It was right before that.
I'm dealing with Comcast customer support because they added a charge for Ecobilling being removed, even though we've never had Ecobilling. And this $6 charge added $12 to the bill.
It was weird. It seemed he was going to leave to try to fix things with his ex wife but instead of doing that he decided to divorce her. Then showed up back at Raw.
Spook is an old timey racist word for black people. It hasn't been used in decades except by old racists. Most people under 30 have no idea of the past connotations.
Makes Fex saying 2spooky4me make a lot more sense, doesn't it?

Santino because he's Santino. How is this even a question?
Big E. At least Santino had the Honk-a-Tonk meter.
Cena had the worst year of his life.

Big E, without question. Santino actually did something to make you remember he was champ (Honk a Meter). Big E...didn't do shit.
I hate Santino but if you're referring to the heel run, that was one of the best reigns in YEARS.
That polygon headline isn't a big deal. Potentially offensive? I guess but certainly isn't intentional. Especially as it calls back to a William Gibson novel about similar subject matter (spook is a popular term within the intelligence community)
I suppose if you base all definitions for words off urban dictionary, it is.

I love Big E, and the answer is still Big E.
Also, as a Brit, I don't get this outrage. I thought that was a very American term for intelligence types. See also: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spooks

Well, we're there now, even if it's a couple of years late, like all WWE things. He's bigger than The Rock now to wrestling fans who already watch every week.

It's on its last legs, they should just let it die in peace.

I want to like him, but I don't remember a single memorable match or a single memorable segment outside the unintentional humor of him watching TV. I still have hope he will either come out of his shell / the entire creative department of WWE will be fired at once and he can show us that twitter personality.
Yeah, he lost like three matches. Must've been hard.

You know, I get the whole "watching the match in the back" thing. But why are they always standing? ESPECIALLY IN THE LOCKER ROOM. I'd be kickin' back in a chair or something.
That's more of a recent thing. When they did shots like that in the mid-late 90s, guys were almost always chilling out in a chair while watching. I have no idea why they make a point to have people standing staring at TVs now.
I don't even get that. Unless you have been banned from ringside for story reasons, why are you not near the ring watching it live?

Makes no sense. I'd be playing board games, getting a back rub, smoking a jazz cigarette, channel surfing...just anything besides standing there looking like a doofus.

I thought spook referred to undercover officers or something. Never heard it used in a racist way.

I decided to get the full version of The Ashes of Chikara. It's not good but it wasn't horrible. Well, Icarus and Quack acting is horrible but I enjoyed seeing a few loose ends tied up. I wouldn't recommend it unless you like Chikara's storylines. Not quite "A for effort" but I guess it's nice it exists.

Just got behind a car with the WWE logo sticker on their back window. Which one you marks is that?
I'm going to be such a Sami mark once he hits the main roster. Already am.

I first heard it when I saw Back to the Future many a year ago and my mother accidentally called a black girl it who was dressed up as a ghost or something undead or whatever during in a walk though a haunted forest one year when I was a kid. I laughed after she realized it...
Narc? Never heard spook used in that manner.

The funny thing is I remember Big E coming out at least a couple of times to watch a match, but he stood next to the commentators.
One of those times was made funnier when AJ came out later to do the same thing, but she was seated and had a headset so she could talk.
I've heard spook in reference to cops/agents trailing dudes more than in reference to black people, for sure. It really hasn't been used as a racial term since the 60s or maybe even earlier. Sneaky government guys kind of usurped it in the 70s.
Konnor needs to tone up some. He looks doughy more than powerful. He doesn't have to be cut up. He can be a big strong guy with a body type like Bork. But he has love handles and his gut hangs over his tights and his tits jiggle too much.
