Hey @otherkellywells.bsky.social: Any concern in what seems to be a "downscaling" of NXT PLEs?
Vengeance Day was thrown together on the quick & will be AT THE PC.
Then, Stand & Deliver is moved off WM weekend & put in a 3K capacity venue.
Plus the news of the Peacock deal expiring mid-March.
#WWE continues to go head-first into this weekend's three-pronged mush-fest that exists solely to fudge with AEW's biggest show of the year.
Everything is so hastily slapped together. There are many matches that draw a big YAWN from me. Title changes? No chance until Evolution. MITB cash-in? MAYBE
Very good job, Al, Mark & Tim. Is there any validity to my hunch that we might just be getting a "bonus" non-game podcast Tuesday to follow what surely another day of significant news?
So, Father's Guido Sarducci was prophetic:
We can play his game of "Finda da Pope ina da [deep dish] pizza"
Roxanne Perez must be a fan of The Eagles. She seems to have checked out of NXT several times but she never leaves! She gets another title shot tomorrow night.
Round 1.
Game 1.
L.F.G.

Here's the first women's singles match in #WrestleMania history that isn't a title match or has some goofy gimmick or stipulation attached.
My first WWE PLE since downgrading my Peacock subscription to the "show commercials" level. But those time-filling "here's how we got here" video packages were no gems, either.
OK, rasslin' folk ... What are the odds that Vaquer vacates the NA title tonight, a tournament is announced with the final at Stand & Deliver?
And why will Jaida Parker win it?
I can get used to watching #WWERaw in the middle of a Monday afternoon.
Especially when the first 30 minutes goes like THAT.
I totally understand the reason for the difference, yet it will still be odd (here in the US) to have these European #WWERaw shows available live but not the #WWESmackdown shows.
Sorry, WWE. A Hall of Fame show that starts at ONE A.M. Eastern time is going to have to go on without me. I'll catch the replay.
My view for #NXTVengeanceDay:
Happy Graduating! Congrats.
Hey @pwtorch.bsky.social @otherkellywells.bsky.social -- I will be at NXT Vengeance Day tomorrow. Need an on-site person?
Also, who might we be on lookout for as a new (or not so new) appearance? Jordynne? Josh? Hardys??? Hardys vs Fraxiom? Yes, please.
So, does the 60-90 seconds it takes to get to the ring count as time actually in the Rumble match? #RoyalRumble
According to my numbers, she actually lasted a minute longer than Liv -- and should hold the record at 1:08:16.
Wait. Didn't Roxanne last LONGER than Liv? #RoyalRumble
Caught up in the Becky swerve. #RoyalRumble
Two left . Becky and ... who?
Agreed. The only thing missing is a running clock.
But that would show just how random these entries are -- far from exactly 2 minutes!
Who'da thunk one half of the worst match in NXT history (B-Fab vs. Electra Lopez in the 2.0 era) would ever make her way into the women's Rumble match?
So, the NXT Stand & Deliver bell time is moved two hours later -- 3 pm ET vs. 1 pm -- which reduces the time between it and the first night of WrestleMania. Good for those of us watching from home but that doesn't give much of a break for those planning to go to both events.
Except for not getting 7, there was nothing about that opening possession that won't work over the full 60 minutes.
Defense needs to match that.
#RaiseHail
Here.
We.
Go.
The NFC Championship is 60 minutes away for the Washington for the first time as the Commanders and for the first time for the franchise in 33 years!
Going to be ensconced in front of the TV with a definitive DC meal -- Ben's Chili Bowl half smokes.
#RaiseHail
#HTTC
And, Rock drops the first unbleeped four-letter S-bomb. #WWEonNetflix
Who do you think comes out first? Might be Trips to pull the curtain down. I hope there isn't a giant red N in the middle of the ring!
OK. History is 25 minutes away. Who is the first person through the curtain on the very first #RawonNetflix ? This has to be big. Maybe Triple H. Or Cody. Or Rock. Or Cena. (Please, NOT Hogan!)
After snow events like this, I have enough trouble getting to work when my neighborhood streets ARE treated and plowed.
But now my boss wants me to come in ON MY DAY OFF and no Bowie plow has been anywhere near the house?
I'm going to hold my tongue and not give you another verse of my same ol' song about how middlin' Kirk Cousins truly is.
He don't play defense and this Falcons D is making Bo Nix look like John El .... OK, not quite THAT good but, you know.
