Rasslin’ (WWE, AEW, etc…)

I've seen some geek on youtube ranting about Maxine beating Becky Lynch because it "kills Becky's momentum" and Maxine isn't great in the ring. I honestly don't care. WWE is so predictable that I just was happy to see a match result that I didn't expect. As far as Becky goes, who cares? She's done everything and is already a guaranteed hall of famer, I don't care if she loses to some lower midcarder. Becky is untouchable at this point in her career. Frankly, I find her boring as she is just another one of those people who constantly gets pushed much like her husband. I'm tired of the same people dominating WWE all the time. Just give Maxime a brief run with the belt, then have some one else take it from her. That's fine by me. I'm more into her having a title run than I was with the boring as hell US title reigns of Zelina Vega and Giulia, two boring as fuck characters who had no story whatsoever.
The truth is, it doesn't kill Becky's momentum. If Maxxine had won cleanly without AJ Lee's interference, you could say that. Plus, she clearly improved in the ring.
Although I hope they go further in the direction of the story that is writing itself here. A feud with her friend and trainer Natalya, who will simply be jealous, and which will ultimately allow Natalya to bring her Nattie gimmick to WWE.

CM Punk plays the good boy game which finally ensures what he wanted all along. Being on the merchandise and being a face of the company. Hes not causing any trouble or being controversial which i would say was a heavy part of his contract anyway.

I think there's much more to it than that. Punk is finally where he wanted to be when he returned to AEW, but for various reasons, he wasn't.
From various interviews, we know that the WWE locker room is currently a friendly place, and the wrestlers get along pretty well. On the other hand, from the few memories we have, because those who left AEW are reluctant to talk about it, the AEW locker room doesn't seem like a very nice place.
And here you can understand it. There are quite a few people there who certainly have some grievances because they are not being used or have fallen significantly in the hierarchy. There are guys who have power behind the scenes and are also active wrestlers (more or less like The Rock), namely the Young Bucks, Kenny Omega, Christopher Daniels (before he retired from the ring), Chris Jericho, Brandon Cutler, Jeff Jarrett.
With a guy with such a strong personality, this was bound to lead to conflict, and in the case of the Young Bucks, it did.
And since a few people like Bucks and Jack Perry happen to be jerks in real life... well. It didn't end well.
In WWE, CM Punk certainly enjoys a certain amount of freedom—at least in terms of promos—and for now, he is unofficially mentoring young talent, as mentioned by Cora Jade/Elayna Black, Roxanne Perez, Trick Williams...
After ending his career in the ring, he will certainly remain in WWE as a coach, producer, or, as has been rumored for some time, Shawn Michaels' successor in NXT.
And I think he wanted to play a similar mentoring role in AEW, but they didn't see him in that role there...
 
Up with a detox tea and got shopping ordered for tomorrow. Have new headphones coming from a black friday deal so wednesday looking good. On a rest day today
some surprising and controversial match results from what I've heard.
Havent seen the main event but watched moxley and kyle o reilly. Forktastic. The ladies tag match was fun as well.
 
That was funny as i think brock is harpooning his whole career at this point to give the fans laughs.
I'm actually okay with that. He's done everything else already, might as well give us something to enjoy in this dreadful current product.
 
Survivor series weekend i normally come off social media later so i can watch sunday. Will there be any surprises who knows theyve had a lazy year so maybe they need to do something tonight.

I'll be using Survivor Series mostly as background noise like most events these days. Not much going into it grips me. I did randomly catch the AAA show yesterday and El Grande Americano vs. El Hijo del Vikingo was fantastic.

Ive netflix paid up to sometime in december and it comes as part of the uk package so i lose very little if its not a great show
 
It's gonna be a shitty show with nothing noteworthy to talk about other than Edge showing up.
 
Very weak mens war games match a mystery man appears o great writing.
Cena gets screwed to look like a fool on his retirement tour as well even if
he is putting over dirty dom seems pointless him having any sort of last match in december which could have been saved as the intercontental title match to be honest to make it interesting.

All in all if i end up cancelling my netflix again come december 15th and watch the saudi royal rumble behind the sofa ill be happy. this company is redundant of good ideas or even giving a decent surprise. Ok you got liv morgan back but still.

WWE just keep doing this shit because people are stupid enough to pay the tickets im going nowhere near raw when it hits my country for the first time january 19th. Probably get 2 cases of beer and enjoy the loudness of the fans in belfast.

I only watch Saturday nights main event because its shown for free in the UK usually on youtube. Wait till you see him get the goldberg treatment where his match is about 5 minutes and any speech he makes is cut short lol. He should go to AEW in 2026 and go and get that match with edge at wembley stadium.

Raw is Snore so much for triple H saying raw will be epic lol.

If he shows up to that in a wrestling capacity he wasted everyone's time this year. Either way, by the 2027 Saudi WM I probably won't be watching the product in any meaningful way. With the way TKO is increasingly hostile to the fanbase I don't think the product will be in a state where I give any credence to it outside of YouTube & social media clips.
 
There's no reason to watch Cena now. The most interesting thing about his retirement run was the heel turn and Triple H completely botched it. I honestly don't give a crap about his last match. Props to him for putting over Dom though. Back in the "Super Cena" days when Vince was running things you would have never seen that. Cena buried 70% of the people he worked with back then.
