Batista being the one man secure enough to just walk away from wrestling cold turkey despite what I can only assume have been offers of massive sums of Saudi blood money really just speaks to the dude’s character


(I reserve the right to delete this post when he shows up at Mania next year or something)

Y’know, maybe I was too harsh to Ava lmao

Nice to see Bret Hart enjoying a night of wrestling from the stands

Spoiler: RAW

They had Oba go out like a chump against Lesnar only for them to book him like Lesnar and have him squash their former RAW tag champs in like ten seconds lol

Gunther gotta retire the Bella Twins next

I believe! (But not as much as Booker T)

Anyone but Saints was my hope, so I’m happy.

Thanks, now I'm retroactively mad about Jordynne, all over again.

Out here doing Booker T's adlibs.

Didn’t think Brody King would be the one to get the non-wrestling world to care about AEW but here we are.

Good thing they had Lesnar no sell everything he did at the Runble then

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

That reminds me of SHIMMER Volume 35, when Kellie Skater declared herself the biggest, the baddest, and the meanest, and challenged any woman in the locker room to face her... and then Kong came out.

But what's up with the Smackdown crowd barking on the 1s and 3s?

GO RED, GO!!!

The Corey Graves/JBL commentary team getting better with time and chemistry. Still not a fan of Corey as a play-by-play guy but JBL still got it on commentary and I’m not sure why they’re only having him do AAA

Robert Stone going from almost completely off TV to being the new NXT general manager is peak HBK booking.

Man reposts one anti-(redacted to avoid forum politics rule) post on Instagram and immediately gets booked to be murdered by a sex criminal.

WWE desperate to give Brock some screen time during WrestleMania???

Nice match Apollo Crews, see ya sometime in 2027 when HHH remembers you exist again.

WON’s patreon supporters all voting for Booker T as their worst announcer is either (a) racism, (b) pure not knowing ball, (c) all of the above

 

[SLAB]

McAfee only didn’t “win” because he hasn’t been around to remind people how awful he is.

 

[Tetsujin]

Rey Mysterio and JBL being on the same commentary team for AAA is hilarious given that they still never really resolved their feud after JBL ‘retired’

Becky’s made up awards somehow less infuriating than the “real” Dave Meltzer ones.

The guy in the box turning out to be Danhausen instead of Chris Jericho and him being what costs Finn Balor the title against CM Punk would be the most entertaining option for me, someone who would prefer to never see Jericho’s old ass ever again and also likes Danhausen.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

TIL Shantelle Malawski (pka Shantelle Taylor, aka Taylor Wilde) named her son Taylor, and I feel like that's up there with Sweet Saraya naming her her daughter (Paige) Saraya, or Ruby Soho naming her daughter Evie.

I still can't get over the way that Julia Hart was basically Demoted to Extra in her own god damned stable. All we need now is for Triangle of Madness to have a championship celebration where Thekla gifts Julia Hart with a framed portrait of Thekla.
