Nihilists! Fuck me. I mean, say what you want about the tenets of The Wyatt Family, Wyld Samurai, at least it's an ethos.

The more I see Bray tweeting like Matt the more I hate it. I'd love if he went back to his Waylon Mercy character.

Poor Conrad.

I for one am shocked that the engagement Cena was forced into by his boss has ended.

We're an anarcho-syndicalist commune! We're takingturns to act as a sort of executive-officer-for-the-week-- But all the decisions *of* that officer 'ave to be ratified at a special bi-weekly meeting-- By a simple majority, in the case of purely internal affairs-- But by a two-thirds majority, in the case of more major--

It's what you get for returning Piers Morgan to us instead of blasting him into space.

Undertaker, secret best bro...

He made a terrible Wild Samoans pun one week that was like, "You may Sika this title, but you still won't have it Afa Wrestlemania." Paul's preoccupation with Reigns's Samoan heritage always gets weird. It's like he creeps toward the precipice of phrenology and backs off.

This is Sanity! They are here to have crazy fun!

So "Proud SquaredCircle Warrior" is another term for Incel right?

The problem with this is that there is a catch-22 there if the fans ARE clued in by Dave, because honestly it ties into a bigger issue than "Is Rusev going to get a push": The fans have just given up on their heroes ever getting pushed in WWE, and this is paradoxically the reason they WON'T be pushed. Sometimes in all of entertainment, you have to break the fans' hearts to make them want something THAT MUCH MORE when they do get it, and it's that fact that makes entertainment in any form. There's a world of difference between if WWE gave Daniel Bryan the WWE Title at Summerslam 2013

Finally! Somebody gets it.

That would've been great for PowerPoint Gulak

Sanity would be fine on the main roster with a few vignettes and an interview with Eric Young explaining their beliefs and mission in WWE. However, this is WWE, so we wouldn't get any explanation beyond Michael Cole repeatedly calling them crazy. I'm not asking for Chikara-level storytelling, but a little more than half-assed effort would be nice.

Re: Sanity They're not a cult. They're anarcho-nihilists. They don't care about anyone or anything. They just want to break down social norms and cause as much mayhem as possible. You saw that play out in War Games. Speaking of which - God bless Alexander Wolfe. I love that big ugly bastard.

Tie: Matt and Nick Jackson. Poll could do with some spicing up, both in terms of timeframe and geography. Not everyone here is too lazy to watch some Pat O'Connor. Of the options, I suppose I most enjoy the stories told by Bret during his peak. And there's also something to be said for being the one among the three who wrestled the style least conducive to brain damage, regardless of how his career ended. So what's the deal with this account? Are you the DVDVR version of those Facebook quizzes that are collecting everyone's data?

That was probably one of the best SmackDown endings ever!

Marty and Sweetster.

I don't know, Jonestown had some massive turnover.

Catching up on the main event and holy shit, this is everything I thought we'd see with Gaethje in the UFC. Just porous, shit defence matched with an iron skull. Poirier hit Gaethje with an absurd amount of shots to Gaethje's dome. Gaethje is just so wild in everything BUT his leg kicks, which are next level, and a decent but inconsistent jab. What an awesome fight! One of the best and it exceeded the hype. It's almost like trading 3-5 significant head shots for one leg strike doesn't work out most of the time.

That was such a great, great fight! You really could see Casey's shortcomings and strengths all in one fight. Waterson needs that atomweight division badly. Way too much size to give up even though she's become a really good wrestler all things considering, taking down Casey and Torres in her last two fights. And that kick that sent Casey backwards at the end of round 2. Perfection.

Michelle Waterson is still undersized for 115 and she doesn't respond well getting hit by the bigger fighters but she is able to make up for that in heart. Incredible fight.

Which feels like a terrible idea on multiple levels. Bray turning again so quick would suck, and Sanity doesn't need him. Although if he does turn again, I guess he does need a cult since him without one really sucked.

Pets are wonderful. As dumb as it may sound to some, my cats have kept me from seriously hurting myself because I can't fathom not being there to care for them.

Damn, Jim Neidhart looks different.

He'll always be Robin Hood with an English accent to me.

Hell - bring back Armando Alejandro Estrada to put with Reigns; he’ll have the fans chanting along as he refers to Roman as the new Samoan Bulldozer.

That pun is not terrible!

This is fair.

It's tongue-in-cheek gory horror that definitely doesn't take itself seriously. It's a good time. There's much worse out there. I'll never forget when I first saw it, in a sold out theater with no air conditioning in the middle of August on one of the hottest days of summer. Snack bar was verging on selling out of anything cold.

Probably not in a convincing way.. Sanity isn't really a cult and I think they work best as all members being equal. They can have a mouth piece or front man but not Bray, I think Eric Young is perfectly fine for the role.

I saw Joe Cole (yes, THAT Joe Cole) play for the Tampa Bay Rowdies today vs Red Bulls II in USL action at Red Bull Arena in front of about 100 fans (game kicked off an hour after the MLS match ended). His team lost 5-0.

Phil Baroni was still in the UFC in 2011?! Stunning. Hold up, wait a minute. Baroni is only 41?! God, I guess it was the HGH that made him look like he was 35 when he was really in his early 20s way back when.

Bray is still vanity searching. He is one shitty super kick from being the third Young Buck.

Dug this one deep out of the twitter archives: I'm torn between listing out all the names and instead letting people go "wait, is that?" so I'll split the difference and put the names in a spoiler:

This.

Pitbull?

Probably for the weed.

God's career never recovered from that tag match at Backlash, did it?

I'm sure it'll be better than the actual Point Break remake.

Triple H, though.

Man I rewatched the whole thing recently, let me tell you - Grace Zabriskie's performance as Sarah Palmer in those first two seasons comes across as way more frightening and unhinged now we know what we know about her. Picked up on some other weird threads too - Big Ed's reflection does something really weird in Episode 13, and Audrey says a line in that episode which is repeated by the Evolution of the Arm in the final episode... the implications of which I can't begin to fathom. Also, that ending is still a totally perfect gut punch.

No.

They shouldn't have changed the name of the Moolah battle royale, because that thing set back women's wrestling almost as much as Moolah did.
