Really surprised by bringing up the picture leaks when they talked about social media. This was easily the best episode so far and I will continue to watch it, if it continues down this path. Think Graves is the perfect guy for the spot, even though he is going to tow company line a lot of time, he is still open to criticize booking.
While the "fans are stupid" thing can be pretty grating, it has been toned down quite a bit, especially with Heyman gone. JBL can now be the heel and Graves can be the face.

This is a decent idea in theory trying a more "shoot" style show but it's difficult the way they're attempting to tread the line between kayfabe and reality. I'm not sure what they're trying to achieve really. They tried going full blown shoot in the first episode and it was a disaster, this is about the best we will get.

I don't think JBL is the right person for it though. I'm not saying I want a whole show saying how terrible everything is but he's too stuck in the "internet fans booing Roman for no reason" and wrestling fans living in the basement mentality. If they're gonna shoot then I just want honesty. Graves and Bryan might be good although Bryan might talk TOO MUCH shit haha.

I watch it just for the one liners, and for that it delivers. It's the funniest Graves and JBL have been in a while, and I enjoy their work.

This is the WWE, Vince's baby and the fact is, he is going to defend his company and decisions. It's exactly why JBL is on the show. Honestly, I am just happy they stuck with JBL to be the defender of WWE rather than Paul Heyman, who was just a loud mouthed hypocrite. Do I agree with JBL's defense of Reigns? Of course not, and now you have Rosenberg jumping on the train. But on the other side of the coin, we have seen companies like TNA and WCW crap on their own product and while at first it seems cool, it ends up just looking really bad and makes the company look bad.

My feelings have changed because the fans are against him, but I've shared the same feelings Rosenberg had about the rise of Roman and the fans liking him early on before the trigger was pulled, but it was met with great dissention around here. I'm not saying you have to agree, but I'm quite pleased that someone else saw it the same way as me.

Oh Moses smell the roses. JBL: I would rather be captured by ISIS than have to spend dinner with Sami Zayn. Hear that ISIS? Your move.

Are we mad about him referencing ISIS or him saying Zayn is annoying? Because Zayn's own friends will tell you he's annoying as f***.

Oh Moses smell the roses. JBL: I would rather be captured by ISIS than have to have dinner with Sami Zayn. I wonder if there's a reason for him saying that? Hmmm. *Scrolls through Sami Zayn's twitter account. Realizes who owns the company.* Oh.

A #MeToo accusing JBL will probably surface any day now.
