WWE Thread.

[Marc Overmars]

Haven seen much since Wrestlemania.

Probably tune back in when Lesnar returns, interested to see what they do with him after ending the streak. Presumably he'll be in the title picture.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Supposedly will be around for Summerslam.

[Fist of Lehmann]

The Shield. :rose:

:crying:

All the TV shows I watch going to hell.

They're already talking about reforming them, at least temporarily.

I catch the shows very infrequently but Ambrose v Rollins seems to be working well. I thought Reigns was all set for a big push too until they had Cena win the title, stupid decision.

What's with this Adam Rose character? This must be one of the dumbest gimmicks around.
Is he supposed to be the comedy now Santino retired?

Disappointed BNB got injured, love seeing the Brits do well. It's all the fault of unsafe Swagger and his lispy twatface.
At least we still have Paige, she's from "Nowrich, England".

[Rors]

Paul Burchill was announced as being "from Chelsea, England"

And of course Regal was "from the mean streets of Blackpool, England"...

[Fist of Lehmann]

Blimey Paul Birchill, I remember seeing him perform his standing monorail finisher on two guys simultaneously on some tiny Brit promotion year's ago.

Another victim of Vince unfortunately.

That should read 'moonsault' not monorail...:lol:

[Rors]

The Standing Monorail must be on Jericho's List Of 1004...

[Fist of Lehmann]

Hold #1003 :...Standing Japanese High-Speed Monorail
Hold #1004 :...Armbar

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Spike TV have cancelled TNA, allegedly. :lol:

Agent Russo. :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Paul Heyman's rap. :haha:

:bow:

[mr_brighterside]

hope lesnar wins at the ppv.

cent must be the least popular face in the history of the wwe and his mo never changes

Hard to believe how much less interesting wwe is now compared to the old days

[McNamara That Ghost...]

No Punk, no Bryan. It's not really very good at the moment.

Heyman is the only one keeping my interest.

[mr_brighterside]

No Punk, no Bryan. It's not really very good at the moment.

Heyman is the only one keeping my interest.

true

Jericho v Orton could be good but not seen any of the highlights of them

[McNamara That Ghost...]

I think it is probably a feud that will see Jericho take his next hiatus. Should be a good match but not sure of much else.

[mr_brighterside]

I think it is probably a feud that will see Jericho take his next hiatus. Should be a good match but not sure of much else.

thats wwe's problem at the moment, most of the best talent are part time/appear at one offs

part of this is no one else can rise whilst cena is the to squash them/fail to sell them in fights as soon as they challenge

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Very true - Ryback ended up having to turn heel against Cena which was a disaster. Ryback had his Feed Me More chant and that's about it.

Bray Wyatt didn't really lay a mark on Cena for all the deep meaning promos.

[mr_brighterside]

Reigns has had surgery after a hernia, out for around 6 weeks.

Bleacher Report reckons Lesnar will win, so hope so!

[mr_brighterside]

cena dominated :sleep:

on the upside Dean Ambrose is back and there is talk of more NXT stars coming through. wwe need to make sure they aren't crushed by cena if they make it that far.

also who will orton be up against these days?

[Marc Overmars]

How long will Lesnar keep the belt for? With The Rock you knew it was short term and only to serve Cena at WM, but with Lesnar there appears to be no real angle. He's not going to work every PPV or even turn up for most RAWs, so I'm not sure what they can do to keep interest alive.

[mr_brighterside]

bleacher report suggests an orton face turn and match up with lesnar as a punishment. that could be interesting.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

They haven't decided what to do yet with Lesnar for HiaC. :rolleyes:

Night of Champions was mostly crap I thought. And RAW wasn't much better.

Rollins - Ambrose should definitely be one of the Hell in a Cell matches; a feud that actually deserves that.

[mr_brighterside]

a bit of 2001 nostalgia, saw this on youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lMS9eIZIpVY

Stone Cold & The Rock v Angle and Triple H

All four head and shoulders above the current lot :oldboy:

[mr_brighterside]

Raw seemed good last night, apart from cena unsurprisingly

[McNamara That Ghost...]

The cameo was good.

It was ok, mostly still a load of nonsense though.

[mr_brighterside]

the rock giving triple H some grief on smack down http://www.wwe.com/videos/the-rock-and-triple-h-take-an-aggressive-stroll-down-memory-lane-smackdown-oct-1-26718279 :lol:

if they did wrestlemania it would be 10 x better than anything with cen-enough in it.

[Marc Overmars]

I read they let Rock go unscripted, it came off much better than the cheesy build up to his matches with Cena.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GkZ9IUUz6Lo&feature=youtu.be

:haha:

[Marc Overmars]

I think RKO out of nowhere is the best vine in history tbh.

[mr_brighterside]

it is seriously funny

[mr_brighterside]

just saw raw highlights from wwe.com, is Rollins turning Orton into a face? :unsure:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

There were rumours that was going to happen, seems inevitable now.

Stupid move.

Or stupid, stupid, stupid as Orton would say.

I don't like where they are going with Ambrose. This comedy act stuff is annoying me.

[mr_brighterside]

orton continuing his face turn

RKO'ing Rollins was the best thing I've seen for a while

the survivor series bit with cen-enough f5ing two in a row :sleep:

[Marc Overmars]

WWE Network launches tonight for the UK. It's still $9.99 which is £6.25 for us and the best part is there is no minimum contract, so that means you can sign up for a month and cancel.

That's my Royal Rumble and Wrestlemania plan sorted.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

It's available free for the rest of November. :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

And free until further notice as it has been delayed.

:haha:

[mr_brighterside]

Ryback was good on Raw but not great. Cena got booed a lot in Liverpool!

The problem is there isn't any rivalry and story telling between two people right now that would be worth watching. And the wwe champ is never on!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Survivor Series: It finally happened!

Sting. :faint:

[Marc Overmars]

Pretty cool to see him in WWE at long last, I guess he'll probably face Triple H at WM31. Fills the part-time superstar void left by Lesnar too.

[mr_brighterside]

I can't believe the title has been held by someone who hasn't been seen for two ppvs

hopefully the downfall of the authority will spice things up

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Punk has signed with UFC. :blink:

[Marc Overmars]

Punk has signed with UFC. :blink:

Heard his podcast interview with Colt Cabana today.

Fascinating tbh.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Ryback. :lol:

What a clumsy oaf.

[Munchies]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=pLZJD9NzCyM

Hasn't ever sparred properly yet.. :doh:

He's had invitations to train with all the best MMA teams though so he'll have everything behind him

Wish him the best!

[Munchies]

Lots of talk about Lesnar returning to MMA.

WWE contract runs out in ~90 days

Supposedly already has 2 big offers from the UFC and Viacom's Bellator MMA

[Marc Overmars]

WWE Network finally available to us.

Apparently the first 2 weeks are free, which means we can watch the Royal Rumble then cancel before billing takes place. :popcorn:

[Munchies]

^ cheers, gonna look into it

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qCAPJOOSffU

good vid. his trainer trains the ufc lightweight champion

[Marc Overmars]

Currently working my way through the Monday Night War series. Great trip down memory lane.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Just signed up. :bow:

Streaming on the Xbox One. :bow:

[Marc Overmars]

Royal Rumble tonight. :popcorn:

Already looks a hell of a lot better than last year.

Going to cancel the network this week then sign up again for WM. 1 month commitments. :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Staying up for it. :cloud9:

Tactical agreement to cover the 12-8 shift working in my favour. :bow:

[Munchies]

Staying up for it. :cloud9:

Tactical agreement to cover the 12-8 shift working in my favour. :bow:

Well played

I'll catch the replay of it

[Munchies]

Watching a bit of the build up broadcast now

'we know you're all watching this on the wwe network... but if you aren't get the wwe network' :lol:

Booker T in the house :bow:

[Marc Overmars]

Watching the pre-show on the network, seems to be working smoothly but it did cut out at one point briefly and I had to return to the menu to start again.

Bound to be a lot of UK subscribers watching, I hope it streams well during the main event.

[Munchies]

Shawn Michael w/Booker T intv on

good stuff man

[Munchies]

Daniel Bryan got stripped? :haha:

[Marc Overmars]

That 'WWE 24' show looked really good. Love all that behind the scenes stuff.

They need more original content like that. The retrospective shows are great but there's only so much you can watch before realising you already know everything about the past.

[Munchies]

:gp:

Hopefully Sting doesn't enter. He should save it for WM

[Marc Overmars]

Seems like Sting will face Triple H at WM.

The Rock is there. :popcorn:

Perhaps just as a fan though.

[Munchies]

I hope the Rock makes an appearance of some sort, no matter how small.

And I'm gonna catch the replay later, why isn't this on a Saturday?!? ffs :lol:

Enjoy the event Mo/Maccy

[Marc Overmars]

Who are these pub team Road Warriors?

New Age Outlaws. :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Just the latest tag team they tried to bury.

Also, time for the title match.

What is quite cool is if you just got up now (like me) you can watch the whole thing from the beginning (unlike me).

Time for the title match. :popcorn:

[Marc Overmars]

Bubba Dudley! :bow:

[Marc Overmars]

The Boogeyman. :haha:

[Marc Overmars]

Bryan out early. :faint:
Of course the crowd proceed to shit on the rest of it.

[Marc Overmars]

Roman Reigns getting panned because they think he's a lock to win presumably.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Not bright booking.

Not even The Rock could get Reigns on the crowd's side.

[Marc Overmars]

Bit of a weird finish with Rusev.

Shame the crowd ruined what should have been a great moment with Reigns and The Rock.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

You'd think there would have been danger but nothing.

[Marc Overmars]

The booking was quite poor but it's odd how the fans complain about older guys and part-timers being given the top spots, then when a younger guy is positioned for success it's instantly thrown out the window because he's not their pick.

I wonder if the fanboys will get Bryan into the main event again or at least force them to rethink Wrestlemania.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

I think it's more of what kind of wrestler he is and he is atrocious on the microphone. Basically they see him and think Cena all over again.

Anyway, tonight's RAW has been cancelled. :haha:

Due to the weather apparently.

[Marc Overmars]

Yeah I can see why they don't want another Superman overcoming the odds. Just a shame really that what started out as a promising push for Reigns is now in the gutter. The creative team are quite awful in truth.

On another note, the network is now free for February. :popcorn:

[Marc Overmars]

Bray Wyatt calling out Undertaker for WM. :popcorn:

Shaping up to be a good card.

[mr_brighterside]

wrestlemania soon, not too excited about it other than the mid card matches should be good.

reins is ok but partnering him with the rock recently will lead to unfavourable comparisons!

are any of the nxt guys any good?

[Marc Overmars]

There are some intriguing matches but I don't think the build up has been very impressive. Feels like any normal PPV and Reigns will probably get booed out of the building too.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

The ending of RAW. :haha:

What a way to sell the main event of the biggest show of the year. A tug-of-war on the belt that was half-arsed at best.

[mr_brighterside]

What a way to sell the main event of the biggest show of the year. A tug-of-war on the belt that was half-arsed at best.

didn't look impressive. part of the problem is neither guy has great mike skills.

expectations are pretty low for wm but hopefully it will surpass them.

[Marc Overmars]

Lesnar has signed a new deal. :popcorn:

I guess that now adds a new dimension to WM plans.

[Marc Overmars]

Wrestlemania was #decent.

I thought the booking was mostly spot on for a change. Not sure about Triple H beating Sting though. Thinking about it though, the story was WWE vs WCW, so WCW was never going to win that.

On a side note, I wonder if The Rock's cameo is a tease for a match with Triple H next year?

[GP]

Triple H vs. Sting?

What year is it?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Ronda Rousey. :bow:

Happy to see Rollins as champion, Reigns is a pubber on his own.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

RIP Dusty Rhodes. :(

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Hulk Hogan. :haha:

Sacked from WWE. The racist fuck.

[GP]

Rowdy Roddy Piper has died.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Royal Rumble tonight...for the WWE title.

Not vacated like 1992, Reigns is defending it at #1. :wacko:

[Marc Overmars]

Well that was one of the worst Rumble matches I've ever seen.

Never again for the title please.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

What was that?

[Marc Overmars]

Bret Hart has prostate cancer. :(

Get well soon.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Come on Bret. :bow:

[Munchies]

Daniel Bryan retiring tonight due to injury

[Marc Overmars]

Such a shame, he was great.

[Marc Overmars]

I'm reading it's going to be Undertaker vs Shane McMahon at WM. In Hell in a Cell. :blink:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Makes more sense if you watch the opening segment of RAW.

[Marc Overmars]

Wrestlemania was a bit meh. Went on far too long and the lack of reaction for the main event said it all. Fun to see the returning legends though.

Shane McMahon stopped it from being a completely forgettable show at least.

What a man. :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

4 hours 50 is daft. Wrestlemania IV wasn't even that long and it felt stupidly bloated.

Well done to Shane for being absolutely mental though.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

RIP Chyna.

[rodders]

What has happened to Triple H?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

TV wise, have no idea. Embarrassed by his loss to Reigns I guess.

Speaking of which...Reigns suspended for violating wellness. :haha:

[Niall_Quinn]

Why aren'y they embarrassed at prancing about in their underpants. That's what I want to know.

[GP]

Aren't you?

[Niall_Quinn]

Aren't you?

Yeah but I'm fucking mad.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Why aren'y they embarrassed at prancing about in their underpants. That's what I want to know.

Where do I apply?

[Munchies]

Lesnar :bow:

Fuckin ANIMAL

[Marc Overmars]

Lesnar has apparently failed a drugs test. :doh:

[GP]

I am SHOCKED

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Punk's first fight in UFC tonight.

:popcorn:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

He got shat on. :haha:

[Marc Overmars]

So Lesnar v Goldberg was even worse than their match 12 years ago.

Impressive.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Bizarre really. Surprised Lesnar would agree to something like that. :lol:

[Marc Overmars]

Wrestlemania again went on far too long (5 hours or 7 if you include the pre show!) though I thought it was better than last year at least. They really need to pace it better because the crowd clearly lost interest towards the end.

Undertaker. :rose:

Childhood officially over.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Taker. :(

Gutted.

Also giving his last match to Reigns, really?

Also I thought it was mostly shite.

Bray Wyatt is the Eater of Pins.

[Marc Overmars]

The honour should have gone to Cena really.

Weird how they're so obsessed with pushing Reigns with he's been flat out rejected. He's never getting over, ever. Just turn him heel so at least it makes some sense.

In fairness to Reigns, Taker looked pretty beat up. Wasn't much to work with really.

[Marc Overmars]

Went to see WWE at Wembley tonight. Had a really good time, atmosphere was electric. Better than the Emirates that’s for sure...

Triple H was there and he teamed with Ambrose and Rollins. :bow:

[Globalgunner]

Still cant believe they put Braun Strowman in a dumptruck:unsure:

What will he smell like now?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

There have been several attempted murders recently on RAW.

Enzo Amore has been let go from WWE being accused of rape.

Anyway, it's my favourite time of year: Royal Rumble tomorrow night!

There is a women's Royal Rumble tomorrow and somehow that involves 30 participants too. :wacko:

I think Linda might have to get involved.

[Marc Overmars]

Haven’t been following it much lately but as always I will watch the Rumble and subsequent Wrestlemania build up.

Who’s likely to win?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Reigns.

[Globalgunner]

https://www.theguardian.com/artanddesign/gallery/2018/mar/27/heyday-of-british-wrestling-in-pictures.

I grew up in a time when Mick McManus was the most hated man in Britain. I was sure my mum would shoot him if she ever came across the devil. Happy days.

Now the most hated man is Wenger/Letters.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Wrestlemania tonight.

I might watch the pre-show from 10pm given both the Battle Royales have been shoved on there.

Fuck knows what is happening with Taker - Cena. Whether they actually have a match or build for next year (which I think would be a mistake).

[Marc Overmars]

Can’t believe they put Reigns on last again. How can they be so accepting of the crowd constantly shitting on the main event of their biggest show.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Lesnar has re-signed, so...same time next year?

"This is awful" chants for the main event at Wrestlemania. :haha:

[Globalgunner]

Bobby Lashley doesnt like Elias` music

A 10 year old won the TT titles.

Sometimes the scripts are good. Sometimes they're bad, bad.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

'Greatest' Royal Rumble is on currently.

Though I am probably an hour behind.

50 man Royal Rumble. :haha:

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

https://streamable.com/zv5z2

:haha:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Titus. :bow:

What a man.

[Marc Overmars]

Went to see RAW at the O2 tonight. Was generally good but 3 hours is too long, well actually it’s 4 hours as they taped a couple of matches for Main Event before and had an extra match when the main show ended.

Rollins is great. :bow:

Though I regret not booking Smackdown instead, especially now Bryan is back. Plus Nakamura and Styles who are little bit good.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Reigns got a good reception. :lol:

Cole dressed it up as him being 'serenaded'. :sarcy:

I love Elias. :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Vader has passed away. :(

[Globalgunner]

Vader has passed away. :(

Sad to hear it. I was genuinely fearful of that chap. Was sure he would splatter somebodies brains all across the ring.

Sleep well big man

[Marc Overmars]

His moonsaults. :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

WWE Super Showdown is on at 10am our time, crap PPV name but this is airing from Australia so it's great to have a show on at a reasonable time for once.

Old Man Taker v Old Man HHH for the last time ever allegedly.

Until they face off in someway at Survivor Series probably. :ninja:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Roman Reigns announced in the opening segment of RAW that he has leukemia, again.

WTF? :(

[Globalgunner]

I didnt even know he has had i for such a long time, Hope he beats it. Quite a man to be dealing with something like that while being a full time athlete.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Crown Jewel is on at 4pm GMT, a PPV hailing from Saudi Arabia (though they have not mentioned the location in a month).

Cena and Bryan refused to travel. :lol:

There's a World Cup tournament, featuring 7 Americans and a Mexican. :haha:

Didnt Kane just get elected as the mayor of some town/city.?. Doing it on a part time basis...and Im sure no one in the town council will have the nerve to call him out on it. 7ft tall mayor with anger management issues.

Yeah he did, for Knox County. He clearly doesn't think his association with Saudi Arabia will have any issues, which might be a fair assumption. :lol:

Summerslam tonight.

Might be alright but difficult to know with the programming at the moment.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

RAW is on Sky Sports tonight for the final time. :rose:

Smackdown is on BT from Friday and then RAW is also next week.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Royal Rumble starts in a couple of minutes.

Hoping Punk appears which isn't as fanciful as before as he is involved discussing WWE now.

However it is less likely given he recently told Miz to suck a dick. :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Well, Punk didn't turn up. :faint:

Edge did though. :bow:

Good on Drew McIntyre winning the rumble. Deserves it.

Least said the better for the women's rumble winner.

[Globalgunner]

Rubbish on display between Asuka and Becky Lynch. Lynch out cold for 1 min and the ref halts the match .Too much cheating even for wrestling. Didnt watch the rest of that match. Tuned back in time to see Brock Lesnar dumped out

[McNamara That Ghost...]

That was a great moment.

Never thought McIntyre as a face would work. :lol:

[Globalgunner]

Nice assist by Rico too

[Marc Overmars]

Wrestlemania is going to be held behind closed doors at the Performance Center.

That’s going to be so bizarre.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

They've done Smackdown and Raw for the last two shows.

Weird is right.

[Globalgunner]

They need the TV revenue money. Probably higher than the audience revenue. Besides, it fills a sports vacuum so they can probably ask a premium now. Feel sorry for the wrestlers though. Vince works them like slaves.

[Marc Overmars]

They've done Smackdown and Raw for the last two shows.

Weird is right.

Saw a few clips and it felt so strange. It's hard to suspend your belief with no crowd to bounce off. Just felt like watching random people play fight in the back garden.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Vince better hope 2 x Leukaemia defeater Roman Reigns doesn't get it.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

First night of Wrestlemania is on tonight.

It's not a spoiler to say Roman Reign is not in the title match against Goldberg as that was announced on Smackdown.

The event has already gone ahead and has been pre-taped, so be wary if looking to avoid spoilers.

So many gimmick matches to distract from the fact there will be no crowd. Going to be so weird to watch.

[Marc Overmars]

Ah that’s a shame it isn’t live.

Won’t be staying up to watch so tomorrow and Monday it is. Goes without saying it doesn’t feel like Wrestlemania at all. Got to feel for Mcintyre who will surely be going over and getting his moment.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Yeah I'd have thought so. First British WWE Champion possibly and no sod there to see it.

Edge v Orton has had a great build up and will really miss crowd participation.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

That was such a weird experience. :lol:

I think they did alright though. Loved the Boneyard match.

[Marc Overmars]

Didn’t think the Boneyard match would be filmed so cinematically. :lol:

Loving seeing more of an out of character Undertaker.

Bizarre event but did the best they could in the circumstances.

Night 2:

Well where do you start but the Firefly Funhouse Match? :haha:

That was absolutely nuts; did enjoy the references to Main Event, Hogan, Bischoff and Vince. Hard to really call it a match though, was more like a promo for a match.

As for the main event, it was a finisher spam fest but:

Drew is the Champ. :bow: Best Scottish British athlete of all time.

Edge v Orton was a tour of the Performance Centre. :lol:

That'll test if Edge's back really is fixed. :wacko:

[Mac76]

can't believe you guys all watch that shit, WWE is the biggest bullshit 'sport' ever, it's worse than American football and that is a real achievement

[GP]

The problem is, you're looking at it as a sport, not entertainment like any other TV show.

One one here is under the impression that this is in any way truly competitive.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Sure, good point :) but even then it's still BS

Anyway i won't win this one so will leave you all to it - just thought i'd give a view...

I don't care what anyone says. The Undertaker is real and he has supernatural powers.

Most of what you see on TV is “BS”.

It’s just entertainment. An art form. Frankly these guys put their bodies through way more than a competitive sports person does anyway.

Like anything on TV, you either like it or you don’t. Granted you probably have to “get” wrestling to really appreciate it but it’s just a TV show ultimately.

Ah forgot to say, Edge won the Rumble. Daniel Bryan is in the main event too, triple threat v Roman Reigns.

Drew McIntyre v Bobby Lashley in the other title match, which will actually be the curtain jerker tonight. :lol:

Fans in attendance, although only 1,000 I think.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

It was definitely a lot more than 1,000.

Very good first night though.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Hall of Fame tonight, Undertaker is being inducted so will definitely cry.

Wrestlemania tomorrow and Sunday night.

Went to Clash at the Castle last night.

Really enjoyable show with some decent matches. Felt it could have done with an extra sprinkling of star power to make it really memorable, or even just Triple H turning up for a minute to say “Are you ready?” But as a pure wrestling show it was very good, hope they continue to do more big shows over here, the crowd was incredible and I marked out pretty hard for Edge.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Rors was there also!

Watched it on the Network. It's a shame it ended how it did - the pop would've been incredible had they pulled the trigger.

[FootieJohn909]

who do you think will dethrone roman regins, I reckon it will be Jey

[McNamara That Ghost...]

I think they're holding out for the Rock on some pipe dream.

As that won't be happening, yeah Jey seems likely.

[FootieJohn909]

If ya smeelellllllllll... WHAT THE ROCK IS COOKIN
