The kids in Japan dig it, brother. AJ is a cool anime character. I never thought about wrestler ages when I was a little mark. Don't think today's kids do either.
Make sure you tell the talent that unless they want to get worked back into a shoot they need to bring back New Jack style scaffold matches
I bet the only place Joe's deal doesn't allow him to work is in TNA....though, doubt that will be a problem.
I wonder if that match is part of the TV tapings or not.
Japan loves that look

Good thing I didn't have to look far for the answer to the classic question, I wont be getting near the TV for a while so its spoiler time.
Fortunately through the power of photography I can feel like I watched Raw by using last nights images in conjunction with my memories of the last few weeks.
Sometimes I think this show is on repeat.
"And then I said BELIEVE THAT and speared him, it was tubular bro"
My man Kane, In 2015!
The huggable Bulgarian Bear we call him...
Unfortunately it seems Lana is in fact a damn Hoeski
Barrett taking throwaway falls already, hey remember when I foolishly had hopes for his King run? heh, heh, yeeeaaaah....
Well at least I like THE BIG GUY as well.
Another fresh matchup from the WWE.
(also 2 Ziggler segments in one night? yeeeesh)
Ryder looks as confused as I currently am that he seems to not only be having a match on Raw, but one that seems to go longer than three minutes.
So basically Ryder needs Cena for any notable TV time. (not pictured, some celeb BS)
Okay so maybe I'll go back and watch this segment.
Now I'm really glad I haven't heard Raw let alone seen it.
The division that sprang up overnight
THE LUNATIC FRINGE MAGGLE DOING LOONY THINGS!
Whew, now I don't need to watch anything, got the full experience right here.

I can't imagine ROH paying for AJ and Joe and not using them on TV.

TNA news:
People in the company pissed that the company's said nothing outside of the generic statement regarding their fates. Dixie in Texas over the weekend, back now and having a meeting this noon, might finally address it internally. Emphasis on might.
Christy Hemme gave her notice, has "awesome" job opportunity not involving wrestling, doesn't need this shit.
Aries' deal is up next month, Slammiversary could be his last show (other Impacts airing after Slammiversary but those are being taped before Slammiversary, so he/Roode could still win the tag belts and lose them all before his deal ends and it'd still be treated like a full month-long reign)
Some in the company saying they heard about Dixie accidentally shittalking the president of DA to the president of DA in email in February, still no public comments expected on it because fucking lol why would you

Didn't Christy get paid like 10 x what the actual wrestlers who did an actual job were doing while she continued to do an awful job announcing?

Okay, that stings to know.
I suppose it would've made sense to expect even less than usual from a KotR than was whipped up over the previous weekend and effectively delivered as a renamed WWE Main Event show.
I think they may just have pulled Barrett's name out of a hat for this accolade.
At least it's hard to bugger up an Elimination Chamber event, well unless it's December to Dismember.
It's called fish or cut bait and let me tell you something brother, if Wade is the fish hooked on the line then they need to cut the bait before this fish gets reeled in cause you can only work a man so long before you need to shoot and right now they've given him his shots and he hasn't shot a work for more than a few months at a time so it's time to get this jabroni his walking papers so he can go and shoot a shoot.

I think she was making somewhere along the lines of 150K+ or so. Free money for her.

Pro Wrestling Tees has a couple of new NJPW shirts that are just copies of trading card designs, but Nakamura
Scott Hall looking good. Back on the wagon?

So, Owens getting the best of Cena two weeks in a row pretty much means he'll lose right? I really doubt WWE will do the right thing when it comes to this.
Best part of Raw was, hands down, the Lana and Rusev segment. Such a good back and forth.
Rest of the show was more of the same.

Depends on if you think the developmental champion should get a win over the face of the company of the last 10 years with a 3 week long feud.
Personally, I don't consider that the right thing. The only thing I'd consider that a right thing is if Cena beats him and doesn't try to keep feuding with him.
Pro Wrestling Rule of Opposite Momentum in full effect.
I personally hope Owens just loses and that's the end of it. The worst case scenario is Owens winning at Elimination Chamber and then getting 3 months of Ls afterwards like what Rusev got.
The only right thing is to have Owens beat Cena clean to get people's hopes up, then have Reigns squash Owens the next night on Raw. The look on ISEC's collective faces will be priceless

Zayn seeing Dr. James Andrews today, rip :[
(For those who don't know, Andrews is seen by all people in sports and specializes in shoulder surgeries for the most part, but when he's seen by baseball players it means their shoulder's fucked and they're done for the year. If he gets surgery in June, that's probably it for him till at least December)

Nobody on that show knew how to play games tho
I do think that a guy that has been on top for 10 years and doesn't lose anything from taking a pin should do it for a dude that would benefit immensely for it, that has a ton of momentum and has the ability to be a top guy for your company in a couple of years.
Owens goes back to NXT for a little while and Cena goes back to his routine. But now when Owens actually debuts he has the big accolade to his name and can keep going full force.
In a scenario where Owns loses then yeah, let it just be EC and be done with it. Since he is NXT champion that will probably be it. Alt ought I don't think losing to Cena is that amazing thing that the WWE likes to say it is.

How unfortunate to reaggravate an injury right after your triumphant, well-executed Raw debut in which you had like a 2.5 star match despite the pain you must have been in. No way to capitalize on the momentum, no real way to keep your heat on the developmental show where you got famous in the first place. Zayn could be a big babyface underdog for them, the Mick Foley to Rollins' Triple H perhaps, but you have to wonder if Vince just sees D.Bry 2.0 and don't wanna risk putting money into someone with so much mileage.
Unfortunately it seems Lana is in fact a damn Hoeski
It actually seems like they are doing a decent job with that. Ziggler and Lana both know the score. She's using him to piss off Rusev and Ziggler is perfectly fine playing that role.
In Vince's mind, someone going more than 2 minutes with Cena means Cena "put that guy over". Cena going into Super Mode and basically no-selling everything in order to get a clean AA win doesn't matter.
Yup, it's one of the booking tropes that annoys me the most currently. The idea that just being on the ring with Cena will elevate you no matter how the match goes.

If I fail to follow through on mine feel free to take it, my mood is ever shifting right now and I was a lot more jolly when I originally planned to subject myself to the human trainwreck that is death match wrasslin.
This makes sense, but let us not forget that Ziggles old t shirt had the slogan of stealing the show and your girlfriend, he may be falling back to his nefarious ways!
And as Fox just pointed out the damn kleptomaniac also swipes clothes.

Sure, I'm in the mood to watch people kill themselves for peanuts
Luke Harper dangerous or Big Show dangerous?
in what sense? I have a hard time hating the fact that they're outside of Vince's control
