Anyone know the Lio Rush story? That's his 2nd release and he'd been brilliant every time I've seen him since he came back. About the only one that irked me if you remove the whole Corona situation. I'm fairly certain Angle will still be receiving paychecks for the rest of his life. Deonna Purazzo had issues and probably needed to re-assess things. Rowan was done. Heath Slater had earned way more money from this company than he ever should which you can apply to many others on the list. Drake Maverick may have been entertaining but he was never drawing any money or had any merch. I can understand it.

Shitty timing, but many should have been given their marching orders years ago. And there's many more.

Definitely my favourite thing I've seen this week. At first what appeared to be an extensive list of EVERY WWE superstar ever but obviously with some people omitted. The further I went down though the more people I saw missing. No Luther Reigns, Mark Jindrak, Sean O'Haire, Mordecai/Kevin Thorn and the like. Does anyone know what the actual criteria is for getting on this list?!! When the fuck was La Parka in WWE?

At the very least AEW could just use all these guys (and gals) for a big comedy battle royale and sign the winner. Could be a laugh.......

Is Lars Sullivan still under contract or was he quietly binned off a while back?

What were the results of WWE's first quarterly financial report?

The first 90 minutes of Night 1 were so interminably bad I turned off and went to bed. The action did pick up when I resumed this evening thankfully but nothing mind blowing. I did however enjoy the effort to try something with the Boneyard match. It's nowhere near as good as some people are making out but it did make it seem like running this show at all was not a complete waste. I'm glad some people got a kick out of it though. Let's see what Night 2 brings....

The Undertaker definitely tele-ported.

 

Jobbers absolutely, but not Marko Stunt. That's almost management condemning him to death!

So now this screams a Darby/Murderhawk final with similar results....

I didn't mind the Archer stuff but in kayfabe, why would anyone (Cody?) book Marko Stunt against him in such as obvious mismatch as his first opponent? If you wanna test the guy, Jimmy Havoc (who gave Cody a decent challenge the previous week) was right there at ringside.

I would imagine the lineup is based heavily off who has been on the shows the last 2 weeks so not ideal, but it should elevate somebody!

Is Pac even in the country still for instance? I think I would want them to strap a rocket to THE BUTCHER in this instance and just fire the other guy. He'd make a great first champ squashing all those jobbers for 6 weeks on Dynamite or Dark. Darby Allin is the most obvious shout as I think he's probably some years away from the World Title but I reckon he gets screwed in the final after going through hell.

Potential lineup: Darby Allin, Kip Sabian, Colt Cabana, Joey Janela, SCU Member, Shawn Spears, Brandon Cutler OR QT Marshall (but hopefully neither) and a member of the Dark Order.

Of course I'd rather interchange many of those with Jungle Boy, the aforementioned Pac, maybe Dustin, and Hager instead of potentially Brodie Lee.

Nah, my life is perfect, thanks

What an excellent main event! I'll be watching that again later .A great show overall in fact. Good matches, jobber squashes, Brodie Lee came off incredibly (fixed the ring attire right? - certainly not an issue for me), Vanguard-1!! Hardy stuff glorious. It just gets better, even in these times.

Raw and Smackdown, you OBSOLETE MULES!!

EDIT: Ha! You must think I'm taking the piss after reading the misery guts in the last three pages. I'm not. I enjoyed the hell out of it. Sorry that you aren't though  Maybe you should all just go out for a run instead, eh?

 

I assumed he'd lost the belt as we hadn't seen it. If those two just go balls out that could be incredible.

Lots of local talent/squashes on Dark tonight:

 

 

 

They're gonna put this twat with the Murderhawk aren't they......

 

Awful stuff, but a redeeming 5 minutes in Sasha Banks' outfit.

 

Fun stuff in the last few minutes.......

 

 

 

Surely they will use the Hardy compound at least once now?!

So where is Dynamite taking place from this week? Is this the one that got moved from Rochester to Daily's Place?

Leva Bates is fucking shit. No look, no promo, no talent, no reason to her being paid at all. She's on Dynamite tonight! Fuck you!!

It's gonna be Hornswoggle isn't it? Everything turns out to be Hornswoggle.

They've announced Moxley and Darby Vs Jericho and Sammy for this week.

Is Hardy available now then?!

Sorry, I meant the PPV. Not on ITV Box Office anymore.

This was only available on FITE right?

Sasha is back. Surprised she had any circulation to her legs in those shorts. Smackdown goes back on the series link.

I came in to specifically post that I reckon Omega is the leader of The Dark Order. I think we'll get Raven and Daniels too though. It's all very reliant on the time line they've chosen for the reveal. I'm predicting Omega somehow causes him and Page to lose the tag belts to Lucha Bros next week. Omega also doesn't have a PPV match. If they do the reveal before the Ironman match it'll make for an interesting dynamic with Neville. Now if none of this happens though Neville himself could be the leader. I think it has to be one of those two in order for it to work otherwise Dark Order will die on its' arse in about 3 weeks time.

Just a note. Nyla Rose and Shanna had been tearing it up on Dark in all aspects recently. Other than Shida, I'm particularly looking forward to them matching up again. And where's Stadtlander? So yeah, the division will be fine.
