A connman

 

Elgin is doing an AMA in 40 minutes if you jokers have questions.

 

Srsly though may go to BITW and bones will see me from afar and think "man that guys takes are probably as good as his deep green eyes" and regret not planning his life around me

 

haha this has to have been one of the most awesome + hilarious moment ive seen in a while.

 

Yeah, it was cool Daniels finally won the ROH title but his reign has been so boring. Cody should go over, makes the most sense

 

The next couple weeks are by far the biggest in Cody's career. Very intriguing to see how he handles it. I honestly don't know if he has it in him.

 

For sure. It's make or break time for him. He really needs to shine and show he can be a main eventer.

 

Lol wtf is this new Maria song.

Garbage.

 

Nvm I thought BITW was in NY I'm dumb

 

now if you want a bad wrestling theme... god do i hate lana's new theme

 

Raw and Smackdown were both up like 500K so y'all can eat shit about poor booking decisions not pulling in viewership. lol

 

Probably go up next week for each too; Brock in the house, fall out from Big Cass, and Strowman back for RAW....and a new MITB match for Smackdown

 

Ohno vs Black tonight on NXT

 

Someone at Lucha chanting 'get your shit in' lol

 

Marty the Moth and Mariposa are the best. Love Melissa.

 

Black vs Ohno was alright.

 

Ratings have very little to do with week to week booking decisions. With summer and nba/nhl being done that's a pretty good bump theyre gonna get.

 

Post-ppv too usually helps.

That said, Smackdown has basically announced every match for Tuesday, so Ill be curious how that goes.

 

was looking at the MITB ratings; made me look at other AJ ratings. He's never gotten less than a 3.75* rating for any singles match in WWE (not counting the MSG where he got 3.5 since it wasnt streamed/televised). And its Battleground, almost a year ago, that he last got a 3.5* rating, in that 6-way tag.

Dude's basically a guaranteed 4-star match when you let him go

 

oi

 

WWECW is coming to the Network very soon I read.

But what I really want are the canon shows from the early-mid 90's like Superstars, Prime Time, and Challenge. RAW didn't become the flagship show until like 95-96ish.

 

WWECW had some gems. The first TV taping I ever went to was a Smackdown/ECW taping, and it was the second ever ECW episode. The main event was Edge & Randy Orton v. Kurt Angle & RVD. That was a fucking awesome match live. Excited to revisit it.

 

That Samoa Joe gif is amazing.

If booking has nothing to do with ratings then what the fuck does have to do with the ratings??
