I didn’t watch any of TNA but people still laugh and make fun of a lot of things from that era whereas I don’t think anyone will ever remember anything that happened during 2018-2021 WWE. I’d rather watch something laughably bad than the most boring shows of all time

Raw Underground was memorably bad, imo.

Brock/Cody should borrow a page from DDT. During the match, at Cody's lowest point, Cody and Brock should freeze. The arena lights fade out, and up on the tron they play the Arn Anderson Glock promo. Everything fades back in, and Cody goes under the ring and pulls out a gun and shoots Brock.

The core of WWE's booking philosophy for the past decade has been "Roman is the most specialest boy ever", and if people can't figure that out by now, that's on them.

Thats some Walter White in the "Crawl Space" episode level of breakdown. Roman is incredible. One thing that really hit home on this for me is how Roman isn't afraid to look weak when it counts. The range he has shown from calm and collected and in control to shook and now falling into unhinged territory has been amazing... This whole storyline has only proven Roman's mastery on psychology and character work as a whole.

Roman Reigns, though he may be big and handsome and muscley and have long hair, the requirements for a WWE Superstar.

He is not charismatic. He does not command my attention.

Everything that was/is good about the Bloodline storyline, or skits has been everything that was/is not him.

That is what you are watching, what you are enjoying, what you care about. Not the tall long haired handsome man scowling in the corner.

Yet he is the one pushed and protected.

What part of "This whole storyline has only proven Roman's mastery on psychology and character work as a whole." do you not understand?

The collapsible time keeper area was part of the series between the Shield and Bryan/Kane/+1 in 2013 lol. Reigns kept spearing Kane into it until the last match where Kane dodged it and took out Reigns instead. The last decade of WWE has been built entirely around him and they've lost more viewers in that time then people who still watch but yeah Roman is a giant draw.

Ah.

Did they have Afa and Sika and Rikishi or whoever else show up or did the elders sanction it off screen.

Maybe it feels like that because the only story beat for three years has been Roman and the Usos experiencing contention with each other.

Hey, you forgot about the story beat of "Sami gets over by spending all his promos trying to make people corpse, adding some actual variety and energy to the endless acknowledge me promos"

Roman takes the inside-out bump, Jey goes for the dive, sees Roman is leaning over the barricade, screams "JOE! JOE!", does the dive, Roman doesn't stand up, takes the dive on his back and I guess gets hurt there?

I dunno who I'm more annoyed with here, Roman for not knowing how to take a loving tope, or Jey for clearly seeing that he's not ready and just doing it anyway.

One of the moments that made me realize Shun Skywalker was going to be someone to keep an eye on, was about a year into his career, he has a match where he does a bicycle kick to send a guy to the outside for a tope. His opponent got his foot stuck in the rope and was out of position for the move but Shun notices and mid stride changes direction to the corner and hits a triangle plancha instead, giving his opponent time to get in position. I guess expecting WWE main eventers to have the same ring awareness as a rookie in Dragon Gate is too much to ask for though.
