Where does NXT find them and why do they keep sending them to ME?!

I love him and he is perfect and he needs to break away from Brexit Billy.

I'm morbidly curious to see the world where Kota and ZSJ signed with WWE during the Cruiserweight Classic

Kota would either be a 24/7 geek or world champion. ZSJ would be sent back to the performance centre to gain weight. Zack wouldn’t be heard from again although he would remain under contract.

Did Cobb not win a medal and perhaps that’s why he was slotted with the Indy guys?

I have really enjoyed that WWE has let Sheamus, Drew, and Lashley just be big hosses and they go hard when facing each other and some other guys like Keith Lee before Vince decided he didn't like him. Sheamus and Lashley was pretty good and they legit looked like they were beating the poo poo out of each other, and probably were to some level. Drew and Lashley should be pretty good, and they should deliver a match that's just two big hosses unleashed. It's like the few times Brock had matches that went longer than five minutes, where it's a type of match that WWE doesn't really do and it looks and feels different from other ones.

Remember how the only good match that Tensai had was when he and Sheamus went out and beat the poo poo out of each other and it was a really fun hoss off? I don't know why they didn't stick with Sheamus doing that with big dudes for a long loving time.

Testekill posted:I remember it being a pretty good brawl, TNA Lashley at that point in time was a beast Because Sheamus also does poo poo like kick a tooth out of a stationary Jeff Hardy's mouth. Like Sheamus can only do stiff hoss fights, nothing else. He was also great as the first rival to Reigns after his first title win.

A question: Has Shane held WWE gold? Ever? I know he is "best in the world", but has he held a belt? I can't seem to remember him ever getting even an Intercontinental or US belt. Stephanie though, is a multiple time Womens Champion.

Hey I don’t watch WWE sorry but I am going to assume and of course, be so correct but I assume Peyton Royce just got a title program out of this below: https://twitter.com/wwe/status/1369141893624434690?s=21 So she got a massive push from this. I saw everybody talking about it. Clearly it worked?

TV Zombie posted:Did Cobb not win a medal and perhaps that’s why he was slotted with the Indy guys? That Cobb tryout story just strikes me as WWE separating recruits between amateurs and trained pros because you'd look for different things in them and send them to different levels of training. And Cobb clearly belongs in the pro group.

Auska vs Shayna was pretty decent. Shayna nearly accidentally concussed Auska again but I think she was okay and the spot of her murdering Shayna was cool. Probably would've been a good midcard Wrestlemania match if it was 10 minutes longer.

Specifically, Sasha Banks and Bayley were allegedly the only people who gave a single poo poo about making tag titles, had a bunch of pitches and plans to use them across the wwf's shows, only to lose them like a month later at wrestlemania to the Iconics. This cause Sasha Banks to flee to Meiko Satomura's Sendai Girls promotion and otherwise go off the wwf grid for a while before eventually returning to the cult. It is also the source of the "Sasha Banks and Bayley were seen lying on the floor of the hotel at Wrestlemania crying" story.

You have to forgive Shauna, she’s a 40 year old Rookie. Needs more seasoning. That’s why it’s really good she’s teaming with Nia Jax

When Shayna kicked Asuka, you could see she immediately went down on her to check if she was okay/wanted to apologize. If she actually had any experience like Nia Jax or Charlotte, she would have known that if you injure your opponent you try to injure her further and don't care about her wellbeing.

I just saw today that people with the network aren't automatically getting Peacock accounts? They're going to lose so many subscribers in this transition.

explosivo posted:I just saw today that people with the network aren't automatically getting Peacock accounts? They're going to lose so many subscribers in this transition. They're also cutting people off at the end of their billing cycle, if it is before the shutdown date of the 4th, and giving people with gift cards credit if they apply for it. So, many people who want to continue to use the network up until the day it dies in the US will be unable to. I'm sure that will make their loyal customers happy. Given this, I'm now even more glad that the copies of 2004 shows that I am watching are now slightly more ethically sourced from a place that doesn't make trips to Saudi Arabia, as I wouldn't enjoy dealing with this clusterfuck. Apparently, according to a test that a friend of mine tried and showed me screenshots of, they are also banning logins to US-American accounts from UK and some other country's IPs. So, if people want to continue to use with VPNs, they will have to open a new account, instead of just changing billing info to fake it, if that will even still work. As I enjoy hearing about a good corporate clusterfuck when I'm not forced to deal with it, my fun chaos option that I am lightly predicting a chance of is tons of accounts of people in non-US countries being accidentally shutdown because WWE is generally incompetent and because so many people have been using VPNs to get deals and access from other countries that WWE may not even be slick enough to know who they should block from where and how.
