    Agree with a lot of it, although I keep the Network. I watch the PPVs, which aren’t too bad, generally, (dumb HITC finishes aside). I enjoy watching some Hidden Gems matches, and the occasional old Prime Time Wrestling (just for Gorrilla and Bobby).

    Some of the documentary content can be quite good. I was sick in bed recently for a day, so I watched the Sasha documentary (very compelling) and the recent Goldberg one (eh, it was OK).

    For $10 a month, I look at the PPV as a night at the movies, except I have microwave popcorn and I don’t have to drive. Anything after that is a bonus.

    That's how I look at it. I don't watch much on there except for the PPVs and the occasional old match, but I'd probably order a couple of the bigger PPVs anyway. So anything I get outside of Wrestlemania and the Royal Rumble, at that price, is just gravy. It's a perfect price point.

    Holy shit. And great save by Keith Lee to keep himself from tumbling out between the ropes.

    NOW Balor turns heel?

    At least he and Gargano will tear down the house.

    Don’t know if it matters for ratings but wwe spoils too much of its own stuff on social media.

    I’m a Balor mark. Its spoiled. It was spoiled by multiple non-NXT accounts I follow I figured would be safe to not mute (AJ Styles being one, random local radio another).

    So I’m watching AEW right now and I’ll get to NXT when I normally would pre-USA, Sat afternoon or Sunday morning.

    Jerichos’s segment with Cody did more to sell a match than just about anything in the industry in months.

    His promos and whoever he’s working with a given week are the best things on TV

    If Adam Rose and Braun Strowman had a baby, it would be present-day Adam Rose.
