Watched last night's Raw.
Lacey Evans has zero heat. The crowd do not care for her at all, not even go away heat. She does also suck massively on the mic.
Poor EC3 - jobbed the fuck out by Braun. Not seen anyone treated so badly since the Ascenscion.

Indeed. More of Vince's meddling with NXT callups.
Renaming them individually as Erik and Ivar was also unecessary.

Seriously they need to get shot of Vince now. He is clearly fucking things up.

Apparentley, they were going to be called The Beserkers. It seems like the network didn't want something with "War" in its name. IIRC the team were called War Machine before being brought onto NXT TV.
The 'War' thing also goes as far back to War Games and it being brought back as an NXT event. So far NXT have knocked it out the park with both the War Games shows so far.
I'm also hoping Vince will turn more attention towards the XFL revival if it ever gets off the ground.

That DoN card is shaping up nicely. The biggest loss WWE has had since Jericho's signing. They now have nobody left with thier level of experience and training.
About to watch the latest farewell from The Shield.
Edit: In other WWE news...
• moved Aleister, Zelina and Andrade to SD • moved Cesaro to RAW • changed The Viking Experience to The Viking Raiders

I'm liking the new direction for Bray Wyatt. It's not like he can go back to any of his past gimmicks and is in the best shape than before.

AEW are more than welcome to produce a new show for Jeremy Kyle's now vacant timeslot.

Not a fan of this WWE Wild Card rule at all.
It seems to be a front to put Roman Reigns on both Raw and Smackdown. Its like his draft to Tuesdays never happened and he's a glorified free agent.

its a front for tanking ratings and the fact that fox wouldn't buy smackdown unless they wer eguaranteed all top stars from both shows

Just got up super early like I do most weekdays and watched the majority of Money in the Bank between the school-run. Men's ladder match ruined!!!

Watched AEW Double of Nothing.
Really good PPV. I'm encouraged by this and hopefully this is a sign they will learn from the mistakes of WCW/TNA/ROH and can be a successful promotion and a credible alternative to Vince.

Time will tell. AEW have started and started amazingly. I'm sure their journey will have some speedbumps along the way, but they'll thrive and strategize along the way.
The latest Talk is Jericho podcast is a must!

He pretty much details Vince's brand of humor that other frustrated talets have spoken about before. It's like what Ernest "The Cat" Miller once said that Vince cares more about entertaining himself than the fars.
No wonder that heel turn was so off.

The thing is. None of what he said is NEWS and that's the problem. Vince needs to be fucked off for the benefit of WWE.

So much for the 'Wild Card' Rule. At least 9 RAW wrestlers showed up on Smackdown. I bet it won't be long before Cesaro and Ricochet are paired as a tag team Firefly Funhouse was fun this week! Hoping to catch Super Showdown tomorrow.

So this was my first time listening to Talk Is Jericho. Gotta love the way he just let Moxley talk and occasionally interjected to tell us how much he loves steak, fresh cat litter and buying father's day presents.

Gotta keep them sponsors happy. I tune into Talk is Jericho on and off as well as Jim Cornette material on occasion. Super Showdown. Goldberg is allegedly getting a 2m payday for his match The Undertaker tonight/day. I'm not expecting the best match ever, but it could be a decent encounter if anything. Most of the bout time will probably be spent on entrances... Kofi VS Dolph has a lot of potential! I'm predicting that there's an oppurtunity for a returning Big-E to betray Kofi and realign with Ziggler. Then again, WWE have lost one profitable group in The Shield and probably might want to hang onto New Day for a bit longer.
