Enjoyed MitB for what it was. The Cena pop though. WOWWEE! People were expecting it and it still made them go crazy. A great comparison to MITB 10 years ago too when he was booed out the building!

Prediction: Cena wins at SummerSlam.
There’s no doubt in my mind Vince thinks Cena is the best ever and wants him to get #17. What better time to do it than at an event he is treating as almost another Mania? Roman can easily win it back next month or someone else can and Roman can do other stuff for a little while. But I think sending the crowd home happy with this legendary moment would actually be a great idea and Cena could finally get the reception Vince feels he deserves.

Lord knows how WWE managed to fuck up Becky's return so badly.

All Out was a really fun PPV. Lot's of moving parts going forward in AEW, interesting to see how it all pans out after Hangman comes back.

Stayed up for the Rumble last night but it was pretty poor. Opening match was the best.
Annoyed as I stuck a fiver on Roman to retain, Lashley to win, Edge & Phoenix to win, and Lesnar to win the Rumble at about 6/1 - Roman being dq’d cost me.

WWE is easily the worst it’s been since the early 90’s. More or less everything on it is fucking awful. Still had a good laugh watching the Rumble with a couple of mates yesterday though, but more for the wrong reasons.

Haven't watched anything for pretty much two years, since covid.
Thought I'd try and get back into it for Mania season. So signed up to the WWE Network to watch the Rumble.
Holy dogshit.
At least I can kiss my social life goodbye for the next month why I binge some of the old stuff. Silver linings and all that.

Loads of great documentaries as well as all the old stuff. Wish AEW was more accessible. I watch it on ITV4, but both shows are like three or four days behind and it means I've usually seen social spoilers or it's all moved on a bit.

During my full history watch-through it's shocking how much of early 90's WWF really is a trainwreck. Terrible gimmicks, misuse of decent talent, atrocious match-calling. Just brutal. How badly Vince fucked up nabbing Ric Flair makes me want to chuck things out the window.

I’m assuming you don’t watch the current product (because you have more sense than me), but imagine the scenario of having twenty Ric Flairs and doing sod all with them/firing them. It’s never been more apparent that the bloke in charge is a geriatric. One of the characters is called Madcap Moss. Mania is being described as “stupendous” repeatedly on TV. Nobody has used those words in fifty years.

Balor’s stuff in his last NXT run was really good, but he was a smiling dope the second he went back up to the main roster. And NXT as we knew it doesn’t exist anymore and is now excruciating viewing. I watch AEW online, but agree I wish it was more accessible. I tend to still record it from ITV but as you say it’s days later and nobody gives a fuck by then unless something massive has happened.
