It embiggens my overall point.

Rubbish episode.

The way Penta was plastered all over this show (opening promo, surprise main event participant, qualified and now likely the favourite to win Money in the Bank), you sense they viewed last week as a, “test,” that Penta passed. They now probably view him as a top star, who’ll one day win a World Title. But do you know what would’ve been better? If he won the belt last week, at the most perfect time and place of his career! This company are the absolute best at missing the window and striking when the iron is lukewarm.

On that subject, does anyone else smell an LA Knight win at the pay per view? Knowing their rhythms, I wouldn’t be shocked at all if LA Knight raises the gold, two years too late.

The way this stupid Gang Wars angle is going, where Royce Keys and his mates commit more and more ridiculous crimes whilst Jacob Fatu continues to no-sell it and say shit like, “lay low, take it slow,” I’m half expecting them to shoot Roman with an actual gun at the pay per view, costing him the belt via murder, with Jacob still muttering, “don’t be a fool, play it cool.”

Reportedly, WWE are very happy with Royce Keys re-enacting stupid GTA cut scenes each week. If only there was a particular reason lads like Triple H and Michael Hayes might enjoy watching a bunch of black men playing the role of criminals from the hood. You could suggest it’s because this gaff is ran by a bunch of old racists, but where is the real evidence for that?

Anyway, in completely unrelated news, check out the new Trick Williams T-shirt that somehow made it all the way to WWE Shop, before it was inevitably pulled because of woke.

I’m just worried about the mayor of East Palo Alto. Seeing Royce getting caught up in the game after all these years, it’ll break his heart.

I assume the end game of all of this is some shitty 3 way War Games with Royce and the lads vs The Bloodline vs La Knight and Solo and...on the night Jacob Fatu.

God that sounds shitev

[DavidB6937]

How dare they use Jaida to get me interested in the never ending Bloodline saga. They're full of dirty tricks.

[BarryOVega]

It looks like someone has spunked on Cass' forehead in that match graphic

If it helps make you uninterested again, Parker has a history of liking transphobic social media posts then doubling down on it, such as this one last year and the recent post by Sophie Cunningham. She can fuck right off as far as I’m concerned.

That ending was brilliant. Pure attitude era nonsense.

Well hopefully she'll get arrested now.

Forever fascinating that whenever one company has the momentum, it’s always the panicked approach of the other company’s creative team.

Agreed, it was completely ridiculous, but that's what WWE and Pro Wrestling in general should be rather than the serious sports type presentation they sometimes try and go for.

Hopefully more to come.

[RedTwoster]

Have they soured on Big Cass already, or is this going to lead up to an Enzo Amore comeback? AEW doesn't tend to push larger wrestlers, so I can understand why he remained in a certain position there, but I don't quite understand why he's being used in this way on such a depleted WWE roster. 

It's also nice to see that Royce Keyes hasn't dropped the Will Hobbs heel snarl. I'm not sure I'd know that he was evil without it. 

[The King of Old School]

Only working with what he has I suppose, but Joe Hendry, good grief.

Can't be long until he starts getting boo'd out of the building.
