I hope they got Marvel's permission before using that photo of Luke Cage in the middle of fun times with Jessica Jones.

What you got? Brock vs Drew Fiend vs Roman Sasha vs Bayley Becky vs Charlotte vs Shayna Keith Lee vs Braun Ko and Joe vs Rollins and Murphy Rated RKO vs The OC and pure fantasy booking with no inferences John Cena vs Adam Cole. I'll add Nakamura vs. Bryan IC Title, SD Tag Title gauntlet, Andre BROTHER Royale, Lashley/Rusev/Lana/Liv mess, and a U.S. Title ladder match.

Don't do Bryan like that, man.
At least let him have a dream match with one of the top NXT dudes or Nak (I know, I know, the Nak/AJ stuff was a let down) or someone.

I was in shock when I heard this on the news.
Then about an hour later I read online that his beautiful daughter was also one of those on board.
Awful. RIP Mamba and Gianna.

The Local Yokel himself, Demon Kane. Couldn't care less about MMA.
If Kane wins I figure they'll have his title match at the Saudi show instead of Wrestlemania since there's a screen grab of Wyatt/Kane for that event that's been put out there.

In every picture like this, Cody has this grin on his face like he knows how pissed Triple H is going to be when he sees this.

Who is Matt Mcgloin? Was he the backup to the backup in the NFL or something? Thought he was the former Penn State QB, then remembered that was McSorley. Then I looked him up and he was a Penn State QB. Looks like he was mostly a backup with the Raiders for four seasons, with average numbers, and most of his playing time was as a rookie in 2013. I'll have to look up the XFL rosters here in a bit, but if this is a guy they're using as a selling point of the league, yikes.

Oh wait, it gets better. They sent me two. That guy should really be named Pat McGloin. Vince should just kayfabe this league and bring in a returning Rod "He Hate Me" Smart as McGloin's archrival Phil McCracken.

The moment I have waited for. Please WWE, don't get in their way, just let them go out there and do the damn thing. We might be witnessing history, folks.

The XFL relaunch might be the only instance of someone convincing Vince to go through with a horrible idea doomed to fail, and not the other way around.

First off, you have to push people that the audience likes and reacts to.
As for the appropriate way to push them, a lot of it has to do with vulnerability.
You have to find the perfect middle ground, they can't be so invulnerable that the audience gets bored/turns on them, or so vulnerable that the audience loses faith that good things will ever happen for them and stops investing in them. Even if you want a slow build, you have to keep giving them bread crumbs along the way.
Also, I think shorter title reigns helps people not get bored and leaves them wanting more from that performer. Four consecutive PPV defenses for a face champion is about right.

SWERVE: Viagra in a cage.
Because he is also sexing Lana. That's why everyone is freaking out when they get a peak at what's inside, the terrifying thought of horny Rowan with a new gimmick, Sexual Red Velvet.

Good use of his platform and position in the company.

Harry's quote sounds more believable. He just thought Vince and Pat were weird (two guys that were always a bit eccentric, now in their 70's) and maybe rambled too much, not that they were intentionally trying to turn the funeral into a Charlie Murphy True Hollywood Story.

Vince is crazy but until corroborated to a better degree I don't buy this. It doesn't pass the smell test.
EDIT: Also, SBG has ZERO credibility with me since his main view on life is wrestlers on steroids + coke = good and just trashing Vince/WWE for made up shit when there's real stuff he can point out that should be or should've been addressed.

I just saw the new ad.
I liked Cena's portrayal way better, more personality and a more distinct voice. The new guy fell flat.

I'm of the opinion that no one that's had spinal fusion surgery should ever even consider getting back in the ring, especially if they have kids.
At the same time Edge is a favorite of mine and I'd love to see him have a few more matches. He'd be risking a lot, though.
