Agree to disagree, but dude, that was two years ago. Mox did a great job during that period. But he's still doing the same stuff now. The same can be said for Drew and how he carried the E during the ThunderDome era. But I'm sure most here would agree that he shouldn't be the face of the WWE now because of that.

I mean, I pretty much said “agree to disagree” from the jump.

I have zero issue (as I’ve said repeatedly) with people who don’t “feel” Moxley.

But I will push back on the “he’s overrated” and “dude, that was two years ago” stuff.

Yes, those specific examples I gave happened 2 years ago, but nothing has changed with his drawing power, people wanting to work with him (he was a HUGE reason Forbidden Door just happened), crowd reactions, or promo ability (and now there will be a Mox v Punk feud).

I mean, no disrespect to Drew McIntyre, but he has definitely not stayed remotely close to as hot as Moxley has, and that is with the WWE (at the time) seeming to prefer the crowd control they had during the Thunder Dome era, and Moxley taking 2-3 months off for rehab.

I’m not blaming Drew for that, btw, but Moxley being supremely over was not some 2 years ago thing. It is still going very strong.

Thus match is awesome. Hats off to Drew and KO

Very good match so far.

I prefer HHH WWE to Late Stage Vince WWE and it aint close.

Good match, but had to know it would end in some shenanigans.

This is the kind of instance I don't mind it. Unannounced match where neither guy needed to eat a pin right now. DQ finishes have a place. It's just not 5 of them a week.

Oh, I completely agree. I'm fine with it.

Yeah, this just leaves the door open for more KO/McIntyre stuff. I'm ok with it. Fun match and both brought a lot to the table. Could tell the fans were into it.

 

[Sun Wukong]

The outfit Rollins is wearing is making me irrationally angry. A true heel.

You can tell promos are no longer being micromanaged.

Yeah. It feels so much less scripted now. They actually sound like people.

I can't believe you all are watching WWE when the final episode of Better Call Saul is on.
