That was a very confusing commercial.

Oh my.

Someone please stop Meg Ryan from getting more plastic surgery.

Wow. Not wasting any time to try and give the game to the chiefs. I’m not a fan.

I had no idea Power Stone was even in arcades. I'm going to get this collection purely just to have Power Stone 1 and 2 again.

I was about to quote Technico and Zakk, but Niko is right. They have brought up Jimmy Rave in reference to the robe in the past. It didn't really bother me much that they didn't this particular time. Swerve seems like a very creative, engaged, and thoughtful wrestler when it comes to storylines, history, etc. It would actually surprise me if Swerve or Nana didn't bring up Jimmy in reference to the robe. I'm also going to call this now and it's going to be something that will piss a lot of people off, but I'm betting Ricochet either cuts the robe up or burns it. What would be a really nice touch is if that drives Swerve to go off the deep end and the saving grace for Swerve, of all people, would be Hangman talking Swerve out of doing anything too drastic and to focus on kicking Ricochet's ass in the ring instead. Something like Hangman has been down the path Swerve is going down, Hangman knows he did something terrible to Swerve with the house and everything, and losing Jimmy's robe may have broken Swerve, but don't go down the same path he, Hangman, went down.

Funny story, for me anyway regarding the Toni Storm match. So I dozed off for just a little bit while watching Dynamite. I woke up during the Toni Storm match. When I watched what was going on I thought it was Mariah May, which was weird because they advertised a Toni Storm match. And then they showed or talked about Mariah at the commentary desk and then I got really, really confused. The combination of just waking up, seeing Toni dressed up like Mariah, and then seeing Mariah at commentary really fucked me up.

Juice Robinson is a luckier man than Buddy Matthews. Actually, both of those dudes can eat shit. I’m not jealous. You are.

Saying it's not AI and just a bad Photoshop by the artist is horseshit. AI can't figure out hands and fingers for whatever reason. It's the biggest telltale sign AI was used for something. When AI starts creating synths to replace humans, we'll easily be able to tell who is human and who is machine when we see someone with 8 fingers or 3 fingers on one hand.

I mean, it sucks, a lot, but if you had fusion surgery then things aren't going to get better for you. And if you're snapping metal screws that were used for fusing bones together...it sounds like it would be time to call it a career.

Trent. Is. Hurt. People keep asking and he fucked his neck again. In this case, he snapped the screws where he had fusion surgery.

Fucking AI.

For a moment, because it was Sami, I thought KO was going to give him the Steenalizer.

Voiced by Ralph Ineson too.

It may be because I'm watching Raw once it's done or close to when it's done and there are no commercials making the show 2 1/2 hours, but I feel like Raw has been much better paced the last 2 or 3 weeks. So much so that this is the second week in a row that I was surprised I was already watching the main event. That opening segment ruled and showed exactly why Jey Uso is the right guy for this role. Jey picking Gunther knowing Gunther is going to be going after him on sight every week is a story I'm going to love. By March or April you'll have announcers begging Jey to not go after Gunther to save himself. Go full Vader vs Flair with this. Hell, sprinkle in a little of Dreamer and Sandman, just the, "thank you sir may I have ANOTHA" moment though. The Charlotte promo...Yeesh... Seth must have taken Charlotte's promo as a challenge because his promo was even worse. It didn't help that he was dressed up probably worse than he's been dressed in months. His motivation for his attire last night must have been "shittiest Undertaker ever." God, Seth sucks. The main event swerved me big time a few times. I actually thought Sami was going to beat Punk when he reversed the GTS. Really good match and the post match stuff had my head spinning. First I thought KO was trying to stir shit by starting a Sami/Punk feud. Then KO hits Sami with a package piledriver. I've been thinking for awhile that KO was going to be leaving the company because he's been losing every feud and every match lately. I think finishing on a loser leaves town match with Sami beating him would be the perfect way to send off KO.

I've been to 3 and 23. I'm too old now to remember much from 3. I'm going back once they announce whenever Indy is going to have it, which will probably be 2027 because it sounds like it's going to be in New Orleans again in 2026. JT has been posting on the board again.

iShowSpeed had more than a bruise. Part of the skin on his calf was shaved off. I thought Penta might have been hurt in the Rumble because there was a good long while where Penta was in the corner talking to officials and working out his leg. It wouldn't surprise me if Rey had his bell rung after getting spiked early on in the match. The Drew thing still smells like a work because it's the exact shit he's "done" in the past.

I almost want to say JT might have been there too? I can't remember, but HBK vs Cena was the best match to end the show with. It hadn't happened on that scale before, Cena was the guy in the company even though live audiences were starting to like shitting on him, and it was for the bigger title at that point. For Taker and Batista, the streak wasn't the huge thing it would become but it was becoming a bigger deal at that point. The crowd was way into each match, probably HBK vs Cena more so though.

And I think Brian said it, but I'll never get what they see in Charlotte. In the time she was gone the entire division passed her by and then some. She has never been that good. The most I could say about her is that she was maybe the most athletic women's wrestler on the roster at that height, but nearly elite athleticism is the bar in that division now. The crowd went pretty mild for Charlotte, and even more so for Nikki. All that said, I'll take her over Nia Jax.

As someone who was there at WM23, HBK vs Cena going on last was the right move.

Fay Vincent dead is better than Manfred alive.

Also, we need to talk about the crazy angle of Bron’s spear on Roman. That was crazy.

This is why I don’t get people saying Jey shouldn’t have won or he’s not good enough to main event either night or being surprised he won. I watch SD by way of clips on YouTube and until Raw was on Netflix, that’s how I watched Raw too. It makes me wonder if these people watch WWE at all beside even with how I keep up with it it’s been pretty clear it was going to be Punk or Jey and Jey has more than earned his spot by being one of the hottest acts in the company since becoming Main Event Jey Uso. Is he the best wrestler in the ring? No, but damn does that guy have a special connection with the crowd. Go after Gunther and slay the dragon.

I’m surprised Jey winning is that much of a surprise to some people. I figured it would be him or Punk.

They just opened up some more seats for tonight. They’re going to have nearly 70k fans in house. So think about this…The MCMGs are about to perform in front of nearly 70k people in a featured match. That’s fucking crazy.
