Hey guys the wild card is only 3 members of the other show. So we got Roman, Daniel, Kofi, Elias and Lars... Let’s all count to three together.
Backlash tonight is crazier than normal, I'm going to tune in for the main event to see what I've missed out on
At this point i want to watch the World(WE) burn. I want ratings to dip below 2.0, cause a panic as SD moves to Fox, and force Vince to retire/cede creative control to HHH.
Its really hard to establish storylines with Vince randomly deciding to rewrite the show a few hours before it goes live. They got lucky and had Becky and the Kofi angles basically fall into their laps and the fans forcing it on them otherwise they wouldn't have had shit for WM. And now with the shows tanking Vince is probably going to blame it on Kofi and Becky not drawing and take the titles off them
Promos tonight felt less scripted tonight. There trying some different things but largely the same boring stuff. They need to keep Cory on one brand. Would be nice if the removed Cole as well from RAW. Would help a stale product sound different
Trouble is it's going to take a year of steady improvement to win back viewers and turn the tide into a positive direction. Vince's attention span will kill it in a week and a half.
I’m with you at this point and Vince needs to step away. The investors started to ask questions about creative when they announced a bad Q1. But Q2 is going to have the Saudi boost so I’m guessing the heat will die down. And thus more Vince
Watched the PBA playoffs on FS1 last night. Bowling was more entertaining to watch than Raw. Good job Vince
I wasnt on board with AEW at first to be honest but I slowly came around and after what we've got lately from WWE, I'm fully on team AEW coming in and stealing as many fans and talent as they can from WWE. Fuck WWE, they deserve to lose fans at this point. Maybe it will be a wake up call but it appears that WWE is panicking and getting worse instead of rising to the challenge so far.
Well this is something I learned today. JR talking about working with The Brain: Spoiler Heenan [was one of the nicest guys] because he’s my partner. We got to know each other and love each other. And we loved smokin’ weed. It made him calm down because he got a little high strung. Bobby would get offended by the booking. He was an old-school guy. So now, we’re having to make sense out of Duke the Dumpster or The Repo Man or whatever in the character. Not the human being playing the role, but the god damn character. Sometimes we’d get frustrated. We used to have a code word when we smoked pot. I’ve never told this before, ‘chocolate cake.’ He’d say, ‘Hey, redneck! Your wife making that chocolate cake?’ So, I knew what he wanted. ‘Let’s go for a ride. I need to calm down and chill, then come back and we’ll do our voice-overs.’ So, we’d come back and we’d three Challenge shows every three weeks. And the day before we were there, it would be Vince and his partner on Superstars, Randy or Piper or whomever. So, that was always funny too because when Vince and Randy or Vince and Piper would do the VOs, they’d bring in catering at the TV. It would be some pasta, some marinara sauce, some salads; real healthy, clean stuff. And the crew would call out and get all the food because we didn’t eat theirs. So, when Vince would go back in the room, they’d have that food come in, so they could be eating a cheeseburger or whatever they wanted, right? Well, when me and Heenan did the voice-overs, catering’s an entirely different deal. We had potato salad, we all kinds of fatty ass food and dessert and chocolate cake. So that was our code word. Chocolate cake was our code word. But Bobby was great there
Even Conrad can’t fix the JR podcast. That episode was tough to keep interested in. JR also confirmed he’s going to be lead announcer. I know some weren’t sure if he was going to be a backstage management or be on air. Looks like he’s the voice of AEW
I think most agree on this... I’m sure there going for the throw back. JR debut for WWE lead announcer in Vegas for WM 9 and he will do the same for AEW in Vegas.
Smackdown so far has been good. Mustafa and Almas can be hooked right into my veins. Two great video packages for Ali and Roman
That was a good match... never thought I would see Daniel Bryan carried in a match. USO’s are so fucking good. Every time I see Rowan I think of how they fucked up and should’ve selected Harper for the role
I watch like 0 wrestling since WM, but is Vince's new project Lars like a mega racist? fuck that dude, he's generic as shit and I don't have time for bigots.
