a porn website once sent Vince a fruit basket as thanks for the time WWE accidentally gave free exposure to their company by naming the group of Becky Lynch, Charlotte, and Paige as the "Submission Sorority" during the early days of the Women's Revolution storyline.

Boogeyman had black face paint, although I think he is African American. Umaga was probably 30% black face paint, and portrayed a savage. Is that alright though since he is a minority? Sting after 1996 no longer exists, and maybe that is why we haven't seen Demon Balor in 2 years? Lastly, what about that whole time Undertaker had that little black tear on his face. It wasn't a real tattoo, does that half of a percent result in removal? |

Yeah
Corey Graves headed back to RAW. Team will be Adnan-Graves-Saxton starting on Monday. Tom Phillips not expected to call WM either due to Covid interaction. |

Rather have Samoa Joe stay on commentary than Graves be his replacement, especially if this leads to him eventually going back to his old routine of being very annoying and obnoxious on commentary.
At least on Smackdown, he was kept in check by Cole and didn't have a third person around to be the target of his insults and nagging. |

I wish they had a live audience tonight. I'm on a Mania high, I'd like to watch but I don't think I could make it through 3 hours of WWE Battleground. Is that what they call it? I can't do it. If they have people live for NXT why won't the put some fans in for Raw and Smackdown or PPV's?

Why do backstage 'my guest at this time' interviewers just stare at wrestlers walking away at the end of interviews...why don't they just say 'back to you'
Has to be some weird Vince thing |

I am guessing Bray's new thing is his previous gimmick (Fiend) was the Hurt so his new gimmick (Televangelist) will be the Heal

Anyone know if Peacock will update the way WWE events and programs are listed in the future? It's unbearable.

Supposedly not until at least August by which point they should have all of the Network stuff loaded and will then re-organize a bunch of it.

Odds of Mania week being a super spreader event for the coronavirus just rose since one person already confirmed they tested positive for it and had attended several WWE and indie shows.
If I had to guess, this person likely caught it at one of GCW's shows since it seems GCW was irresponsible again with their handling of COVID precautions during their Collective shows based on stuff going around online from people who were there. |

I know what you mean.
Was also odd to see a high profile name like Jon Moxley show up at the end to do a spot with Nick Cage. Seemed unnecessary. |

RAW comes across as a weekly obligation rather than coherent storytelling.

I haven't watched this week's episode yet, but I agree with that redditor. RAW has been shit lately.

Yeah Smackdown has been a much better show than RAW at least since last year's SummerSlam.
Been speculated for a while that the reason why there is such a big gap in quality between the two shows is due to Vince fearing upsetting FOX way more than USA Network. Without FOX, WWE might not have been able to get the multi-billion deal they have from their current tv contracts and prior to them selling off their FOX Studios, FOX was notorious for being very trigger happy when it came to cancelling shows that didn't meet their expectations. That was also the reason why Vince freaked out over the idea of WWE not being able to produce new weekly shows early into the pandemic since he thought that would give FOX an excuse to rip up the contract. |

So 3 out of the 4 wrestling shows he watches keeps him interested in wrestling? What a solid take, thanks for sharing Slik. How else could we have possibly known some guy from Reddit likes NXT, AEW, and Smackdown enough to keep watching wrestling even though he doesn't like Raw

Think they still do but instead of separate creative teams, they merged them back together with Bruce Prichard in charge.
Around the time Paul Heyman got removed as RAW Executive Director is when they merged back together. |

No more Charlotte stinking up the joint on RAW for the foreseeable future?

According to the Tampa Sports Authority, the real amount of tickets WWE sold for WrestleMania 37 was around 11k lower than what they announced and the actual attendance for both nights was around 14k less.
