So tonight, heels won every single match except for Sami/KO.

And heels now hold almost every single title in WWE outside of the NXT Tag Titles (held by MSK) and the SD Women's Title (Bianca Belair). It's like WWE waited for this exact moment to gently caress every babyface over. They must have been going through massive heat withdrawals.

I can see it being some kind of misguided hook on having all these villains win, how will our heroes come back and win, but they never loving build up any dedicated faces and it's almost always 50/50 booking.

Rhea and Asuka just never kicked into gear. They've both had better matches and are both really good, but sometimes stuff doesn't click. It was fine, just a little disappointing.

It's definitely the Shinsuke vs Styles WM disappointment match as someone said earlier.

So D-Bry helps put on what was leading up to be a banger of a match, he's running on borrowed time, and what exactly does he get from this other than money? No one comes out of that match looking good.

The more and more I'm of the mind set that these people should get a month off after Mania. Just let them rest go home, everyone looks so burned out and everything was so loving sloppy. It sucks that in this business the only way you can really give yourself some time off is if you severely injure yourself.

On the other hand they choose to work for WWE, so I'm conflicted.

It's really telling that the most genuinely funny part of Raw was totally by accident and the camera cuts away almost immediately. Weirder so since it involved Miz and his pants getting shredded unintentionally. Also Maryse falling rear end backwards while trying to cover his dick bulge up.

Creed isn't going anywhere G4 and WWE are tied up by NBC now even more so with Peacock taking over the streaming end. He's probably there for life now.

Dude knows he's stuck. And since G4 is his ticket for after wrestling, AND isn't on the verge of being a real channel on tv anytime soon, he's loving stuck. Even if they ditch E and Kofi, Creed can't leave.

Vin Diesel basically hates the Rock for coming in and taking over the franchise.

(The franchise would probably be dead if it wasn't for the Rock, so...)

Honestly the Brazil movie would have been fine with anyone else that was super sweaty and glowering, the physical car stunts in that movie and onward are bug gently caress nuts.

I can't wait to see Cena in another film, his comic timing is genuinely amazing. Really funny dude.

Hopefully you mean "The Suicide Squad" because in that F9 movie he's just gonna be monotone and glowering and boring as gently caress as to not outshine the fragility that is Vin Diesel.

I'm sure Diesel has some weird rear end rules in his contract about how they're allowed to shot him next to taller actors just like how his character can't lose any fights.

The Stallone/Arnold/Van Damme/Segal Clause I believe it's termed as.

WWE people on twitter are trying real hard to get Miz considered for Johnny Cage in the inevitable sequel to this MK reboot.

That's really hosed up when you have a super handsome athletic guy like JOHNNY loving MUNDO right there who did his Johnny Cage schtick better in Lucha Underground than Miz ever could in 6 sequels of Marine movies.

Also Morrison would probably be cheaper to get and use because MK was trash and lol if there's any kind of sequel.

It looks like it is a Nacion Lucha Libre show, which was a promotion owned by Alberto and Chavo Guerrero Jr that I thought shut down for good, but I guess Alberto is bringing it back. I think the Combate Americas is just there because Alberto is/was affiliated with it? And isn't that an actual MMA promotion, not a pro wrestling thing, and I think it changed its name too. I like how it has a question mark like they don't even know what it has to do with anything.

The whole thing is appropriately half-assed for being an Alberto el Patron endeavor

Combate Americas is an MMA sort of deal for Mexico, Alberto was/is an owner as well as Chapo Guzman's alleged girlfriend, the last show I'm aware of that they did was actually down here and it was Alberto vs Tito Ortiz. It was a hilarious poo poo show that Alberto actually trained for, you had a ton of Lucha people in attendance, my hometown crowd cheered for Tito, who was adorned in a gently caress ton of MAGA poo poo, :suicide: , it was bad and now I feel bad remembering it.
