One of the best things about WCW Worldwide was the way Dusty would mark out for jobbers on commentary.  I really wish he was still around to do commentary during some of the James Ellsworth business.

"Any man with two fistisis...is halfway to doin' some clubberin'!"

Kinda surprised this Action Ortiz fella hasn't been picked up by WWE as a NXT jobber.  He's the perfect guy to get his brains beat in by The Authors of Pain while Corey Graves makes Vince-mandated fat jokes about him.

And they can bring him up to the main roster to give James Ellsworth his first clean pinfall victory over someone.

Vince: "Look at those man boobs flop all over the place.  God Dammit, Renallo, why the fuck aren't you emphasizing his man boobs on commentary??!!??"

As long as Norton isn't the time bomb that they have been talking about.

You just jinxed it.

The Tokyo Dome is going to end with the main event being turned into a Triple Threat Match and Michael Elgin eating a power bomb to give Norton his third IWGP belt.

My friend's WWE network subscription ran out, so I can't see the shows anymore I guess until that is handled. You know what I'm going to do? I'm just not going to see the shows anymore. Sadly am just over my 10 year wrestling phase or so and the WWE Network just doesn't offer me enough to subscribe.

NXT is enough for me to keep paying the $9.99. The CWC was definitely well worth it.

Same here.  Lately I've been hooked on Talking Smack, too.  And I barely watch Smackdown, but I just get a kick out of watching everyone improv.

I'm just past that style unfortunately. Was cool 13 years ago, but I don't feel like I'm missing anything and those matches don't leave me wanting more, they want me wanting less.

That gimmick hasn't been done before.

Is that a gimmick? I've been doing that without knowing it.

(Unless going to an NXT house show counts)

I'm sure WWE will be crushed when they hear that someone who was once leeching off a friend's subscription for free will now continue to not give them any money.

Please find where I said I'm not watching WWE anymore, because I don't recall seeing it. I do recall saying:

I'm just not going to see the(network) shows anymore. Sadly am just over my 10 year wrestling phase or so and the WWE Network just doesn't offer me enough to subscribe.

I think the most I've seen of a Raw or SD this year was when Dragon retired.

I think it is a concern if your hardest of hardcore fans are losing interest. I'm pretty sure no one minus WWE wrestlers saw more WWE in 2013-2014 than I did. I didn't even stream nor download the show despite knowing where to find it.

I've always been on the side of "it's better people pirate it than not see it period", because at least people who saw the show talk about it.

You weren't even spending your own money on said product, how much of a hardcore fan are you, in reality?
