Why can't WWE play Raw and Smackdown on the Network the next day but watered down versions show up on Hulu? NBC Universal, which pays WWE for both shows, is a part own in Hulu so it’s to their advantage to put the shows on there. They don’t have that kind of interest in the WWE Network so they make them wait a month. Vince McMahon had said that immediate Network replays would be part of their new TV deal but they couldn’t get NBCU to agree. Also, remember you can get replays of both shows on Saturday night’s on the Universal HD channel.

From like a regular happy guy to an obnoxious happy guy. What is the proper next step in evolving Bo Dallas?

I think the next step is to show he can actually wins some matches and be taken seriously. If it’s me, I have him start showing a mean side when he cheats to win, then no-sell what he did after the match. It doesn’t seem like they are looking to really push him though.

I know this would be a waste but from a logic standpoint wouldn't the ultimate heel tactic be for Seth Rollins to cash in his briefcase when Brock is not there thus win the title by forfeit. I know it is a terrible booking idea but logically that is a heel move to make.

Yep, that would be terrible. To me, a back door win doesn’t help Seth as much as actually beating Brock. It also kills the goodwill that Brock got in beating The Undertaker and destroying John Cena. I think it would be a mistake.

So is the WWE Network at the point where they need no 6 month commitment yet? I don't have 60 bucks laying around all the time but $10 a month isn't so bad

Then it wouldn’t matter. You didn’t pay the 60 dollars up front. You paid it ten dollars a month back when they had that requirement.

What exactly was a Shah?

It was the guy who ruled Iran for years.
