Vince Russo is writing this right? Only he would do something like that.

Lol if it was Russo it would be some kind of acronoym.

Alexa Bliss is dreamy

Bliss has come along well in a short amount of time.

- The new name for the NXT stable of Chad Gable, Angelo Dawkins and Sawyer Fulton may be Shoot Nation. As noted, the group wears USA amateur wrestling singlets to go with their amateur backgrounds. It doesn't look like Jason Jordan will be joining the group.

I kind of like that name, but it might go over the heads of young kids.

So, anyone remember The Varsity Club?

The story is that William Regal complained about DeMott, who is known for controversy. DeMott has been spoken to several times by officials and usually tones his behavior down after the talks. However, sources indicate that DeMott is considered to be on the hot seat.

Please don't tell me DeMott molested Regal. It's bad enough that so many Divas have been traumatized by Hugh Morris groping them.

 

[Dr. Evil]

So apparently, the Great Khali is gone.

They could probably give good contracts to at least five NXT guys for what Khali alone was making.

Please don't tell me DeMott molested Regal. It's bad enough that so many Divas have been traumatized by Hugh Morris groping them.

Congratulations, that mental image has made me straight. I'm going to have to watch Total Divas this week just to re-calibrate myself back to normal.

 

[Dr. Evil]

Grumpy Cat on Raw = Reason #2 million why Vince McMahon is mentally unstable

 

[bullets]

So apparently, the Great Khali is gone.

I feel like doing a victory dance , this is tremendous! Na na na hey hey Hey goodbye .... You couldn't wrestle .... You were terrible ... Hey hey hey ... Goodbyyye

 

[NDX]

Khali had an awesome theme though. I'm gonna miss that.

 

[sweetre15]

I cant understand what the hold up is with putting Finn Balor's theme on Itunes...I want the damn song now lol.

 

[Lunar_Wolf]

I wonder what shenanigans Grumpy Cat and Miz will get into?

 

[TheNextNolan22]

NJPW New (Mobile?) Game Project

 

[chamber-music]

So apparently, the Great Khali is gone.

Good. More dead weight gone.

 

[Donnie Darko]

So, anyone remember The Varsity Club?

I do. I'd like to see a similar gimmick make a comeback.

 

[Bat Brain]

The triple threat match on Smackdown tonight lived up to the hype for me. Definite MOTY contender.

 

[MMMMM...Pancakes]

Watching NXT...****'s gettin' good right off the bat.

Impact was ok.

Haven't watched this weeks Lucha Underground yet.

- If a decision has been made on Randy Orton’s status for Survivor Series pay-per-view, it’s being kept quiet. Orton is away filming The Condemned 2 for the next few weeks but WWE could always have him work the pay-per-view, which is in his hometown of St. Louis.

WWE is planning to keep focus on Orton’s issues with Seth Rollins and have the two resume their war once Orton returns full time from filming the movie.

- WWE officials realize that the World Heavyweight Title is being forgotten by some and they are working on ideas to highlight the title without Brock Lesnar being there live. We may see some pre-taped segments with Lesnar training soon and more involvement from Paul Heyman.

[MMMMM...Pancakes]

Yes to Brock training vids! I always like seeing superstar workouts.

 

[sweetre15]

Am I the only one who thinks that the booking of Rollins has made The Authority thing ten times more watchable than it should be at this point?

The Sky really is the limit for Seth Rollins because he can be a top heel or a top face and excel in the role IMO.

Agreed, though that's like saying the Galactic Empire would suck without Darth Vader; Seth is kind of the raison d'etre of the Authority to begin with. I guess the question is whether the Authority could be effective had they not booked Seth to be their chosen one, but went with someone else. Ziggler? Cesaro? Reigns? Ambrose? Who knows what kind of WWE programming our alternate-timeline selves are watching right now.

Somewhere out there they never let Triple H win the big one.

Sounds like a fabulous universe to live in.
