This reminds me - there was some match in the past couple of years where someone was taking a beating and one of the commentators yelled something like, "Jesus Christ, stop it!"

Anyone remember what I'm talking about? Stood out to me at the time because it felt like a real human reaction but now I can't remember the actual match.

It was JBL in the first ever Suplex City match after like the tenth German. And I fully believe it was a genuine reaction because those were filthy.

He just goes, "Jesus Christ, stop it!"

I was about to go out there a couple weeks ago, and I heard Braun Strowman say, I want a title shot. Mr. McMahon's behind the curtain, at the board watching the monitor, and [Vince] goes, oh god, it's not a title shot. I was thinking to myself, then what is it? That's exactly what I would go to call it when I would go out there. You want a title shot? He's like, it's a title match. It's a match! So if you ever wonder what it's like to see a six-foot-eight, three hundred pound behemoth get chewed out, you should've been there.

I have been listening to a lot of Jim Cornette lately and two Vince anecdotes that come to mind are (1) he had someone over to fix the sound on his tv and tipped him a benjamin after being shown what the mute button is and (2) he hasnt bought his own groceries since 1983.

i worked for a vince mcmahon once, in the space of 14 months years i got promoted from never having worked in my industry to managing 14 people, revenue was up, costs were down, by all measurable...measurements i was kicking rear end. the boss one morning asked how i was out on the sales floor and i said 'fine' instead of 'loving FANTASTIC YOU poo poo EATING rear end in a top hat' and i got called in to his office for a 45 minute dressing down about morale

i worked for another vince mcmahon once who hired me as a trainer because he was terrible with people. after a year and a half of glowing reviews from everyone i worked with he came to sit in on one of my trainings and then bitched me out for three hours when we got back to the office about how i was a too smart college kid who no one could tell anything because i didnt present stuff in the exact order he wanted it presented in

Considering that Vince spends half of his week on the road and the other half of the week shoving people into pools #2 is totally plausible.

I once worked for this haggard woman whose leadership strategy was to tell everyone they did a terrible job because that's the only way people will keep working hard.

She got fired after the third hostile work environment claim.

I was at Smackdown live... LIVE. That main event match was incredible. Just loving stellar. Becky's match with Mickie was also awesome. I'm sad I was on the opposite side of the arena from Dean blowing up.

Also, if Harper gets added to the Mania match my gloating is going to be endless. ENDLESS. I may have been dead wrong about the most logical thing to be making Harper champion and do have him fight Orton directly, but I was on the right track and all y'all were pooping in my mouth for even considering Harper seeing the Mania main event.

Untrue, he also eats his weight in hamburgers, and will loving cut you if you put ketchup on 'em after he asks you not to. I think his personal website used to have a section where he reviewed such things.

There are still 6 episodes of Smackdown before Mania, if Harper wins the BR it'll be a one on one match on SD with a gently caress finish, sorry.

Also i dont understand the backlash against Sable: She is loving hot and its not like they were booking women beyond tits and rear end tv.

Naomi on the other hand still botchs like crazy and almost killed Alexas ribs this past sunday. Also she injured herself.

What im saying is bring back Sable or Eva Marie and fire Naomi.

What? Jericho was way more evil. He was the one always doing the cheating, usually with a crazed look of bloodlust on his face, and he went back for beat down and such more often than Owens, and he put Owens on the list way back at the start before the "I'm pretending to betray you" scheme. Plus he actually codobroke Owens even if it was for a good reason and Owens immediately forgave him. Jericho was by far more evil despite the face pops the list and his catchphrases were getting.

Oh yeah if we're talking quantity Jericho wins. I think Owens is more violent than Jericho and more condusive to the "heel loses belt, lashes out" angle, which I thought they were gonna do. As soon as Jericho got the list over he was destined to come out face IMO.

Well honestly a bigger concern for why Owens should have been the face was the news of the Goldberg match, in which I was sure he would only be allowed offense and not being squashed if he was on the verge of a face turn. From the more important story perspective though, losing out on his promised Mania main event slot because Owens valiantly fought but lost would have been a perfect motive for Jericho to turn. and the post-Manian main event scene being Braun, Brock, Joe and we were hoping Heel Roman meant a fresh Face was badly needed against that lineup and Owens would have been perfect, especially since his friction with Seth and Sami would have made for good story opportunity.

Instead it seems we are doomed to still hated Face Roman who also retired the Undertaker and Owens playing 4th fiddle as a US champ who will doubtless continue to cheat and not win after a Jericho match with little heat because of Goldberg killing him before it happens.

Honestly, I hope I'm wrong, but I think that's the most likely future. At least he'll hopefully have some good content with Joe as Team Fat-thority
