I think at this point we're in sort of a symbiotic relationship where posters enter the WWE mines and bring back nuggets of amusement for other posters, and feel they have entertained those posters, thus are paid to return to the mines. Also Darkstar really likes joshi wrestlers and pines for a reality where WWE treats them with equivalency to their value to the company.

Darkstar, if Io and Kairi go elsewhere, be that AEW or Stardom, would you stop watching WWE?

Haven't seen Braun in a while, does he always look like he's in pain every step on the way to the ring?

The revenue split between owner and players in all the major unionized sports leagues are in the 45-50% range for the players. I can't remember exactly what Dave said it was for WWE but I think it was in the 10-20% range and most of that is Brock. Becky has been the face of the women's division for a long time now and she main evented Wrestlemania. I feel like with a union she'd be making 10+ million easy.

Her RAW heel push, still need RAW face, Smackdown face, and Smackdown heel pushes for 3-6 months each. Then at the end she'll decide she doesn't wanna be blonde anymore like Carmella and whelp.

I hate the beat the champ for a championship match poo poo. If the champ is pinned clean in a solo match he should lose the belt.

Shouldn't put Sheamus hype package on right after Braun and Cesaro. All I'm remembering now is him losing to a 10 year old. Well here we go, we got another 'I'm big and you're small!" heel since Cass is gone and Corbin is busy performing a writer's humiliation fetish stuff.

The WWE trope of someone pinning the champion in a non title match to win a shot at the title is so loving dumb. Much worse than automatic rematches.

It'd be cool once in a while to show a cocky champion underestimating his opponent and being surprised when he let his guard down. I'm gonna assume Shinsuke and his two friends that were also getting beaten up weren't underestimating Braun.

Part of Roman's intro accomplishments card being "Relative of The Rock" is cute. You'd think he's done enough in the last decade to fill a card without bringing that up. I wonder if Nia Jax's card will be "Relative of The Rock", "Beat a 90 pound woman at Wrestlemania in about 20 minutes", and "Accidentally got someone more famous by punching them in the face".

"Pin the champion to get a title shot" works well in stuff like the G1, I think it's a fine trope. WWE is just bad.

We successfully got through a whole main roster WWE show without a thread specifically for it  definitely the first time in years, even taped ones usually get a thread and 2-3 pages out of it

This was the first smackdown I've been home to watch in weeks and weeks and it was so boring I wanted to die. I love what they've done with Sasha Banks! Her not even being on the show at all even though that's what they apparently advertised is great! I hope everyone fights over who likes dog food the most forever.
