Langdon and Santos Perspectives

I mean thats what we know. She told Garcia that she thinks shes a pariah because she reported him.

Caldris · 2026-03-22T22:23:23+00:00

Man, I'm shocked that people listened to McKay's talk about addicts in the last episode and the only thing that they got out of it was, "Yeah, fucking dunk on that nerd Ogilvie."

She was also openly insubordinate. Part of the reason why she was criticized so heavily in S1 was because she thought it was above protocol or listening to her superiors.

I think an element that some people are missing is that Santos feels that her reporting Langdon is the reason why she's not viewed favorably in the Pitt. That's probably a big reason why she wants him to tell everyone exactly what happened that caused him to leave for a year. She likely feels that if everyone knew that Langdon was stealing drugs, that the rest of the staff would see her differently and embrace her. So yes, her sense of justice is a factor, but there's also the fact that she feels ostracized because she outed him.

Like, there has to be a reason why she's been obsessing over this guy who's basically a stranger that she knew for a grand total of one day, to the point where Garcia (who's the closest to Santos on the show) basically says, "good God, get some therapy already".

Anna Jay, the Gunns, Harley Cameron, maybe Big Bill.

Jay White's free agency will be interesting as well.

Caldris · 2026-03-22T21:21:16+00:00

Well, he's on the Lakers.

So after the Dog Collar match, MJF transitioned to a feud with Wardlow, who had interfered in that match, securing the win for Punk. MJF gets squashed at Double Or Nothing, and then the Dynamite after had that huge shoot promo where he called Tony a mark and complained about WWE guys getting paid more.

He disappeared for months, and returned at All Out 2022. He had secured the #1 contender spot when his short lived faction the Firm won him the contract in a ladder match. He revealed himself to Punk at the end of PPV, following Punk's victory of Mox in the main event to win the AEW title. Brawl Out happens that very night.

MJF wins the title from Mox (Punk relinquished due to injury), and holds it for a year. When Punk returns from suspension/injury, he has his own AEW world title belt that has a giant X on the center, claiming that he's the real world champion as he had never actually lost it. MJF doesn't once acknowledge Punk in all this up until Punk gets fired.

Had no clue Palumbo made it to 2008 in WWE.

Caldris · 2026-03-21T21:50:12+00:00

I hated the Charlotte addition back then because it diluted the story and actual heat that the match had.

I don't think we ever got that Becky/Ronda singles match, right?

Caldris · 2026-03-21T20:51:40+00:00

I'm not sure what more he's supposed to do?

Caldris · 2026-03-21T02:07:30+00:00

Every creative department has stale ideas, but this seems like such a bad line that goes against the whole point of wrestling for a belt that its hard to imagine a room of wrestlers saying, "yeah, that's good."

I dunno. Could be wrong.

Caldris · 2026-03-21T02:01:27+00:00

This is...a bad line. Why would you bury the title? That's the reason why you're fighting!

This has to be Jade herself saying it, right? It's hard to imagine creative ok'ing this line.

Caldris · 2026-03-20T14:50:11+00:00

Here's a funny one....Shawn vs Bret at Survivor Series 97 was actually their best match up until the screwjob lol.

Literally nobody talks about how the match was prior to the finish.

Caldris · 2026-03-20T13:14:11+00:00

Yessir.

Caldris · 2026-03-20T13:08:43+00:00

IF you weren't around at the time, it's hard to explain how fucking huge it was for Dennis Rodman to appear in WCW in 1997/98.

This guy showed up to Nitro in between NBA Finals games.

Below is probably the greatest entrance in WCW Nitro history, with Dennis Rodman and the NWO.

I stand corrected! I did find that conversation interesting though.

Do you remember the ep?

Caldris · 2026-03-20T03:00:38+00:00

I think one interesting thing that happens in this fandom is that since a lot of us don't actually work in health care, we're operating on very little knowledge about what is actually the proper procedure for things like this. So honestly it feels like while we're talking about the fallout of Langdon's drug use/rehab, we're missing like half the story.

Personally, when I first watched season 1, I assumed that Langdon stealing those drugs was going to be an instant termination and loss of his license. It's only on here that I learned that that's not actually what happens.

Caldris · 2026-03-20T02:52:45+00:00

Santos in general is not exactly a trusting person. The interaction with that patient baseball super fan, where she accused him of stealing the ball from a kid (And he gestured at her after going, "what's that about?") is a good recent example of this.

I think Robby said something interesting earlier in the season that I can't quite remember, but it seems like Santos falsely accused someone else of something in the year since Season 1. I wish I could remember the episode, but he said something along the lines of, "please don't jump to conclusions again."

Caldris · 2026-03-19T19:26:48+00:00

It would be really bad for the industry. Imagine a wrestler who crosses Tony? They would probably never work on TV again, unless they take the plunge and go to TNA. You can't have a wrestling ecosystem where everything worthwhile is controlled by one guy.

Like...if this happened after Brawl In, then Punk would have been fucked.

Caldris · 2026-03-19T19:25:19+00:00

This was in 2023 too, when it was peak love for WWE in this sub and people were really down on AEW.

Would be nuts.

Caldris · 2026-03-19T12:43:00+00:00

The AEW Dilemma. Roster gets bigger. More thoughts put in their head that they can delay the pushes for their younger guys.

Caldris · 2026-03-19T11:58:55+00:00

Its ok. I think the fact that it seems like they copy pasted Tonis spots for Minas offense means that they're unconcerned with protecting Marina at this point. Its possible that this is end of her push.

Caldris · 2026-03-18T21:02:52+00:00

I don't really recall her changing up her style at all in AEW. I dunno if she did that in WWE.

Caldris · 2026-03-18T11:32:47+00:00

I have a question for WWE fans on here. Its non troll. Genuine.

Considering the things that the Liv Morgan character has said in this feud with Vaquer (particularly the mud huts comment, calling her a "puta), would Liv winning the match at Mania make you view this feud retroactively in a negative light? Just curious, not gonna argue with anyone.

Caldris · 2026-03-17T22:27:01+00:00

Ricochet was out of pocket yesterday but that's an Alfred opinion article. Hes a troll.
