I don't know why, but this headline just makes me laugh.

Ricochet dropped his Speed Title to Andrade, so you know he's really leaving.
What is the point of the Speed Championship, by the way?

3 minute time limit. They post them on Twitter for people with short attention spans.
It’s fucking dumb, but if guys like Andrade are getting paid full contracts for having 3 minute matches, damn dude, get your money.
I found it funny he beat Karl Anderson in 45 seconds and then we’re just supposed to be interested in Good Brothers wrestling for the NXT Tag Titles a few days later.

AJ Styles is working Marifuji in NOAH on July 13th.
That should be a crazy match.

WWE has trademarked Talla Tonga and Caesar Sokoa. Word is that’ll be Hikuleo & Jacob Fatu
Damn those names suck. “What are we gonna call the tall one? I got it, Talla!”
They’ll make it work though I’m sure. I’m not being sarcastic saying that, they’re Samoan, they’re in the Bloodline story, they’ll get over and pushed for years as such

Caitlin Clark & Aliyah Boston vs. Asuka & Kairi confirmed for Summerslam
Clark will make Kairi look like a million bucks, she knows how to take an elbow like a champ.
But seriously, they need to have McAfee wrestle on at least one of these. Not kidding.

Chelsea coming out in a Reese jersey (I wanted to come out to support my favorite women’s basketball player…but…Angel Reese isn’t here?). Trash talks Caitlin, does the ring gesture and Caitlin shoves her down and Chelsea takes an ass over tea kettle bump to the floor. Babyface (whoever) raises Caitlin’s hand and you get the hometown hero pop.
Simple.
Don’t overbook it, which they will.

I'd love to hear how switching to Netflix impacts their long-term building planning. Do you hold off on booking out too far in case things really blow up?

Ah, the benefits of becoming a billion dollar business. You hire people that try to earn their keep by coming up with things like "movie about a sport" that gets everyone in the meeting nodding.

That's literally Vince and Bruce speak right there. Vince says it because he's insecure and wants his life to be about something sexy, not that no good pro wrestling. Bruce says it because Vince likes it. Corporate hacks say it because Vince and Bruce will like it and they want to keep their job. Hunter likes it because it will get interviewers to nod. |

The Backlund belt on Rock looked like the early 90s women's belt.

As I watched the doc, I was thinking about how many layers of storytelling I could bore a non-wrestling fan with while watching it. Incredible.

I thought it was an ok doc. I always enjoy the footage of behind the scenes prior to a show, like the Rock talking about hitting his spots and the camera being there.
The rest was fine, your standard WWE doc.
Rollins deserves more credit than he got for doing that weekend with a fucked knee. Roman deserves credit for having to switch opponents and stories before the biggest show of the year. Both of which didn’t really get much time to tell their story in all this.
It was a doc to make you think The Rock & WWE thought this was all the fans idea to change the Mania main event. So WeWantCody trending for 3 days and Rock getting booed completely made you change it and go “you know, it’s the fans who are right, we have to give them what they want”. When the flying fuck has it ever been that easy? I think it was money fell through for Mania 39 for Rock/Roman, they thought they could get to 40, but Cody got hot after 39 and they pivoted then. No way was the biggest Mania ever pivoted a month and a half before it happened.

Oh and the footage they put in of YouTube/Tik Tok dorks fake reacting to every segment on WWE TV and then losing their minds when “oh my god, we’re getting it, WE ARE GETTING ROMAN VS ROCK!!”
Those dweebs annoy me to no end.
