Post-Summerslam Raw & Smackdown
That would be great with Rowan doing the work and Heath taking the credit.

The WWE Global Cruiserweight show
HHH pretty much said that while it would make more sense for it to be on Smackdown, it's going to be used to fill time on Raw. I just hope it doesn't get the full "first hour of Nitro" treatment and we get the announcers using the time during their matches to talk about the real stars of the show.

I think Seth just needs to retire the buckle bomb, it's just a bad move to take. Basically any move involving blindly tossing a guy has a bad risk/reward ratio.

I was thinking they should do like when Randy Orton first hurt his shoulder back in the day and have weekly Eva News Network updates.

WWE Network... It's Here
It seems like they have pretty much given up on last gen consoles, since they never really fixed the 360 version either. The PS4/X1 versions seem to work pretty well though.

Current Lucha Talk
Surely he could use the Bret Hart defense and say it was hardway? Anyone sponsoring wrestling should know shit happens sometimes.

Current Lucha Talk
I know anything said by a luchador should be taken with the largest of grains of salt, but Rush said CMLL kept him off the Anniversary show because of the Park brawl. Keeping one of your top acts off the top show over something petty does seem like a pretty CMLL thing to do though,

ROH and CMLL partner up
So CMLL announced they are finally starting to work with ROH, which everyone was waiting for since both of them have talent exchanges with New Japan, This seems like a win-win for both sides. CMLL has like a billion guys they don't ever seem to use much, ROH needs some new faces to spice things up, and CMLL ownership is so hands off they likely won't give a shit if their guys job as long as they get their cut so ROH guys don't have to be cannon fodder like they are to New Japan.

I don't think anyone's overrating Del Rio's ability to point out he could have been used better in WWE, especially right after we saw him being used better in ROH/AAA/LU right before. He's clearly a guy who has some talent but can also mail it in like nobody's business when not motivated, and I'd gather it was hard to find much motivation in recent times.

Dean always sounds like that in interviews, he reminds me a lot of a guy I worked with that everyone was convinced was a stoner but was just unfortunate to be born with a voice that sounded like Shaggy from Scooby-doo. I just remember her excuse was that she was just excited to be talking with Stone Cold, which...yeah. Maybe excited like Jessie Spano from Saved By The Bell.

If ADR leaves, Paige will certainly follow if they stay together. The last thing you want to be is in a relationship with someone who leaves the company on less than the best terms. Especially if he goes somewhere else and has any level of success. They won't be able to help themselves from taking it out on her.

I kind of get them debuting the Demon on Raw, in their minds it's more important to have it happen where more people are watching. I don't see any reason to give away Rusev vs Roman though.

Ageism in pro wrestling
Man, all I gotta say is Johnny's gonna be so pissed when he finds out ya'll got into his stash.

WWE Network... It's Here
On a happier note, Xavier Woods' UpUpDownDown video game show got its own section on the network today. I know he's not everyone's cup of tea here but you gotta respect dude's hustle.

WWE Network... It's Here
I went back and watched Hardcore Heaven 95 since I've been thinking that perhaps I'm too harsh on ECW by saying it doesn't hold up. It was actually a little better than I remembered, but man is it depressing as fuck to watch knowing how most of the people involved turn out.

I wonder if Vince staying home means he has complete trust in Triple H to run things.

Ageism in pro wrestling
The only time people are "ageist" is when the older generation makes an ass of itself on social media. Otherwise, pro wrestling is by far the most accepting to older folks than any other form of sports or entertainment. Like El-P mentioned, sometimes it goes both ways watching everyone in WWE but old pro Jericho get worked into a froth by a fighter doing an 80s Ric Flair cosplay.
