Paid Members Supremo Posted April 25, 2020 Paid Members Posted April 25, 2020 (edited) What the fuck was that?! How would that even look in a script?! “Vince comes out, mumbles a load of nonsense, then just wanders off as we turn down the lights.” Are there other examples of huge companies ran by senile maniacs? Is this a unique situation? It’s so crazy. Can you even imagine this company in five years time, with Vince still at the helm? Edited April 25, 2020 by Supremo Quote
Paid Members I Bent My Wookie Posted April 25, 2020 Paid Members Posted April 25, 2020 That was actually dreadful. I feel like that footage needs to be sent to those in charge of the state of Florida and asked if wrestling is still an essential business of that's what's being produced? Did they furlough the entire writing team? Quote

Paid Members Supremo Posted April 25, 2020 Paid Members Posted April 25, 2020 I was going to mention that. I got the exact same vibe I get watching Trump’s daily briefings. A palpable tension as everyone around him is thinking, “fucking hell, he’s completely lost it,” but no-one saying it out loud. No wonder they’re best mates. Quote

I reckon WWE will only get interesting once Vince totally loses it, he’ll be showing upto creative meetings and saying they should put the belt on Hogan because he thinks he is back in the 80s. Quote
Paid Members DCW Posted April 25, 2020 Paid Members Posted April 25, 2020 Jaysus, auld Vince's speech is seriously on the decline. He sounded like a parody of himself there. Quote
Paid Members Devon Malcolm Posted April 25, 2020 Paid Members Posted April 25, 2020 There's no mention of Vince's speech in the Bleacher Report rundown, what's going on. Quote
Paid Members Hannibal Scorch Posted April 25, 2020 Paid Members Posted April 25, 2020 I thought it was one of the best episodes of Smackdown in months, right until that last segment. It was all cringe. My wife walked in when Steph was on the phone as well as when Vince first come out and asked how I can watch this shit. And I mean there is nothing other to say then this isn't what its like all the time. Also, who knew Road Dogg looked so much like Uncle Albert? Quote

Snitsky's back acne Posted April 25, 2020 Posted April 25, 2020 Poor Vince. Considering what an astounding heel he in his day was it's tragic seeing him like this. A few years ago I thought Vince would go the full Krang route and get his brain re-animated into a giant synthetic body after he died and still run WWE but now it seems his brain is turning to tapioca. Sad times. Quote
RIDDUM_N_STYLE Posted April 25, 2020 Posted April 25, 2020 I actually enjoyed the segment right up to Vince’s appearance to be honest, mainly for Shawn’s hammy acting mocking Stephanie, it was a nice change of pace from the usual type of celebratory segments, but Vince completely tanked it from there, he just hasn’t got the same vigour he had even 2/3 years ago Quote
Paid Members Chris B Posted April 25, 2020 Paid Members Posted April 25, 2020 Vince is reminding me more and more of Robert Durst from The Jinx. Quote

King Pitcos Posted April 26, 2020 Posted April 26, 2020 What an odd way to close the show. Everything up until Vince started talking was about what I expected, and I quite enjoyed the stuff with Shawn, Steph and Flair. But fucking hell, Zombie Vince McMahon trying to roast his son-in-law and then turning the lights off. Fair play to them if they had fun, I suppose, but it’s absolute madness to produce that as the last scene of your prime time show this week. If Fox are demanding live shows, this sort of shite should make them reconsider. Quote
Paid Members Statto Posted April 26, 2020 Paid Members Posted April 26, 2020 Don't know whether to read anything into the fact they are talking about Braun defending against "Bray Wyatt" not "The Fiend Bray Wyatt" at MITB, and have a photo of the kid's TV presenter version of Bray on the graphic. They usually use a photo of The Fiend don't they? Other than the Miz match which obviously was against Funhouse Wyatt. Don't want to take the belt off Braun yet maybe, but don't want to have him beat The Fiend either? Quote
