Thoughts on Kiana James? This is her segment this week and i can't but help she gives Ivory vibes


 
Anybody see Bryan Danielson vs Daniel Garcia last night on AEW Dynamite? Garcia is getting better and better. He's young and as soon as he fills out and develops more personality he'll be on the road to success. Being in Jericho's stable has helped him learn and gave him a good guy to do some talking for him.
 
Thoughts on Summerslam?

Seems like post Vince era is going well. All the matches ran decent amount of time and good quality and stoked that many good returns came

Makes you question how important his roles is/was, and worse, whether the show is better off without him.

I would not want to be in the shoes of those who were promoted and are now in charge: you can't do a shitty job as you'll lose your promotion, but at the same time, there must be some pressure not to do too well which would show that not having VKM is better for the company.
 
As far as Vince being gone let's see what happens. Way too soon to tell. Vince dropped the ball on a lot of storylines but let's see how the new regime is with long term planning. As long as Vince is alive his daughter can always seek counsel from her father. That's a good thing.

True. The way things were going, it would have been very possible that he would have passed before Steph and others took control. Giving them a "trial run" right now with him as a backup is a much better option for the company.
 
I think the scandal bumped up the timetable of what they had already planned. Vince being Vince didn’t want to be embarrassed and pushed out the door so he rebelled but eventually came to his senses.

Hopefully we get some entertaining and cohesive storylines to create interest for the great matches of the future. Good Sports Entertainment. Keep the faith.

I was wondering how much faith they had in Liv, and whether this was going to be the fastest MITB-Title-Loss ever. Going in-between, having her win, but not cleanly, but also not as a heel was an interesting choice. She kept the title without becoming some uber-powerful wrestler like title holders tend to become, but also staying a face without a clean win.

It was also nice to see some NXT callups. Having Bailey lead them gave me flashbacks of Paige & PCB.
 

Let's not understate how awesome this was. If this was a HHH idea, I'd say WWE is in good hands.
 
Alright fellas, here is what we've all been waiting for. Ric Flair looked like a million bucks... but if the currency exchange rate was 30 millenniums into the future where people use dollar bills because they can't afford toilet paper. You're welcome...

Technically it should have been a double count out since he didn't tap and Ric's shoulders were also on the mat.

...jk! He made it out alive and no serious injuries. I'd say that's a win.

You are right. His shoulders were down. He said he passed out. Right after Jay Lethal gave him that Verticle Suplex they were Puppeteering him around like it was Weekend At Bernie's. Gave a new meaning to someone being carried through a match. I thought Lethal, Andrade, and especially Jeff Jarrett did good jobs playing their roles.

I'm glad Ric had his party having his daughter Meghan and his 2 son in laws(Andrade & Conrad) involved.
 
The fans really showed up with their torches and pitchforks booing Liv Morgan out of the building last night. At home I was cheering the booing. Liv Morgan had no business even getting a sniff at a World Championship. Isn't her gimmick basically a young girl with mental illness who's constantly on the verge of tears? How is that appealing and who would it appeal to?
