Actually once I realized they could swap shows with the US and IC title if both change hands on Sunday, I kind of think that's where they're heading. But, if so, i imagine Ryder and Young will both hold them only long enough to lose them to the people they really want to hold them.

I was so disappointed with this. I was really excited about the brand split and wanted to start watching SD but I can't imagine why I would now. AJ is the only person on the whole roster I am excited about, and Ill just watch his clips on youtube. I love Becky but there is no one there I have any interest in seeing…

Once they went off air Smackdown started getting three picks. By then the damage was done. They should have had even picks, then let Raw take the extras to get a bigger roster. My friend and I were doing a mock draft simultaneously and he won the coin toss for Raw. It was so frustrating. Three picks to two in the…

Thank you. The genuinely means more to me than it probably should. I never commented anywhere online until I discovered the Av Club, and I sure do miss those days. I just had a new baby so I may be commenting more these days as I look for something quiet to fill my bleary early morning hours when its my turn to be…

I went from coming her dozens of times a day and reading every article, even about things I had no interest in, to get into the discussions, to stopping by every few days for Raw reviews and the sporadic MWOF. No offense to anyone here now, but the comment sections are barely worth bothering with anymore, and I go…

Losing the writers to the Dissolve was brutal, but it was really the atrocious redesign that killed what used to be the best site on the planet for me. My friend i(who wasn't a reader here, but knew this was the only place I went online) interviewed for a programmer job right before the redesign launched and broke my…

This is the only record in the old where I like the bonus disk better. The version of I am the Cancer on there kills me.

They are orphans who have been trained their whole loves to be spies and assassins by Varys. Qybourne (sp?) made them his after Varys took off.

No, they were North of the wall, and that is the magic wall they can't cross.

I thought the kids looked cold and emotionless, which is perfect and scary. I didn't see any anger at all, just unfeeling determination.

With the captions on, it was definitely Robert can never find out.

Why? Isn't this a place for discussion? I'm sure that particular line of discussion will continue past the end of the show and books both and why shouldn't it? That's a valid and interesting thing to talk about. It's not a competition between book readers and non-readers, it's a discussion among people who are…

He actually planned one trilogy with the first three books we got planned to be the first two, then a time jump for all the kids to grow up and everyone to get in place, then one book to end the story. That was the original outline. Then he decided he couldn't make the time jump work (which still seems like a…

I think the only thing that makes all of the Dorne time make sense is if that ends up being where Dany first lands. She makes an alliance with Dorne against the Lannisters. But we'll see.

She's really not that technically proficient though. Certainly the least technically proficient of the whole crop of new women wrestlers. She can do some cool moves but often seems awkward in the ring (and on promos) to me. She is pretty good at playing a heel, but not, to me, very good at playing a wrestler.

Jesus, you have a real issue with this. About the article which was posted early in the morning. And as he explained earlier but you refuse to acknowledge, about her character persona which, while it doesn't bother me, is undeniably a loud and grating persona on purpose.

And even Rollins push was designed to make him look as weak as possible.

As if there is anyone, even children, in this day and age who watches wrestling and doesn't read about it online. Every wrestling fan is a smark these days. There are no casuals.

Yeah and keep in mind live you can't really hear what's being said very clearly anyway.

I think the Ambrose Lesnar match was killed by Joe's blood at Takeover. Steph was reportedly livid and now there are rumors that Ambrose begged for more brutal spots and was turned down. I think they were horrified with Joe's bloodbath (which in my opinion added so much drama to that match) and so pulled the plug on…
