And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.

The Ascension returned to NXT for one episode to fight American Alpha once. Viktor was smiling like a big ole adorable goof when he heard the NXT crowd actually responding to them. Funny which one of those two teams is still together today.

Said it before, say it again - Vince has, now and forever, believed that the hot tag in a tag team is the star of the team and in the 80s he would've pushed Robert Gibson solo if given the chance.

Billy Gunn showed that real well in the late 90s, even. The difference between then and now is that they really quickly dropped his big push.

It's always so sad and bizarre to see formerly buff muscle dudes old and thin. Lex Luger still freaks me out whenever I see him on something in his current form. I mean it's also sad to see old people get beaten up by a group of young people.

Speaking from experience, it took a post or two of "why are we even paying for this," combined with the waste of money that was seeing WM32 live that finally convinced me to drop the network and stick to recaps. If there was a segment that caught my attention, I'd youtube it. But ultimately, the WWE has been a complete garbage pile of a company for a really long rear end time now, and if the lovely PR doesn't bother you, if the lovely personnel moves don't bother you, at the very least I'd expect the week to week booking to be awful enough to make you reconsider your subscription. If that doesn't happen, and you stick with it and keep watching? I don't know what will change your mind, just ignore the haters and enjoy yourself.



If you're just hanging on to the Network for archival purposes, that's cool. I get it.

This was it for me. Daniel Bryan stopped, there was a bunch of booking I didn't like and DB's return hasn't been enough to bring me back. Simply better things I could spend my money on. But I don't care if anyone else gets it, certainly isn't my business.

On the otherhand, I'm looking forward to subbing to NJPW World again to watch Dominion. I'd get it now for the Super Junior's thing but I heard the english commentary wouldn't be until June 8 or sometime like that.

The thing that keeps me from checking out NJPW is that they're pretty bad wrt women, and even if they're being horribly mismanaged and squandered right now WWE's diva stable is really good.
