  1. Apparently not. Even when there's an actual corpse to be accounted for.
  2. I personally prefer my FBI dipshit flavoured, Die Hard style.
  3. Sorry, I didn't intend to be taken seriously. All I wanted to do was take a potshot at Keith. What you're saying in general makes sense. I'm not sure I believe New Japan is playing that game as an organization or even that a large number of their stars are playing that game. But the Bucks are definitely dancing in that space, both for the exposure and because it makes them as annoying as they're meant to be. And I'm sure people in their orbit are also playing that game. The Elite being so deep in the bloodstream over there certainly makes sure there's enough Meltzerdust to go around. Beyond that, I don't feel qualified to speak more broadly to people's motivations. All things considered, I don't really care about Dave's opinion and I wish he didn't drive fan discourse as much as he does. But here we are.
  4. Van Dam didn't really suffer for that. His knee blew up within a couple weeks of this and he spent 2005 on the shelf. By the time he got back, shit had blown over and he was marching towards MITB and the WWE Championship. Not to say Bryan won't catch shit of course. Though I doubt he cares.
  5. Giving Keith shit seems redundant. He never had credibility to squander.
  6. The language will need to be airtight to hold up in a world where people don't understand that blackface is racist.
  7. It's okay, gang. Quality wrestling criticism is still alive and well. We still have Scott Keith.
  8. Thanks for reminding me: It's not like WWE's the only game for those of us who need our fix of yesteryear's stars desperately clinging to former glory! PCO vs LA Park: This week on MLW Fusion!
  9. Unless something seriously changes about the structure and/or importance of house shows, I don't think putting any of the content on the Network really drives people to buy a ticket. Especially with the fact that there's already too much in-ring programming to keep up with. They need to think way bigger than that.
  10. If Bryan needs replacing, I say the company just goes all in: Rehire Cass and throw him in a Giant Gonzalez bodysuit so the royal family can marvel at yet another WWF legend.
  11. https://www.wwe.com/shows/wweevolution/2018/gallery/the-women-of-wwe-evolution-photos#fid-40265115 This is a photo set of the current female roster prior to Evolution. I know she was off TV for a minute, but hilariously not pictured: Sasha Banks.
  12. If fan engagement is the goal here, I say develop a series of fan votes which allow the audience to book the entire card based on the available roster. Go full Bill Veeck.
  13. They weren't going for the Walmart clearance look. They were going for rebel by design.
  14. The Jericho cruise somehow sold out.
  15. I'd love to be a fly on the wall when someone fills Vince McMahon in on toxic masculinity.
  16. A little bit. But I'll concede that schadenfreude can be fun. Especially with this company.
  17. Sounds good. To which country's troops will they be paying tribute?
