I never knew I wanted a video of Big Show running down the meta and class builds of Destiny, but here we are.

There's a part of me that's like... "Wait... did Xavier do this as a rib on his subscribers and script this for Show?" and then I look at his gigantic goofy grin and it has to be a shoot, because if it was fake, you'd hold the smile in.

I guess now we know what happens when WWE films finally notices the relative success of garbage low-budget Christian films.

I would not at all be surprised if this ends up being their most financially successful film based on every Church group in the country eagerly buying it to be hip.

I think I'm just thrown because Jericho and Goldust are around the same age and have NO clue about video games. Like, Rollins or Miz being dorks about Madden and EA UFC, I get, and Rollins' appearances on UUDD have done almost more for me seeing him as a babyface than that WWE 24 documentary, but Show being super-into an MMO shooter? It's awesome, but very unexpected.

During Raw one night Big show was DMing some random guy on twitter who had asked for destiny build tips or whatever, when he apologised because he had to go do something. The something was his match that night. Within like 3 minutes of the match ending he was back to DMing the guy with even more advice.

The guy is legit.

Not that it makes it any better, but it was filmed a few days before the London Bombings and then aired the day after, I think? But if we're convinced having a Sikh portray a Sikh the day after the anniversary of 9/11 is some sort of coded message, the fact that it was a different terrorist attack and was before the terrorist attack hardly matters.

When you look at the timeline of events there was no reason they couldn't cut that segment. Like, there's no godly reason. Smackdown was recorded on Tuesday at the time. The 7/7 attacks happened on a Thursday morning and aired in the UK on Friday night. There was a disclaimer at the start of episode but if they thought the cable companies or advertisers were going to be fine with the idea of Taker getting piano choked by extremists after a terrorist attack then they're B+ morons. Problem is I genuinely think that they thought it would fly under the radar since it didn't happen in the US and it pisses me off thinking about it because Muhammed Hassan started out as a great prospect and the most interesting heel characters in years at the time.

PWInsider said something a day or two ago about her being out on the road this weekend. I figured she'd stay on Raw but because of the injury she wasn't drafted so it was up in the air. Good to see her back

Hopefully Harper goes to Raw and is thus far the gently caress away from Bray bringing him down

I too hope no-one goes to Smackdown, thus leaving AJ Styles to wrestle Dean Ambrose and the Miz for 90 minutes every Tuesday, following the weekly 30 minute Iron Woman match between Becky and Nikki.

EDIT: Oh, WWE.com just posted the confirmed list of cruisers for RAM this Monday. It's TJP, Metalik, TBK, Cedric, Noam Dar, Swann and Lince Dorado. Notably no Tozawa or Gallagher, and I'm all for the local lad done good, but Noam Dar on Raw before Tozawa either means Tozawa didn't sign or WWE have no loving clue.

A tangible part of SmackDown's charm is how it's making do with a nothing roster while Raw flounders with a stacked roster due to bad pacing and booking. I would however prefer that charm to be replaced with the charm of lots of great wrestlers being in lots of great storylines. I imagine they're basically the same thing.

It means Tozawa still has a match for dragon's gate and gallagher has a date or two left for progress
