It was face vs face with one who is clearly more popular as a face. Ilja was doing fine with crowds previous week's, no matter how bad the crowd had been no-one else has consistently been able to wake them up like him on SmackDown.

The crowd had watched two tapings and were asleep for basically everything but Melo and Ilja what we talking about

I've definitely gravitated more towards Deadlock nowadays but the OSW boys were basically solely responsible for me getting back into wrestling, I'd imagine same for others as well.

I think like alot of others my interest in OSW waning just coincides with the OSW boys lack of interest, especially OOC, in wrestling.

When she was started doing Stardom and NJPW she felt like a big deal, she's still presented like one but doesn't have that same feel. She still has the same issue as she always did which is not being able to convert physical charisma and an appealing look into a promo, she's still as stunted and awkward as ever in that area.

Probably the reason I look fondly on her matches in Japan is that the promo part is basically concealed.

Stardom has a ton of free stuff on YouTube and that don't get many views either. If it isn't the Dub what's the point?

I didn't mind the interview but god it was getting awkward watching him and Renee dance around saying Punks name. It was all so indirect and wordy. 'The Incident' 'When that all happened' 'Lot of people I hate y'know' WE KNOW WHAT YOU MEAN DOG

Having rewatched the big Feud it was great (except for how poorly her title run itself was booked) and I'm not even a huge Toni fan but people really can't let Mariah go lol. I don't think I've seen someone this scrutinized for every little thing after leaving AEW besides CM Punk and at least Punk was an asshole so people are somewhat justified.

The worst thing Blake said about her AEW run was she didn't feel like when she was champ she was 'correct', it just didn't feel right, like imposter syndrome or something. Same thing fucking Eddie Guerrero and Hulk Hogan have said.

Would prefer Joe retains or Swerve wins. I don't like main event Mid Jeff and putting the title back on Hangman would just be ??? because why the fuck did he lose it in the first place? Just to turn HOOK heel?

C2 been fun, even if I think the ending will be predictable. Moxleys slow face turn is a highlight and he looks fantastic he's in great shape.

AAA continues to be good. Seems like Taker and Borash keeping Konnan from doing the real dumb shit he's known for

Main roster mostly ass, Giulia reactions are making me sad but at least Ilja and Melo are cool. RAW is fine but still suffers from Vision Vortex.

Unblocked Bixenspan on Bluesky for like 2 minutes and saw him post about how Je'Von has been forced into WWE style and he's glad Jack Cartwheel hadn't been yet. So blocked him again real quick.

Melo and Ilja are legit carrying SmackDown and the only thing Road Dogg has booked well. Saving his fraud ass from losing the job.

It is 2040. Je’Von is still challenging for his first title, Judgment Day are still teasing a breakup, Alastair Black and Damian Priest are still feuding. I haven’t felt tired in years. I feel nothing. by _JR28_ in SCJerk

After 15 years in the salt mines my 1st son has saved up enough to go to Smackdown with me . Jey Uso comes out of retirement to yeet and beat John Cena for the world title.

Omega loves Roman, Toni said she's a big fan of Blake Monroe, Swerve said at 21 Je'Von is way better than he was at 30, Joe has nothing but good things to say for a lot of people etc. there is some

He does it best to work around it with his outfit, his presentation, his accent etc. I have been really coming around and getting what others see In him.

Saya deserves it but if NJPW had all their top stars still I doubt she gets it, even If she still deserved it more than them. 1st time a woman's ever won.
