If you want things to be looked into further and not have it swept under the rug, asking questions and raising it as an issue that needs to be dealt with is the way to go. Fair, but we're still actively figuring out if there's anything even worth investigating from what only Hausman has said so far aren't we? And who knows if they'll be anything else. I assume if there is, the matter will be looked into further, but I can see who currently, that was Tony's answer, unless more does in fact come out from more concrete sources other then Hausman or even them backing up Hausman's claim If he gets zero questions about it yesterday, he probably thinks it’s a non-issue. If he gets one and then he sidesteps it and that’s it, he probably thinks it’s been swept under the rug and is fine to ignore. But getting multiple questions, and also having the crowd react the way they did is a way to hopefully have them dig further into it if it hasn’t been looked into already. Public pressure is a good thing, here.

Public pressure is a good thing, here. I knew it was going to be asked, and I'm glad it was, I wouldn't have done it while Julia Hart was up there though personally, wasn't fair to her I didn't have any issue with it being asked. I hope it does that job if there's one to be had.

Safest environment in wrestling says man in Afro wig and bugout sunglasses who three months ago claimed his life was in danger. In what was just the latest backstage incident.

What happened to the person who made TK fear for his life? Is he still employed by the company? And the other backstage incidents: what happened to the guy who was responsible for those too?

He just wrestled Miro on the PPV I jest (kind of)

I did expect Mariah to clock her with that bucket. Give it a month and she will, just setting it up, also expecting something else than Roses also

Re-watching the PPV, I will never stop being entertained by Daddy Magic’s older brother relationship with Garcia. I hope they never split

Didn't see a rate the ppv thread but I enjoyed this show. A bit lackluster for the first half for sure but the last few matches really delivered.
Love that Joe is a world champion again

Love that Joe is a world champion again I’m on Mox/Kingston right now and yeah, everything up until Jay v Adam is kind of a drag. Although the all star opener was a banger too

Didn’t catch this last night, Excalibur totally spoils the main event. Max jumps on the top too to sit during his entrance and Ex goes “for one final time” and then cuts off and doesn’t say anything

Love that Joe is a world champion again I'd give it 8/10 - final three matches were great and I enjoyed the opener a ton. Some of the others like Toni/Riho were solid but three matches had some weird cloud over it which was unfortunate.

Does Joe yell “you ain’t gonna do shit” at a guy holding a “If MJF loses we riot” sign when he’s walking up the ramp?

Max jumps on the top too to sit during his entrance and Ex goes “for one final time” and then cuts off and doesn’t say anything I presumed he was going to say "for one final time tonight, over to Justin Roberts" or words to that affect. I'm pretty sure Excalibur has introduced main events like that before. I guessed someone in the back cut him off to allow for Adam Cole to enter first.

Tbf I thought Jarrett spoiled it on pre show. The signed off on pre show and literally right before it cut he just goes 'MJF is losing the belt'. And it felt a bit random and outta nowhere

And it felt a bit random and outta nowhere Honestly, between Jarrett and MJF's article (Excalibur, I am up in the air about still how he intended it), the vibe was kind of like Hogan vs Yokozuna at the King of the Ring, where promos from guys like HBK certainly seemed to set the tone that Hogan was out, that Yokozuna was absolutely going to win, and we were just going to have to see how it happens. I don't mind that sometimes, the journey was plenty as important as the destination.
