Jericho is much braver than I am in taking a flying knee from Jorge Masvidal. I don’t care if he is pulling it, if I were in Jericho’s shoes, I would never even consider it. The replay suggested it didn't even connect Nah it hit. A FN poster who went said he had a lump on his forehead already when he was leaving...

Having not watched a second of MMA in my life and having zero interest in it, I have no idea who any of these people are or why I should care. The woman who punched Jericho stands out as having some swagger and presence about her, but the guys are just blank bodies to me other than the one who gave Jericho the running knee. I don't either, but "these are a bunch of top MMA fighters associated with Lambert" is all you really need to know for their role in the storyline thus far. Lambert's the real character, his entourage is there to make him seem important and protect him from reprisals, a more dangerous version of the gaggle of security guards a heel might have to protect him. If one or two of them go on to be wrestlers too, then great, there's their first introduction.

Super hope the American Top Team crew doesn't end up wrestling actual matches cause I have distinct memories of TNA putting them in a cage match that was like 15 minutes of sloppy drunk brawling. King Mo was so so bad, im happy that he wont be in this storyline.

The promo they showed of them on Elevation was fantastic tonight. Best promo Sky's ever cut imo.

I don't know why, but I feel like Andrei Arlovski was just born to be a pro-wrestler.

King Mo was so so bad, im happy that he wont be in this storyline. King Mabel was bad enough, not King Mo too! This angle soured me on an otherwise great rampage last week. Won't make that mistake again, I'll skip any of this nonsense. I don't care and have no idea why I should, especially if it doesn't seem like any of the MMA goons are going to be regular decent wrestlers. Hell I thought America's Top Team was a weird name for a promotion, not a gym, didn't even know that was a thing on that scale.

If I remember right the only person of name value that showed up in TNA was Colby Covington who did not get involved with anything

Brock looks like a caged animal that's going to rip your arms off and ragdoll you. Arlovski looks like the more "professional" kind of killer. Basically, if Arlovski had the aptitude for wrestling as both a worker and a character, he gives off the vibe of being an even better version of Malakai Black

I mean, I don't follow MMA, is he a rapist or anything?

I mean, I don't follow MMA, is he a rapist or anything? Nope. Not an expert on the guy, but he was born in the Soviet Union, trained in boxing and Sambo,and then moved to the US to fight. Apparently just from a quick wiki search, he put out a PSA against dog fighting (his nickname is "The Pitbull", and if I'm not mistaken, I think he actively adopts them), and is just a happily married dude with a kid. To be honest, the vibe he gives off is "What if Miro went into MMA into professional wrestling?". Looks like a killer, and could definitely murder you, but is really just a genuinely nice guy. All in all, pretty wholesome. Andrei is a frustrating fighter to watch, because he's the epitome of a glass cannon. He's a knockout artist with insane speed for his weightclass, but his chin is made of saltine crackers. Honestly? Team him up with Miro, and let them wreck fools, if he wants in the business. Miro can do most of the heavy lifting, and Arlovski can get his shit in and look like the terminator.

Someone called 'Pitbull' that doesn't totally suck is just icing on the cake!

His mouthguard (or at least used to be, I stopped watching UFC for the most part) is dog fangs.

Shit’s getting serious. Your stores actually get figures?? This was someone else’s picture but on a related note, yes actually. Depending the targets I’ve hit I’ve been seeing the most AEW figures ever. I saw a Darby with the TNT title at target, I was shocked.
