I'd love this. Get TNA (probably won't happen due to Dixie's ego), ROH, NJPW, CMLL, AAA all under the GFW banner and have the GFW belt be the "world" belt would be awesome.

Yeah, they make less than 10% of WWE's annual turnover. They're a long way from even approaching no.1 worldwide, but the problem is; so is everyone.
How much better does NJ do than WWE when WWE comes to Japan?
I hope Holly is sitting behind his computer desk with his arms wide open saying "How do you like this story now".

Is it bad if I still have hope for New Day Power Rangers?

From some of stuff I read, WWE is still bigger than NJPW in Japan.
The WWE apparently draw very poorly in Japan.

Holy shit, that's awful. Actually, I'm not surprised. Sorry. Poor Holly, though.
Also, Kane would be a better doctor than Amann.
Also, Scott Hall's son is the true bad guy.

New Japan generally kill WWE in Japanese PPV buys (as iPPV is now a much bigger deal over there than traditional PPV, which a relatively few number of people have access to, although it'd be interesting to see Network sub numbers). Also, while WWE have been improving their attendances with each tour over the past few years, they still struggle to fill out the bigger arenas - for instance, New Japan drew 8,500 and 9,100 in Sumo Hall this year, while WWE drew a heavily papered 5,000 and then 11,000 with Hogan introducing KENTA as the draw. Also, they can't really draw outside of Osaka and Tokyo and had to stop running the Tokyo Budokan in 2009 as numbers really dwindled in just 5 years from 14,000 to 4,000, which is a ridiculously low number for a Budokan show.
Cesaro will definitely be gone soon. WWE's roster getting anemic. Just because you didn't like Alberto Del Rio doesn't mean he didn't draw very well with a large demographic of WWE fans who basically have no one right now on the main show. He's gone, and Rey''s going to be gone soon enough. Kalisto has potential to draw, but they'd be starting from square one with him unlike Rey.

So uh. I thought Smackdown was okay this week.
It's a new day brahs.
At least until it isn't.

So much better than everyone on Wrassle gaf claims then?
Nah, pretty much what you'd expect. Vince probably noticed he didn't have any dancing black guys after Brodus left and with R Truth seemingly being nowhere in sight.
Heel, we need you to do another LU review, or an ROH review. I value your opinion. And Bean's.

New Day just don't strike me as 'dance monkey dance' like Brodus did. They're a really solid in ring trio. Hopefully the gimmick will work for three guys who have really been lacking direction for a while. They seem genuinely into it. We'll know in time.

The big ending doesn't look any better with woods lightly pushing from the top rope
No chance. He never had a shot at being pushed to genuine main event status but they could've at least kept the IC belt on him and have him beat upper midcard guys. But that would involve caring about and wanting to elevate the IC title, which is a no no.

Such a perfect critique of WWE fans.
Smackdown SHOULD continue to improve, as dirt sheets are saying they're looking to get it back to having main story lines progress and develop on the show as it once did (not once in a blue moon like now). Probably lining up with the return to Thursdays nights in January.

I'll probably watch that New Japan show. Maybe then?
I'll set it on my phone calendar.

I'm confused as to why WWE has the IC strap on Luke Harper? From a character standpoint he doesn't even seem like he'd give a fuck about a title, it seems wasted on him. They should have just put it on Ziggler.

None! hence!
Daniel Bryan. I assume one of the sleeves would be tight only on one arm on a well built man.
Ambrose's rebound lariat is really bad. Just saw him perform it on Kane on Main Event. Such a slow setup that looks way too obvious.
On a side note, what are the most overused moves in wrestling today? Or the moves that are in vogue.
1. Suicide dive
2. Missile dropkick
3. Flatliner into the turnbuckle

This could apply to,everything wwe does
A shirt with nothing on the back.

Tope suicida and missile dropkick have become really standard moves, almost as much as a superkick. I think the most over-used at the moment are;
1. Backcracker/lungblower/codebreaker
2. Moves on the apron or into the turnbuckle
3. Double stomp variations
