Lol

Apparently Mike Kanellis asked for his release

Viking Raiders won the tag titles to a huge pop. What a match.

The biggest breakup of 2019 has occurred. Both R-Truth and Carmella are on separate brands. :(

I’m enjoying Raw because of the wrestling, but there’s so much shit. The Bobby Lashley segment, Seth and The Fiend being announced to have a match at Crown Jewel, and Natalya and Lacey Evans teaming up together. I. Could book a better show.

Look at these names for Raw on the men’s side. Holy shit.
 
Rollins, Styles, Orton, Black, Ricochet, McIntyre, Andrade, Murphy, Owens, Rusev, Samoa Joe … plus Carillo and Alexander are obviously very exciting.
 
That’s not to mention that Raw as Becky, Charlotte, Asuka and Kairi while SD has Banks, Bayley … Tamina, Lacey and Carmella.

 
Nope

RAW: Becky Lynch, The OC, Drew McIntrye, Randy Orton, Ricochet, Bobby Lashley, Alexa Bliss, Kevin Owens, Natayla, The Viking Raiders, The Street Profits, Nikki Cross, Eric Young, EC3, Sin Cara, Seth Rollins, Charlotte Flair, Andrade, Zelina Vega, Asuka, Kairi Sane, Aleister Black, Humberto Carillo, Erick Rowan, Buddy Murphy, Jinder Mahal, R-Truth, Samoa Joe, Akira Tozawa, Shelton Benjamin, Rey Mysterio, Titus O Neil, Liv Morgan.
 
Smackdown: Roman Reigns, Bray Wyatt, Sasha Banks, Braun Strowman, Lacey Evans, The Revival, Lucha House Party, Heavy Machinery, Apollo Crews, Drew Gulak, Heath Slater, Tamina, The B Team, Brock Lesnar, New Day, Daniel Bryan, Bayley, Shinsuke Nakamura, Sami Zayn, Ali, Dolph Ziggler, Robert Roode, Carmella, The Miz, Baron Corbin, Chad Gable, Elias.

What a Waste of f#cking Time this Draft was, no Changes whatsoever, 90% stayed the Same. JDfromNY’s Review was perfectly describing That, a must watch for everybody with Brain Cells period!
 
Thank Goodness for AEW existing at this point of Time, couldn’t had come at a better Time than now XD :D
 
AEW Dark tonight should be pretty Fun no question! :)

According to Sean Ross Sapp. Eric Bischoff is gone from WWE and Bruce Prichard has been named the Executive Director of Smackdown.

@Nodqfan  

 
HAHAHAHA! WWE/Vince are/is just a Embarrassment, no more can be said about This.
 
Yeah so Prichard is being a “Yes-Man” to Vinnie, playing the Role of “Executive Director”, all meaningless Garbage.
 
Such a Good & Wonderful Thing that AEW, NJPW, NWA, MLW etc. exist as Alternatives yay! :)

I love the fact that Eric Bischoff basically pulled a George Constanza on WWE.

Mate, Prichard is good at his job. Stop being such a shill.

“Vince McHitler is out of touch and doesn’t know what fans want”
 
“Also who’s Tyson Fury? Marshmellow? Cain Velasquez?”
 
Doesn’t Vince know that fans want wrestling matches like m’NJPW (which I pretend to watch).
 
Casual fans really want to see wrestling matches instead of soap opera storyline’s with interesting characters (This is why ROH is more popular than WWE)
 
“McMahon has created no stars” (John Cena, Roman Reigns, Alexa Bliss, Braun Strowman, Becky Lynch and Seth Rollins don’t count)
 
“McHitler isn’t a good business man”
 
(Gets 50M for his development brand, 2 $1B contracts to air Raw and Smackdown and gets paid 500M to put on 2 Saudi Arabia PPV events a year)
 
It’s clear that Vince McMahon doesn’t have it anymore. Triple H knows what the REAL WRESTLING FANS want, this is why 205 Live is really successful under his leadership.

@Holofan4life  
No, Prichard will be catering towards what Vince wants, so no Changes going to happen what was obvious.
 
Screw the Main Roster Product of WWE!
 
I f#cking hope that The Revival, Rusev, Harper, EC3 etc. get out of that Company when their Contracts are up! :o

AEW Dark yesterday was pretty Enjoyable! The Kenny Omega vs Joey Janela Match was f#cking Amazing! Can’t wait for AEW Dynamite tonight, Jericho vs Allin, Jurassic Express vs Lucha Bros, Omega & Hangman vs Moxley & PAC & SCU vs Best Friends should all be pretty entertaining Matches heh! :)

AEW is amazing, but WWE isn’t the awful garbage you paint it out to be. There is a lot of awful storylines right now, but you shouldn’t paint with a broad brush.

I disagree with Solomonster saying Ricochet bores him to tears ever since joining WWE. I think he’s very entertaining.

The best storyline in AEW right now is the one between PAC and Jon Moxley. PAC wants to win. He doesn’t want to lose. Moxley, meanwhile, doesn’t care if he loses. He wants to beat people up. It’s very interesting given both are heels.

 
As an AEW and Darby Allin fan, this made me laugh

@Holofan4life  

 
In NXT he was still very entertaining, on the Main Roster definetly not anymore. Ricochet feels just like anybody else on the Main Roster, not any Aura around him. Even his Promos on the Main Roster are just Bad, “Superheroes can be Real” what is this Crap? :o
 

 
@Holofan4life  

 
As long Vince, Bucky Beaver & all the Corporate Goons are at the Helm of the Main Roster Product, nothing is going to Change that’s just a Reality Check.
 
There is absolutely nothing about the Main Roster that is captivating Television, for f#ck sakes they even screwed up The Fiend Character in a Span of 2 Months gg Vince/WWE….

Kenny Omega & Hangman Page vs Jon Moxley & PAC was my favorite Match of this weeks AEW Dynamite, just very enjoyable from Beginning to End. :)
 
I really think Omega can bring Moxley to one of his Best Matches of his Career, can’t wait for Full Gear on November 9th! :D

Man oh man NXT’s Viewership goes lower & lower everysingle Week, I wish NXT would still have the 1 Hour Format being on the Network only & not being aired on Television.  
Am I the only One who feels NXT doesn’t have the Same Feeling right now? :o

@Background Pony #4615  
I don’t feel sad for NXT. Remember that AEW didn’t begun yet, let some months pass and we will see if AEW is still pulling it off.

Personally I think NXT was always going to have to expand time-wise just due to the sheer amount of talent that they have right now.
