Didn't Savage offer to put him over in a program? Missed opportunity.

Would be huge for AEW if they somehow got Rock to show up on Dynamite in the future as part of the promotional stuff for his upcoming Black Adam film. AEW and TNT already worked with Warner Bros and DC last year with the Batman Day stuff. |

Savage had a bad habit as a face, especially as he got older, to pretty much sell ALL match and then just do a comeback. So, Vince wasn't all that into it. |

Apparently Orange County officials tried to shut down WWE's production at the Performance Center multiple times over the past several weeks. WWE pretty much ignored the order each time.
Also being speculated that Linda McMahon gave a bribe in the form of a very large political donation for the Republican party in the state in order to get WWE added to the exemption list. Just soo happened that money was received on the same day as Florida's governor stated WWE (and wrestling) is now considered as "essential business" in the state. |

They will find the money -no doubt.
Given that government officials seem to get away with this type of shit everyday, it wont matter. |

For sure but if WWE thought they'd be able to get away from any real blame, that's already starting to not be the case.
Media has started to put both WWE resuming live events and this money from Linda into the public spotlight. Even ESPN that's been very friendly to Vince and WWE recently went after them for putting talent and staff at risk by resuming live shows. UFC probably very happy since now they are not getting the full brunt of criticisms and negative media attention. |

Seems whatever concerns Vince has with FOX and USA Network in regards to taped vs. live shows issues for contract reasons is something AEW doesn't have to worry about with TNT.
Impact and ROH don't really have to worry about that due to their parent companies owning the networks they air on while MLW seems to be in a similar boat as AEW with BeIN Sports. |

If other sports were running live I could see Fox getting pushy about the contract. But seeing as WWE is the only live sport they have atm, they'll let it slide.
USA won't do anything about this because they need WWE bad. USA has been tanking for awhile now. It's probably already be over for them if they didn't have WWE. They don't want to rock that boat. |

Random Thought: There should be more rasslers who come out to classical music.... Flair and Savage did it great....
Can't think of any others "big ones".... Some smaller ones.... Blueblood Hunter Hearst Helmsley Berlyn |

Y2J Jericho and Business Suit Jericho would be my top 2 picks. After that, leaning a lot towards WCW Jericho over "Le Champion" Jericho for the third pick. |

Was gonna mention how brilliant Mankind's entrance/exit themes were, and in general what a brilliant character Mankind was... maybe he was never my "favourite guy", but I think I can credit him maybe with drawing my eyes back onto the product at least....

Archer making sure AEW was following the government's rule for public gatherings. Sign was shorter than 6 feet from him and one too many people at ringside. |

Apparently WWE is going to be mixing up their taping schedule between live and taped starting tonight and lasting till July 1st.
Tonight's Smackdown and all of next week's shows will be live and then after that they are going to hold multi-taping sessions on certain days of the week to cover them until July 8th. Quote:

Apparently the higher ups didn't bother to inform staff, and likely talent as well, of these tapings changes and most only found out after reading about it online.
