I’ve said it before, Dragon Lee is one of the best sellers around right now.

He has the tendency to forget when he’s on a comeback (that’s a standard problem these days though) but he’s great at making his opponent look a killer.
I still haven't quite forgiven him for nearly killing Hiromu.
Ronda Rousey just rocked up in Ring of Honor.
She got all pissy when the casual WWE crowd wouldn't cheer her. Why does she think RoH/AEW is going to be any better?
Becky Lynch rocking up on Smackdown and suddenly making the brand exclusively absolutely pointless one month in. Same old shit
Since when has any sort of brand split ever lasted more than about 5 picoseconds in the WWE?
The only actual brand split was the CM Punk collision era.
Meanwhile in AEW there was an awful botch and the ref actually did their job and protected the wrestler. Miracles happen.

But Jimmy cost Jey the tag titles so he couldn't appear on Smackdown...
Of course it was Roderick Strong landing in his neck.

MJF burying BCG like they’re prime 3MB.
I thought it would be impossible for me to hate a MJF vs. Jay White match, yet here we are.
At least they’re pushing Toni Storm and Julia Hart though, even if the rest of the booking is nothing but self-sabotage.
Announcing the return of a big star after a long time off, instead of just letting them show on the night to a massive pop, is becoming a pet peeve of mine.
Yeah at least have the big return pop on Raw, if people are gonna tune in to watch him wrestle on Saturday (when his music hitting will now not be a surprise) then have it happen there.
Randall to turn heel on Cody.
THE NEXT CHAPTER OF THE STORY.
This was my immediate thought too.
That’s because they’re leaving it to CM Punk.
Gunther is now cutting proper heel promos. He might be the best in the world.
I've not been following a whole lot recently. Why is Sami Zayn in WarGames but Kevin Owens isn't?
Because of the brand split which can UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES BE BREACHED (except when it regularly is.)
Should've been Owens though.
They've split them? It seemed all primed for an Owens heel turn on Sami, which I know has already happened more times than Flair on Sting, but why bother foreshadowing it for months?
It’s meant Nick Aldis is an on screen character though so I’m all for it. I think we’re going to get him versus Owens down this line (though we’ve already technically had that with Shano)
It was to further put a WEDGE between Owns and Jey, which is going to lead to nothing.
Nick Aldis was great on NWA Powerrrrrrr before the pandemic hit and it came back all weird, hopefully they plan for him to be a wrestler for them rather than just a lovely suit.
Blokes that big look stupid in suits but he manages to pull it off somehow.
John Cena is the worst. He looks like a manlet. Gotta be the smallest looking 6ft bloke around
Old footage of Evolution is always great for that, they tried to dress all fancy but Ric Flair was the only one who ever seemed to own clothes that actually fit him.
I swear I've seen Meng in a suit and he carried it well.
Madness. The final 3 matches of Full Gear (Hangman-Swerve, Jericho&Omega-Bucks and MJF-White) were all outstanding.

I can't even be bothered listing why they were all bad (especially the stupid "death match") so we'll just leave it at that.
Did you not even pop for MJFs elbow drop?
I'm a twit
Not really, because every match on the undercard had its own crazy spot so you become numb to these things when it's happening all the time. MJF's elbow could have been a big thing were it the only spot like that on the show but when you've had clowns like Hangman drinking blood 30 minutes earlier, the effect of an elbow drop is somewhat diminished.
They've gone for this over-the-top sports entertainment babyface MJF, which is fine but it's not the best use of him and that style of match needs nowhere near 30 minutes. I was ready to enjoy this match because I like both guys but I found my mind wandering by the halfway point. And the logic that a heel can just beat up a champion to take his belt is absurd, it's never been done before like this for a reason.
It's not real wrestling unless there's a 12 minute headlock spot.
"I didn't like this good thing because lots of the things before it were good too and made this one less good" is such a strange take on anything.
I'm a twit
Didn't think it'd be long before you popped along.
Of course there's no middle ground here. If I don't like crazy spot fests non-stop for four hours then I must want headlocks instead.
Crazy =/= good
No Baz, he needs multiple hours of 12 minute headlocks so that when the good thing happens once you're really invested in it because you've been bored into, ironically, submission before that.
I only saw highlight clips but I could really do without ever seeing someone drinking blood again.
No vampire TV shows or films for Wullie.
Fuego Del Sol crying 'Won't someone think of the children' is all the proof I needed that that was cool.
Or making out you’re injured just to do every spot imaginable and then go back to looking injured again after the match.
MJF trying to emulate his hero Super Cena a bit too much.
AKA the Rollins.
So for the 'find the two Pointless answers to top up the jackpot' bit yesterday Pointless had WWE wrestlers. So for anybody who doesn't know the format for this round it's identify the two pointless ones, there are two correct but not pointless ones and two incorrect answers. They had:
Triple H
Kofi Kingston
Dani Ardor
Kurt Angle
Torrie Wilson
Milo of Croton
Toggle Spoiler
Imagine ten years ago we'd be saying Reigns is the best seller out of the three.
I would've 100% gone with Kofi as the other one, but I suppose a lot of people know him because of the New Day. Still, poor Kurt.So for the 'find the two Pointless answers to top up the jackpot' bit yesterday Pointless had WWE wrestlers.

Yeah I was very confident Kofi would be the other.
Milo of Croton would be a great British wrestling name.

Those feats of strength could be the vignettes WWE film before he debuts.
He'd definitely have the Iron Claw as a finisher.
