Oh look, Nia just injured her 5th wrestler in a year. Let's keep pushing her even though we fired Mabel and Ken Kennedy when they only injured 2 wrestlers. Because The Rock might come back for 5 minutes some day and cut a wacky promo about New Day pancakes making them poop big turds and then they'll make a Rock shirt that says "HOW BIG R UR TURDS?" in big letters or something. lol nepotism.

Explanation for the recent Carmella push: apparently Cena has been dating her since leaving Nikki. Get ready for Total 'Mella next season.

Double NS, guess Sin/AJ is gonna keep rolon for a while, amusing to see the no DQ match end in with them not making it up at the 10 count as I woulda thought givin the 'no DQ anything goes get this shit sorted' nature the match was meant to have that they'd relax the 10 count rule but I guess not.
Braun Strowman & Bobby Lashley/Kevin Owens & Sami Zayn jad its moments, mostly when Lashley & Strowman were just passing Zane & Owens round for a whupping as they tried to run away, well it made me laugh especially when they turned on each other & chucked each other in for a kicking
Miz/Rolins was pretty goot fun to watch, not sprectular or anything but pretty entertaining
The rest seemed mostly rather average for the WWE's output these days

If she hurts Ronda they're not going to know what to do. Be nice to Rock's cousin or their hoped next big star. Very dumb to risk it.

Now John Cena still wants to marry Nikki
https://www.dailystar.co.uk/news/latest ... t-break-up

Story is Nikki was the one who caused the break up. Seems all just PR for Total Bella's, probably getting married on the season finale.

Yeah when somebody who knew them told Daily Mail it was "a heel turn" you knew it was a work.

Yea just hilarious to think about it, two wrestlers working the mainstream British press. Should have said Cena was cheating with Kay Fabe :rofl2:

If only they could do that for a feud that could draw a lot of money. Like convince the press Brock and Roman really hate each other and it might turn into a shoot.

One person close to the situation said that when WWE announced the suspension, they had already decided to let him go. The key reason was that in a meeting with him when the news broke, he admitted being aware of the Phoenix police investigation and had never told the company, which is something they strongly frown on. The belief internally is that they never would have featured him so prominently, kept the cruiserweight title on him, and continued to build 205 Live around him if they had known he was the subject of an ongoing police investigation.
But let's enjoy it one last time

Raw is staying on the USA Network. NBC won't be renewing Smackdown. Fox might pick it up.

That's surprising since Raw is their crown jewel, so I'd have assumed they'd want to use it when they go shopping for deals. But they are getting 3 times the amount of the current deal ($120 million, so now $360 million), so I guess that's good enough for them.

Hulk has made another half hearted attempt at apologising.

https://www.bleedingcool.com/2018/05/15 ... ken-words/
To those few fans who feel (hurt), I’m forever sorry, and I’ll do whatever I can to make them feel comfortable with me.”
It was certainly more than a few fans he offended, plus if he's really sorry he needs to apologise in a way where he realises the impact of his comments.

-- Variety is reporting that should Smackdown go on the open market (as The Hollywood Reporter has claimed is the plan), the frontrunners to acquire the broadcast rights to the series are FOX, Amazon and Facebook.

Shortly atfter The Hollywood Reporter account was published, WWE issued a "no comment" to PWInsider.com when we asked about the reported plans for NBC Universal to retain Raw (paying, according to THR, three times the current rate for it) while allowing Smackdown to go out on the open market to the highest bidder.
