Is the empire crumbling before our eyes?
The more time goes by I think the 2013-2016 Authority run did so much long term damage to the product. I can remember it being a constant debate here with some saying it was no big deal but I really think that angle was incredibly damaging also I think Roman feuding with the League of Nations post Vince did damage as well. Everyone saw that group as cannon fodder that were there to simply make Roman look good

As for Piper, I thought the build to Starrcade 96 was fine. Actively good at some points. Everything after is pretty terrible. I can remember the Piper/Flair feud in summer of 97 being really bad. Only to be topped by being even worse two years later in 99.

Wrestling inc reporting Alexa will be taking time off soon. A few months probably. Probably why they shot the angle last night. She's getting married soon as well

WWE Extreme Rules 2021 - Less Extreme, More Rules
What I mean is like how do you draw the line between accepting Hornswoggle going through an invisible wall because it's entertainment/work and then not accepting a smaller wrestler on top because it's unrealistic. How can you believe the former and dismiss the latter. Seems like cognitive dissonance

WWE Extreme Rules 2021 - Less Extreme, More Rules
How do we draw the line though on supernatural stuff happening and "unrealistic" wrestling style? I mean how can one be accepted and the latter abhorred. It's just picking and choosing also two years ago everyone hated the super natural stuff with Fiend and Seth but this is okay because Roman was involved? ( not everyone's take obviously but I've seen some)

On the latest Broken Skulls Seth said he nearly went after Vince backstage after HIAC 2019 because he was so mad at how the match with .the Fiend went off.

I think I read that Cole was offered winning the IC title from Nak or a tv match with Roman to stay. in fact I think it was our very own rovert reporting that

Not that's it's a big deal now but I wonder what the original plan was for E if they hadn't decided on this over the weekend? hadnt they been teasing him v .Roman for months?
