I'm trying to find the article about this, I think it was around 2008 or so that WWE announced they were rebranding from World Wrestling Entertainment to just WWE being the three letters which now won't stand for anything. Am I misremembering this? No I remember this too. I have a feeling KFC did a similar thing.

Can you imagine how frustrated Toni Storm would be if she was put in a tables match? Every time she'd go to set up a table to put her opponent through it, it'd break on her.

A couple of questions from someone who stopped watching for a few years.
1. After Becky unified the women's titles at whatever that Mania was, how did the belts get un-unified? 2. Does Finn Balor do the devil gimmick anymore? I don't remember reading about it, or seeing it anywhere at all. I thought that was something interesting for Balor to do, considering he's not the most dynamic promo in the world. 3. Why is Michael Cole not on RAW, and when did that happen? He is considered the main announcer, no? Has there been a dirt sheet explanation for Cole being removed from RAW?

"We're violent men by nature. Fashionably violent." was a fantastic line from MVP tonight and honestly way too cool for Monday Night Raw.

He is considered the main announcer, no? Has there been a dirt sheet explanation for Cole being removed from RAW? 1. They did a deal at MITB where Becky defended the Raw title against Lacey, then had to immediately defend the SD belt against Charlotte who she lost to, then Charlotte got cashed in on by Bayley and immediately lost her belt. 2. He dropped the demon stuff entirely when he went to NXT, going for a more hard hitting type gimmick the PRINXE (he broke his jaw like three title matches in a row). It remains to be seen if he'll bring it back for the main roster. 3. Smackdown became the A show when it moved to Fox, and Corey and Cole were swapped over there. Then a bunch of announcer changes happened since then leading to Pat and Cole as the SD team.

Her match with Charlotte came after, and Bayley cashed in MITB and beat Charlotte for it afterwards. 2. He hasn't done the Demon in a while. I think Finn got kind in the mindset that WWE had mishandled it or that he was marginalizing himself in a way in that it'd make matches he didn't use the gimmick for feel minor. 3. Smackdown is in many ways WWE's number one show right now. He'll likely be moved back to Raw if/when that changes.
