Normally I don't take it this way but tonight I felt kind of ashamed of myself as a fan to even have watched it. Yeah, it wasn't Katie
Vick night or anything abysmal like that. But it was just such blah, like they'd just given up even trying to put something interesting
together. As has been said elsewhere we're just rewarding them for mediocrity when we tune in and they give us something as irrelevant as
tonight's show. It makes me feel bad for even participating, with the only real comfort being that I didn't spend $14.99 (canuck price)
for the Network or, even worse, was one of those poor saps there live who spent $300 or 400 (or whatever) for a ringside seat.
You know, everyone says it's not supposed to make sense, like that's the whole point, dude. And I'm just saying, you know,
that's like an excuse for lazy storytelling. Just don't sell me shite and tell me it's gold, all right? I might be stoned, but
I'm not high. You know what I mean?

What the fuck is this "next week Reigns is announcing his plans for Summer Slam" shit?
I know I am breaking the UNWRITTENZ BOOARD RULEZZZZ ABOUT NEWZZ AND RUMORZSSS but something something Cena coming back as a free agent and appearing
on both brands (because that's the solution to rating declines is all Cenaz all the timez) and having he and Reigns fight at Summer Slam.

My wife notes that Ambrose is starting to look like 'the reprobate son of Ernest T. Bass'.
Checks out.
Yeah, not a great night. I'm still loving the Joe/Brock stuff and the tag match was fine except for the cop out ending, but beyond that - nope.
Enzo and Cass I don't give a shit about. Bray Wyatt, whom I used to love, has become such a self-parody that he does a promo backstage, gets an
entrance, cuts ANOTHER promo, then, when confronted with a fight, teleports to the back to cut YET ANOTHER PROMO. Yikes.

I kind of liked Bray's Teleport Festival, but in the same way that I liked the Broken Hardyz. I think.
Would it help more if we all pretend that the soul of the Undertaker now resides in Bray Wyatt, but nobody knows it yet? They turn out to be
different faces of the same Timeless Natural Force... Variations on Death, or Jenny Sparks/Jenny Quantum for those of you who've read those
comic book things. I mean, WWE doesn't actually have to make it official, but it might improve head-canon? No, not that kind
of head-cannon.

That's a nice timely reference there... a tertiary player from the Andy Griffith Show. Is your wife 75 years old?
Of course I immediately knew who that was without having to look it up, so I shouldn't talk. Still, though.
Is everyone mad here?
Of course they are, and you are too... otherwise, you wouldn't have come here.

Well, you're not wrong.
Also, I get the sense that we're going to get a scathing, vaguely sanctioned 'shake things up and create buzz' Punk-like promo soon
from someone in the next few weeks/months given the tepidness and seemingly aimless direction of RAM. Sure, Bloat Soiledpants coming back should help,
but usually the backstage friction that comes from a malaise like this begets people along the lines of a Daniel Bryan or CM Punk. Or at least I hope
it does. Maybe now that we're finally, blissfully Puck-In-Net and Ball-In-Hoop free, business will start to pick up agayn.

I always imagined Janerd looked like Steve-O from Jackass. Looks like I was pretty close.
And yes ... I do resemble the guy from Smashmouth crossed with Seth Rogan, in case you were wondering.
Braun Strowman guy.

Speaking of Roman, about the only thing that stuck with me from Raw was the ULTRA-PANDERING (I mean seriously, it couldn't have been more insane
how Roman-positive it was) video package showing him as the conquering hero and all of the WWE Universe cheering and hailing our hero!! I mean, we
all love Roman, you guys! He NEVER gets booed! The WWE Universe is synchronized in their love for all things Roman! 100% cheers in all cities,
thank you very much!
Seriously, are they trolling us at this point? I really think that was done just to further piss off everyone who hates him and/or his never-ending
push.

I tend to agree with/fear this, but
there's always the off-chance that the WWE takes the "silly season" approach and just throws Jinder Mahal into the ... Er, throws Lana into
the... Um. Okay, they -could- do SOMETHING crazy, I just don't know how much crazier it would be than the above examples.

as cliche as it may be. I'm an old-school equal opportunity offender, I just treat everyone like shit.
It's easier that way.

Dear Lord do NOT click on this------> Janerd: Origins
Let's see Charger and his magic PotY Paige innuendo words top a pic of how I came to be.
Agayn, if it hasn't been mentioned enough, RAM outside of Joe/Pauly Dee/Braaaaaaaaaack sucked major eggs this week. Also, I hope Paige returns
using Naomi's blacklight entrance setup because I've never seen a performer explode coming out from gorilla before. I've seen it
happen coming behind gorilla, of course, but that's a story for different thread.

Too bad it isn't semi-Attitude anymore. A mouth like Alexa would have a field day with it. Like "don't get too close to the blacklight
entrances" or "where did you train anyway, Paige? Jasmin St. Clare's academy?".
You know, everyone says it's not supposed to make sense, like that's the whole point, dude. And I'm just saying, you know,
that's like an excuse for lazy storytelling. Just don't sell me shite and tell me it's gold, all right? I might be stoned, but

I 'member when your posts used to give me semis. We are the Attitude Era. Post accordingly.
It'll all be over soon anyway. Post harder, deeper, blacker!!!

Well, my work here is done.
But you didn't do anything except make the world that much more vulgar and worse.
Exactly.
