NWA debuted its new studio show yesterday and it's kind of awesome.

Straight out of the 70s/80s that's great.

Yeah, it's a lot of fun and at one hour (and available on YouTube) it's something I'll watch while I work. One thing I'd like to see them address in future episodes is finding a way to elevate the hard camera a bit so it's above the ropes.

Oh also the fact that they got the "still real to me guy" was a hilarious touch.

I'm watching the 2nd episode of AEW and man Jericho is back to being himself on the mic. Sooooo good. Crowd in the palm of his hands. Masterclass in how to cut a promo right there and get everyone in your group over perfectly.

You can say F and C on FX. Sausage Party was on a few weeks ago...on a Sunday morning and while some were bleeped, inexplicably, some were not.

You can say and show anything on cable because it’s a pay service. No FCC on cable. Networks censor themselves to keep the advertisers happy.

I will say that Smackdown stage is cool as hell. But ugh, here we go with the "brand supremacy" crap. Like anyone cared a decade ago. Like anyone cared a year ago. Like anyone cares now.

WWE: Why cant we ever build stars?

Also WWE: Let's embarrass Chad Gable for a month over his height and then literally change his name to "Shorty."

Also the rest of the AEW show was all good to very good. Nothing dragged. They have had a really good two weeks.

Yeah Jericho vs Darby Allina next week in a street fight. I'll be there when they are in Pittsburgh on the 23rd.

From the sounds of it, Kofi Kingston completely reverted to his pre-title run character last night. No inkling that he had just held the title for six months. No disappointment, no mention of it, nothing. What crappy writing.

Smackdown’s roster is absolute mud and Raw was another bad show. I’m back to PPVs only.

By the way, Seth burning down the Firefly Fun House was their way of killing that gimmick, since FOX didn’t want that part of it. So WWE managed to not only kill one of the few things that was over, but they used Rollins to do it making the fans hate him even more. The top baby face.

The few minutes I put Raw on were really bad and not at all interesting.

I turned it on and within minutes I heard Stefanie screaming a bunch of catchphrases and nicknames, making the draft about as fun as watching weeds grow in an empty field. Turned it back about an hour or so later, she was back to screaming catchphrases again. Why not have a representative from each "brand" or cut to those goofy war rooms? On second thought, don't answer that.

Not that I was a big fan of Bray's new gimmick, but they killed it off already? Not surprising at all. So is he now gonna be some random goofball in a mask?
