yuck.

Wonder if Smackdown can win this week again. I also wonder if creative team is totally separate...or it's just a work brother!

New York Times
Is Everything Wrestling?

This is partly because the rest of the world has caught up to wrestling’s ethos. With each passing year, more and more facets of popular culture become something like wrestling: a stage-managed “reality” in which scripted stories bleed freely into real events, with the blurry line between truth and untruth seeming to heighten, not lessen, the audience’s addiction to the melodrama. The modern media landscape is littered with “reality” shows that audiences happily accept aren’t actually real; that, in essence, is wrestling. (“WWE Raw” leads to “The Real World,” which leads to “Keeping Up With the Kardashians,” and so forth.) The way Beyoncé teased at marital problems in “Lemonade” — writing lyrics people were happy to interpret as literal accusations of her famous husband’s unfaithfulness — is wrestling. The question of whether Steve Harvey meant to announce the wrong Miss Universe winner is wrestling. Did Miley Cyrus and Nicki Minaj authentically snap at each other at last year’s MTV Video Music Awards?

In the end, we’re all marks for a world we want to believe in.

I like the Fox News face turn. After months of shitting on "socialist" Bernie, they are pandering to the supporters of Bernie the Victim

Jerks just want to split the vote.

US Politics give me a headache
So many turns

Will Bernie get "YOU DESERVE IT" chants?

Will Hillary get a "YOU STILL GOT IT" chant?

 

[newdayrocks]

40 bucks a pop. Awww man. :\

That pricing is just awful. I'd be in for the two for $40, but they appear to have worked themselves into a shoot.

I'd go for a remastered X-Men Legends collection for that price, too.

When Joe Biden comes out and blades will he get a "E C DUB" chant?

Just watched the ROH title match live on WCPW. Holy fuck.

 

[Keyser Soze]

So new, so fresh!

 

[PROh1bited]

Red ropes!!

And the commentary table pulled a Nitro.

 

[Simply Sami]

So Zayne and Owens are still going to feud with each other. So stupid.

Even 3 hours, per week, for the average person, is a pretty big time investment. You realize that, right? Keep in mind this is all year round, not 12 episodes like Game of Thrones, or if you want to keep the sports analogy, 6 months like the football season. Even the spanish soap operas that my mom watches daily eventually end.

You dont have to watch em consecutively and now they are two separate shows that will intersect every now and then so you dont even have to watch both. Not to mention we get nice packages that explain why these people are fighting at the PPVs. If the brand split fails, the reason will not be "its too hard to get in to the continuity" because its even easier to start watching wrestling and keep up thanks to streaming and youtube highlights

Red ring ropes are back!

Just get rid of the wavy wall for a curtain and we are all good

No ringside commentary table is panic inducing! is the ring announcer / ring bell place gone too? RIP broken ring barriers spot!

 

[DMczaf]

Bernie looks like the type of motherfucker who would roll you up to get his heat back...

Nah he's just the old loyal company dude who finally goes into business for himself to retire with the gold

 

[MetatronM]

So new, so fresh!

They didn't bother to get new ring aprons made?

I'm not a fan of the announcement team not at ring side.

They'll probably have them tucked in the corner by ringside like they used to do.

 

[Hidden One]

The ring announcers are back by the ramp again? Noooooooooo

 

[TheFurizzlyBear]

From what I watched, the tv recording of Battleground did not do the croud justice. There was a pop for Mojo and chanting for him along with how loud they were during the whole event. The only things the crowd were not in to was Becky v Natalia and Miz vs Darren and I think that mainly has to do with them being the closest to cooldown matches.

Still waiting for the return of the best natural heel on the roster.

Spoiler

I've realised that I never set an end-date when I made the wager. I guess I'll just have to support him forever.

Looks like it. However that side will be hidden from most camera shots, so they should get away with it

So today is the debut of glorious god demon balor or c-tier jacket stripper balor?

Simon Gotch seems to have a black eye in this picture:

So was he sent home because he started the fight or because Sin Cara beat him up so badly he needed to take some time off?

 

[Jimmy King]

Smackdown wins

 

[BewareTheBatsie]

Demon Balor has always been trash outside of looking good and cool because it does and changes nothing about Finn and it's finally been defeated so it has to go.
