Let's make it a show! Loved that his use his old intro at Smackdown!


Listening to Sami Zayn getting interviewed by Stone Cold on The Broken Skull Sessions, he’s so well-spoken and is a great raconteur.

He expresses himself with so much ease and is incredibly animated, constantly motioning with his arms and hands. This guy is a natural in front of the camera, so articulate — of course, it’s nothing new to regular wrestling fans but I can easily see how he can have drawing power for new fans.

Still watching the Zayn interview, they’ve done a retrospective of his highlights and among them was a riveting trailer for a documentary that was never made, called Justice for Sami:



Zayn made a plea for some backing, hoping that the documentary will get made, saying how much great footage he has shot.

Zayn is so good in front of the camera. Stone Cold brought out comparisons with Robin Williams in terms of his mannerisms and speech patterns, which is quite a high standard. Stone Cold also said that there was a lot of George Carlin him too.

This guy should seriously become a full time actor at some point, he’s got great chops. He commands attention.

Summer McIntosh a 16 year old has broke 2 world records this week at Canadian swim trials. She broke the 400m fly previously owned by Titmus and the 400 IM previously owned by Hosszu. She also broke the junior records in the 200m Fly and the 200m IM which both are top 10 fastest times of all time and the fastest times in the world this year. She has the 200m freestyle to swim tomorrow. At next year's Olympics this is a name to remember.

Pretty much only the main event for me tonight....
I think the women's tag match should be fun. The men's worked better than I expected last night, so if this is a quick 10-15 minute thing with everyone getting in their spots, it'll be cool.

I don't get the appeal for Cody at all. I find him incredibly boring, and I'm not looking forward to the best storyline the WWE has done in a very, very long time final chapter coming as a result of a Cody win. He's an average promo and maybe a slightly above average wrestler but is overall just so f***ing boring and always has been, IMO.

Well, Cody is the indie poster boy. That's the appeal but I also don't think he has what it takes but at some point the Roman thing must also end so they can go back at having belts moving around the roster (which they also did with the tag team belt yesterday).

Cody is their new toys so they might go with him as there not many worthy on the roster anyway that did not had their big match with Reign already.

It's also getting boring to watch Reign, which I also think he's not that great of a wrestler or promo guy, with the usual storylinr of him cheating his way out of out most match and always find a way to win.

Chapman's GS makes it a 2 run game. He's hot.

This game changed on a dime!

Really weird and so refreshing to watch a fast Jays team. Very fast in fact.
