If he's been written off for this long due to an illness that sounds like it could be potentially serious. I had thought it was just an injury angle to keep him off TV.

What does WWE do as far as time off for the death of a family member? Anybody have any idea? My employer (as well as my wifes) only give 3 days.



Term of contract for breach seems fair.

No, I mean because his brother was sick and it looked bad, so they probably wrote him out knowing Roman would want to be there for him and for bereavement.

So, Roman is apparently using his own brothers death in this PPV storyline. Great guy that Roman. And don't fucking DARE say that it's the company not him. I guaranfuckingtee you if my brother dying was ever used as a storyline point for sympathy I would flat out tell them no, and if they kept pushing it would threaten to go to the media, see how the sponsors like that.


Also, this does prove my point...he skipped last night solely because he didn't want to be shown on TV getting booed immediately after his brother died....

Cause that's it. There is no coming back from that as a face. If you are so fucking hated they will boo you after a legit death of your legit brother. You're through.

"Shinsuke Nakamura's promotion to the main roster is apparently already paying dividends for the WWE. Coinciding with the release of his newest t-shirt, Nakamura recently took part in his first Smackdown live house show and his merchandise sold out almost immediately. Furthermore, Nakamura's merchandize has been the top seller at the last two Smackdown live television tapings, more than doubling that of A.J. Styles. This is coming off of his 1-year run in NXT where he was the top merchandise seller for the majority of his run. In 2016, Nakamura ranked higher than any other wrestler on Pro Wrestling Tees' best seller list."

Yoooooo, Nakamura hype.

So I had a dream that I was in some random apartment, and Wade Barrett came in, and apparently we were some sort of casual acquaintances, and while talking to him I decided I needed to immediately get into this topic and brag about being in the same home as Wade Barrett.

He then pulls out a GameCube that looked weird with the intention of playing Project:M (the Brawl mod to make it Melee/suck more) which isn't even possible on a GameCube, but then my sister, grandfather, father, and I think someone else all came in with controllers, ready to go (my grandpa had a 64 controller for some reason).

That's where I lost the dream, but since it literally involved this topic and the most agregiously misused talent of the last 10 years, I had to share.

Brian and Dave are having a fit over Kalisto beating Strowman. They say it's a nothing match and Kalisto looks awful, but if Kalisto didn't go out there fighting and doing everything to somehow pulling off a win everyone thought he wouldn't get, he would have looked horrible. Sure, he got destroyed after, but he got destroyed by a monster furious heel who was pissed he lost.

Because they usually want the "Winners are winners, losers are geeks, and 50/50 booking (be it back and forth wins or this "loss ->" beatdown does nothing for both."

I get their reasoning. It's not like Kalisto has any value outside of the Cruiserweight division anyway. He won't by winning. He won't by losing, and their reasoning was, "Why bother?"

Why have Braun throw him into a dumpster if he's someone you want to get over?

Does the fact that he did it to Kalisto mean significantly more than if he did it to Random Backstage Male Human?

I'm speaking that if you were dumb and decided to throw Kalisto, a guy they presumably don't want dead and buried forever, being thrown into a dumpster backstage, him pulling off a lucky win with grit and determination and not backing down from this monster of a man is a good way to make him look credible still even if he gets destroyed after.

Obviously, don't throw Kalisto into a dumpster in the first place. But Kalisto needed something after this. But WWE is famous for booking themselves into a corner. Just look at that RAW PPV where they had Bayley randomly beat Charlotte's PPV streak for no reason and Braun vs Roman to break Braun's win streak for no reason.
