So apparently Sasha was working the match against Charlotte injured and is now off shows after Summerslam because of it. Which of course sparked speculation that she got popped for a wellness violation. If she wasn't hurt before the match, landing on her neck on that unbelievably stupid spot in the corner was the final straw

There is some good news tonight. Mick Foley hates Frank the Clown as much as 95% of the wrestling world does

Whatever they did last night must have been awesome because Renee looked like she was exhausted and scattered on the pre show

Vince: "Roman: Russev. Look guys we have to put over Dolph Ziggler and the Miz in a competition for best chicken little sandwich. Take it home early"

The best match on the show could have been stopped 5 minutes before and that was Cena vs Styles Why that match wasn't closer to the main event is bafffling. Yeah it was a ridiculous spot fest with way way way too many kicked out finishers but at least it had a damn finish

If we are going to complain (justifiably in my opinion) about the main events of Ring of Honor and TNA shows then you have to do it here. I mean seriously a match that never started and a ref stoppage in the main event that seemed to be done mostly to put over shane and Brock This entire show was a burial of Dolph Ziggler. He has to be leaving the company

New product from the WWE: Adderall flavored ice cream. Locker room approved

I like in amateur wrestling where if you win a big match apparently the first thing you seem to do is throw your coach around in a wrestling move. there are a lot of pro wrestling managers that are glad that tradition never made it So funny seeing the Mongolian wrestler who brutally lost because of celebrating too soon showing class and respect at the end while their coaches are doing a strip tease. With the Brazilian crowd losing their mind.

If he was bigger than Roode should have gotten something like Apollo Crews finisher but I am pretty sure that he physically can't do that move. I get the idea of the trophy with the globe at the top but yeah it is weird that it was made by a chopper company and that it may be bigger than the actual winner

Loved when they were doing the "what was I doing 1 year ago" at the beginning and they went to Aries and Roode and it complete awkwardness. You know they were wishing to say what they were really doing but don't blame them Except for maybe the Briscoes and in certain cases the Young Bucks there isn't a team better than the Revival in the world. Better than American Alpha in my opinion because they are such masters of the important thing in being a heel tag team: double team maneuvers (yeah mostly stolen from Tully and Arn but who cares it is awesome) and distract the ref spots. I don't know if I have ever seen someone accidentally fall off the ropes as a way to distract the ref from seeing a pin. I really don't know what is next for them especially since you have to Authors of Pain are next champs in line I think the description from the previous page about how Roode is everything until he actually wrestles is one of the bigger issues with him. if you are going to give him a title run then he needs to have more impactful moves. I mean if you though him beating Almas with a move from 1995 was unrealistic imagine doing that to a Samoa Joe or Nakamura.

At Evolve 67

So wait if you tell the boss that you are taking Adderall then it is fine? If that is the case then not only are they on drugs they are lazy.

If you are going to use something that happened that in TNA as "haunting their career" then you can do a laundry list of them with equal stupidity: 1. Alex Shelley being a "baby bear" as a team with Abyss 2. Young Bucks as Generation Me and Victoria's man servants 3. AJ Styles with Claire Lynch and so on and so on I am just glad that he won the title legit and not with tons of Bullet Club interference like the typical ROH main event booking. Luckily the Bucks were in Japan.

Take off the front logo and NXT label and you can sell those Almas shirts to senior citizens. Yeah the No Way Jose shirt needs to be more colorful. I mean why would you want people to stop doing what he does.

Watching the Steelers vs Eagles game last night (god what a horrible game) and it is painfully clear that if Ben gets hurt again for a period of time that the Steelers should just forfeit the season. Landry Jones threw 4 interceptions in a half. that has to be some kind of pre season record. The backup who used to play for Bengals and Raiders got hurt sliding on a run last week. Michael Vick was cut which at the time was their smartest decision.

Well Eva Marie is actually on a Summerslam match. Now chances are they would have done something to get her out of it.

Well the good news is that we get 3 - 4 weeks of them making excuses why she can't wrestle. Hopefully Daniel or Shane pulls the 'elevated enzymes' gimmick that Teddy Long did.

So Mandy Rose is going to be the next Eva Marie for Corey Graves where he is so so excited for everything she does it sounds like his hands are underneath the announce table.

Luckily nobody got hurt but since apparently they thought throwing actual cans instead of plastic was a good idea. Although I would assume Dana would just insult the person that got hurt and call him a pussy. and given a good portion of the media they would probably apologize for getting in the way.

Apparently there is now a video showing Lochte and his boys fighting with security at a gas station around the time that he was robbed at gunpoint. I would assume it is his boys doing the work and Ryan just yelling DUDE a lot

The GloriousBomb could be the 2016 version of the 316 beeper call that Austin would make to know shit was going down.

There are a lot of matches on this card where either one of them losing isn't really good for them. I mean Roode really can't lose his first big match in NXT but Almas needs more momentum if they are going to do anything with him. If they are serious with Aries he has to (and I expect) beat Jose but No Way has to beat someone besides local jobbers It seems like Billie Kay is the Tye Dillinger of the women's division as good hands for the people they want to put over.

I guess this is open to interpretation to his actions but do you do redemption stories on heels though? Also do you do it if Kendrick is not signed? I mean if you have him go to the semis or finals and then he isn't even signed what is the purpose? That is really the only reason why Gallagher losing in the 2nd round isn't that awful because the assumption is that we will see more of him Also Foley tweeted last night asking the fans if they would like to see what I assume is a tag team match featuring Gargano/Ciampa vs Ibushi/Alexander.

That sounds like something that would give her a title run about 20 years ago

Oh it definitely got worse
