When I was 17, my father was so stupid, I didn't want to be seen with him in public. When I was 24, I was amazed at how much the old man had learned in just 7 years.

This is really, really good.

Awful/toxic friend Alexa is brutal, but well done. I actually care about a Nia Jax angle for the first time, and right after just being fairly annoyed about how awful she was in the Asuka match, too.

How loving stupid are people that they think there is literally any chance of either of these things happening?

Also did Brock actually have a family emergency? I haven't been keeping up with the news.

So the rumor is the cruiserweights get a tag belt now. Funny that the cruiserweights and women divisions are 90% tag matches with no tag belts. Least we finally get to see some gold around the waist of all those 205 guys who couldnt get on neville's level. I hope it goes to Gallagher and Gulak instead of Kalisto & Friends.

This might be a hot take, but a wrestling company can have multiple Mexican people on the roster at the same time.

They can, and already do! But I'm more talking from a perspective that WWE will only push one as the "Latin star" and the other will flounder on the midcard if they even can get on TV.

In that context, Del Rio is terrible and unreliable and insane. But then again, maybe they'll hire him and just use him sparingly or give him the Sin Cara treatment. Whatever

This is the company that passed on Ricochet a few years ago because they already had a flippy guy, Evan Bourne, and they didn’t need another.

I'm really glad that the audience seems to aggressively not give a poo poo about John Cena or Roman Reigns or Paul Heyman or Brock Lesnar right now because I sure don't.

They're really gonna have Roman call someone a bitch every single week from now to Mania, aren't they.

why does everyone praise Nash for being a loving grifter. like yeah great good for you, making a product worse by exploiting the business, but that doesn't make it more fun to watch for me.

because wrestling in general is a grift run by terrible people, and wwe is run by someone who has done countless awful things for workers

Nash rules because he sees through the system and doesn't take poo poo, while both being good to his fans and doing things like giving the Bucks advice

also yeah nash had his photo taken with a bunch of older lady fans and got really mad that people made fun of the picture because he's awesome

plus his long-time loyalty and concern for hall over the years (i recall him saying initially he was really worried that ddp was trying to scam hall, and is now thankful for what ddp did)

basically nash is the guy who if you're his friend he's the best friend ever

But anyway I think Nia would play a better face than heel because I think she's just too nice to pull off the monster heel gimmick, despite the rumors that she has a huge ego and is refusing to improve and running to the Rock for protection. Would it have been better if she spent a year or two in NXT? Sure, but she is also pretty old.

I have an exclusive scoop that Brock Lesnar was heard during negotiations saying, and I quote “I’m going to shoot on that bitch just like I did at Wrestlemania 31, but this time I won’t stop with the F5s until he’s dead”.
