I love how clear this screams "promoting the fight" but if you read the comments it has people actually concerned the fight is off and Connor is running from it. I wish we had that level of promotion and believability in wrestling

So Alexa Bliss explained that the reason she turned on Bray Wyatt and the Fiend was that, and I'm paraphrasing here a little bit, she can do the gimmick better than Bray can.

Finally sat down and watched WALTER/Ciampa.

I very much appreciate that WALTER's finisher is "hitting you with moves until you stop wrestling." Like there's no big babyface comeback. No fired up sequence where the face hits a series of moves only to get "caught" by a heel's finisher. WALTER just starts hitting move after move after move until the face just can't go anymore. I looked up the finish and saw WALTER hitting a sleeper suplex then one chop and thinking it was kind of weak, but watching the full match the context for it is perfect.

Still want to see WALTER/Thatcher at some point.

805k, 0.22 in the demo for NXT unopposed

Definitely an uptick in viewership. Demo is unchanged from last week, which was abnormally high for them though to be fair.

Moving nights seems to already be paying off. Your move AEW

Releasing Samoa Joe absolutely sucks, but I guess they don't want to put him back in the ring at this point (and his salary was too big to keep at commentary).

Vince: Let's split up this group for no good reason, because I see star potential in one of them.

Vince, a week later: Actually nevermind, we'll push someone else.

Vince, even more later: We need to get rid of these losers who didn't get over on their own.

Just completely baffling stuff. Billie and Peyton together are completely valuable though and will be a boon anywhere they go.

First they take away champion of champions, Batista-busting Billie Kay a few hours after she loses her first match of season 3, and then they get rid of RAW Women's Champion Peyton Royce.

AND NOW JOEY HEADROCKER IS GONE?!
