We're under voluntary shelter-in-place for the next two weeks, which basically means that you should only go out every other day based on the year of your birth. Being in Upstate NY, things a lot better than they are in the cities, but I think we are several weeks from opening everything back up. My optimistic prediction is June, but I am expecting July or August depending on how things go.
I went out for my weekly grocery run, and I'd say only about half of the shoppers are wearing any kind of face coverings. Thankfully, the workers all seemed to have them (as well as plastic guards at the register. Everything seemed wells stocked as far as food goes, but I haven't been able to find paper products for about three weeks.

Once the cases start leveling off and hospitals have everything they need to handle the number of new patients then sure, open things back up. However, it's way premature to start talking about that now.

Reading between the lines from some things he's said in interviews, I get the feeling that he was dealing with some burnout before his hiatus. Being in NXT gives him the chance to work a limited schedule and work with people he chooses to as opposed to working a full schedule as JTTS.

I was officially laid off at my retail job today, and since I was already pretty much laid off from my substitute teaching job I'm now unemployed. The good news is that I can probably file for unemployment if this lasts as long as they think it will. If not, I've got enough in savings to get me through the next few months, but it's really going to suck. I'm really regretting my career choices ATM.

It will most likely be the lowest grossing of the three, but I imagine that it will still make a boatload of money. Star Wars fandom has survived far worse things than an uneven series, so I can't see this film being the end of it.
I think going forward, the focus will be on series and one-off films. Following the Marvel model would probably be the best option. Just get some creative people to put their own spin on the story, give them a few guidelines and then try to stay out of their way.

Critics who loved TLJ seem to dislike it the most. Consensus seems to be that they played it too safe and tried to do too much.
The low rating still surprises me, but we'll see.

I think the endgame for Cole's title reign is still Ciampa, so I would be surprised if a title change happens here. I am 99% sure we are getting a non-finish and a Johnny run-in.

I'm expecting to enjoy this. I loved TFA and mostly liked TLJ, so I'm at the very least it should be a good time at the movies. Even if this totally sucks (which I don't think is likely), it's not going to "kill" my fandom for Star Wars in the slightest.

This segment may be the only time I've ever felt sympathy for The Miz.

Dolph as an idiot heel is the most I've been entertained by him in forever.

Now I just want to see Brock moved to "special guest star" status. Just have him squash the occasional annoying heel and give him the big Wrestle Mania match each year. He never needs to hold the title again.

I know Seth isn't the most liked guy on the roster right now, but I really want the title off of Brock.

The movie was a lot of fun. There's nothing revolutionary about it, but the one liners are pretty funny and there's not a lot of heavy plot weighing it down. The post credit scenes are amusing, but if you skip them you aren't missing all that much other than a mild tease for a possible sequel. Mild Roman related spoiler: {Spoiler}{SPOILER: CLICK TO SHOW}Basically, if you've seen the previews, you've seen his part in the film. No speaking lines, but he does have some fun spots in the final fight. And of course, he carries the grand tradition of wrestlers doing their signature moves in their first movie.

So Roman actually likes Cedric more than Seth. 😄
