I personally loved all the Owen, Shamrock, Blackman stuff. 

Shamrock was really good in the Lions Den, he knew how to do natural looking pro wrestling stuff inside of it. I thought Owen was really good at turning up his aggression in those matches with Shamrock.

Does Roman do a lot of the charity/pr stuff for the company?  I know Cena does, and I think Miz and Titus do too.  Roman was on SportsCenter yesterday morning, and I took one look a him and went "Nope, this guy will never replace Cena."  He just struck me as out of place.  

 Not sure what he was thinking with that shirt, but Roman tends to dress well for TV appearances and does small talk just fine.

Cena tends to dress no better, if plaids drives one away:

FTR: I'm not saying what Roman was wearing on this particular day looked good.  But I wouldn't use Cena as the barometer of fine men's clothing to judge it.  Titus O'Neil and Miz are the two guys who consistently get it right, and I'd wager they actually know how to coordinate their own wardrobes.

The ginormous pic TMZ used of McCarver is... not flattering.  Makes him look like a cross between a roided up freak of nature and a bad photoshop.  There have to be pics out there that make him look like a human being,

Here's the pic (spoilered for size.

That's not a real person. That's one of those dummies you learn how to perform CPR on at a YMCA. Surely?

The plaid and the suitcases make me think he's plotting something in Gotham City.

LOOOL my thoughts exactly.  He looks like one of those third tier DC villains whose corny real name miraculously matches up with his criminal alter ego.  Like he's The Plaid Menace and his real name is John Tartan.

That literally looks like someone stitched together a bunch of pairs of my boxers. 

And thank you for mentioning that, yes, Cena dresses as bad as everyone else. They're wrestlers, do you expect them to have fashion sense?

Hmm... maybe Baron is woke.   

Also, since it hasn't been mentioned, WWE confirmed last night Big Cass tore his ACL and will get surgery today.   He will be out for 9 months.

I thought the same until I watched the Owen-Shamrock Lion's Den match recently - Owen led Shamrock by the nose through that thing.

I actually gave that a re-watch last week and thought the same thing. Same with the Dungeon Match. Owen is clearly calling that match.

There is no reason Owen would not be calling the match. Shamrock still had some cool offense in it.

Watching "Master of None" and there's a throwaway bit where the main character (played by Aziz Ansari) goes on a date with a socially inept WWE fan. She asks if he watched SummerSlam where Dean Ambrose and Samoa Joe fought for the WWE Championship. Surprised to see the writers reference Joe and Ambrose, I would've thought that they'd go for a lazy "John Cena vs. Randy Orton" or "John Cena vs. The Miz."

I'm sorry if someone posted about this but is anyone having problems logging into the F4W/Observer site?

Yesterday they definitely had server problems as they even posted a message on the board saying server issues weere preventing people from logging in (I ran into the issue when trying to catch up on the radio shows)

It is possible they started up again
