$4 increase. Remember all the talent saying $9.99. It doesn't matter though, you're right. I wouldn't pay for it anyways. 5 hours between Raw and Smackdown, NXT, and with AEW coming. I'm tuckered out by Thursday before a lame PPV on Sunday. Just my opinion.

You’re in Canada. It was $11.99 to begin with.

They introduced a new system and tiers in America.

As with anything in the States, the penalties massively depend on where you live. Liberal, crime ridden areas are a lot less worried about "Petty" stuff like that. I happen to work in one of those areas, where you can basically get a $250 bond and probation for illegally carrying a gun... So you can imagine how they treat driving offenses.

All that being said, it's getting away from the point, which was if dummy is driving drunk, taking away his license sure isn't going to prevent him from driving.

Damn that's kinda shocking. I guess we all better hope he doesn't kill anyone if he doesn't smarten the f*** up.

im pretty damn sure it has always been 12.99 in Canada.

Probably. I spent money on a computer so I honestly am not sure. Think it was $9.99 though.

No it was $11.99 when I subscribed iirc

I love Randy

It wouldn't surprise me at this point to see Punk back in WWE. Seems like a bridge or two was mended over the years. How much does Heyman running Raw change things? I would laugh so hard if Punk came back to Raw to work with Heyman and Fox gets salty that one of the biggest names in the industry would be on USA.

Survivor Series is in Chicago this year...

I will never lose hope it's all a part of him whether he likes it or not. Every last person knows there's not a show that passes where a CM Punk chat doesn't happen, and that obviously includes Vince or anyone who works for him. Does he really not care about claiming that much money on the table?

f***ing guy was 100% the reason I came back to the wrestling world.

 

[Sheppy]

I don’t know, I just can’t see Punk back in the WWE. I would love to see it, but just can’t.

[GKJ]

I think that was expected after he was done school or something

 

[Cor]

Interesting.

I kinda wish with Shelley out of retirement, he would sign too, because I think MCMG on either NXT or WWE, is the best chance of Sabin having success.

Though, Sabin is 37, so maybe he’ll do a short run and then try and become a coach/trainer

 

[ColePens]

To think those guys have to go to the Performance center is insane. Guys who put on insane classics with Beer Money.

He's a guest coach:

[KIRK]

I don’t know, I just can’t see Punk back in the WWE. I would love to see it, but just can’t.

I don't see it either, unless they offer him an insane amount of money and heavy character control, but that's just such an infinitely small chance.

not wrestling: Netflix has greenlighted The Big Show Show, a half-hour multi-camera family comedy series starring WWE superstar Big Show. Also starring on the 10-episode series are Allison Munn (Nicky, Ricky, Dicky and Dawn) and young actresses Reylynn Caster (American Housewife), Juliet Donenfeld (Pete the Cat) and Lily Brooks O’Briant (The Tick).

The Big Show always came across as a comical guy, I think he should transition well into an acting comedic role out of wrestling.

Big Show seems more sad sack like in terms of his comedic talents. He needs to expand on that with whatever he gets outside of the ring.

Becky Lynch:

"Honestly, I was very apprehensive. Just because… I don’t know that… I don’t know that we needed to see… What I didn’t want was everybody talking about the relationship. What I wanted was two bad asses, two people at the top of their game fighting side-by-side. Not for the world to be reminded every five minutes that this is Becky Lynch’s boyfriend or that’s Seth Rollins’ girlfriend. Which, of course, they didn’t do. They were the masters of subtlety."

When? The only time Big Show was funny was his cameo on SNL in 2000 when Rock hosted. It was the first time he showed some comedic side to him and WWE almost immediately ran with it and made him into a comedy character. But he just wasn't funny. A lot of the blame is WWE writing but I always thought Big Show was just not very good at delivering comedy. Too forced.

Am I misreading this or is this woman completely delusional?

It's all codewords for, "Oh shit, what I just said probably sounded negative, I better walk it back before I lose my push."

 

[M.C.G. 31]

I think you’re misreading it. She’s essentially trashing the way they handled their relationship. They never wanted it on air.

 

[M.C.G. 31]

This past Monday’s Raw was the heaviest Heyman influence yet.

 

[ColePens]

I think you’re misreading it. She’s essentially trashing the way they handled their relationship. They never wanted it on air.

I listened to it on Post Wrestling, as he was the dude who asked the question. She absolutely was bashing WWE on how they handled it. And the subtle part was a joke about how WWE is awful at doing things subtly.
