Dream, Lee, Era...............

speaking about callups

keep a eye on Riddle. He is expected to be up soon

why?

lee should beat him to the bigs. Smackdown could really use Lee.

Ok. That would’ve been the perfect time for a Keith Lee drop in.

PWInsider reported tonight that Riddle is going to the SD brand soon, it's possible this upcoming cage match with Timothy Thatcher will be his final NXT appearance.

not a bad freemium model to get people to eventually upgrade to get the PPVs.

I was thinking it would be wise of them to toss a free PPV or Takeover on there like once a year. Give users a taste and then upsell them. Obviously not a WM or big show, but like some random June type PPV. Like Backlash would be perfect

giving them in your house wouldn’t be a bad start

Pretty good show.

Had some really good matches even if Incomplete endings.

Nia Jax heel turn is...pushing the pc limits...and I dig it.

glad wwe finally followed aew and got the kids in the stands. Finally makes sense for people to address the crowd. And mcintrye banging the glass was perfectly timed.

Btw I love Mcintyres title reign.

he’s active like an IC champ.

he has a great feel for the crowd.

and the countdown to the clayMore is one of my favorite things on wwe today.

Paul Heyman out as creative director of Raw. Bruce Pritchard is gonna run both shows now.

This could be a bummer. Guys like McIntyre, Murphy, Andrade, Garza, etc are being elevated largely because of Paul Heyman.

Not thrilled anyone dumb enough to publicly say “Bret screwed Bret” has control of creative...

Backlash was pretty good overall.

Some bummer news though

Edge tore his tricep during the match (which was actually pretaped last week). He's out for several months
