    Probably where Vince got the idea. Surely Cody has given an interview on how the character was pitched to him.

    Darkside of the Ring on Chris Adams. I really only remembered him as a WCW Job guy, but he definitely has a legacy of popularizing the super kick and getting Stone Cold into the business. Sounded like a huge asshole. Getting the guy that shot him to appear in the doc was a big get.

    NBA might be leaving TNT.

    And ESPN, though that’s not relevant to wrestling at the moment.

    If all other shows stay at their current days or times, I still say Sunday or Thursday is what they should do.

    Great belts but couldn't they have just stuck with Raw/SD tag team champs or World/Universal? The Raw champs are the World Tag Team Champions and SD are the WWE Tag Team Champions.

    I'm sure they did that in order to make it easier to move tag teams between the 2 shows

    shit looks like a parody of a WWE video. The amount of cuts in that short of time just looks so jarring. I’m so glad they’ve moved forward from that bullshit. Longer continuous shots look so much better.

    They have nailed Solo’s “tribal chief” turn. He was fantastic on the mic, great look with the suit and Tama is coming off like a killer.
    Huge we want Roman chants… dude is going to be a massive baby face when he returns with a United OG bloodline.

    Kinda glad they didn’t panic and move Bianca into the Raw title picture.

    Smackdown tag titles are dope.

    It’s Tiffy Time bitches.

    Not that getting injured is ever ideal, but Rhea is getting time off at a pretty good spot. Made it through Mania, fans already cheer for her even though she's a heel, and she had kind of already beaten everyone.

    Now she gets to come back to a huge pop while other women have time to develop.

    Could see a Bianca heel turn happen soon.

    I think they are going to give Bianca and Jade a nice long run as a tag. Bianca is a good person to pair Jade on the road with to learn the system.

    Agree with Rhea, wouldn’t surprise me to see her return to a Judgement Day that’s fallen apart, with Balor and Priest beefing, Dom all mixed up with the LWO/Escobar situation.

    She’s going to be a massive baby face on return.

    I think it was Kaz who mention Chelsea as a good candidate to win the title. I think she may be to comedic for it to be believable but I’m not hating the idea.
