I'm feeling something new...something...I'm happy??!!
I'm sure I'll go back to "joking" later but...

Jim Ross overcame Bells Palsy incidents, the WWE itself loving him over countless times, the loss of his mother, the loss of god knows how many friends and colleagues and now this. Like everything I've ever heard about good ole' JR is that he is a peach of a man, how much more poo poo does this guy have to put up with?

Anytime I need to see your face I just close my eyes
And I am taken to a place
Where your crystal minds and magenta feelings
Take up shelter in the base of my spine
Sweet like a chica cherry cola

GOD'S FAVORITE CHAMPION
That's the depressing thing about living to an old age, the tragedies just hit you like a tidal wave. It's like your whole life was training you to be able to survive that era of your life. And besides all of the unavoidable illness and death, there's still random unfortunate accidents that can happen on top of that.

Yes hello it is I Kurt's Secret Son


The person who hit her was a 17 year old boy, I feel sorry for him too. I caused a wreck when I was that young and even though nobody was hurt badly, I was still very shook up by it. Can't imagine this outcome.

Honestly, as a person who both drives and rides a scooter, I can see how easy it would be to rear end one. Poor guy (do you offer free mental health help in the US after events like this?).

Whether on a scooter/vespa or motorcycle, gear up as appropriately, and for everyone's sake please wear your helmet.

Free? Man, it's the US.

JR's going to get a multiple thousand dollar bill for watching his wife die.

Is it not illegal to not wear helmets on scooters? Or is it an infringement on your FREEDOM?

Poor JR, that's the absolute worst. He's always deserved better and life just keeps on kicking him.

There are states without helmet laws. Studies actually show less accidents in those states because drivers are more careful when they see a rider without a helmet. I don't know if Jan was in such a state, but not even a helmet will guarantee survival when a car crashes into a scooter.

Vince considers JR a friend, and Vince has really loving bizarre ideas of what is appropriate behavior with a friend (who is also an employee!)

Remember that time Vince made fun of his Bell's palsy on TV? What a great friend.

It may also have to do with JR being a nice dude and Vince being a steak-and-steroids golem powered by spite and rapacity. Like, if any of you know the fable of the scorpion and the frog? Vince is the scorpion in that story: he can't not be a fucker, I think.

I've got a pocket full of cheese🧀, and a garden full of trees🌴.

Nikki Bella is the worst performer in the Cena-Mizanin feud.

But she is being carried by 3 phenomenally entertaining motherfuckers.

I just saw the Talking Smack segment, and Cena is really good.

This is the fanboy in me talking - but I really really hope that both couples are friends, and they aren't hurting each others' feelings.

knowing what we know of backstage last weekend, i won't be shock if they in a pansexual partner swap.

EDIT: Chrome don't think pansexual is a real word, time to summon the tumbler legion to lay siege to silicon valley.
