    Haven't had a problem with Jacy Jayne infiltrating Chase U, but it is starting to get a little cheesy for my taste.

    And what's the end game with Gacy, now that the GYV are gone? They've shown background shots of Ava talking with Heyman and HBK. What's going on there?

    I kinda half-watch it and flip around to other stuff, so I’m not as up on the storylines for this show as opposed to Raw and SD.

    Same and I think this is a feature of NXT, not a bug.

    the stories are supposed to be easily digestable and a little cheesy.

    Oh, shit. Adam Copeland dropped the F bomb and they didn't drop the audio in time.

    There’s at least a 30-second delay between live and satellite. They never intended to drop the audio in time.

    They did. They were just about 5 seconds late. They dropped the audio in time when Christian did it to Adam a few weeks ago.

    That’s the thing — they had 30 seconds to dump the audio before it went to the bird. They didn’t.

    Bryan Danielson led the committee that ran the Pepsi Phil inquiry? Interesting.

    “OK, we’ve reviewed the case, conducted interviews and read the documentation. It’s time to vote on whether All-Elite Wrestling should terminate the contract of Phillip Brooks, known professionally as CM Punk. Mr. Danielson, should Mr. Brooks’ contract be terminated?”

    “YES! YES! YES! YES! YES!”

    “Please, Mr. Danielson. This is a formal hearing. There is no need to raise your arms and jump up and down.”

    Reportedly, the top three suitors for Raw broadcast rights: Disney (FX), Amazon (Prime)...

    And WarnerMedia. Wouldn't that be something? AEW and WWE as reluctant bedfellows, and WWE on either of two networks that were once Ted Turner's babies.

    Have no problem with the others. FX is no different than USA, and I'm an Amazon Prime subscriber, so that would be no sweat to me.

    Nice trivia question: CM Punk's first televised WWE match? A tag with a jobber against the iconic team of Maven and Simon Dean.

    Forget signing Randy Orton to an exclusive SD deal. What's Nick Aldis going to do about SD being pre-empted one hour in the Atlanta market for local UGA/SEC championship fluff?
