    Anyone care about Logan Paul?

    Its def a big deal outside the rasslin community. My thought goes to, Did Stephanie push for it now to show ‘look what I can do in charge’

    He's got some talent, but he'll just be a special occasion thing, like Bad Bunny or pre-murder Cain Velasquez. I seriously doubt he'll be jumping on the house show loop.

    Logan Paul is also making eight-figure amounts doing PPV boxing, IIRC. For a one-off, WWE is usually willing to give $5M to $20M for top tier draws, but I kind of doubt they'd be willing to open the wallet to make Logan Paul a full-timer.

    A "Good Old-Fashioned Battle Royal" that involves the guys already in the MITB match? Not only is the name idiotic, but the premise, too.

    Shouldn't it just be a battle royal for the guys who still want in the MITB?

    Better than an eight-man tag team match, playa.

    So they went with the general fan emotion and give Liv the women's briefcase. But why do I foresee them having her be one of the ones who acting blows the opportunity?

    Corey Graves: "Triple H told me about this real romantic spot in Las Vegas."

    Nice callback.

    Also seen allusions to Gable Steveson (gold medal) and Edge (Easter eggs of past rivals, like Bubba's taped glasses, and Jeff Hardy's frayed sleeves).

    The holy fuck? They had Liv give Ronda her first clean 1-on-1 loss in WWE the same night?!?

    I'm not exactly upset, but I'm floored.
