Maybe Vince saw Dynamite make the Top 100 TV Guide shows and thought "stagnant storytelling? I'll cram a story into one episode, how's THAT for stagnant?!?" Meanwhile we still don't know how the Hangman/Elite break-up is going to shake out after six months and counting.

When I mentioned to my wife that WWE was forcing their superstars to stop third-party streaming, my 15-year old daughter burst out of her room, stormed downstairs, and proclaimed to both of us "that's the dumbest thing I've ever heard!" I am not making this up. Maybe there is hope for the future.

Paper Lion posted:cant wait for another 50 years when the only decent places to live with breathable air and foliage are inside of a megacorporation's arcology With an all-controlling, all-seeing AI who eventually shut down all outside access so they could have complete internal control over everyone still trapped inside. One of my favorite Shadowrun plots of all time.

I just watched Re-Animator and the director of the film said there was a lot of stuff in the script that was cut before filming because "they explained things that didn't need explaining." Vince seems to be either the opposite ("we need to justify this! Wild card rule! Once a quarter!") or its anti-thesis ("Retribution? They're pissed off and probably black!").

Apparently tonight isn't just RAW, it's RAW: IN YOUR FACE! And it's gonna get slaughtered by football. New York's the #1 media market in the country and the Steelers probably have the biggest fanbase outside of their home city. Pittsburgh's a great place to grow up but everyone tries to get out of there as fast as possible. (says the guy who, in his mid-40s, is kind of missing it)

Update - the first football game is still close and now they're about to kick off the second game.

Jerusalem posted:[*] Otis arrived and beat the poo poo out of them with Tucker's aid, and pantsed Miz. "How can you not laugh at this?" asked Michael Cole, who gets his lines fed to him by Vince McMahon. Now compare this to the simplicity of Sue flipping the bird at the end of Dynamite and the response from the announcers being nothing more than laughter.

Next week's Monday Night Football game is the Chiefs (defending champs) vs. the Ravens, two top-tier teams with dynamic quarterbacks and rabid fanbases. Based on how crappy last night's show was, I'm going to predict that RAW's going have a record-breakingly bad night next week. That gentle slope of downward ratings is about to plunge off a cliff.

P&P/Best Friends didn't stop for two minutes in their parking lot brawl to jawjack.
