    Netflix needs to fix their issues before RAW comes. So far every live event they had had issues

    Did not have this on my bingo card for War Games. I can see why he joined though since he was a Paul Heyman guy when he first came to WWE.

    I watched a random 2001 episode of raw the other day on Netflix.

    Man, those shows were perfect.

    I watched a couple clips from the attitude era that came up on my facebook feed. well, now my algorithm is going nuts with WWE/WCW stuff from that era. Fuck if I'm not watching every single one, even though I haven't watched rasslin' in two decades. Man, those were the days. The Stone Cold pop when he came out to assist Mankind winning the title from the Rock was next level. 
    Hugh Freaking Dillon is currently out of the office, returning sometime in the fall

    Ha, the same thing happens to me and I watch them all the time.

    I sat and watched an entire episode yesterday as I was home from work, recovering from a Colonoscopy...  The entire episode was such a nice, neat, exciting package.  They start off with the 'main' story with the McMahons, Stone Cold, Rock, Angle, HHH, etc.  Then go into the side story stuff... which was also great.  Also built up some goofy backstage stuff with McMahon/Steph/Trish Stratus and also Edge and Christian taunting the Dudley Boyz.  They had a hardcore match with Raven vs Blackman.  Raven won, but then Hardcore Holly came out to try to cash in on the 24/7 thing.  Him and Blackman started fighting and Raven escaped and had a driver ready to get him away from the arena.

    Jim Ross was also top notch along with King.  

    It was 2 hours (netflix its like 1:35) of perfectness.  I wish it was still like that.  Every match and story was interesting on some level.

    Also laughed at Dean Malenko sneaking into the shower to stalk Lita.  Probably would get shut down now but it was funny (and he got pummeled by the Hardy Boys)

    That RAW looked terrible.  They dropped the Cody/Rock angle just like that!? I was considering going to Summerslam next year, but there's no way I can pay for this product.

    Yeah it wasn't the best. Fans seemed pretty dead during some matches and segments also.

    I think he was also promoting his beer called "Real American Beer" or something like that.

    Royal Rumble has been not too bad so far. Women's Royal Rumble was pretty good. Only thing that sucked was the #30 entrant, Nikki Bella. Should have had Becky Lynch, Jade Cargil or AJ Lee (there was a rumor she could have been in it. Alexa Bliss got a huge pop.

    Men's RR should be decent. Guessing CM Punk wins but could be just about anyone. Also curious if there a re any surprise entrants.

    Well doubt anyone had Jey Uso winning it. That was quite the shock.

    I watched the rumble itself.  It was mildly entertaining.  Better than the past 2 that I watched IMO...

    But man, so many of these "star" wrestlers seem so miscellaneous and look the same.  It is hard for a "casual" fan to know the difference between any of them.  
    Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins, Sami Zayn, Drew McIntyre, LA Knight, Damien Priest, AJ Styles, Finn Balor, Uso, etc

    They all seem like pieces of the same guy.  Its hard to even differentiate between one or the other at times.  They are all pretty... boring.

    I really miss the days that each wrestler had their own look, gimmick, and the royal rumble was super fun putting them on display and getting them to play off each other in the ring at the same time.  Logan Paul is the best thing going and was the most fun part. 

    Cena looked super slow and I knew there was no way they can have that headline Wrestlemania.


    I do like the fact that they featured a surprise winner.

    He came in and did some cool acrobatic stuff.  Then he did the move where he jumped to the table and hung out for awhile getting humungous heat from the crowd.  Then snuck his way back in.  It was different and interesting, eliciting crowd reaction as opposed to all the miscellaneous that was hanging out in the ring.

    My kid was watching with me.  He used to love Prime and hates it, and doesnt like Logan Paul.  He was flipping out that he was "cheating".  It was great.
