Backlash wasn't as bad as I had expected.

Catching up now, Jey is entering the ring.
Freaking KO/Randy vs. Bloodline was nuts.
Fast forwarded through the Bayley match.

Judgement Day is so lame.
Priest doesnt need the title.
Still hasnt legit won a match.

I was surprised it entertained me as much as it did
It's been entertaining so far.
Priest getting pissed at the JD dudes was interesting.
That one is breaking up with Dom and Rhea on the shelf
This AJ/Cody match has been great. I thought it was going to be underwhelming.

Fixing to see the end of that, Priest versus Balor is coming. Heel Finn, especially if we get the Demon, is good for business. But yeah, Judgement Day is way past their expiration date.

Culminating with Rock vs Roman in Vegas at Wrestlemania
Now we are talking!! I'm in for this!
Jey is too over to go back to a bloodline story.

It's 1000% happening, its the only way to finish the story and send Roman off. Otherwise, he would have won the belt last night, but they aren't going to do that so as to keep the Bloodline story front and center.
I actually think we see SZ come back into the story as well.
First time since June 2022 that the title defense hasnt had some type of interference. Hmmmm... Give Roman an *.

I saw that, cracked me up to read that stat.
Just a crazy stat, I mean, Roman didnt really defend his title too often, so it's not like it's 50 matches, but still...
Who had the Sandman from ECW was at one point a chippendale and a male escort on their bingo card? Women paid the Sandman and JYD. HaHa
If Jim Crockett had been a little more patient, maybe JCP would still be around. Paid McMahon a million dollars for the TBS time slot, which Vince was probably going to lose anyway. Then, Vince uses that money to bankroll WrestleMania, which he blackmails cable providers over to not air Crockett PPVs. Next, JCP pays Bill Watts a million for the dying Mid-South territory.
The territories are always a great topic. I often wonder if the top guys like Watts, Bosch, Fritz and Crockett would have put egos aside and built something that could last. I know eventually we get WCW, but I think they had a path to fight WWF/WWE and not give up.
That being said, I don't think they were all ready to evolve like Vince was envisioning and it was only a matter of time before they got eaten up or shut down.
Yeah, Ted Turner was the only guy that could go toe to toe with McMahon. But, the AOL/Time Warner merger ends WCW no matter what.
