I'm still gobsmacked that I am not getting the WWE Network for Summerslam and have no real temptation to when it has Daniel Bryan vs Miz.

I was so hyped for that match potentially happening someday a year and a half ago. I'm the Miz shill here (or at worst the third biggest)

It has to do with the manner in which Bryan came back fighting a bunch of jobbers and the feuds just randomly got thrown together because of what month it happened to be

It's partially that and partially because Miz has hit critical blowhard status I think. I tend to skip Miz TV too these days. He just doesn't feel like a relevant part of the show.

Poor build certainly didn't help though

Something I dont get

I see a lot of people crapping on the end of Gargano vs Ciampa because it made Johnny look stupid

I really vehemently cant understand that take unless youre just not invested in their story at all

This wasnt like Dean Ambrose having a TV blow up in his face

My issue is he did this last time where he couldn't quiet his dark side and it cost him, and then he switched to just getting the title away from ciampa and he had that in his hands but he let rage blind him again

Booker actually made an insightful point! He blamed JBL for creating the version of Miz that hazed Daniel Bryan in 2010 by hazing Miz when Miz got started

I keep hearing the the end of a Lesnar Roman hasnt been decided and was dependent on the meeting Brock had with Vince earlier today.

What do they do with Roman if he doesnt win? He pretty much has to win this one since he lost the first two, doesnt he?

Fuck, it goes that late? I was thinking it would go until like midnight eastern, so 11 my time. I cant do midnight (central) and then get up for work at 5.

Maybe thats the plan. Have Roman win so late at night where the crowd is too tired to boo.

I think that if Brock does resign or something and wins tonight, there will be some point in the match where Roman would have won and the red was out, or Heyman interferes and prevents him from winning. Basically there has to be something to make it so Roman ended up getting screwed again.

Im torn between what I think the match of the night will be, AJ/Joe or Seth/Ziggler

Brock had a closed door meeting with Vince today, I keep reading that if hes going to do both WWE and UFC (assuming Vince and Dana allow that), hell likely end up winning tonight.

I cant see that happening though. Theyve invested too much in Roman to have him fail again. I would prefer that Brock wins and loses via cash in after or tomorrow on Raw (hes apparently scheduled), but at this point it seems like Roman absolutely has to be the guy to beat Brock. They wont let anybody else have that honor.

I feel like the minute you associate UFC and WWE as directly as that you undermine UFC's status as a legit competition somehow

I know there's been crossovers before but Owens working a scripted angle in front of a UFC crowd? Am I missing some famous example of similar happening?

Just the Ali/Inoki stuff where both tried to blur the lines between wrestling and legitimate sport but that was the 70s.
