    Question for those who've seen Solo Sikoa more than I have—what is his ceiling? I don't think they brought him up just to be a third henchman when Roman already has two. Is he ready to play the role of the family member who turns on Roman and tries to the title from him?

    It would be a compelling story line, just curious if he can handle the part.

    Immediately, I think he is there to be the third henchman. They're the Samoan Four Horsemen. The Usos are Tully and Arn, Solo is Windham.

    There will always be something long term, but I think the first domino to fall will be them getting rid of Sami. I don't think we'll see any fracture within until Roman loses one or both of the belts.

    I dont think Solos ready to be anything beyond a henchman. He doesnt even strike me as being in the same “ready” level as a Carmelo Hayes

    But who wooda thought Jey Uso was ready when he main evented with Roman and those matches wound up being incredible…..so anythings possible

    PWI 500 is out, top ten being
    1- Roman Reigns
    2- Okada
    3- CM Punk
    4 - Hangman
    5- Bobby Lashley
    6- Cody
    7- Bryan Danielson
    8- Hijo del Vikingo
    9- Big E
    10- Jonathan Gresham

    Seems right altho no Mox is highly questionable. Seth Rollins as well. They take into account July ‘21 thru June ‘22 so Mox’s rehab time is right in there…. He’s 12th, MJF 16, Rollins 17, Cole 18, Omega 19, McIntyre 20

    My big takeaway is Lashey in the top 5. They’ve done a remarkable job building him into a legit star, credible champion and draw. Guys some a long long long way from marrying Lana in the worst segment ever. God bless MVP

    CMP just punched a wall when he saw Hangman that high.

    Also ... Flair has a line of cannabis out there?

    Speaking of wrestlers using drugs, here's Velveteen Dream accusing EC3 of sniffing cocaine with him and two other unnamed NXT wrestlers (past and currently still on the WWE payroll).

    Regal: "Will I get canceled if I call these two ladies 'harlots' on TV?"

    Gotta love the lordship on commentary.

    Strong WCW vibes with AEW bringing in Action Bronson for a match.

    You were saying? Do you have tomorrow's Powerball numbers, too?

    Danielson vs. Mox for the title next week. Gotta believe it'll be Bryan, so Mox can take the vacay he was going to go on before all hell broke loose.
