The dumb thing is. Brock has 0 reason to hold the WWE title as he won the Rumble.
They are advertising it as champ vs champ but if its not title vs title then damn did they just bury Raw.
Not only that Brock came in and quickly buried AJ, Riddle and Seth.
we also just don't need Brock vs Roman 7
Apparently Lashley has been injured since the Rumble and now out for 4 months.
Edit- just seen they are doing it winner takes all. So possibly bringing back the undisputed title?

I like to relax and watch old promos from time to time. And man, Austin really was one of the best talkers ever.

Also podcast-wise, Austin was the best but he stopped. New Day were next best, but they also stopped. But have yall checked out XPAC's podcast? It's pretty damned good. While he's not as eloquent as Steve or Ettore, he does have a good mind for the business, and despite his past issues with drugs and backstage heat, he's grown and everyone, EVERYONE wants him to do well, and he just seems like a good dude that wants the best for everyone. Definitely recommend the Pro-Wrestling 4 Life podcast for people that miss Steve and New Day.
Not so much for Jericho fans that want him to talk about Trump and Bigfoot.

Yeah I enjoyed Austins podcast. Happy he at least still does the Broken Skull sessions for the Network
Seeing a lot of people saying he should be the only induction this year. Him vs AJ turned out to be a great final match.

I've always heard of Smokey Mountain Wrestling, but never watched it since I think it only aired regionally. lmao at "Dirty White Boy" as a ring name.

The episodes making up the Thrill Seekers run were on the Network back when I had it. It starts like this and ends in a match with my favourite ever use of blood against the Heavenly Bodies.
Its such a backwoods promotion. Cornette fully trapped in a timewarp back to the late 70s.

I think Jericho hated that gimmick. Not sure about Lance Storm.
but yeah wow, those videos are 70s as fuck. Did they just rent the cheapest, oldest cameras they could find?

From what I remember of Jericho’s book I think the whole place was basically a backwards time warp. That’s supposed to be 1994! ECW was his next US promotion!

Was the long wavy hair mandated?
Are all the women's matches on Rampage just squashes of unknown jobbers from other promotions?

Probably a call back to when you used to have jobbers on Nitro/Thunder/RAW etc. Fans requested it.. Tony listened.

So little faith in that thong it has a buckle strap.
But no seriously this girl is going to be huge. She's been killing it on 205(before the change to next level) and will likely be NXT champ this year before moving to the main roster next year.
As for Logan. Never understood what they actually did to get so famous but its pretty sad he got a better reaction than half the roster.
I don't mind the celeb attraction matches at WM. Had more than enough over the years but I doubt he will surprise people like Bad Bunny did last year.

It's quite funny listening to my girlfriend complain about how women dress so overly sexualised still. She got quite disappointed with Thunder Rosa as she posts loads of semi nudes online now for money..

I checked her instagram. Just seems like a typical show your arse crack for some likes. Lots of sweaty wrestling nerds having a good old wank over. Utterly depressing.

The most wasted talent in years
Thought he had signed a new contract last year but turns out that wasn't the case and its now expired as they couldn't agree on terms.

There's so many sitter dream matches in aew at this point, many of which we haven't seen.
Pick-a-Mix with Omega, Cole, PAC, Andrade, Cesaro, Lee, Page, Punk, Miro, MJF, Mox, Danielson to name a few.
So many fresh booking options for TK to play with...but only 3 hours of TV to do it in.

At last Claudio can come back. I don't know what the hell WWE were doing with him.. unbelievable talent. I can't wait to see wherever he turns up.
Also Buddy Matthews in the House of Black was a good little surprise. Sure THE ROSTER IS STACKED but I don't really give a shit. Give me good wrestling matches.

Seriously, fuck the WWE for wasting Cesaro. Only had one singles title in his ten year run.
I do genuinely believe the Andre the Giant Battle Royale trophy is cursed.

Apparently he was happy with his run. Got paid well and wanted to stay. Some reports say contacts actually runs out after WM.
But other reports say he has been feeling let down since October.
But yeah crazy that he only had 1 US title reign. The lack of mic skills killed him but that could have always given him a manager. A proper manager and not that pointless crap they briefly did with Heyman.
Him and Sheamus worked great together.

Cesaro as Tyson's tag partner/mistress was my favorite tag run of his, with Natty being jealous of the attention Tyson was giving Cesaro.

I think Cesaro was an ok talker. The five languages thing he did early in his run worked pretty well. Obviously Vince wasn’t a fan though.
