They have that division this year, I think it's called the RAW Universal Title.

If Vince is half the weird, crazy, volatile, sneeze hating, big man fetishist that we perceive him to be thanks to a million posts and comments, can you really see him letting Zayn, who injured himself in his ring entrance prior to that "star making potential" Cena match, be the proverbial big dog? For all we know, Vince may think he's doing the guy a favor by not just sticking him on 205 Live every week.

If he beats Kazarian in a grudge match, then he's one more BC for Daniels to defeat. At least that makes sense in regards to current storylines.

Wild Card 8 man tag that aired this weekend was fun. Good that they're keeping some continuity by having Page feud with Kazarian.

He's billed from Cincinnati. Spent years in one of the indies based there. Longest running, arguably biggest, rock and roll station in the area calls itself "The lunatic fringe of American FM." They've got a history of interaction with wrestling, including Dusty Rhodes once wearing one of the station's t-shirts while in the ring back when the NWA ran shows in Cincy every month or two. I really think the bookers just heard that moniker and decided to keep using it.

He looks smaller since his ECW TV title days.

It's one of them.

Heyman was the Thief, 911 was the Grue.

I wore my Pillman 2001 shirt while mowing the lawn today. Kudos to whomever printed them because the logos haven't faded off yet.

So what I'm getting out of all of this is that Brock Lesnar will beat up Booker T on the RAW after Payback, to prove he's better at it than Beatdown Strowman. This will set up the return of Jim Ross.

I can see Hudson Envy and Shotzi Blackheart being brought into this. Dahlia Black if her leg injury heals in time.

Is May 31st still the return date? Can anyone here who's been to those yet to be aired tapings mention who and what to look out for in a non-spoilerific, non-NDA breaking way?

Why Lethal again? Unless they're being bought out and he gets a final weekend Thank You run, I'm not seeing him touching any singles titles this year.

I wonder if the last line of that Chokeslam trailer, where Foley says you get used to concussions, is one day going to be revealed as why they took him off of RAW this time around.

Well, let's sort this out. Have you started any CM Punk chants at recent WWE events? Ever find yourself in a room with TNA bookers and said, "You folks are doing great from top to bottom, don't change a thing," to them? Did you sneeze in front of Vince?

At around the 12 minute mark, Warwick Davis becomes the epitome of cool.

Braun walked right up to Roman, gave Roman time to stand up and take off his mic before engaging in the hoss fight. Braun gave management plenty of time to bring out more security to stop him, or slow him down so the ambulance could get away. Angle just dropped the ball on that one. Next week Braun can just say, "I did it for Taker," and boom instant babyface, because the Attitude Era can be watered down at times, but it won't die. Orton waited till Bray was hundreds of miles away before he torched that place. Cowardly heel. Plus, burning up the cameras that magically happened to be there, instead of pulling them out as if monitors on a Spanish Announcers' Table before the big bump, was a jerk store move. They could've given those cameras, and maybe a lighting rig, to ROH as a peace offering when trying to buy their tape library.

The Giant fell off the roof of Cobo Hall and came back to work the main event. And he did it without D-Lo v 2.0 Chest protectors on. Roman will be fine.

If it's an Orton match, the real horror would be making it an Iron Man for people to try to slog through. Just bring out Jake's Snake Pit set (Jake sold separately), put it in a Boiler Room, and be done with it.

Either way, you should probably avoid getting Grape Nuts.

Exactly half as much of a scrub out as Vince's Exploding Limo. It allows for this:

I am looking forward to the three weeks where Becky and Charlotte's outside the ring friendship allows them to look past previous feuding and be a tag team in the ring. After that, well, Flair gonna be Flair, Becky gonna be Sting.

You probably weren't supposed to see Roman's boots just after he exited the ambulance, but you could see them before the vehicle was tipped. He could be storyline hurt, he could be just fine, tune in next week same Bat Time, same Bat Channel. And in that he's exactly as strong as you want him, or don't want him, to be right now.

The Fight Forever chants are coming for you.

Tonight on Talking Smack, Daniel Bryan lets it slip that the Sea Creature was Tom Magee.
