And it works. My mother in law bought me a copy of Asylum's "Sinister Squad" for Xmas. THinking it was Suicide Squad.

On the bright side, that might actually be an improvement.

I enjoyed it more than the first Suicide Squad movie. Seems the Asylum made a cinematic universe out of their Avengers Grimm franchise. They did 2 Avengers Grimm films and Sinister Squad.

This is the same audience that Asylum mockbusters are marketed to.

Except WWE goes after anyone using any name remotely similar to their trademarks, which is why Kurt Russelmania had to be renamed.

Yeah, WrestleMania Backlash was basically my Twitter feed last weekend.  Lots of people seemingly offended that people actually showed up for the show and enjoyed it.

Joe is by far the best commentator they have. I wonder if he's any less produced than the others. If he is produced just as much as anyone else than even more props to him. CM Punk was amazing on commentary in WWE too. In my mind I don't see Vince Cussing Joe, Punk or even Booker when he was doing commentary but then again he treated Foley like the other Commentators.

I've been seeing random clips of Joe cutting promos during his WWE run and he's come across so much better than everyone else, like what he says is his words and not like he's interpreting other people's words. I hope he isn't retired from the ring because he still very good over all.

Punk and Heyman would be the dream team of commentators for me. I always loved Punk's work from IWA-MS to ROH, and then to WWE.

Arguably Punks greatest call ever was the Joe v Necro Butcher, IWA:MS match at the arena.  Punk, Kingston & Prazak were awesome for that one.

And Punk's second greatest call was earlier in the show, when this exchange happened:

PRAZAK: "So, CM Punk, are you sticking around for the CZW show tonight?"

CM PUNK: "FUCK Noooooooooooooooooo!"

I believe that was also when he was signing the "Taco Bucks song" in his DMX voice  "Starbucks what"  "Taco Bell What"  " put em both together you get Taco Bucks"

How does it compare to Punk's Homicide impression?  "They got me wre-stl-ing KoGEEma..."

My mom called all wrestling “wrestlemania” when I was a kid.  She couldn’t tell you what WWF or WCW or anything else was but she knew the wrestlemania name. Maybe they are trying to hit the “old people who call things by one brand name market”

 

I don’t think the rebrand will encourage her to order the show or subscribe to the network.

Wrestlemania! Streaming live on Nintendo!

Stone Cold Steve Austin was just 1989 Eric Embry crossed with 1995 Sandman. Talk amongst yourselves.

And Dutch Mantel. 

Let's throw in a hint of Magnum Tokyo for good measure.

Check this video package out. Very well done.

All for that. LOVE Molly Holly.

Are they at least using the Bash at the Beach '95 tag team title 3-way as a legal precedent? I'm not going to click that to find out!

When Shawn was doing that exhausted collapse into a pin spot in '03, it was ruled a draw vs Hunter. Bryan and Edge would seemingly count the same way, and Roman is on top.

This made it into the Hulu version. It was nice, more importantly it pretty much said they will add more members. I assume Thatcher ends up joining.

Its a shitty take probably being used as an excuse to give Edge another shot at the belt, probably in an actual singles match this time around. 

The beginning of Dave’s heel turn?
