Their dance with Regal that one year at (I think) SummerSlam was a highlight. 

That's absolutely my favourite Cryme Tyme moment, and up there with one of my favourite Regal moments too. Genuinely funny and something they really miss these days.

Yeah, that was awesome.

I really wanted to love Cryme Tyme. They looked great and could be really funny. The gimmick was a bit half-arsed though. WWE were well aware that they'd put two black guys in a stereotypical gimmick and were deathly afraid to go whole hog with it but yet did it anyway. It also suffered from them trying to be funny and failing at times too, like the Lita's box stuff which was painful. The big man was really green too. So while I am fond of them, it never hit the heights.

 They've set up a GoFundMe got Shad's family that had a goal of $100k and has already surpassed it. 

It recieved an anonymous donation of $40,000 with the name CTC RIP which a lot of the Internet seems to think is John Cena. 

Whoever it was, Cena or not that's an incredible gesture during a particularly tough week to support a young family that way. 

 

Edit: just saw that Matrix had already posted this elsewhere. 

The thing that stands out for me is I've had their theme music in my head all week and just realised whoever it is has just "popped a 40".

Jericho always chips in to help people out, fair play to him. Khan giving that much is the equivalent of him giving away a penny he found behind the sofa, but I don’t think they had any ties at all. Wonder if Vince will make a bigger donation when he hears about that.

He might offer Gaspards wife a job and humiliate her on TV for the next few years.

Yeah. He's really good with stuff like this. He has had a few bad experiences as well. The Dynamite Kid needed funds for his medical bills. So Jericho and others put some coin towards a GoFundMe. Then Dynamite's wife just took the money, stuck Dynamite in a home and fucked off like she was Shirley Valentine.

Seriously? Wow. I mean, look, Dynamite was not the nicest human being by all accounts but thats pretty fucked up too.

Considering what a bastard he was I don’t really blame her

Its not so much him getting screwed, more the people who donated thinking they were helping someone, not funding his missus sodding off to the arse end of wherever that I was thinking of.

To be fair, that sounds like the kind of rib he'd approve of.
