probably nothing, he's just salty at TK so it fits his and WWE's agendas.

Lol so he is on WWE TV because he is salty with TK.
Hey Vince I'm pissed at AEW and TK can I have a job?
Brilliant.
And wasn’t it Tony Khan salty at him? Another instance of not being able to handle criticism.
You’ll probably find in most cases, ‘Budget Cuts’ was a polite way of putting it rather than stating they were either not up to it, unable to adapt to the WWE style, couldn’t get in proper shape, or generally just pricks to work with backstage.

it's possibly both ways?
No very much the other way around here. Btw no one handles criticism as poorly as EB.

Imagine Eric Bischoff with a twitter account during the Monday Night Wars.

Yeah millionaires/billionaires do have that issue.
Yes that definitely would have been something. Especially in later 98 when it was really starting to unravel.

Quite confident EB in his heydey would have been much worse and much more often but whatever.

Eric Bischoff would have been wise enough to put the phone down on New Years Eve.

Bischoff’s actions 20 years ago doesn’t excuse the poor actions of a billionaire on NYE.
Believe it was Russo and Ferrara who booked the Oklahoma character. Bischoff was out of the company then.
But yes he regularly pushed the boundaries.

What did TK do on NYE? Are you referring to the Swole tweet?

I'm sure he said Bichoff the only man to ever be competitive with Vince and WWE didn't know what he was taking about.

Rollins vs Reigns for the title to me is a WM match not a Rumble match and the thing that is bugging the hell out of me is Rollins heel work has been extremely good the last 2 years, no need to change it just yet and add to that the fact that KO who turned heel somewhat teaming up with Seth who he had the whole big feud with when the messiah gimmick first kicked off not that long ago really. On top of that KO and Rollins now teaming up with Big E on house shows as seemingly faces against the Bloodline....
Smackdown got a lot right over a good stretch of time, their work around Mania with Bryan, Big E Cesaro, Rollins, Reigns etc was very solid but ever since the draft it has gone up the s**t , has not helped Drew getting injured but they have completely dropped the ball on the work Corbin was doing as the bum version and they had an easy story to work with Sheamus and Cesaro and have completely stuffed that up to to the point of Ricochet involved with Sheamus again ( WM Pre show) this time Holland with Sheamus but Cesaro no where to be seen aside from thrown in a random tag team contender match with Mansoor last week.

Owens should have turned on Rollins the moment he was named as number 1 contender for the Universal Championship. The story was there, how did Rollins weasel into a title match behind Owens back when they were suppose to be new besties etc. They then could have had two simultaneous feuds going as well as establish Rollins as a face more.
I was watching Sheamus this week on SmackDown and he is so underrated. He’s such a good wrestler, all round, inside and outside the ring. I really hope they build him up again for another face run, as just some badass drinking Irishman with the Fight Night gimmick. Could build up a with a heel turn for Holland and get his career off and going. The company is in desperate need of over faces and potential challengers to Reigns.
Agree about the missed trick with Corbin too. I think he’s a phenomenal talent. I’d have loved them to play up the lucky gimmick more. They were at a Casino just 2 weeks ago and no mention of how Corbin turned it all around at the tables etc.
I think I mentioned the other day how the dynamic of the SmackDown roster was so good prior to the draft. I even loved how they were presenting Finn Balor. Raw was in desperate need of a refresh but SmackDown was so far better off originally.

The story of Sheamus and Cesaro was there to , they never finished the best of 7 series and the time as the bar ended due to Sheamus getting injured. They had the brief moment last year at the Rumble but nothing else. There was no explanation as to why Sheamus would all of a sudden be going up against Cesaro.
Could have used Cesaro moment at Mania with Rollins and title shot against Reigns as motivation whilst Sheamus was on the pre show. But nope it was just slapped together on a Smackdown and like we are meant to be invested or care about it.
It was lazy like most of Smackdown has been since the draft.
It’s got the feel that they will unify the titles with Lesner or Roman and end the brand split? Rollins on raw but challenging Reigns, Big E and KO on SD this week.
Best thing that will happen if they end the split.
Haha bit behind, but why in the blue hell is an official weigh in required!?
Presumably there's either a min or max weight cutoff - otherwise, why??
Edit: well Brock at least agrees, despite Graves wanting him to get naked haha

They might end the brand split, however the only reason they are throwing thr wrestlers from show to show is because of the cuts they have made recently.
Its their own doing.
Reigns has literally no one to fued with on smackdown, so they bring across a Raw wrestler. Reigns gets covid, and they have no one to work with lesnar, so they switch him across. Its hard to keep up.
If they end the brand split, you wont see the same wrestlers on raw and smackdown ever week anyway. Maybe a couple of big names, like Lynch and Reigns, will be on most nights, but apart from that i dont like the chances of it going back to the way it was.
