    I can't even comprehend the somewhat positive response this is getting. Garbage commentary, fine to good matches at best with the main event being a catastrophe. This is what a house show should be.

    I liked

    - Charly
    - Cage finish
    - 3 way
    - Joe/Ricochet

    With the standards everywhere else though this just doesn't cut it. Feel like I wasted my time and the *real* main event is tomorrow, even if it's probably gonna disappoint. Lame.

    The show wasn't bad at all, I liked it for the most part. AJ/Ricochet feud will be great

    I guess the cage match wasn’t horrible. It was average for wwe these days. Wish we saw some more high risk moves. The Rollins/Corbin match was a let down. Ik right away Becky was going to come out and help Rollins after the woman she beat was the special guest referee. It’s just too d--- predictable and that makes me not entertained.

    It seems the good matches you guys talking about i missed. I didn’t see the Joe match. Or the KO vs new day match. I thought the show didn’t start until 8 and didn’t tune in until a little after 8.

    Even the good matches are basic, patterned WWE matches. It's impossible to get into them, they're all the same. I've never seen a more boring cage match.

    I'm honestly done using free trials for this company (lol). The insecurity on Twitter bleeding from Seth and even Ricochet is f---ing embarrassing. He's right that the crew works hard, and he's being a good company man, but he may as well be comparing McDonald's to your favorite restaurant.

    No matter what other wrestling you like that's not them - it's better lol.

    Stomping grounds was a great show all things considering. It was a bunch of rematches but lots of them felt fresh. Xaviers stunner sell, kofis sneaky win and even the universal title match was good.

    Negative 6 stars for the main event

    Edit

    I'm gonna be stepping away from the wrestling world for a bit. Last night's show and the Seth fallout has reminded me how many people are still in the bubble, and I just can't deal with it. It's pure fantasy.

    No one tell pinhead that I enjoyed being at raw last night and I’m even going to smackdown tonight as well...lol.

    Can’t believe Taker showed up, that was the last thing I expected, was cool seeing him again.

    That Lacey Becky match was like a 1/10, Lacey wasn't in the right position for a a bunch of spots and Becky was calling every move loudly. Idk if they just have no chemistry or it was just a bad night? I've only seen one Lacey match so I can't tell if it all fell on her but f--- that was absolute garbage. They both have excellent characters though but I can't see Charlotte putting on such a boring match up. I'm only watching the PPV now and f--- I'm so happy Richocet has a belt, I do love Samoa Joe but giving the belt to Richocet was a good move since it'll get him even more over and hopefully indicate a rivlary. Joe's stiff style and Richocets athleticism go so well together. Also pleaaently surprised by the KO and Zayn win, perfect length and it's always dope to see good tag team action IN WWE. f--- I love KO's antics, give this man the tag team belts please! I'm watching DB and beard man vs heavy machinery rn, hoping they drop the belts and DB goes back to single action soon. Heavy Machinery deserve a push, also thoughts on Richocets nude? No h--- but I'd rather lick his chiseled abs before id place a sunburnt saggy Charlotte udder in my mouth.

    Pyrex I turn the stage into a barren wasteland

    Jun 27, 2019
    Regarding as Eric Bischoff’s new. executive role with the Smackdown brand, PWInsider.com reports that the deal was made within the past few weeks. PWI noted the following:

    ”We are told that WWE approached him about the role and that his previous work in collaborating with Turner Broadcasting. Spike and other networks in building past TV series was one of the reasons Bischoff was pitched for the position.”

    It’s said that Bischoff will be working directly with Fox Network.

    Regarding Paul Heyman’s creative role with RAW, PWI noted that WWE had been pursuing Heyman as early as February. Heyman will continue his television role as Brock Lesnar’s advocate.

    PWI added that ”one WWE source compared their roles to Paul Levesque's in NXT in that they will be in charge, but it's still Vince's company.”

    wow, anyone know if that Dreamer story was ever told before? I never heard it till now, seems like I would've remembered it..wonder what Heyman thinks of that, he's probably just happy Tommy is doing better now.

    Insane, never knew Tommy was that bad off. Imagine if it would've happened, there's a chance WM17 would've been the last Wrestlemania, and WM17 would've been over too, even WWE wouldn't continue the show after a murder/suicide, I don't think at least..

    Apparently Dreamer recently told the story for the first time on his podcast.

    Wrestling would be so different today.
