    I had a thought last night about the McMahon departure … did Vince inform Endeavour about the NDA and that he still owed $2 million under its terms?

    If he didn’t, would that be cause for immediate dismissal?

    I can see the Raw women in the main of Night 1, but I don't think we'll see Bianca cross brands. We'll have Rhea vs. Nia in Australia, then I'm thinking Rhea vs. Becky or Jade or both at Mania. With how they made Jade look at the Rumble, I think they're strapping a rocket to her.

    (edit) Liv can't be forgotten either. She needs her comeuppance with Rhea.

    Jade Cargill looked terrible at the Rumble. I suspect she’s going back to the Performance Center.

    Is she going to be delivering five-star classics in the vein of Sasha and Bayley? No, but I didn't see anything criminally wrong. She had a great presence, the crowd loved her, and she got the spot of the Rumble by dumping Nia and (wo)manhandling her like few other women have in WWE.

    Is there room for improvement, sure, but she hadn't been in a true match since September, but that was probably the best match of her AEW career in the farewell against Statlander. Before that, she never had room for growth because Tony kept booking her against enhancement talent and jobbers, like early-streak Goldberg vs. the likes of Jerry Flynn.

    Trick might be the hottest act NXT has had since the heyday of the black and gold era. Not sure how hot the crowd will be in Tennessee this weekend, but that could be a big moment if Trick beats Dragunov.

    Guessing Trick and Melo lose the tag match with Bron and Corbin, Trick wins the big belt and Carmelo FINALLY snaps on Trick, setting up the Mania weekend showdown.

    There’s nothing left for him to do with the IC title. I think him or Drew are the only logical heel choices on Raw right now.

    God bless the mention of Sherwood Schwartz and the Spider Lady in a 2024 wrestling promo.

    They explained that Claudio and Bryan weren't there because they're competing Saturday.

    Don't know where Yuta is.
