It wasn't a good match, it wasn't a bad match, it was THE a match.

Fixed that for you.

There was nothing good or bad about it. It was just...there.

Kind of like HHH/Reigns last year.
 
Now that Gotch is no more, guessing the Vaudevillians stable is pretty much done for.

They should send Aiden English back to NXT to get him repackaged. He can probably be an asset as a singles competitor down there.

Yea just saw the news. That's nuts. Gotch just never recovered once he got heat in the back it seems. Such a shame. I feel for English cause he didn't do anything wrong and now he's paying the price for Gotch's bullshit.

SOmetimes I sit down and think about wrestling and get so lost in trying to understand the logic of the performers, companies, and fans that it just leaves me awestruck.

Like who the fuck actually likes Steph? Who the fuck likes a roster full of heels and no babyface? Why wouldn't you sell for somebody and sabatoge the show? Why wouldn't you protect your business? Why are Brits so ok with the WWE trying to destroy their wrestling market? Why does the WWE have a commentary team that bad when they are probably the most important part of the production? Why do fans bring fake title belts to live shows? Was the Wall a shoot? Why do people not want wrestling to be built around confrontation and a fight?

so whats going on with the UK title? I thought for sure we would have a Bate v Dunne rematch for the title at Takeover.

Is he defending the title in Evolve or something?

There was a couple of title matches at Axxess if I remember right

Edit: Wait what happened with Gotch? Mutual release?

The press release says mutual. Odds are Gotch realized his heat screwed him and WWE knew he wasn't gonna go anywhere and so both agreed it was time to part ways.

I was watching the dark match of Nakamura and I couldn't avoid feeling sad for Ziggler. After such an epic entrance and the public going crazy for it, seeing the very same crowd completely dead when you make your own entrance must feel bad for your ego.

I guess you learn to deal with it as a professional (or take the door out).

Wrestling is about WOW, WTF, AND LOL.

In that sense, it accomplishes all this for me.

I don't want AJ Styles to go to Raw, but if he must:

Styles + Ziggler + Alexa for Sami + New Day + Sasha.

Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"
I'm watching a random episode of NXT from 2012 and heel Roman Reigns just came out in trunks and does the whole match while screaming at the crowd. William Regal mentions Roman main eventing WrestleMania during the match.

Do you actually dislike the Miz or just think he is overrated?

Overrated is not my jam. I never let others' opinions color my own, like some people.

And I'm milking a dead cow here, but I just don't find him believable at all. I appreciate that he's hard into his schtick, but I'm still not a fan. It doesn't upset me if you guys agree or disagree. We're all still best friends.

Nakamura is that dude tho. Like, he's going to be amazing against others. He's the kind of guy who can MAKE heels because he's so great.

After the match Roman beats up the jobber more then gets on the mic and tells Byron Saxron that Byron would pay all of his money to look like him.
