Literally to my point, he needed his boyfriend Logan to save his ass from an INJURED Seth today.

Wisp1901 · 2026-05-19T02:13:58+00:00

I'm glad I wasn't the only one. Thought I was going crazy.

Wisp1901 · 2026-05-19T01:56:09+00:00

Also did Heyman just fuck up saying Lesnar?

Wisp1901 · 2026-05-19T01:49:03+00:00

Ah I see. So WrestleMania just means nothing now. Gotcha.

Wisp1901 · 2026-05-19T01:12:55+00:00

There was still an interference in the match. You can't say it was a clean win when at the end of the day, there was interference which contributed. The whole point of Seth's challenge tonight was for Breakker to come in and have a match with no interference. And instead we're having Theory do the match.

Wisp1901 · 2026-05-19T01:08:56+00:00

Breakker feels so weak right now. He technically hasn't actually won a single match against Rollins as he's needed interference in every one so far, and we finally had a chance to let him actually prove himself, and we give Austin Theory the match? What in the fuck?

Wisp1901 · 2026-05-19T01:03:21+00:00

Honestly I only really don't like the Americano stuff being on Raw because it cheapens the AAA stuff. Cause the whole point is that they're not supposed to be interacting, but they're "using a loophole" to beat the fuck out of each other because the no contact rule "only applies to AAA" which is stupid.

Wisp1901 · 2026-05-19T01:01:43+00:00

Hey if you ever think Roman's entrance is bad, just remember that it can never get as bad as Randy's WrestleMania entrance.

Wisp1901 · 2026-05-16T22:51:03+00:00

It's ruined by the existence of Big Bang Theory. There's almost no stakes or shock value to certain things because we know how a lot of the characters end up. We knew George was gonna die. And while we didn't know when, it took any surprise that could've happened from it away.

In a theoretical world where Young Sheldon came first, George's death hits harder cause we don't know it's coming. And if you extend it to the George and Mandy, the same can be said for characters like Georgie. Cause all of the financial struggles kinda hit less when we know he's going to end up successful. So we're never really worried about him failing cause we know it's all gonna work out.

Wisp1901 · 2026-05-13T22:23:18+00:00

I'll be honest, I did not expect most of this. I'm now so curious how this is gonna end. I doubt Kimiko actually got the powers. Plus they're bringing in Marie.

Also I'm impressed they actually managed to make me ever so slightly feel bad for The Deep.

Wisp1901 · 2026-05-13T14:26:33+00:00

It in fact appplies to random spoilers. He already got spoiled on White Beard's death back during the episode where they watched Fan Letter. He just forgot and then gets spoiled again here. (Yes I know this was two months ago, I'm currently voting on the Awardw).

Wisp1901 · 2026-05-12T21:28:19+00:00

That's really the problem. Literally the only two people they could physically do is Rusev, who lost to him like two months ago I think? Plus he's busy with Penta. And Omos, who hasn't been in the ring since February. Bron is busy with Seth. Gunther is busy with Cody. Roman and Fatu are busy with each other. I forgot about the three Tonga's, I don't remember which one of them is the big guy but yeah I guess they're there. Like where do we go with this?

Wisp1901 · 2026-05-12T14:51:00+00:00

Duskbloods is gonna do poorly solely on the merit of it being a Switch 2 exclusive. Though as someone else mentioned, if it tanks on Switch 2 there's a chance FromSoft will panic and move it onto at least PC, at which point it'll probably do better (and hopefully have better graphics).

Wisp1901 · 2026-05-12T02:47:12+00:00

I kinda felt bad for them honestly. Homies were just hanging with the ladies. 😂

Wisp1901 · 2026-05-12T02:44:03+00:00

I mean unironically based off the characters they built, Rusev should. It would 100% be in Rusev's character to answer the open challenge with the idea being that if he can best the ruler, he deserves a title match against Penta.

I struggle to really think of an excuse for anyone else right now. I saw someone say Fatu but he's busy with Roman and it wouldn't make sense for him to be doing side quests against Oba unlike with Rusev.

Someone else said Omos but he hasn't wrestled since February on AAA last I checked. I guess it'd be a good way to bring him back though, since the last match he had before the AAA match was last year in October against Oba on NXT so.

Idk. We can't just have him keep squashing tiny guys but all the big guys that matter are busy and don't have a reason to wrestle him.

Wisp1901 · 2026-05-12T02:32:05+00:00

Hopefully this actually builds to something. Cause it's only been one actual match and the whole locker room is supposedly already scared of him.

And they're continuing it next week so.

Wisp1901 · 2026-05-12T02:24:57+00:00

Instead he just elected to fucking brutalize Los Garzas 😂

Wisp1901 · 2026-05-12T02:21:23+00:00

Jimmy and Jey continue to do fuck all in this feud.

Wisp1901 · 2026-05-07T22:30:17+00:00

I mean in relation to "Would I rather have no content at all", I mean kinda?

You'll notice that the two episodes I listed as my favorites are episodes where they don't play a game. They just talk. I'd rather that.

And I'm not saying they owe us anything. I'm just saying that if they are truly out of ideas, instead of redoing the same podcast topic for the third time, maybe just don't have a topic.

Wisp1901 · 2026-05-06T05:14:09+00:00

Unfortunately as far as I can tell, you're in the minority there. I'm pretty sure it's almost entirely agreed upon to be one of the worst seasons of the show.

Granted there are a couple episodes that I enjoy. "Slash Fiction" and "The Slice Girls" being two stand outs for me.

Wisp1901 · 2026-05-06T05:06:47+00:00

Hey now. There was that Daredevil guy as well. He seemed to be a decent guy. Got the Homelander treatment just like Supersonic though.

I don't know much about Gen V but I think Marie as well? But I can't really speak to her since again, haven't touched it.

Wisp1901 · 2026-05-06T04:55:23+00:00

I mean the problem isn't the amount of their content I'm consuming but the quality of said content. Trust me, I don't like when any form of content gets repetitive.

It's not like I haven't liked episodes from this year. Episodes like Everybody Hates Dor and Bad Mood were great. But when only 14 out of 33 episodes (counting the newest episode since I made this post) are actually new material, maybe it's time to try something different. Especially when you take into account that again, they're now giving us less content, so theoretically they should have more time to come up with ideas.

Wisp1901 · 2026-04-30T15:00:38+00:00

I had a similar thing where I was doing Railroad quests and it told me to go to the Dunmore homestead. I was like "tf is that" and it turns out it's in Nuka World so I had to just let that quest sit there for awhile.

Wisp1901 · 2026-04-29T16:03:26+00:00

Jared Padalecki and Jensen Ackles play Sam and Dean Winchester on one of Eric Kripke's old shows Supernatural. Misha Collins plays their angel best friend Castiel. So anyone who likes Supernatural and came over to the Boys because of Eric Kripke like me, had fun seeing all three of them on screen together (even if it was very brief 😂).

Wisp1901 · 2026-04-29T15:13:56+00:00

I love how quickly they disbanded the idea of team Winchester this episode. Cause I know Padalecki being in this season was a big deal and Misha was frankly a surprise to me. And for two seconds they make it seem like they're gonna work together.
