Yup!

That's actually a large part of why I think he was so effective at the 92 Rumble. I think in his head him being commentary was temporary and he was going to go back to managing Flair.

Ah, but Main Roster is something entirely different.

All that is once great down in NXT is "sanitized" when they "go upstairs".


Has nothing to do with Sanitation.

NXT is a pre taped show where you have the ability to rehearse your big matches. The Grind of the main roster makes it so that's not possible unless you can rehearse during house shows (which they've stopped doing in the advent of live event reports)

Whats amazing to me about henan is that he didnt want to be a commentator.

If he didnt end up developing back issues he would have stayed a manager and that would have been tragic.

What WWE does really well: props and presentation.

It feels like a really big fucking deal in the way that say Impact and ROH do not.

They have individually very talented performers and good matches in isolation (this is why 205 Live is routinely the most praised section of the show)

Where they struggle is characters and overall direction. I don't think WWE being petty scumbags hurts them TOO badly because its wrestling; they're all petty scumbags.

But if they magically werent that would be an asset too.

Every single problem with the show comes down to the fact that its build was shit.

Do you agree with me that people who think in those terms have minimal business holding political power/running a country? Because to me, that mindset seems like a real easy way to run things into the ground, regardless of actual views and policy positions.


I think there is value in promoting those who hold right wing views that don't think of everything in terms of partisan warfare because ultimately our country cant be good unless both parties are reasonable options for running the country. Ultimately that's not the case right now but the Rs only really tipped super hard this direction in 2010, though its been an undercurrent since Reagan.

This is why I find red sox and SephG to be utterly reprehensible as they only think in terms of the game.

But like I'd with 0 thought involved vote for Tom Bombadil.

I think it needs to be understood that in the Republican psyche this is all just payback for Clinton because those are the terms they think in.

Republicans are literally still using Ted Kennedy's leadership of the opposition to Borks nomination to the Supreme Court as justification for stonewalling Garland.

To them that's still tit for tat and thats just how they think

Thought on Raw tonight. Braun said that he was going to cash in next time Brock is there. Angle said that Brock has to show up tomorrow night or get stripped of the title. Does Braun attempt a cash in tomorrow night?

I don't see Lesnar dropping the belt right now, since it needs to be a bigger event after all of this, but it should be interesting.


Given what we discussed last night and given how...dead his push is with the crowd, feeding Lashley to Brock seems logical.

This show in general was plagued by an utter lack of heat top to bottom.

None of these feuds were hot. Not a single one. Owens/Braun was past its expiration date, Rusev/Styles was a nothing feud. Bludgeons/Hell No and Ziggler/Rollins are just getting going and neither was particularly intriguing. Reigns/Lashley has 0 heat despite a lot of effort and time invested. Nak/Hardy barely qualified as a feud at all.

Just a nothing show made somewhat memorable by a really stupid crowd gimmick.

I'll be the bad guy and say I would probably be trolling it if I were there because of the poor card placement and not caring a lick about Rollins vs Ziggler as a build even if they can work.

However I didn't even watch the PPV so I mean, yeah I'm of the feeling that you should be doing something better with your time if that's how you're approaching the show. Speak with your wallets not stupid chanting.


Yeah this match had 0 heat, it was a match guaranteed to go long and went on last (not sins by themselves but again, no heat), and while it was well worked....that's not enough anymore in WWE and this match was of a type where you couldn't do a WWE lazy false finish fest to keep the crowd guessing.

They have an embarassment of riches to the point where I am not certain Ziggler is even a top 20 worker in this company.

This match was destined to be ill-received and I only regret that the crowd made it all about them because I think if they didn't we would just be talking about the big wet fart that this match was and puzzling over AJ Styles not closing out the show.

China is also pursuing painful austerity at the moment trying to purge consumer debt which is also putting a weight on their economy in the short term for long term sustainability.

Regardless no one was arguing that a trade war wasn't going to hurt China - its just also going to hurt us (and already is, cue the dozens of Articles titles "<STATE THAT WENT FOR TRUMP>'s Farmer's feel betrayed by Trump tariffs")

Its literally a sinking tide lowering all ships.

So like, have they said at all what they're meeting about? All I remember seeing was Trump insisting that part of the meeting would have no other Americans in the room, not even an American translator.


Not only is there no published agenda....there's no agenda AT ALL.

Other than the infamous July 4 meeting there has been no prep for this.

Jon Huntsman, aka the US Ambassador to Russia, just went on Meet The Press to say the meeting was to be "more of a conversation" and that he hoped it would be one about finding areas of common interest

So I guess no one really knows.
