    Sheamus. It's time to finally put some effort into getting him over as one of the faces of the company.

    Sloppy work in the '96 Rumble.

    Alan Dershowitz allegedly threatening to sue for defamation over Sean Penn's hair in Carlito's Way feels like an incredibly Mad Libs thing to have happened.

    Alternatively, it's become easier to appreciate their realism.

    I want to be hopeful. But this wouldn't be the first time someone writes a National Treasure script that fails to materialize a new movie. We're in Deadwood territory here, where I'll believe nothing till I'm looking at on-set production photos of some stars.

    I don't know. Sure, he's the man behind huge summer hits like Milf Island and he's the reason the microwave tray spins. But he's had his misses. Remember KouchTown?

    Trish Stratus and her first WWF contract.

    When I see numbers like that and think about how much is going into churning out a never-ending line of new Marvel and Star Wars stuff, the little voice in the back of my head starts whining things like "How fucking hard is it to get them to throw some of that money at a new National Treasure movie?" And then my brain just makes crying noises.

    That main event was rough. All that time with Brock holding the belt hostage and all that time waiting for them to pull the trigger on making Roman the guy properly again led to this. The action is incredibly dull and repetitive, even by the standards of the Suplex City template. The crowd isn't there for it at all. And worst of all, Brock wins and I come away thinking they're wasting my time and Roman's peak years. Just a trash match. You're not exaggerating in describing it as one of the worst to go on last.

    Now you've all been worked.

    Larry King and CM Punk.

    Peacock isn’t a real thing. It’s a made up service from the 30 Rock reunion special. You’ve been worked, DZ!

    Do we know this for sure? Is there no other property under the NBC umbrella that would be a fit for NXT? What's on SyFy (or however it's spelled now) Wednesday nights? I think their deal with USA was only for a couple years, so it'd be up later this year, right? Would they be able to shop it elsewhere?

    I feel like the only place to go from here is split hairs over differing definitions of ace-hood. Which I will graciously spare everyone of. You're welcome!

    All of which can be applied to Angle vs Michaels. I don't think that excuses not doing it.
  19. John from Cincinnati
    I know this steps on either the Edge match or the first Michaels match and those are well-regarded, but parking peak Cena in forgettable triple threats at back-to-back Mania shows just how little clue this company has at times.

    There were flimsy excuses for interpromotional matches or for people to switch brands for what basically amounted to a single feud all over the place during the period when the match should have been done. Them being on different shows wouldn't have made a difference if they really wanted to do it.

    Considering how wrecked Taker's body was, a squash was the right move for this show. The right time for Taker-Cena was probably Mania 23-25. Cena hatred is arguably at its peak and Taker's into some of the best work he'd do during that period. I'd have even taken that match over either of the matches vs Hunter, but that's when Rock was available so there's really no space for it there. Cena getting paired with Bray at 30 feels like such a meh booking in hindsight.

    I really enjoyed Tenet. It helps that I was primed on most of the big complaints going in and that I was jonesing for a big dumb blockbuster after going a year without one. I was biting on pretty much everything this was throwing at me. Some wild set pieces and great suits in this one, which is all I needed. Also Don't know where I'd land on this in a non-COVID world. But as things stand, this was welcome.

    Undertaker, Michelle McCool, Finlay, Charlotte, Mrs Finlay.

    Not sure whether this is news or if he's even talking about a wrestling book. But here ya go:
