clarify when people assume the concept up and died completely. https://www.twitch.tv/vgcw

The WrestleMania match? I never saw it, only a clip of Triple H pulling out Batista's piercings with pliers. What else happened?

Oh, in the build Haitch did a moment where he basically fake shooted on him, by more or less going "this isn't Triple H talking to Batista, this is Paul Levesque talking to Dave Bautista, and in our match I'm going to REALLY fight you!" Like, all the other matches aren't real, but ours super is!

The funniest part is that the Shazam movie over-performed against its budget, but the Rock refused to make his first appearance as a big Black Adam be in the sequel. His insistence on producing and top lining doomed the film

It really is insane, he signed up to play a prominent antagonist for a hero he seemed to want nothing to do with if possible.

It's honestly pretty genius to also do stuff like call Tony a kid in that interview, since obviously a bunch of things will signal boost that over this. lovely of him, but still genius.
