Asuka retired from NXT and I guess they might have a tournament to determine the new champion.

Which Asuka should win even if she's not entered.

Even though shes a shitty person Sexy Star is a really good wrestler

Never understood why people hate on her ring work. Although I've only seen her in LU season 1

Played a shit ton of Destiny 2 today. Game is good friends.

Yeah I'm really enjoying it. I also just got Voidwalker back for my warlock so we're good to go

Don't know if you mess with the Crucible at all but I'm loving it. For whatever reason it feels way better/more effective to use your current weapons than having a "go-to" for PvP. My biggest complaint about Destiny 1 is I never really liked how majority of the primaries felt for multiplayer, but they all feel good here. Auto rifles especially (which were completely worthless for most of D1 when I played) work well. No bad maps yet either, in my limited experience....

The story missions feel like a real game, it's weird

Whole package is fantastic. It absolutely feels like what D1 should have been. Played a bit of Crucible and enjoyed it. Spent most of my time doing Adventures and some main story stuff. My character is at level 13 now.

We'll have to jump in a game together tomorrow. When are you gonna be on you think?

Probably between lunchtime and early afternoon (and then later at night)

I would've today but I've actually felt an obligation to play through the story first, haha. Whereas in the first game I never played past like...the moon until it was needed for endgame/DLC stuff.

As you said, it's totally what the first should've been. It's funny because if it was, I think people would be way stoked on it. But now this comes out and everyone's like "yeah but it's just the same thing" because it's the same core idea just executed waaaaay better

Watching NXT.

Man, even a feud like Itami and Ohno is a better example of long-term booking than pretty much anything the main roster has done in forever.

They started setting up this match 4 months ago.

Because they actually follow wrestling booking 101. Unlike on the main roster, where Vince has fully convinced himself he doesn't produce wrestling anymore so he can just make choices at random, at any time, for literally no reason.

I didn't pay a whole lot of attention to her when she was in TNA, but Thea Trinidad seems like she's pretty good on the mic. In this role, at least.

Only with firestick.

I even have an android tv and they have nothing for me.
I usually cast it from my pc or whatever to my tv since it has googlecast.
Only other chance would be maybe if you have a browser.

Rhea Ripley has such an amazing look. At 20 she has all the time in the world to become a great wrestler to match.

Shayna Bazler is pretty boring to me, no charisma.

Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"
Just finished the semi-finals and I dunno, Shayna Baszler v. Kairi Sane seems like the kind of match that exposes how ridiculous it is to put shoot fighters in the ring with wrestlers who don't have that kind of background. I mean, sure back in the day it worked okay, especially when kayfabe was a thing you needed everyone to be able to protect themselves from some knob from a backwater territory trying to shoot on them.

Those early rounds were weird to watch. Like Toni Storm (or Kairi, or whoever that's popular) comes out for a match and they get real excited for her entrance, and the match is so quiet you can hear a pin drop other than a few seconds after each spot. (Also, I'm pretty sure "rock chick" is a gimmick that will very get over for Toni Storm.)

That is how I feel about the angle they are going for kinda.

Everyone knows wrestling is fake. Booking wrestlers against shoot fighters has a history of being awful.

New Japan's about to start, not the most exciting card today but the main event LIJ vs CHAOS elimination match should be fun. Haku's youngest son debuts as well, Leo Tonga, he's teaming with his brothers. Sons of Haku!

WWE wants that main stream attention that Vince is always horny for, I bet Vince is dreaming of Ronda bringing attention to the company like Tyson did... LOL.

I called the Hulk Hogan hotline a few times... Yeah, I got in a lot of trouble.


Never won the stupid game they had on it, don't think I even figured it out, I was like ten.

You can sideload the FireTV app onto Android TV. You need to "buy" it from the Amazon app store

Both cards look kind of eh. More interested in tonight's final tag match than anything else.

I think it's more she can compete in a sport where she's not going to be hurt and she can also get jobs for her three friends.

The WWE will always be interested in names and celebrities. It's a cornerstone of the McMahon plan since the son took over.
