Only if TJ Wilson is allowed to agent and book the match. I have no faith in anybody else to do the job even remotely correctly.

It will be Johnny Ace who books the match. That's how we know it'll be bad by default.

I've been involved in a number of cults, both as a leader and a follower.

You have more fun as a follower. But you make more money as a leader.

Unless something drastically changes in the next two weeks, this will be the first time since 2003 that John Cena isn't on the SummerSlam card. That's pretty crazy, especially since there's been zero hints about him wrestling or even appearing on the show.

The end of the Cena era really snuck up on us, huh

He quietly broke a six year losing streak when he beat Corbin in the opener last year too.

That tag match was loving great, and I enjoyed it deeply, and I want to just be more excited for more of it.

But The Usos feuded with and lost the titles to The New Day, who then took the titles back from The Usos, who then took the titles back from The New Day, who then took the titles back from The Usos, who then took the titles back from The New Day, and then the Bludgeon Brothers showed up and won the belts, and now they're going to be defending them against The New Day, who earned their shot by defeating The Bar and The Usos.

It's not like I don't adore them, they're two of the best teams in wrestling history, but it's been this constant back and forth for like a year and a half now and I was really enjoying the tag team championship not involving those same two teams forever.

Zayn/Owens should have taught the audience that when they chant "fight forever" watching a match, WWE takes that as a challenge and you never get to see its participants advance beyond that

He's been jobbing for a while, but honestly.....it's never seemed satisfying. Never had that cathartic, this-is-the-end loss. Just all of a sudden started getting put down by one finisher by, like, everyone.

Eh, doubt it. I know you are making fun of me with that, but Charlotte is already a 7x women's champion (and they'll probably have her break Trish's record at Wrestlemania next year against Ronda). And they seem to love giving Charlotte first time ever accolades.

Meh, I feel the same as I did during the record breaking reign: as long as the New Day keep being the most entertaining thing on their show, I really don't care if they're in the title scene forever.

He's honestly had several "this is the end" losses where he looked sad, left his arm band in the ring, gave a speech that sounded like the end... only to just show up again and have it all be ignored.

Remember when they threw away Roman vs. Cena at No Mercy and it loving sucked because they laid it out (and Brock vs. Braun) specifically to build Roman vs. Brock at WM34?

The amount of poo poo they sacrificed for that match just to have Brock win clean and keep the reign going is dizzying.
