Braun Strowman was more eloquent and passionate with Austin about his career.

Ambrose comes off just like Piper did on Austin's podcast in 2013-14, actually. Given the similarity in education level and, err, lifestyle choices before making it big, this makes a bit more sense.

First let me say sorry in advance for my foul mouth and run on's lol hard to think about grammar when you're this fired up

Here is something for the dirt sheets:

I usually would NEVER lower myself down to someone's level like hers but this has to be said to defend myself and other soon to be mommies.

I was recently forwarded some ugly comments about myself and other women posting "disgusting " pregnancy photos. Her expressing how gross it is and that no one wants to see that and blah blah. After going through pregnancy I have a newfound love for all mothers and the courage it takes to love yourself in and out no matter how you look. I can't tell you how many beautiful messages I've got asking me where I get my courage to love every part of this process and to thank me for sharing it. Or messages thanking me for my posts because it kept them motivated or somehow helped them through the process, and also explaining the fear of judgment for posting a proud belly picture on their social media pages. And it's bc of idiots right here. First off you are a washed up drug addict. You are also a whore for any amount of money and recently just did a porno for some extra cash. Bravo formally known as "SUNNY" but now just trash Tamera Sytch. We are all so proud of you. You say "congrats at being proud of your baby bump but the world doesn't need to see it right?" Ohhhh but you're so proud of your vagina at your age you want to show the entire world for nickels in a porno? Lol. Huge accomplishment right there.
It's stupid asses like you that scare other women out of being themselves and out of sharing what they want to share on social media. It's stupid asses like you that put fear in woman's minds so they can't be strong and confident in their own skin. I mean I'm not sure why I am so surprised, you aren't a role model for anyone. So for all the mommies and soon to be mommies out there that want to show off how proud they are of their bodies we all say GO FUCK YOURSELF!

This photo is just for you!! I hope it makes you vomit

Does Fin have multiple entrances in 2K17? Just saw the chainsaw one (lol why it was a one time thing) but I assume he has a normal one, and a demon-less one?

This Austin/Ambrose sit down...

Why did a multi billion dollar company put their championship on a shitty 22 year old grungehead from a mid-1990s season of the Real World. In 2016.

Because he's over with the fans, which is like priority #1 for your company's top guy.

Conor Mac is 100% right. With few exceptions hese new breed of guys really are all dweebs who have been so conditioned to do everything and anything the WWE way that they have no idea how to create their own identities. They are Vince and Dunn Puppets.

Pretty much. Your sense of disbelief survives knowing Tyrion and Cersei probably got drunk on wine together they're both actually good actors.

Wrestling is full of bad actors, so you need as little knowledge of what's real seeping in as possible or we get the current scene, where the only people who care who wins or loses are 10 year old children and 30 year old men in t-shirts writing long posts on the Internet.

I couldn't believe that after they said it.

All they cared about was placating HHH and setting Cena and Rock up.

It's why he left. No matter how hard you try and work if you aren't a Vince body guy you womt get a shot.

Bryan only got a real shot at mania 30 because the network would have collapsed and there probably would have been a riot in the building.

The fans having shitty taste evidenced by liking this guy so much aside, there's other guys popular with the fans who come across as professionals. Or hell, as adults. Or people who care.

AJ Styles could have been in that spot.

That interview was just brutal overall, let alone for someone hailed for their speaking ability and not much else.

Braun Strowman was far more charismatic and engaging and passionate with Austin than Dean Ambrose. Think about that.

Watching Ambrose's decline from "young and hungry" to "Eh, fuck it" has been truly astounding. I've never seen such regression.

The only time it's seemed like he's cared since the Shield ended was the world title reign, which was almost immediately negated by them instantly making a new more important belt. So yeah, when he drops it well before the end of the year to someone they actually want to see with it, he'll be even more "eh, fuck it"

I haven't watched wrestling in about a month (since the live draft) but i'm disappointed that there's no shitty Lucha Thing shirt on wweshop.com

Has the draft had a positive effect on the shows?

Last year I went through all the SummerSlam main events to hype myself up for SummerSlam. I need something to do this week. Maybe I'll do all the NXT Take Overs.

By the way, I'm pretty sure last year's main event is in my top 5 now. Lesnar/Taker was dope, aside from the dumb finish.

Yeah, I'd say so.

Especially since it created the best WWE show: Talking Shit with Daniel Bryan and Renee Young, live on the WWE Network after SmackDown Live

Are they going straight into demon balor for his match with Seth?

I think it's dumb they're probably going to put Balor's demon side out on Raw next week. It should 100% be saved for PPV's.

Also, Finn's winning at Summerslam. They can't not have him win at this point. Gotta go all the way with it. And people will ask 'why is he different from Reigns?' He's a long-time vet, and he paid well more than his dues in NXT.

The Demon thing would be better if there was more to it, like if he wrestled differently, was more aggressive, had a different, more violent looking finisher or something but it's just Finn in some paint, it doesn't even work as a mind game intimidation thing because of that and well because it's 2016, not 1986 and he's not a very big dude to begin with. I guess maybe he's harder to beat but considering how frequently WWE does false finishes off a finish these days that doesn't mean much either.

I miss when he did something different with it before NXT.

I doubt they blow their load for a Raw. I'm interested to see what colour he'll be for SS.
