May 26, 20214 yr comment_5953365 Didn't someone in AEW do a promo about how calling someone a "hell of a hand" is a backhanded compliment basically calling someone technically good but not a draw?
May 26, 20214 yr comment_5953368 Oh, I have no doubt Jim knew what he was saying & doing when he dropped that little nugget.

Yes, Shawn Spears after Cody called him more of less a really good hand, which jumpstarted the heel turn and the subsequent chair shot angle.
May 26, 20214 yr comment_5953370 It's not like AEW is hurting for announcers like WWE is. Kinda odd how they keep sticking with him despite a large segment of the roster getting annoyed by his antics to the point they don't even care if they make it public.
May 26, 20214 yr comment_5953371 So as a Steeler fan, I remember back to when Jerome Bettis was the featured back for the team. Toward the end of his career it started to become apparent he wasn't an every down back anymore, but they made him the short yardage guy when they needed a first down or were close to the goal line. It prolonged his career and let him play to his strengths (being a squat bowling ball who was hard to tackle) and still play a beneficial role to the team. It was a large part of why they won the Super Bowl that year, it allowed him to retire on top to close out a HOF career, and he's still a beloved figure in Pittsburgh to this day. JR's a big Steeler fan too from his beloved late wife being from here. I bet he remembers that as well.
May 28, 20214 yr Author comment_5953544 NICK KHAN BROKERING A WORKING RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN NJPW AND WWE TRULY THE GOAT
May 28, 20214 yr comment_5953594 I see people talking more about Nick Khan more than any wwe wrestler or storyline at the moment. He seems to be the most over person in the company right now with wwe diehards. i mean I just saw a report that he bought a mansion recently. This was big news I guess
May 28, 20214 yr comment_5953613 I wonder if Vince will allow a non-McMahon to succeed him when he passes away. I don't just mean being in charge of the business side, but actually succeed him in all capacities

He put all that work in to replace Shane as Vince's #1 son, got his own vanity promotion, placed himself to just slide into the big chair when the time comes.....then Big Daddy Nick comes in and makes more things happen in a year than he's done in 20.

Legit question as I'm not that aware as to when Nick Khan took over. What has he been able to accomplish to get this much attention? The Peacock deal I know, but what else?
May 29, 20214 yr comment_5953668 He's also been rearranging the management and backstage staff and getting his people in. He was WWE's agent when they got that massive Fox deal. He's also been taking calls during conferences and coming across really well. He looks and sounds like he knows what he is doing. The only question is how long he will have patience for the crazy world of wrestling
May 29, 20214 yr comment_5953670 Yeah he's basically the guy who got them the Fox deal and the Peacock deal. Each one legit worth a billion. He's leaps and bounds the best business guy WWE's had in ages, and it seems like it didn't take long for Vince to give him the keys. Which I don't blame him for doing, all he seems to do is make money. I'd let him do whatever he wants if I was Vince too.
May 29, 20214 yr comment_5953673 Also watching Smackdown, and Roman was fucking fantastic in that segment where he told Jey he didn't want him to go back to being the guy people ask "which one are you?". Who would have thought after everything he went through as a babyface that his career refining character arc would be "Samoan Tony Soprano"?
