The Bellas vs. Nattie/Paige - There was a whole lot of spot calling. The tag formula did help this a lot. Not the worst divas match I've seen.

Usos vs. Miz/Mizdow (WWE Tag Title) - I thought this was real good too. I liked the mixture of the Miz/Mizdow storyline with the action. I enjoyed this a good bit.

NAO vs. The Ascension - This was fine for a relatively quick win for the Ascension.

New Day vs. Cesaro/Kidd - This was a really fun opener. There were some awkward moments with the ref, but overall this was a really good start.

Don't tell that to old, cranky, and out of touch Jim Cornette, he'll bite your head off for not realizing pro wrestling and sports entertainment are very different things. Imagine if I said that to him at a Dairy Queen drive-in.

I can't think of a single difference between sports entertainment and professional wrestling. I always hate when I read or hear about WWF saying they were the former and WCW was the latter. I know sports entertainment is a buzzword WWF pretty much created, but in my mind there is literally no difference between the two. Everyone knows wrestling is entertainment. In regards to the rest of the article, the journalist's play-by-play was hysterical!

Same here.

I deleted cookies which immediately brought WWE Network back up on Firefox. Then I added adblock. Thanks for the help.

I don't have adblock.

Network related issue question? I can get the Network on Google Chrome, but I use Firefox most of the time and when I bring the page up it's all white. It's just a blank space. Any reasons for this? Any suggestions on how to fix it?

The fans seriously couldn't care less. That was pretty awful.

To be clear, I think a triple threat will suck as a match too. No desire to see it as a match. As an angle with various potential outcomes makes the whole storyline more interesting to me. Although, I hate Rollins.

Cena-Brock-Rollins triple threat at Rumble just announced. More options on how the title picture will play out now.

I started this monster briefly today, but I'll need to go back to it. I'm looking forward to the listen in the next week or so.

For 2015: - Start going to local Indy feds again. Not weekly, but at least once every few months. It's a lot of fun. - Maybe start a blog. This is up in the air, but I'm considering it. - Carve out some time weekly to watch whatever. I'm going to see most Raws, watch all the WWE PPVs, and seek out the top matches from everywhere. I do that every year. This year I want to just be able to make some time for random viewing. Weekly's more realistic than daily. I'm trying to finish school and work towards starting a career and making a living. Daily wrestling viewing is almost impossible these days.

I thought Rock was booked for movies during Mania. Has that changed now?

Yeah, I liked the Cesaro/KIdd tag too. It had some strong double team work and the crowd eventually got into the match. The finish is sick.

Great show guys. I'll make sure to be the first one to say something when Reigns has that 10 minute promo at the Rumble!

My argument isn't really that Heyman himself hurt these guys careers. My argument is that Punk, Ryback, Axel, and Cesaro all came out worse post-Heyman. It's like Heyman was the gateway to bad booking. On Axel, yeah he wasn't over, but he was in mid-card title matches frequently. After he split with Heyman, he went even more south.

Punk? Punk, Ryback, Axel, and Cesaro all suffered after aligning with Heyman.

I would fear for my career if I were Rollins and I was appointed as another "Paul Heyman" guy. Even though I liked the angle tonight, anybody else with Heyman besides Brock has historically never been good.

Al Snow doing goofy European Title gimmick was in 2000. I imagine D-Lo was in 1999. I didn't watch wrestling in 1999. That explains my earlier response. The European title meant nothing though. It never had any value besides being a title.

That does clear things up. I was just confused about who and what defines the term.

That was D-Lo. The Euro title never meant anything. It's been a one match (Owen vs Bulldog in Germany) title. Nah, I'm pretty sure that was Al Snow. He came out to several themed European stereotypes or whatever.

I think what's confusing some people, including me Parv, is what do you define as a lower mid-carder? I have no clue how to define that at all. Give me 10 examples of lower mid-carders in your mind.
