I'm legit surprised that so many people are excited about Lashley's title win.
It seems people are hoping for Brock vs Lashley.
I'm not sure Brock is even down for wrestling anymore.

Brock still can put on some good/ entertaining matches when he wants to. Example, his performance at the 2020 Royal Rumble was great. I feel like if they pitched him something that peaks his interest such as a match with Lashley and of course paid him a boatload of money, he would be down.
Here is something not many know about.....Vince McMahon in December 1997 tried to re-sign the Ultimate Warrior to a new contract. A fan got a hold of the contract offer from December 17th 1997. Included was...
- $750,000 downside guaranteed a year.
- 35% on royalties
- Working 14 dates a month ! (which Vince told him would be good for him as well as better per year and royalties wise)
The contract is legit according to Jim Cornette as he brings up how it was typed and that the contracts going out was done this way. It doesn't shock him that McMahon would try and sign back Warrior. That after losing Bret and others he may have worried WCW would go after the Ultimate Warrior.

Would guess Lashley's run as Champion lasts till Summer Slam? Don't see them putting the title on him just to drop it back to Drew in a month at Mania. Would not make much sense but this is the E, so who knows? I would guess this means Edge will win at Mania? I don't see both main titles being retained? If Edge is scheduled to win, then that would be the Sunday main event so Mania ends on a feel good moment.
Nice No More BS shirt being worn by Paul Wight on AEW tonight. lol. He mentioned AEW signing a HOF quality talent, that will announced on the PPV on Sunday. He said its not who you think (CM Punk). Any rumors to who it is?

happy about lashley. lashley managed by mvp is a main event act, and the hurt business has been a consistent high point of raw for a long time. they're kind of lacking in credible faces though.
i hope it's not carlito, that would be so disappointing.
i think brock is an amazing talent when motivated, however wwe seems to think they have to sacrifice the entire roster to him whenever he comes around and i'll take a pass on ever seeing that again.
i had zero interest in shaq/jade vs cody/velvet but it turned out to be pretty entertaining.

Old school wrestling fan here and this has been the best week on free tv in ages, love the Lashley squashing of the Miz for his well deserved Championship, long may he reign. I have to admit I geeked out watching Tully Blanchard sporting his US title from back in the day and his iconic robe and boots, then sling shot supplexing Marco Stunt, then delivering a spiked piledriver and pinning Luchasaurus, after being walked to the ring by JJ Dillion and even Arn Anderson throwing up the symbol of excellence at the match's conclusion. I was praying the masked man was Barry Windham because Tony mentioned this is the same location where Barry turned on tag team champion partner, Lex Luger, to give title to Blanchard and Anderson and join the Four Horsemen (my favorite faction in wrestling ever), later that show the Midnight Rider (Dusty Rhodes) jumps into the Horsemen lockerroom to get an explanation from Barry, where the Rider is mauled and unmasked. Final scene of show is Barry getting into the limo with JJ, Arn, Blanchard and Flair putting the 4 fingers through the eye holes of the Midnight Rider mask. MY FAVORITE WRESTLING MEMORY OF ALL TIME! Not a fan of everything AEW does but they scored a lot of points with me on this.
Not sure why everyone is surprised by how Shaq did. The man is the master of Shaq-Fu after all.
