Case of trying too hard in this case. 

The brilliance of MJF's origin story promo this time last year was that he was the wronged party and it brought attention to real world scenarios of anti-semitiscm. Last night felt like a plot point stolen from a television show that has a rich kid character in it. 

It's the gasps that make it. It's as if they were like "I thought this was all fake" 

The Cody/Heyman stuff was really good but if I was an ECW guy from 2000 and I heard that Dusty got paid I'd be furious. 

Watched this a bunch of times

Erm...

What's the betting Vince phones up Triple H and goes "goddammit Paul, get him on a NIL deal or whatever that thing is called" 

Annnnnnnnd there it is

Ukff members saying a Dynamite was rubbish when everyone else says it was good. Just like a period it happens once a month lol

A bunch of Jay White fans were moaning on twitter crying about why could Okada not be this fiery against Switchblade. I mean it's hard for someone to have fire when your opponent is going "oooh, matron" for 20 minutes. 

Also we can all agree that the Moneyclip was the worst idea a wrestler has had since Shibata went "yeah, I'll headbutt this guy right now" 

The most interesting Okada had been for 3 years. 

Shame Mae Young is dead because she'd be in the money if she joined 

Judging by his twitter Regal's into his 70s comedy so the likelihood of liking someone dodgy and awful is around 99%

Anyone who previously, until that comment, thought Nick Khan was a lovable Uncle that was there to make the product better and put old Vince down like Old Yeller, needs to pull their head out

Tbf I thought Nick was a wanker yesterday, today he's upgraded to being a cunt

There's an interview with Nick Khan that came out today 

He describes the Rita Chatterton rape allegations as "something in the way of Vinces return" 

You can see why Vince likes Nick so much with language like that

Not the first time Vince hasn't asked for consent

I know you nerds don’t follow real sport but remember how WWE did a custom belt as a gift to the Super Bowl winners? Well Big Daddy Shaddy and his idiot sons Jacksonville Jaguars did one of the all time playoff comeback wins at the weekend. Like when Fulham win, Sniff remembered his twitter password and tweeted his congratulations. 
 

If the Fins lose to the Bills, which they probably will, I might have to cheer on the Jags just in case WWE do the belt thing again. Can you imagine if they did and the Jags Madusa’d the belt on AEW TV? If it pushes Vince towards death that bit quicker, I’m all for it!

Not gonna lie, reading this back it feels you've been doing 3 grams worth of the sniff yourself

Notice how the big WWE stories were broken by actual journalists, not people who write dirt sheet gossip

Probably because it's Nick Khan leaking them 

The story was broken by DAZN which while not exactly The Times isn't exactly a guy in his basement. 

Twitter was being twitter.

Maybe we need Media Literacy classes at school. Might help the world stop becoming a shithole

Guess Sami won't be winning the title anytime soon then 

This ended up like Succession but only if Vince Russo booked it

"BRO, IMAGINE IF NONE OF THEM GET THE COMPANY AND THE SAUDIS BUY IT. SWERVE BRO" 

I say the Saudis take advantage of Eddie Howe's knowledge of late 80s Memphis wrestling and have him book Raw. 

The set feels very WWE 

I too liked the tunnels you have some really visuals from it like in Match 6 of the Trios with Omega running down it hit a V-trigger.

My only criticism? One of them (couldn't work out who) has very Lex Luger "Oooowww! Aaaaah! Ooooooh!" noises when on offence or defence and that annoyed me a bit. 

You're probably right but I didn't notice it mainly because I watched Josh Bailey vs Speedball Bailey the other night and Bailey would have any seller bar Luger sound like a silent movie 

And we have our Promo of the Year 

Skip the first 10 minutes when they talk about college football

Good to see mention of his stuff with Amazing Red. Has he done that more often he could have been one of the great babyface managers. The formula was easy. High flyer who isn't great at talking with a charismatic talker. 

His heel commentary was fun. Don calling Mick Foley vs the Rocky Balboa cutout is one of the best heel commentaries you'll hear

Part of me whats to watch the tribute TNA put up on Slammiversary again but its been a meh Christmas so it might break me 😢
