    I mean don’t get me wrong that’s awesome but wasn’t Tori also part of DX for like, two years or so

    Also, LOL at dropping the “rode a tank to WCW” line literally above the picture of them on the very much not a tank

    Tori was X-Pacs girlfriend for, like, six months in 2000, I can't remember if she was officially a member or just a part of the scene, like Kane was.

    Although she did switch from a red top to a green one, which is more than Kane could be bothered to do.

    I've wondered for years if my memory of Kane wearing a green outfit for a week was manufactured.

    every time they try to paint the dx invades wcw bits as anything other than embarrassingly lame and ineffective, i cringe a little.

    There apparently was a toy prototype made of it but that never came out obviously

    It was the 90s.

    Pretty much everything was embarrassingly lame and ineffective.

    I mean it was a good fun jab at the competition but this is like claiming that those commercials where a man dressed up as Crash Bandicoot and taunted other videogame companies was responsible for the success of the Playstation. It's not a big deal. It's barely a thing people remember.

    The only thing Crash Bandicoot successfully sold was Stuffed Crust Pizza.

    There's also stories about Kane wearing a green outfit for, like, three house shows. I think both are just urban legends, honestly. I've never seen pictures or heard anyone say they've seen pictures of either.

    He's the mist spewing, hard kicking and formerly tea pouring Japanese Buzzsaw! But this Japanese wrestler is as beloved as he is influential. Kefin and Jo learn all about the fascinating story of Yoshihiro Tajiri!

    I've always been curious how much of the audience is familiar with NXT and it's roster. Judging by the reaction the four got, the answer is 'not many'.

    Also, how weird that Velveeten wasn't brought in with them.

    I liked how Bobby Lashley hit that suplex and grabbed the rear chinlock on Finn. He didn't do either "cleanly" he just brute forced the move to work and it looked better for it.

    If they let Ricochet do Ricochet things then I don't think we have to worry about that initial crowd reaction.
    Also congrats HHH, giving me DIY vs. Revival will absolutely trick me into watching Raw.

    Based on some stuff that was said I think Ricochet is being called up and maybe Aleister?

    I genuinely think they might go Bryan/Kofi at Mania

    Bryan doesn't really have any other babyface challengers right now and the only other real big candidate is Rey Mysterio, I guess?

    The response to Kofi has been fantastic, Bryan is building a goon squad so Big E and Xavier can keep busy during the build up too

    It's the best option they have right now

    I get the sense that with Buddy Murphy touting himself as "the greatest Cruiserweight of all time" Rey's going to challenge him for the title. Also there's the rumor that they want to do Almas/Rey. So it's more likely that Kofi will be Bryan's Mania opponent.

    Scott Dawson wandering a little too close to the fans just so he can jerk his arm away in disgust after that little kid pat him on the back is such great subtle character work.

    Sure sounds like Ricochet got called up.

    Awesome for him, but it feels kinda of anticlimatic?

    Eh, he wasn't gonna win the big belt and he has had a ton of big marquee matches and just dropped his title

    Him and Aleister make sense
