Last one sounds neat and editor's pick is how I view the live stream. The rest should already exist. I wonder how detailed is detailed information. Wonder if there will be some kind of write-in about storylines.

Damn yo. I'm no fan of Zack Ryder, but I can see what Curt Hawkins saying about the locker room after he was buried being very true:
"The worst part of that whole thing is that it really kind of broke the spirit of the locker room. For years, we were told in all these pep talks that there's a brass ring, you've gotta reach for it and it's there for the taking if you work hard enough and get yourself over. And he did it; he defied the odds and actually does it, and all the boys are rooting for him, like 'Oh wow, this is cool as sh*t. This has never been done before.' He got over without the office, without TV time. It was pretty mind-blowing. And then they did just crush it and take it all away from him. To me, I felt the example that set for the rest of the boys was pretty brutal, because then it's like it almost feels hopeless. It's like, you're not going to get pushed unless they pick you to get pushed, and that's kind of it. I thought, above all, that message they sent to the boys was the worst part. They crushed the spirits of a lot of people, like 'Okay, so my hard work here isn't going to pay off, huh?'"

I AM SHOCKED!
Really? Any reports?
Slaughtering them right after seeing Ezekiel Jackson and Snitsky show up? No way

Hey Zack, we heard a rumor on the internet that you're pretty popular on the interent and youtube. So we're going to bury you and push the internet. Internet seems to know what's up. Youtube deals and twitter deals. Might even do an online WWE Network service.
Thanks for your time Zack.

Or ya' know, a worker is working his audience. After all, what better way to get a lot of extra signed 8x10's and photographs at a local indy show than appeal to the smart marks who think Zach Ryder could've been a long-term main eventer than make up some crap about how the backstage area is so depressed that Zach blew his shot.
When in doubt, when a wrestler is talking, assume he's lying.

You must have a pretty low opinion of "smart marks" if you think they'll be buying Curt Hawkins merch out of sympathy for Zack Ryder. Jeez.

Approximately NO ONE is, or has ever suggested that. Stop exaggerating for effect.
Comments on Twitter about ROH chants during Aries' match, the women's match getting immediate boring chants and all the stuff Aiii posted.
MVP sometimes does the crossface, maybe that caused it. (MVP even took it from Benoit- as Benoit was a big influence on MVP when he was in WWE)
Does TNA alter crowd cheers like WWE has done in the past? I can't remember. I doubt there's any other way to control it, it's not like they could kick the crowd out for chanting dumb shit. Kinda wish that trend would stop, though.
On the "this needs to go away from wrestling" list: Trying to get a rub from ECW by trotting out the same four or five guys over and over. We're closing in on 20 years since the last time ECW was relevant and bringing something different to wrestling, and almost 10 years since Vince already stripped the corpse bare. Just let it go.

They have heavily, terribly employed the Smackdown Sound Machine for years. It was really bad during the Hogan/Bischoff era.
I planned out a fairly long ride today. Around 25 miles. I go to my bike only to find my back tire was completely flat. I thought it was strange since I rode 27 miles yesterday and it was just fine. I aired it up and took it on a quick lap around the neighborhood. It seems to be holding air fine. Then a very dense fog settled in as I was about to leave. Now it appears to be raining even though it wasn't supposed to and it doesn't seem like there are rain clouds away.
IS IT POSSIBLE the gods themselves are telling me not to ride today? Unrelated (but maybe related, who knows), a humming bird flew right next to my head for a few seconds, looked at me, then darted off. They're so fucking fast. I could totally see someone thinking it was an alien/ghost/mini ufo if they didn't get a good look at it. It makes no sense how fast they can move, the distance they can cover in a short time, and the weird angles they do it at.
Man, I wish they kept Evan for just one more PPV pay day with how weak the ladder matches are looking.
EDIT: Next NXT event after the Breeze/Neville match should have a MITB match. Zayn, Tyson, Kalisto, Breeze/Neville (depending on champion), Cassidy (as your token big man) and someone else that isn't Mojo.

Post made me look into it more, found everything about it to be glowing, went to buy eShop credit and was told it's been delayed in Europe. Friggin' Nintendo.
Might get it on Steam tonight, but I was looking forward to either portable or off-TV play.

Watched "Silly me and my butterfingers!" again this morning. This day is all right. So fucking funny.
Bo Dallas is proving to be a lot more fun than I ever thought he could be.

Terrifyingly inspirational.
Seriously, this guy really found his stride. Good on him.
(I have watched him getting carted around by campus security way too many times, lol every time)

You keep thinking the segment will overstay its welcome, but then it doesn't and it's STILL fucking funny. I love it Maggle!
Did you watch his segment from Main Event this week? "Women... they are mysterious creatures!"
Killed me.

I hope whoever is writing for Bo (or if it's himself) NEVER stops. It's perfect. He's so goddamn amazing.
I wonder how much of it is Bo himself.
Again, during him being held down in the cart at one point he yells out "I NEED TO PEE" and you can hear all the "guards" corpsing right away.

Because it's awesome! What else is Jeff Hardy there for if not to take awesome bumps?
That's so depressing.

I think that might be because our expectations are so low these days, thanks to being in an era where nobody falls 20 feet or dives onto concrete anymore.
Tell me about it. It's like wrestlers can't even take initiative to get over...but according to the wwe you got to get the support of the fans to get over....yet when you try to do such things beyond the machine they punish you for it.
Such logic.
Bookmarking should've been in at launch.
Watch List should've been added by now.
Recommendations should've been added by now.
Editor's Pick I don't think has a ton of value. It'd probably be flavor of the month shit (i.e. when Batista came back it'd be all Batista shit)
What's Hot? Again, not sure I see huge value in this.
"What Am I watching?" should have been in at launch.
Multiple Camera Angles is a new feature that I could see being added in. But would that only apply to more recent items? Or does WWE have all of the alternate angles for viewing available?
I love his face.

True...its like what more can wrestlers do nowadays that'll blow minds. Hell just a few years back edge was wrapping barbed wire around Tommy Dreamer's throat. It's weird during the whole Hardy/Aries ladder match for the title a while back I found myself bored with the spots.
It could also be the shitty production from TNA which makes spots look meh as all hell.
Rating system would be good. 1 to 5 stars.
Boobs.
