THE GUY WHO GOT IN PUNK’S WAY, A REALLY BAD IDEA, A REALLY BAD HOT TAKE AND MORE

Is there any way you could put into words your reaction when you heard the fan involved in the CM Punk incident is being ‘gracious’ enough to say he won’t sue him or throw him in jail and just demands a handshake and an apology, without it being R rated? I know I can’t.

I will try.  That guy is a waste of a fertilized egg.  He is the byproduct of what happens when siblings procreate.  He obviously never learned much of anything in the seven years that he spent trying to get out of high school.  He’s just lucky that his interbred parents haven’t kicked him out of the basement yet. 

After watching the RAW After Mania, I was left thinking that creative may have missed a massive opportunity...I believe they could have had Fatu come out and say Roman was the one that attacked him months ago, and also have Jimmy and Jey turn on Roman and join Jacob. Am I alone here thinking this would have been great?

Yes you are probably alone in being the only person who would think that was a great idea, especially right after Jacob went to war with Drew McIntyre over the attack.  The only person I could think of that may like that bad idea is Vince Russo.  Swerves that make no logical sense are his calling card.

Do you think TKO will learn their lesson from this Mania? I'm worried that they won't, because if they did get 50K+ in the building both nights, then with the price increase over last year they'll still have done huge business, even if it isn't a record. I know WWE cares more about the gate than the attendance (the opposite of AEW in that regard) but it still must sting to have to go through so much BS to sell tickets for the biggest show of the year.  

They care about generating revenue first and foremost.  Having 50,000 people paying much more than last year’s crowd did will probably give them a sense of security.  I think that they will really start to learn their lesson if ticket brokers stop buying tickets because they lose money on the transaction, as many did this year.

So I was listening to someone do a review of Wrestlemania 42 and they had a conspiracy theory that Triple H deliberately book night 1 to be bad so that everyone would blame TKO for that and then make night 2 to appear a strong show so that everyone will praise him for it to get back at TKO for basically screwing with his booking. I don't buy this personally because if he was, Surely TKO would just fire him because why employ someone who goes that?

The only people who would think that are people that we talked about in the first question.  That is next level stupid.
