I am so sick of that loving word. It's worse than THE BIG DOG.

Also that Balor segment was loving bizarre unless they're actually doing Balor/Lesnar, and if they are then I dunno what they'll do with Roman. I'm guessing Braun's injury made them shuffle things around.

they probably are doing balor/lesnar as a stopgap because lesnar was originally going to face strowman at the ppv

do any of the angles on raw have any heat on them? i watched backlash and while i thought some of the matches were good, i didn't actually *care* about who won any of them. then i remembered i felt this way about payback too. basically i just watched them hoping for a good match or two and the spectacle (nakamura debut, house of horrors clusterfuck)

I enjoyed watching it, and posting, but nothing stands out. Finn Balor had a match with his old NJPW mate Karl Anderson to no fanfare, Heyman tried some character work buttering up Finn for whatever reason. Goldust did one of his old school director's chair vignettes, and that was cool. Also lol at your new av.

And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.

And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.

They play wrestler themes a lot. Watching them in the playoffs I've also heard Owens and Zayn's themes.

To reinforce this: part of why I hate the Jinder push is that it's both Race baiting, asking for bigotry, and works only if they think the Indian fans are drat idiots.

It takes only the tiniest of intelligence to realise that Jinder is an rear end in a top hat who doesn't deserve the title. Plus the simplest of wikipedia search to find out he's Canadian.


Any female opinions confirm/deny: Jinder is an ugly man with a large nose. Then again, large nose didn't stop HHH from being a sex symbol to a lot of ladies.

Because he won only via the help of 2 other people, Indians should hate the guy just the same.

Team Canada Bret Hart had flunkies that helped him, and he talked about how America is a deeply flawed nation, but he could be respected due to his actual skill and years of hard work. At least I think that's how it went, feel free to correct me on that, but this doesn't feel like a heel in America, face everywhere else kind of situation.

He was really stiff with main eventers for no reason? Concussed Finn, I'm amazed he didn't concuss Roman on a dropkick he gave him like 2 weeks before that. The actual guy is probably nice enough, I think most people just think he not deserve the push based on his ability, and the reasons why he is getting it anyway are awful/terrifying.
