Apparently the new exotic scout rifle is broken with anti-barrier mods selected. Its good even without them though now is the time to use before Bungie turns it off in the next day or two prior to the raid.

Caught the film lasting with my brother. Wasn't perfect or anything, but I loved it. The cast was great with some definite standout performances from Hoult, Corenswet, and Gathegi. Its always good to see the crazy aspects of comics full embraced as its the only way they work in film. Movie didn't feel overstuffed with every character who needed it getting just enough in for their specific roles. Particularly enjoyed Jimmy's parts. Looking forward to what Gunn brings us next in Peacemaker and Supergirl.

Honestly Kang was done generally well in the shows and films he popped up in. Its just that no matter how you slice it having the most actively threatening version of Kang fall in Quantumania simply undermined the whole idea of him as a multi-film threat. Will say I still suspect RDJ as Doom is a slight red herring. I still think we see someone else taking over the role by the end Doomsday and Secret War.

That is three projects a year. How is that remotely comparable to Marvel?

Because we know her way too much as Savathun. It too easy hear. Hear about the about the usual actress already recording new lines though I didn't know it was Edge of Fate itself. Figured Bungie would just wait until the next expansion. Kind of happy to hear that isn't the case.

Opening to NXT was fine as a setup to the six-women tag main event. Masha's mic working right would have made it a little better. Trick/Santana/Hendry vs. DarkState was solid up until the no contest ending with the System interfering. Karmen/Kali ending in another no contest to push Jordynne's feud with Blake more was a choice. Wasn't too pleased here as this was more or less Kali's NXT debut so it was weird to have her chumped out by Grace. Jordynne's anger made sense, but this isn't the best move to have faces making let alone what it says about Evolve and its talent. Tony vs. Stacks vs. Luca was good. Plenty of great action with all three guys having some nice moments. Despite the strong win this did feel like the end of Tony D'Angelo as a character, if not NXT in general. He has been ready to move on from both for nearly two years now so I can't really complain outside the route they took to get here. The segment setting up Oba vs. Briggs vs. Yoshiki was fine. Still I find myself disappointed as I would much rather see these guys facing off in singles. Masha/ZaRuca vs. Fatal Influence built into something good with everyone but Sol getting some nice focus to show off some. Sol needed the break after her weekend so I was more than fine with this. Was particularly pleased to see Nyx, Zaria, and Masha impressing. Not fond of two matches ending in no contest though the last two delivered well. Was pleased to see them put such time and focus on the doubles titles match. It makes sense coming off of Evolution. Beyond that I thought the stories building here for the coming weeks were interesting. Solid show though NXt ha shad stronger this year. -
Iyo Sky vs. Rhea Ripley, Evolution 7/13/2025 Iyo Sky vs. Rhea Ripley vs. Bianca Belair, WrestleMania 4/20/2025 Jey Uso vs. Gunther, Raw 6/09/2025 Jey Uso vs. Cody Rhodes, Raw 6/23/2025 Iyo Sky vs. Rhea Ripley, Raw 3/03/2025 Lyra Valkyria vs. Becky Lynch vs. Bayley, Evolution 7/13/2025 Lyra Valkyria vs. Becky Lynch, Money in the Bank 6/07/2025 Lyra Valkyria vs. Bayley, Raw 7/14/2025 Lyra Valkyria vs. Becky Lynch, Backlash 5/10/2025 Jordynne Grace vs. Giulia, NXT 5/06/2025 Could name a bunch of other stuff after no. 6, but Lyra has had a stupidly good past 2-3 months. Honestly, the women in general have been killing it this year even when their booking is off. There have been plenty of good matches from the men, but the women have been more memorable to me.

Only done the first mission so far along with looking through the gear to collect and whatnot. The changes are not super jarring outside of maybe the Portal stuff which is fine, just different. I do miss my old big damage numbers though everything is still comparable in terms of actual percentages. Its nice to have a class item with actual stats. It automatically adds another 40-50 points to you armors stats compared to the old gear. Was also nice to have feel like I needed to desperately switch my armor and mods around as the changes to your normal stats wasn't massive. Same when messing with your subclass fragments. The matterspark can be fun though its not always the easiest to manage movement wise. Doesn't seem to offer much combat wise at base level. Some things aren't as intuitive as normal like you being able to walk through Eliksni boss shields in the big boss fight of the first mission. They looked the same old so I was running around like a moron for 5 minutes unsure of how to take them down. Might be a bug, but it looks like all dungeons are free now or maybe just tied properly to paid expansions as I can seemingly access Ghosts of the Deep and Warlord's Ruin despite never buying the key. That was not the case outside of Rite of Nine as of yesterday. The first mission leaves much of the story still at a big mystery, The Kepler social space is interesting as its in the open and surrounded by enemies. Don't see any named characters beyond Lodi yet though you can seemingly talk to a few randoms who i think will give hints towards missions. I like what I have seen so far. Edit: Forgot to mention that I did notice that masterworking costs seems decently lower though I suspect they will go up higher based on tiers. Upgrading gear power now just eats 1 enhancement core opposed to upgrade module.

Opening with Naomi, Rhea, and Io to set up the triple threat was nothing special but still nice to see. This version of Naomi carries herself so well despite being a cackling villain. Kabuki Warriors vs. Raquel/Roxanne was solid. Would have preferred Kairi and Asuka won, but I'm good with Judgement Day cheating here. They also probably need it more wit Raquel and Roxanne as a new team. Hopefully they pop up in NXT and Smackdown to create some decent rivalries. Bayley/Lyra was great. Dug the action. Dug the tension. And I dug how each of the falls played out a bit more exciting than the last. Its been good seeing Lyra come more and more into her own since this story started post Mania. Hopefully she get s a stip like this against Becky and wins the belt back at Summerslam. Becky/Bayley can still happen afterward. The backstage segment with Dom and AJ had me chucking. These interactions the past few weeks have been dumb in the best of ways. Nikki/Chelsea was solid aside from Nikki trying her old spine destroying finish at the end. Guessing old habits kicked in. Was nice to see Stephanie make the save post match. Bron vs. Penta vs. Knight vs. Jey vs. Punk was good. WWE tends to gauntlet matches well so I was happy with how this one played out, particularly with them waiting for Bronson to pounce. Bron/Knight was probably the best of rounds here though I still dug Bron/Jey and Bron/Punk. The post match beatdown that led to the save by Roman was an awesome surprise. Not sure if the crowd knew he was there already or just felt like making the call, but I loved how it played out. That pop was massive. Normally I would complain about only 4 matches, but when one of them is longer gauntlet match I feel some leeway is allowed. Beyond that the wrestling here was just pretty solid-good. Bayle/Lyra was MOTN for me and really delivered though the gauntlet wasn't super far behind. Beyond that I'm digging where the stories are going and how the card for Summerslam is building. Rollins's injury got a quick and solid address that will make his return and cash in a decent surprise whenever I happens, legit hurt or not. Good show and follow up to this past weekends events. -
Pretty sure the ships that fucked Cassian's planet over were specifically Republic so yeah the dark shit started long before the Empire. Some of it was lack of oversite, and some was specifically about whoever was allied with Republic, regardless of right and wrong. There is a reason the Separatists became a thing.

To be fair part of the assumption when Naomi won MITB is that they would head the direction of Naomi vs. Bianca.

Becky vs. Bayley vs. Lyra was pretty darn good. Dug the action and tension. Was also nice to see the crowd into all three women while still treating Becky like a proper heel. Jacy/Jordynne was good, easily Jacy's best match in WWE. The turn by Blake at the end was interesting. Kind of curious to see where they go with it though it should please those who felt Blake was too disingenuous as potential face. Raquel/Roxanne vs. ZaRuca vs. Kabuki Warriors vs. Charlotte/Alexa was solid. Dug how they gradually built into something more and more chaotic as the match went on. Tiffany/Trish went better than expected with Trish looking pretty decent throughout. Naomi/Jade was an alright plunder match, but I honestly got more from their Wrestlemania match. Bianca in particular didn't really add much to it despite her role as ref. Its a pity as she brought more to the table in the second Rhea/Io match from earlier in the year. The battle royal wasn't particularly bad or good, but I had fun catching it. Was happy to see Lash impress and be part of the final two with Vaquer. Wish Lash won, but Vaquer was the right choice here. Rhea/Io was fantastic. Dug all of the new things they brought to the table and the continued story of Rhea getting frustrated being unable to put Io away. The swerve with Naomi's cash in was not on my bingo card but also kind of neat. It happening just as Rhea is seemingly getting her confidence back after kicking out of Io's best was neat and means that particular story gets to continue while Rhea finally has a new enemy to tunnel vision in on. Thought this was the best show from WWE this weekend. Plenty of good wrestling to go around but the IC and World title matches easily eclipsed anything from NXT and SNME. Rhea/Io is honestly a MOTYC for me rivaling the triple threat they had with Bianca at Wrestlemania. Good show.

If what Craig mentioned about Miro is accurate his issue is more not caring about much beyond the paycheck than anything else.
