this is so stupid and unhinged, I hope it happens soon “I know you got more left in the tank, but I’m about to beat it all out of you, son!” This reeks of R Truth. |

This segment left me wondering if we could have Mark Henry back as a manager in NXT. Stick him with Tyriek Igwe & Tyson Dupont and have him use his wig split theme for all 3 of them. They'd be over just for that theme.

They did it too fast. If they wanted this to work, they should've had AJ hinting at wrapping up starting like 8 months ago. Does Hunter not know how to let shit breath? I felt the same about Dom joining up with Liv. That needed to happen in a Rhea/Liv match, not a Becky/Liv match |

And then it turns out that, no, the heel is really retiring. The heel for real retiring brings out his crying kids who were looking forward to his big retirement speech that their pops was hyping up to them as the face just stands there awkwardly. "Why dad? Why would they ruin your retirement like this? You promised grandpa you'd have a great retirement speech, and that was before he..." *bursts into tears* And then it has to keep escalating into full cringe comedy territory. They do a segment in the hospital with the retired heel, but the face sneaks in Steve Austin-style to continue beating him, shaking a clipboard with the retirement paperwork on it... "SIGN IT! SIGN IT DAMNIT!", but the heel can't sign it because the face broke his hand. |

I felt the same about Dom joining up with Liv. That needed to happen in a Rhea/Liv match, not a Becky/Liv match They haven't joined up. It's still ambiguous if Dom and Liv are working together, if Liv is manipulating Dom, or if Dom is still loyal to Rhea. |

Boy, for growing up in a wrestling family, Cody sure looks like a buffoon. Are you sure he's not really Sting's kid? I'm mean things were crazy back in the 80's. |

On of these days someone is gonna wear a gaudy pastel suit to the ring and actually retire and just leave, and we're all gonna be f***ing blindsided by it lmfao Maybe not with the suit, but that’s how Edge’s retirement was pretty much. I thought Del Rio or someone would assault him |

The retired heel tries to hold a party with his closest family and friends, but the face just crashes the party and beats the shit out of the heel, while the guests just react with “what the hell, man?” |

They should redo this segment in a few years where the face champion actually beats up the guy fake retiring instead. "You think I'm stupid. I know you got more left in the tank." this is so stupid and unhinged, I hope it happens soon That would honestly be great for a dope double turn |

If you think AJ's gonna retire in a random PPV in Canada... MITB was good enough for Punk vs Cena and all of the Shield becoming wwe champion in one night. I think having AJ’s retirement match main event a big 5 event would be better than it being at the mania undercard |
