Something about comparing network to cable is icky to me. Like comparing cable to premium

Cw is in 98% of all tv owning households where as tnt is in 81% (and shrinking.) NXT could beat them head to on any network dont misunderstand but theyre not apples to apples any more. USA was a solid comparative landscape. I dont think CW is. Would be like comparing RAW on USA to SD! On Fox. If SD! doesnt outperform RAW there's a serious problem.

Network is in more homes than cable, but there are other factors too. It’s probably improper to compare across nights due to different levels of competition.

I didn’t really like Halloween Havoc. It wasn’t horrendous or anything, just not for me. Raw was pretty good in parts. Sign me up for Rey Mysterio vs. Chad Gable. I’m actually getting into Karrion Kross. Dom is fantastic. JD McDonagh is underrated.

Goldberg v DDP is one of the best matches of that era though

The three things I remember about that show are the ending of Goldberg/DDP getting cut from the PPV feed because of overrun, Hogan not being able to get the flash paper lit properly, and for some reason I remember the opening bout was heel Jericho vs heel Raven where Jericho was the champ but Raven came out and said he didn’t want to wrestle that night so I guess he was just going to give up his title shot but then Jericho called him a chicken and then Raven got mad and they ended up having the match which Jericho won.
An odd show for certain. |

Its understandable. Like Supreme mentioned the ppv cut off and they had to give away for free on nitro the next night as an apology

Goldbergs best match though.

It’s a sad day. Baron Corbin will not be getting his WWE contract renewed. It’s a shame. I really turned a corner on him. I hope he sticks with wrestling and goes to TNA or something. I’ll probably check out what does next.
Indi Hartwell and Tegan Nox are also on the chopping board. I’ve never been a fan of either of them, but if they stay in wrestling I hope they find a good place for themselves. |

Decent SmackDown this week. I’m not that excited about anything, but everything is “solid enough.” Lash Legend & Jakara Jackson stand out. Chelsea Green is funny.

The piledriver is appropro.
Jacob Fatu cut a good promo this week. Nothing excites me on SmackDown, but it’s just a well done show. It’s still PrettyCool to see the MCMG in WWE. I wonder if Skippord still watches? |

Is there a good reason Sami is friends with Jimmy and Jey again or no?

I missed Raw this week. Not sure I’m going to go back and check it out. WWE has been solid and all, but it doesn’t feel urgent enough to me.
There really is room for a true wrestling alternative. Especially since an initial lack of sponsors could lead to a snappier show with more kinetic energy. AEW ain’t it. I checked out TNA once or twice, but I dunno. Maybe an alternative only works in theory? If there’s a mass exodus from AEW for whatever reason at some point, Tony has paid the wrestlers enough money for them to start their own things. That COULD be interesting, although a promotion by The Young Bucks or Chris Jericho will almost definitely be ass. There’s enough benched talent in AEW to make something interesting enough to compete with AEW itself. |

People on the other boards very critical of the Bloodline story...
But in my opinion it is still one of the only things holding any semblance of passing interest. I'm interested in checking out Survivor Series now where otherwise I wouldn't really be. |

I haven't watched regularly in a while. I'm still interested in the Bloodline stuff, though.
But I kinda can't believe they've kept it going so long. |

My (non-watchin ass) guess is Romans team wins but Rock comes out after and hit's Roman with a rock bottom.
