Nothing? Heels are bad dudes/ladies who say and do bad things so you can boo them. They are playing characters on TV. Saying nasty and vile shit about current events is an effective way to do this.
No one makes actors apologize for saying shitty things in tv/movies to get cheap heat, I don't get why we hold wrasslers to some higher standard.

He wants to support shitty people and companies, let him. You're above that, and that's cool, but he's not gonna learn if he hasn't yet, don't do this

I hope Booker's fulltime return means the return of Fav 5
Finished Impact. Final thoughts:
Positives:
-The intro with all the wrestlers coming to the event was really cool
-The new graphics look nice
-I dig the announce booth look
-Awesome Kong is back and had a cool return
-Aries vs. Low Ki was okay
-Not a ton of replays during matches
Negatives:
-Lighting is way too dark
-Low Ki, Joe, and EY all turned heel for some reason? What?
-Knockouts had a battle royal that was totally forgettable
-The sound was too low at times when announcers or wrestlers were speaking
Meh:
-Wolves vs. The Revolution
-Angle vs. MVP
-Both title changes
-Josh Mathews...didn't really feel like he was there
Okay, 'nite.
Based on the spoilers of future episodes, I don't think I'll be watching regularly.

Holy shit @ this ref counting Angle's victory over MVP. LOL.
This looks like it would be a glitch in the next Yukes WWE game.

Yeah, I'm still not sure how him sliding around like that is physically possible.

Wade Keller says Booker is also being moved to Raw to help counter-act JBL. Think Booker on the pre-show panels instead of his old Smackdown announcing role.
Keller also is now leaning more towards Bryan/Lesnar happening, simply because he doesn't think Bryan would talk about wanting the match unless Bryan knows it's the plan. "I can't imagine he'd talk about it and put it in fan's heads unless he knows it's the direction. Otherwise, he's actively encouraging fans to turn on the actual direction."
Trying not to get my hopes up.

That series is still going? I loved them, I just thought they stopped with 4. I know I just heard a bit ago they plan on doing an update, forget if it's another movie, a remake, or another show though.
Might as well do Tremors as a series.

Gotta say, I like the announce booth setup for Taz and Josh Mathews. Feels more professional that Taz and Tenay near ringside.
Bruh Josh looking like "Man I miss WWE"
Eh. I don't know. Bryan's always been pretty candid in interviews, with or without the WWE's permission.
We'll see what happens. In my mind, Bryan vs. Lesnar is THE match at Wrestlemania 31. The Reigns train has been losing traction for months.

The Reigns train can keep going but it needs to change course or it will de-rail. Take the spotlight off of him a bit, allow him to develop more.

I feel this part needs to be changed to fit the locomotive metaphor.

I was slightly off, there's a 5th one planned to release like this year or next.
I misread this as "do Tremors: the series" at first but then i found out that there actually was a short-lived TV series so yeah, do that too

Slow the train down, poke the coal until it gets hot again.
Choo Choo fuck off.

They got rid one of their decent announcers because of the Network flop. It's ridiculous. Scott Stanford is another guy they barely do anything with and he's great.
If Bryan beats Lesnar at Mania...do you have Rollins cash in there and then?...and WIN? And then beat Bryan at the following PPV, leaving Bryan without the belt AGAIN? Or do you wait for Seth to call his shot at...Summerslam? Can he do that? WOULD he do that? I don't see Rollins cashing in and making a match. I see him cashing in after the champ is down and out, but I just don't see how you make him champ without making the guy he beats, either Bryan, Lesnar, or Reigns, look kind of foolish in the process, and then hanging around with nothing to do.

Suggestion for February OT: The Great Reigns Train Robbery
The bandit that fires at the camera is Justus D. Barnes -- Justice D. Brine

Well they already copied the Wyatt Family with James Storm and DB with Eric Young. They are pretty tasteless at ripping off gimmicks from other organizations. We should really just pretend they don't exist.

DR DUNCAN's ROYAL RUMBLE FANTASY BOOKING DIAGNOSIS:
Since The Authority's back and all that shit; they're gonna call out Bryan. Notice how Bryan's been singling out Ziggler in his comeback promo. Just to spite Bryan they give him the number one spot. Bryan Sina smirks and say fine, I'll just win anyway lol. Then Bryan gets beat down because you know it's fucking happening.
Come Rumble it's the final four between Rollins (having lost the match to Brock retaining), Ambrose, Reigns, and MAH boi D BRINE. As soon as this happens you just know the place is gonna cheer the fuck out of Bryan. Bryan eliminates Dean, Roman eliminates Rollins. It comes down to just Roman and Bryan in a stare off. They have a match for a good 6-8 minutes. Then The Authority is at ringside consisting of J + J, Kane, HHH, and Steph.
They beat down Bryan and only Bryan. Then they stand him up for Roman to Superman Punch Bryan to the ground. As soon as Roman is about pick up Bryan *CAWW CAWW*
Sting legit appears from the rafters and cleans house and does his schtick. Sting beats up Roman and Roman rests on the ropes then OUTTA NOWHERE, Bryan dropkicks Roman over the top ropes and wins the 2015 Royal Ramble! YES'ng here on end and all that stuff.
Please criticize, poke holes, praise it, whatever, just wanted to get that off my chest.

WWF In Your House 9: International Incident 7/21/96
UPDATE:
Things that suck in 1996 WWF: Just about everything. HBK, despite being the best guy in his match, drags the match to a halt whenever he's in the ring. Marc Mero has no idea how to wrestle as anyone but Johnny B. Badd. Taker/Goldust can not put on an entertaining match to save their lives. The Body Donnas had a face run.
