    Great. So we're stuck with Steph for three more years?

    Well, I mean, she's also involved in creative and she can decide to just not use herself... Regardless, Stephanie isn't going anywhere because her last name is McMahon. I suppose if Vince ever dies, and Shane takes over the company for some reason instead, maybe she'll get phased out, but it seems like she and Hunter are going to be there forever.

    The Glasgow crowd just totally hijacked that women's segment with their Bayley song.

    The Bayley song is awesome. It was awesome at Takeover London. It was awesome on Raw. Hell my girlfriends name rhymes with Bayley and sometimes I want to chant it at her.

    What theyre doing with Braun is fun. Has a real attitude era feel of building a guy by putting him next to the top guys and seeing what happens.

    I've caught up to last week. Raw bores me to tears at times, and I don't halfway know what's going on. But I'm totally into SmackDown. It's by far a better show.

    He jobs out to Cena in the final four of the Royal Rumble and is wrestling Sheamus on the Wrestlemania pre-show.

    Raw lackluster again. I trudge through yet again. Looking forward to setting aside some time to catch up on SmackDown and Talking Smack.

    Observer from Nov. 14:

    - Jericho and the current Sin Cara (Jorge Arias) got into a short fight and pull apart on the European tour. Arias might be done with the company, since it’s his third fight in the past year (Sheamus and Gotch were the others). He’s been ordered to complete anger management counseling. Arias was apparently making noises on a bus and refused to stop when Jericho and others told him to, leading to the fight.

    - Survivor Series, and specifically Lesnar vs. Goldberg, is a hot ticket right now. The cheapest ticket is $145, vs. $20 for Takeover and $19 for Raw.

    - Rhyno lost his bid for office in the Michigan House. The AP falsely reported at one point that he won.

    - Akira Tozawa finished with Dragon Gate on Nov. 3. He’s going to the WWE.

    - Matt Riddle signed a multi-year extension with the WWN group. They’re closely affiliated with the WWE, but they’re likely not interested in him right now because he’s so pro-marijuana, and has multiple test failings in the UFC. However, the contract prevents him from working with TNA or ROH, so his options to move up are WWE or New Japan.

    - ROH has a bunch of contracts expiring at the end of the year: the Young Bucks, Bobby Fish, Kyle O’Reilly, Jay Lethal, Ray Rowe, Hanson, Kenny King, Steve Corino and BJ Whitmer.

    OK, that Raw was, dare I say, entertaining as hell. Jericho was fantastic, especially with that first segment with the scarves.

    It was a fun show. Jericho's great. Braun's funny.

    Can't shake the feeling that the last brawl was confusing. Shanes a natural face and Stephanie's a natural heel so Smackdown's the face? Even though Wyatt and Styles are supposed to be heels? And Rollins is supposed to be turning face? It was just a little bizarre to hear the pops for bad guys there.

    Jericho. The man that can get anything over.

    Tremendous.
