CM Punk is Michael Jordan. Many people are saying it. So true. So true.

This. Beyond the Majors issues, the multiverse stuff blows and there have been obvious quality control problems for a while. No reasonable person would object to a pivot. They won’t pivot, because that would signal weakness, but they should. Joanna is wise

On top of all this, and I hate to relitigate this forever, I have questions about the report that came out after everything that went down stating the Bucks were willing to work with Punk if he could be cool for six months. Were the terms of his double-secret probation even laid out to him?

Pretty sure they’re talking about Pillman.

The multicolor ropes were good and Tony was a coward for backing down.

So true. In dunking on you for being tedious, I’m actually pretending they’ve got packed houses every week. You’re still so good at reading.

“People calling me on my bullshit means I’m over the target. My persecution proves my virtue!”

So true. This is the first we’re all hearing about any of AEW’s potential shortcomings. We never discuss this here. Thank you, brave truth-teller.

Is this thing being added to the archives immediately? Sounds like it’s more than worth the $10 or whatever and I can catch up on some stuff.

Get ready to groan when it’s Dolph.

Sony has informed Mayim Bialik that she will no longer be sharing hosting duties of the syndicated version of Jeopardy!

About that

There’s always rumors.

Per SRS, Kenny was diagnosed with diverticulitis. He was sick even before his match with Ethan Page.

Doesn’t even need to subscribe. There’s so much interesting stuff on their YouTube and podcast feed. Free of charge! Gratis!

Lethal vs Briscoe should be a draw. “Well at least one of them is going to get a win” Oh?

I use “tape delay” every week now. Hasn’t been exciting enough to sit through an ad break for a while now and it’s a time saver.

Use more and/or larger ninjas. They’ve got Wardlow and Hobbs size ninjas now. I fully believe that Samoa Joe is still kidnap-able.

The Devil angle has no possible satisfying conclusion that I can think of. I also don’t care and it’s a drain on my interest in these shows. Anyone I like who has been pitched as the reveal deserves better than trying to explain and carry off all this nonsense. And beyond that, there are some people who I’m actively seeking to avoid going forward who seem more and more likely to be the reveal (if they couldn’t give me the good work-shoot personal issue bullshit when they actually had Punk and I’d have run through a brick wall to give them my money, maybe don’t make me think about the failings of this company by making this about Jack Perry and glass). At least the prospect of Sammy and Kyle matches is on the horizon. That’s something I guess. Whoever said the best way to watch this show right now is to skip the promos and angles is right. Stuff stinks. Genuinely wonder if the clout vampire thing got under Jericho’s skin. Speaking of not making us think about the failings of this company, no need to ever mention The Firm again. As Jericho would say, just like this Devil stuff, it’s a stupid idea from bad creative. Brody vs Andrade ruled. Love that we’re getting all these Brody singles matches. Gonna suck when he goes back into hibernation for six months after the tourney is over. When they brought up his Royal Rampage win, I got bummed out about how long ago that was. Maybe Jarrett vs Lethal is on the horizon. Something for me to look forward to. Roderick Strong is getting TV time and I hit fast forward every time his voice enters the chat. Remarkable achievement making more Roddy a bad thing. The neck strong stuff is stupid, he’s Roddy Strong, just let him wrestle. In almost twenty years, I can’t remember a time I’ve been put off by him. The state of things right now. I’d say at least Samoa Joe is impossible to make lame, but he might get kidnapped by ninjas next week.

A craven attempt to bring the most popular movies of the year into the conversation, introduced in the wrong year since two of the year’s big hitters are a big part of the actual conversation. Insert shitty joke about Sound of Freedom.

Guy beat Punk on TV, he’s keeping his name and going straight to Raw.

I’m thinking tune-up for a match on the New Year’s Day show.
