Exactly. If he accepted the fact that he's in his mid-forties he wouldn't look so depressing. I'm thirty-seven and it would be like wearing my lovely Hot Topic wardrobe from high school when I go to the grocery store.

Yeah, I think that's what is getting to me. His gimmick makes him look worse. Reminds me of an uncle who is trying too hard to stay relevant.

Even at the age of sixteen I thought this was some creepy as gently caress sex thing where Michael Hayes was suffering from a mid-life crisis and forcing his underage proteges to perform.

I've got the scoops. Here is a new Jeff Hardy PSA (from the terms of his latest probation)

"Hey there fellow youths. Let's rap! You know what is extreme and awesome to the Max? Staying in school and saying No to drugs. Staying sober is totally radical!"

2019. October 2019 was his second DUI in a years time. First DUI recently was March 2018 then he got arrested for public intox in July 2019. So second bit of trouble in 2019 but at least it is his only DUI in 2019.

I would bet that this is the sole reason he did it.

“Man, the rest of this poo poo sucks. But if I can just get my jam on the theme song...yeah I’m signing let’s do this.”

Now that he’s signed though, I think he knows he will get tv time for the next two months and then back to catering for the remaining 4 years and 10 months. Good opportunity to make sure his health is good.

I don't really want to say it in such a harsh way. He's a solid performer, still, and a goofy character for the mid-card.

But yeah, I'm glad he's not going to AEW. They have way too many people I'd rather see. Like Griff Garrison.

I never liked Jeff outside of TLC 1-4. His weird clothes and that he does like 6 different kinds of art and is bad at all of them got to me.

I know this will be unpopular here to even say but it's baffling to me how WWE can have such a good show in Smackdown and such a terrible show in RAW with the same loving guy writing it. For me the best show on tv weekly alternates between Smackdown and Dynamite but RAW is always the worst, below NXT, below IMPACT, even below Dark.

Why the gently caress is Dominik fighting Seth again? Imagine if Cena had 30 matches with Angle after that first one where he debuted, we wouldn't even be talking about Cena right now because he'd be selling insurance somewhere, he'd never have made it. It's like they've just given up on the RAW brand entirely.

Honestly, I feel like it's the opposite problem. WWE puts a lot of effort into making sure Raw is exactly what they want it to be, while Smackdown has most of the performers at the top of the card that have some amount of creative freedom and ability. The only person who reliably feels like they have both those things on Raw is Rey, and he's still stuck in the Misterio vs Rollins vortex.

This is definitely a recent thing. Like Raw at the start of this year was wayyyyyy better than anything on Smackdown bar DB.

It used to amaze me how WWE has a massive pool of talented performers and should be moving through feuds on a short cycle to look for ones with good chemistry to build longer term stories with. It just seems so obvious. Throw people together and find what works. And look for big matches to build PPVs around. Drive people to the product with what is known to work and find what does.

But then you realize, Vince doesn't process his product like that. There just is or is not a feud between two wrestlers. There is no build, nor progression. Like Drew is feuding with Orton and that will continue until it doesn't. It doesn't matter who wins or loses. The belt may or may not change hands. Dream matches like AJ vs Finn, the one we all got excited about? Yeah, he doesn't plan toward or plan to use any of those. They carry no meaning to Vince.

yea ok
