What is it going to take for them to finally give Rusev the ball? He's great in the ring, great on the mic, charismatic as hell, fans won't stop chanting for him, and he's got the number one selling shirt in the company. For gently caress sake, Jinder has had more title reigns than him this year.

Rusev will get over whatever dumb poo poo they throw at him, he's pretty consistently done that for his entire career. If they weren't completely blind and also stubborn and vindictive he'd be top guy right now and it's going to rule when he finally leaves WWE and takes over NJPW.

Every time I see Goatse, I think of Maureen. That's the last thing I saw. Before I blacked out. The sight of that man's anus.

Remember right before Sandow got released he dropped all his gimmicks and got "serious" and wore plain black trunks? He wasn't able to get that poo poo over.

They went from their semi annual honoring of The Ultimate Warrior to buy Finn's new rainbow gear in 3 days.

He did that for exactly one night and gave a promo about being his own man and then went right back to impersonating poo poo with Axel

Lol at WWE running a spectacular mega show and not allowing the women to compete. I understand the cultural dissonance, but that seems pretty hosed up.

Yeah, it is pretty funny after two years or so of the “Women’s Revolution” and all that being severely undercut by this, especially with what a big deal the Rumble is. Also the fact that Saudi Arabia is currently terrorizing Yemen and the new Prince is being paraded around America by guys like the Rock as a “reformer” when that fucker is the war criminal responsible for the atrocities in Yemen, and we’re about to start another war in the Middle East. It’s really quite empty feeling.

Might be the only place where the McMahons would get face reactions for their "you work for us, we own you wrestlers and you would be broke without us" rants.
