Fingers crossed.
I saw on twitter this AM that supposedly Dunn has given his notice or is planning to give his notice saying that he's done. Went back this afternoon and can't seem to find the article.

Phone went dead shortly after, so I'll do a search once I'm out of the office.

I just want to be able to watch WWE without getting nauseous. Imagine actually being able to follow the action? That'd be amazing.

I would be fine if they only cut to a different camera when the action takes place outside of the ring. I've noticed that AEW has started doing camera cuts more often and I don't like it. They also seem to do it at the worst time and some spots are completely missed while they show the crowd or the announcers.

At some point Dunn or whoever heard a film editor say to cut on action and boy oh boy did he listen to that advice. If you notice, WWE always cuts in the middle of a move. They most likely believe that it helps sell the impact but in reality it makes the match much harder to follow.

I don't care about WWE that much these days. Most of my updates are from news sites and seeing what people post on twitter.

That said, knowing that Mania would be within a reasonably close distance, I might at least look at prices.

I was hoping they'd do away with the two night Manias with Vince gone. I'll check out ticket prices for sure. I fully expect to be in the nose bleeds because I don't care enough to pay for the better seats. And I'd only do one night, assuming that's possible.

That was my other thought. That evening might be 55 or it might be 35.

Looking at Philly's weather from the past five years, I'm gonna use the temps between 6pm and midnight. I'm also posting the first two weeks of the month to provide a better range of weather during that time of year.

2022
First weekend: 55/45 (Saturday) and 52/45 (Sunday)
Second weekend: 54/50 and 52/45

2021
First weekend: 52/46 and 66/54
Second weekend: 68/59 and 64/48*

2020
First weekend: 55/48 and 64/55*
Second weekend: 55/39 and 66/57*

2019
First weekend: 66/46 and 64/54*
Second weekend: 72/59 and 72/70

2018
First weekend: 45/39 and 46/36
Second weekend: 79/48 and 41/39*

* - rained after 6pm that evening

Eh they pulled it off in NJ in April. The ring will be under a cover also. Any time you have an outdoor event that’s a risk. Mania 37 was delayed in Tampa. It’s not really a huge deal since they aren’t tied to PPV timeframes anymore. If it’s just rain, the show will go on. It’ll only be delayed for storms.

Not sure why Jericho needs to be in the title picture, but Mox's promo makes me want that match.

Plus if we get lionheart Jericho that will be fun.

the match with Mox and Jericho will possibly be good, IF, and this is a HUGE if with Jericho involved, they can keep it from turning into an overbooked mess with JAS/BCC/etc... but I don't trust it.

Wasn't expecting that, but if this leads to both these guys getting more time, especially Starks, I am all here for it.

I'm assuming this is the reason they didnt win the titles the other week.

Bit of a delayed post but I'm so over the JAS interfering in every other match.
