Bayley being the best pure babyface in the biz is a fraud spread by NXT fetishists and semi-professional Bronies. She's got a boyfriend but she's been leading that awkward virgin boy from Ireland on for months. She's been using him as her hugbuddy. He even introduced her to his parents. It's deplorable behavior totally unbecoming of a babyface. There's none of those shenanigans with Pentagon, Jr. He's there to kick ass and break arms. Cero shenanigans. Cero miedo.

Adam LaRoche didn't waste any time finding another lockerroom to dump his kid off in.

Dean Ambrose on a show riding around on his high-tech, super-powered boat and fighting crime and evil bad guys with occasional cameos by Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins would be the greatest TV show since The Wire. You all know this. Don't deny it.

Sarah McLachlan needs to save that dog.

All Roode and EY have to do is get one TV match on NXT and Big will offer them bigger contracts with guaranteed money. DA also got rid of ROH. And ROH was giving them their show for free. At least TNA got paid. Look this stupid company isn't allowed to die until I get the book. And I need Eric Young. He's integral to my marketing plan for HARD JUSTICE 2016! He's going to walk around the streets of Nashville in his gear wearing a sandwich board that reads "ASK ME ABOUT HARD JUSTICE". Then he directs anybody that inquires to Serge who'll be sitting on a corner wearing a cowboy hat and playing a guitar. Can't miss him. Give Serge $20 and you get a copy of HARD JUSTICE 2016 on DVD-R. And Serge will have his guitar case open. Toss in some money and request a song. More fan interactive than a Chikara scavenger hunt. HARD JUSTICE 2016 will emanate from the home of TNA Wrestling in Nashville, TN and take place at the Tennessee Prison For Women. See Josh Mathews sold for a carton of cigarettes and a pack of donuts! See The Pope and Jeremy Borash eat donuts and smoke cigarettes! They don't need a light cause this show is gonna be lit! See The Dollhouse battle The Beautiful People in a paddle on a pole match!

So if Terry Bollea doesn't have a ten inch penis, and Hulk Hogan does, how big would Rip's be- and does this make Vince's original plan for See No Evil to be a sequel to No Holds Barred? Stan Hansen says Rip has a teeny wanger. What a jockass.

Meltzer also says that my summer plan is to not watch a minute of that.(Source: Wrasslin' Observer)

My sister is in the process of moving, she lent me her Apple TV/Shomi account and I've started watching 'Party Down' and love it SO MUCH.

WM 30 is streaming. This might be my third- or fourth-favorite Mania. Thinking about Cena/Wyatt, the issue was less Wyatt losing and more that Cena did not have to become a monster to do it. The "He who fights monsters" narrative was a good idea except that Cena never came close to corruption at all. Poor execution. Cena could have won the series 2-1, but book it so that he gives in and does terrible stuff to win the first match. Bray claims victory since he got Cena to show his true colors. Cena goes out of his way not to succumb to violence in the second match and loses. The narrative of the third match is whether or not Cena can stay true to his credo and beat Bray, or if he can only win by rejecting Hustle, Loyalty, and Respect. They have these good narrative beats, but they fuck them up right off the bat. On yet another watch, HHH wrestled the match of his career that night.

Whatever it was supposed to be, it wasn't.

Lets just go all out: Ambrose & Hogan for True Detective season 3

I like this one. One Hardy's looking this way, the other Hardy's looking that way, and the dog is going, "What do you want from me?"

Seems like Drake needs to get some friends his own age.

Not as long as the checks are clearing.

*Let me duck into this punch* *BOP* He has old pro wrestler body.

Thunder in Paradise with Ambrose and the bomb-tossing midget. No. Nevermind, just... no.

Do you guys just tell everyone you're from the nwo?

I am not kidding when I say that, as a kid, I got a genuine kick out of Thunder in Paradise. Granted I was a stupid '90s kid, but still. That boat was fucking cool. WWE Network should revive or reboot it.

Finn Balor is Gaelic for "friendzone"

TNA would like to announce the 30 man Gawker Guy Memorial Battle Royal this year at Bound For Glory.

Now...what was the question?

If he actually lives to walk away with the money he should disappear and start over. I'm imagining that famous Spider-Man cover, but instead it's a trash can full of bandanas, skullet hair extensions, and Pastamania menus.

Dirty Orange Boy

Some people say the Wyatts were always an overrated act. I look at videos like that and realize those people are fools.

If they aren't scumbags doing scumbag things like Gawker did, they should be fine.

Bayley - 76 PJr - 52

Sasha - 91 Day - 33

I don't hate this season as much as Jingus, but, yeah, liked S1 a lot more. Thought the first two eps were really poor, and it does pick up from there, but there's not a lot of great writing here. Some good moments, but generally average. Not tightly plotted, and way too much in the way of plot and character motivations is either left to me to come up with something plausible or dismissed by muttering 'timey wimey' at it (well, not literally). I don't need every little detail spelled out, but I dislike it when the who, what, and why is so vague that I have to fantasy book the episode to come up with something plausible. Also, the writers need to realize that having a character say "wow, it's so unlikely that you were able to (walk around in your superhero costume without being seen/vastly overstep your authority/secure a building without checking surrounding buildings) doesn't make the thing that was just done any less implausible. Still enjoying the show, but i kinda think I'll remember much of it in a few weeks. Also, Frank Castle is to tactical geniuses what Homer Simpson is to Mensa. Most of his plans seem to revolve around making himself as conspicuous as possible and drawing innocent bystanders into the scene, not away from it. I never really though comic book Punisher was a strategist, but this version is simply a blunt instrument that plunges straight ahead.

Yeah, Keaton smoked everybody, but everybody was good to great in it.

Goddamn I wish I could go back and have JBL call a "Fat Fuck Barrel Boy" match.

I'm changing my stance on this.

He has old pro wrestler body. He looked like he should've been coaching a little league soccer game tonight. Coming off TRT clearly hit him hard. EDIT: Mark Hunt had an epic quote at the post-fight press conference. "I looked at Frank. He was in the Dark Lands. So I left him there." He's like a character in a Mad Max movie.

Her hand speed is really slow for such a small fighter, which isn't a good thing as she doesn't really have a tonne of power and her head is almost always the centre line. She's got good cardio and can take a beating though, so she can hang in there and take advantage of mistakes.

Awesome comeback and win from Neil Magny in a crazy fight. Disappointed in some of the decisons, mainly was hoping for Seo Hee Ham to pull off the victory.

"The PTA would like to discuss you pulling up to the school without the placard displayed on your windshield"

I mean, if the mood is right (and I have a weight belt to use as a pretend guitar).

Nobody under 12 is allowed in the temple and middle aged bronies are too scared of Boyle Heights I will save you from the tree of woe, Curt, and write magic spells on your body and shit

If only James Storm stayed in nxt, then we could have had Beer Money in nxt. Beer Money vs. The Revival vs. American Alpha vs. The Vaudevillains vs. Enzo & Cass vs. Blake & Murphy sigh...what could have been

I think some of these people still feel "cheated" with what happened to Bryan and hating the new hand-picked guy is the cool thing.. plus, there's a generation that grew up booing Cena for similar reasons. If Hunter does win, will there be outrage and "2003" and "burial" chatter?

Roast, sorry we didn't do much this afternoon. I got involved in a tangle and you were doing some random stuff. I kept an eye on the "death notices" to see if anyone gave you any static, but you kepr dying at your own hand, so I figured you were freeforming, and I had assholes to deal with. I ran into one VIP after you left, and holy shit, his bodyguards abused me. I was trying to get out of there and they were following me, and I'm screaming and fleeing like a teenage girl in a slasher movie. I then got into it with a level 107, who hung right with me. It was time to go, my status as nail in a world of hammers had been established.

True art provokes such questions.

I was legit shocked that Fenix won. Really cool match, not sure I liked it as much as their casket match last year, but no denying these two have great chemistry. Plus the "man of 1000 lives vs man of 1000 deaths" is such a great natural rivalry that can last as long as the promotion itself. Glad that Havoc, Angelico and Ivelisse got their belts back. The Disciples made for a cool visual at the end of S1 and that was pretty much it. It'll also be good to see the face team work with Ivelisse healthy. Chavo/Texano was probably the best match from either guy in LU. I had kinda forgotten that either of them was still around. I need more Cortez/Joey Ryan undercover cop antics, though. It says a lot about LU that Catrina is revealed as a ghost and it makes perfect sense. Oh, and Aztec Warfare is gonna be off the chain. Master class in building to a big show tonight from LU. I'm hyped.

Maybe give Luke Harper a push in his absence.

Have you ever seen the Warrior comic from the 90s? His standards weren't that high.

I'm glad I blocked that theme out of my head. When it comes to alternate Flair themes, it's Easy Lover or nothing in my opinion.

Finally saw the first two episodes. I'm kind of digging how, despite how different their personalities are, how much Saul's story ends up (at least what we see so far) being a longer version of Walt's in a way up to "Granite State". Sad sack likable guy who gets pushed around but has exceptional skills...is being cheated out of something he is entitled to...just can't stand by anymore and watch that $$$ roll past him...and ends up cold and alone and stuffed in a dump just waiting for...death? something? You wonder if that's part of why Saul was so immediately protective and loyal(ish) to Walt. I'm also enjoying the pace so far. It will probably quicken, and it's been awhile since I went back to the early episodes of BB, but Gilligan and Co. seem to have taken a step forward toward emphasizing the slow unfolding of things even more than on BB...letting them set themselves up...letting banal scenes of daily life carry a kind of tension and poetry for long stretches. But even the "action" scenes are really bold in the sense of making you stay with them for a realistically long time. That scene in the desert was looooong. Saul's pleading for his own life and then for the two other dudes. It unfolded really slowly and they didn't shortcut by making him too clever. It was a stumbling fumbling stuttering scene that they let just sit there way longer than most shows would be willing to. The scene where he gets ready to sleep in his office. The scenes with Tuco and his Abuelita. They let every nuance linger even if it means making you wait for the next meaningful line of dialog or action. It has this heightening effect, making details seem large and vivid. But without relying on too much camera trickery (there is some, but just enough). So damn good.
