And he is. He's a good storyteller, calls a good match, safe, reliable and can push himself when he needs to. He's not a catch expert but that doesn't mean he can't work.

He lost a lot of money in the crash apparently, and yes that drink he invested in didn't exactly take off. I'm assuming that in order to live the lifestyle he grew accustomed, he needed to have a steady flow of income.

Honestly, Ziggler could pull very close to the same type of money as he does now if he worked with New Japan and select gigs in North America. He would also be working less. I could see how that may be attractive to him.

If this is what they have planned for Lana in order to turn her into a star, then I have to say why bother? It doesn't make any sense. Now if this is just a ploy by Lana to either get revenge on Rusev or somewhat of a long con then maybe I can get behind it, but right now I'm definitely skeptical.

The thing is, I kind of understand the set up aspect of the curb stomp. The move does require quite a bit of suspension of disbelief, much like the 619. I think it should be a move that's used when the situation presents itself, as opposed to his regular put away move. Basically, when he pulls it out it's game over.

Which makes no sense. Most of Vince's biggest stars got over as heels and then were turned. In fact even Hogan was a badass heel in the AWA and Japan but got over so well he had to be turned. But Vince seems hell bent on getting over Reigns this way instead of allowing him to get over as a heel and I just have no idea

But yet Joe is accepting more bookings in August. If this is all being done to make his appearance on Takeover to have as much impact as possible, then kudos to the company and Joe, but I really will have to see it to believe it.

I don't think Steph is the issue there. By many accounts that I have read, she seems to share Triple H's respect for wrestling. Also, she loathes Kevin Dunn.

Even though the internet is largely made up of assholes who love his shit? That doesn't make any sense.

If you're a boxing fan or have even a cursory knowledge of the sport, you'd know pretty much how this fight was always going to go.

I've heard quite the opposite actually.

Jon may have been responsible for boosting his career but that doesn't make him a better satirist. In fact, a case could be made that what Stewart does, isn't exactly satire.

At least you're consistent in your shillery.

Not if he worked his ass in the mail room and got his degree on the sly. Firms look for that kind of commitment. Jimmy had every right to be pissed off.

How is the laughing apositive thing. If Cena laughed off Lesnar we'd be howling about Cena once again literally laughing in the face of danger. And rightfully so. One it's not really a face tactic and two it's burying your monster heel opponent. It baffles me that people actually thought that was the right thing to

I don't know. His match with Lesnar was Cena 101. Take a whole a bunch of punishment, multiple finishers, have a brief come back that somehow is the equivalent to the beating he's taken for the whole match, and have a massive out when he lost. They are intent on getting him over with Cena tactics but they're

Seriously? He's legitimately one of the most badass wrestlers in the history of the business. Just another example as to why he's only a millionaire.

The company doesn't realize the type of guy they have. He's a born heel. Let him be a heel. He essentially was at Mania. Let him get truly over as a heel then transition him once that overness starts getting cheers. It's a tried and true formula that they are intent on ignoring. It makes no sense to me.

The writer says Don isn't an anti-hero but then lists all the qualities that make him an anti-hero. I'm not sure the writer knows what an anti-hero is.

The way you used her full name seems a little too close to the dog whistling that happens when conservativesuse use Obama's full name. I doubt that was your intent, but it just stuck out is all. I know she's credited as such, but I guess I'm just too sensitive to it. I don't know.
