Watching you sleep.

Butt first, let's
check the feeds.

I appreciate that HHH made absolutely no mention of the global pandemic or national emergency that neceessitated this but instead just made it a commercial for how awesome WWE and the Performance Center is.

WWE being a good corporation and trying to profit off of tragedy.

They're cutting promos like they're playing to a full house. It's kind of off-putting.

Its like watching people who were told to do something you gotta assume knew this would be awkward but they're still doing it because they feel like they have to.

Having HHH sitting right there and be the one they play directly to really hammers it home.

i don't mind them not mentioning covid-19, wrestling is escapism for many (including me) and forgetting about all the poo poo that's grinding me down for a couple of hours while i yell about wrestling on the internet is a good thing

They're gonna see ratings bumps because there's no other live programming/sports and people will be curious about this bizarre weirdness.

They should have had at least the PC students in the crowd. It would give it a very Chikara vibe.
