ngl I didn't get the "he's supposed to be like Raven" but now I can see it and it makes Krusty's Nephew even more hilariously lame

Oh god, is that what people are supposed to take from that? I see Raven, I immediately think violent grunge rocker who's one bad coke trip away from pulling a Sid Viscious on a groupie. I see Scapegoat and I think that he needs to stop playing League of Legends and get some sleep so he can be on time for the day shift at Starbucks.
 
Had a blast with NXT tonight. Randy verses Evans was hilarious. Preeeetty sure Evans botched a kick though. It looked painful.

Also Trick called Wes “light skin”. Things are getting edgy. I like it.

Edit: Oh shit there were a couple of botches in the Evans vs Randy match that I missed! Yeesh! Still fun to watch.

He's just a boring champion imo. The 'underdog champion' gimmick works with the right person (i.e. Cody) until it grows stale and that's all he seems to do when he's champion. "Muh family, muh pride, muh underdog story" is the typical go-to storyline and pales in comparison to some fucking smug Austrian brute who demolishes people.

Also, who the fuck is 'Sexyy Red'? And why does WWE insist on feeding its audience every mediocre black rapper they can get their hands on? I get it, they're somewhat famous (at least in the US, I've never fucking heard of most of them), but it's blatant pandering to an audience that will probably stick around for a couple of weeks before they go onto the next trend. It's just reeks of the desperation of the last era.

There's a weird overlap in recent years of WWE fans and guilty white people who feel like they have to pretend to enjoy rap/hip hop/whatever that Mexican version of rap is called despite literally all of it being utter shite.

It's almost as if WWE was so openly racist in the past that they have to pretend that whatever "get dat money and get dem hoes" nonsense that some random hoodrat babbles into a mic over a basic as fuck beat is pure genius.
 
Oh yeah, NXT and AEW went head-to-head last night. I wonder how the viewership for both shows will turn out.

They should just go back to making their own music. The themes to the big 4 PPVs back in the day were great.

When the HIAC was being lowered down slowly during the start of Bad Blood I was thinking it would feel so cool to have the old creepy Armageddon theme playing.

I'm not a fan of these artists and I find contemporary hip hop to be shit, but you're really showing your age if you don't think that this shit isn't popular with the younger demos these days.

Acting like this is a recent thing is hilarious, too, given that WWE's been doing this for decades at this point. Whether it's Limp Bizkit, Kid Rock or Alter Bridge or this spate of garbage 'rap.'

Apparently one of their lowest live attendances as well. This was the go-home show for a PPV that i forgot was even happening despite the fact that i'd consider myself a fan of the promotion.

Everything is so predictable in AEW at the moment so it is hard to give a shit about the product week to week. They use such a narrow group of their huge roster on TV that it's possible to get 100% in a pick-em by just glancing at the match card before every show.

They need a hard reboot. The talent is there but TK doesn't really seem to have any ideas beyond having no-build "bangers for the sickos" every week and who gives a shit about that if you can tell who is going to win when the "dream match" is announced?

???

I had to actually go verify these figures, I thought you hit the 3 instead of 6 on your keyboard. Holy fuck that is terrible. What a gutter tier product.

Am I the only guy that can't stand R-Truth and the New Day? Whenever those niggers appear on TV I change the channel. R-Truth is so fucking cringe I can't stand to watch him.
