    So Meltzer is teasing something HUGE for tonight.

    https://twitter.com/davemeltzerWON/status/601118122075037697



    I wonder if it's even NXT related, or if it's some random MMA nonsense.

    ReplyDelete
  10. Greatest Book of The Old Testament?

    After Ecclesiastes, nothing even deserves second place.

    ReplyDelete
  11. It's a video game based on a tv show based on a book.

    ReplyDelete
  12. You can't really call anything nonsense in comparison to Sportz Entertainment.

    ReplyDelete
  13. I still feel we missed out by not casting Bryan Cranston as Lex Luthor.

    ReplyDelete
  14. Wonder if he was in full makeup at the time.

    ReplyDelete
  15. So, um... bein' inconvenienced, amirite?

    ReplyDelete
  16. cabspaintedyellowMay 20, 2015 at 5:31 PM

    ReplyDelete
  23. So I've decided that if I'm still around to get that $2000 bonus, I'm going to buy a new laptop, and if not, then I'm moving to Plano, TX.

    ReplyDelete
  24. How long until Vince makes Renee Young upgrade to Double Ds

    Was he the one who did the "drunk texting" gimmick?

    ReplyDelete
  30. Whoa, that was super cheesy.

    ReplyDelete
  31. Um... that shit just writes itself. Would have been incredible.

    ReplyDelete
  32. Owens should beat Byron's ass for that remark.

    ReplyDelete
  34. R.O.C.K. in the U.S.A.May 20, 2015 at 5:33 PM

    Corey Graves' jacket is pissing me off.

    ReplyDelete
  35. Yes. It was horrible

    ReplyDelete
  36. What do you mean, "People like Byron"?!

    ReplyDelete
  37. Wait, has the NXT show started already? I thought it wasn't till the top of the hour.

    ReplyDelete
  38. Hi Becky Lynch

    ReplyDelete
  39. Pre show

    ReplyDelete
  44. I like the texture. Not a fan of the color. It's look good in gray.

    ReplyDelete
  45. Was the implication there that Kevin Owens beat up Itami?

    ReplyDelete
  46. cabspaintedyellowMay 20, 2015 at 5:35 PM

    Just the pre-cum.

    ReplyDelete

    The peach color with the black pocket square is what's gathering my ire.

    ReplyDelete
  52. The tip-off show.

    ReplyDelete
  53. I once saw them converse about if safe sex was "really" necessary or if you were fine to go "raw dog".

    ReplyDelete
  54. The only guy that could make that work is Mark Henry.

    ReplyDelete
  55. The hard sell.

    ReplyDelete
  56. It has begun https://twitter.com/TheReal_Virgil

    ReplyDelete
  57. Vince is scared of finger guns. Fact.

    ReplyDelete
  58. He was because he met him right before he went out for his match.

    ReplyDelete
  59. So, HHH said Itami would be 'represented' in the 3 way. And the very first thing on the show is announcing it is a singles match now.

    ReplyDelete
  60. Or old school heel Vince. He loved a nice salmon sport coat.

    ReplyDelete
  61. Really, would any of us tell Marl otherwise. Wigs would be split.

    ReplyDelete
  62. R.O.C.K. in the U.S.A.May 20, 2015 at 5:38 PM

    ReplyDelete
  63. I'll leave it to your imagination what they decided was the answer.

    ReplyDelete
  64. Wait, he's not homeless?

    ReplyDelete
  65. NXT warrants a pre show?

    ReplyDelete
  66. Leviticus.

    Only because if I see people quoting Leviticus as a primer on morality, it helps me determine that they are a total fucking nut job,

    ReplyDelete
  67. cabspaintedyellowMay 20, 2015 at 5:38 PM

    ReplyDelete
  70. R.O.C.K. in the U.S.A.May 20, 2015 at 5:39 PM

    Six people apparently paid him.

    ReplyDelete
  71. Was it the Reddit guy?

    ReplyDelete
  72. It wouldn't be hard to hide Joe before the event if they didn't want to tip their hand, so I'd buy it.

    ReplyDelete
  73. http://deadspin.com/jamie-foxxs-doc-rivers-impression-is-perfect-1705879008

    His national anthem at Mayweather/Pacquiao was horrible, but Jamie Foxx's John Legend and Doc Rivers impressions are SPOT on.

    ReplyDelete
  74. Nice video package for the women's match. I approve.

    ReplyDelete
  75. Mets was thrown out, but where one falls...another will rise

    I eagerly await this new guys eventual meltdown

    ReplyDelete
  76. There appears to be a ghost behind Saxton.

    ReplyDelete
  77. ....is it safe?

    ReplyDelete
  78. This video package is better than most on the main show for the men.

    ReplyDelete
  79. Minor point and likely means nothing, but I'm curious what Joe's music would be.

    ReplyDelete
  80. I like how we've woven the dancing jigging crap into Becky's story. Plus she is ridiculously hot.

    ReplyDelete
  81. It's Tazz. The mood is about to change for old Byron.

    ReplyDelete
  82. When we say Us, you say O

    ReplyDelete
  83. R.O.C.K. in the U.S.A.May 20, 2015 at 5:43 PM

    Why are we getting a stat box on a pre-show announcer?

    ReplyDelete
  84. If it's Taz he's standing on about 3 apple boxes.

    ReplyDelete
  85. Damn did Dusty decide to lose a lot of weight or is he really sick... https://twitter.com/RealKingRegal/status/601170566029123585

    ReplyDelete
  86. I love Maffew's Oompa Loompa intro for Taz on Botchamania.

    ReplyDelete
  87. We are only a couple shows away from Renee Young just being topless.

    ReplyDelete
  88. It's like Corey Graves sees all the Suicide Squad Joker pics and then acts accordingly.

    ReplyDelete
  89. Didn't he get a gastric band recently?

    ReplyDelete
  90. I approve of Renee's attire.

    ReplyDelete
  91. And Twitter deletes his account after 2 hours. LOL

    ReplyDelete
  92. R.O.C.K. in the U.S.A.May 20, 2015 at 5:44 PM

    They probably hid him under that ghost behind Byron.

    ReplyDelete
  93. I just got an email with the subject line "Legit free money 4 u"... I'm glad it added the word legit otherwise I would've been concerned this wasn't on the up and up.

    ReplyDelete
  94. I really hope you're right about this.

    ReplyDelete
  95. I remember his last appearance on Raw, the live thread INSTANTLY went to "Show 75 New Comments" and all of them were "Does Dusty have something? Is he dying?"

    ReplyDelete
  96. Decent looking chick next to this dude.

    ReplyDelete
  97. Blod of Doom.Assemble!

    ReplyDelete
  98. Surprised they spelled everything somewhat correctly.

    ReplyDelete
  99. Probably just lost weight. He's like 70. At a certain point, I think you just start to decline.

    ReplyDelete
  100. This has the feel of a In Your House preshow from 95. I like it.

    ReplyDelete
  101. The 4 would be my selling point.

    ReplyDelete
  102. Also - Shocked Undertaker Guy, you have been replaced by Stereotypical Neckbeard Guy booing at Owens' victory in that promo package.

    ReplyDelete
  103. And keep in mind Dusty is a WRESTLER at 70.


    That's like 120 in normal person years.

    ReplyDelete
  104. R.O.C.K. in the U.S.A.May 20, 2015 at 5:45 PM

    "REAL VIRGIL! FOLLOW ME BITCH!"

    ReplyDelete

    ITS TAZZ!

    ReplyDelete
  107. R.O.C.K. in the U.S.A.May 20, 2015 at 5:46 PM

    ReplyDelete
  108. Art Macklin, Man Without FearMay 20, 2015 at 5:46 PM

    ReplyDelete
  111. Oh snap I just wrote this at the top. Touche!

    ReplyDelete
  112. Rhyno is in NXT?

    ReplyDelete
  113. Not only is Saxton being haunted by a ghost, but there's also a bald Bray Wyatt on his other shoulder.

    ReplyDelete
  114. That is a large large man in a large large Balor Club shirt.

    ReplyDelete
  115. I hope they call him SoJo because that's terrible.

    ReplyDelete
  116. That guy has Kevin Kelly's voice almost down pat.

    ReplyDelete
  117. R.O.C.K. in the U.S.A.May 20, 2015 at 5:48 PM

    WHAT A LOVELY DAY!

    ReplyDelete
  123. So why can't he go by Samoa Joe again?

    ReplyDelete
  124. I feel like Stereotypical Neckbeard Guy might be about 70% of the NXT crowd.

    ReplyDelete
  125. Art Macklin, Man Without FearMay 20, 2015 at 5:49 PM

    Sounds so right.

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete
  132. Is Dubstep Cowboys these guys' real name, or just a smartass internet thing? Cause it's perfect.

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete
  140. "Me too! Look at meeeeeee!"

    ReplyDelete
  141. Eric Bischoff, Garret Bischoff, and Jason Hervey are suing TNA for $114,000. If TNA loses this lawsuit, do they officially file bankruptcy?

    ReplyDelete
  146. Joey Joe Joe Shabbado

    ReplyDelete
  147. Jesus. They won't be able to pay anyone until 2023!

    ReplyDelete
  148. Of course you'll have to kill him afterwards to protect your identity.

    ReplyDelete
  149. Is TNA even worth that much?

    I'm kind of hoping not, because it would be awesome to see TNA end up on Judge Judy.

    ReplyDelete
  150. There are a few I'd trust, he and you included

    ReplyDelete
  151. R.O.C.K. in the U.S.A.May 20, 2015 at 5:52 PM

    ReplyDelete
  155. Or, on Family Feud. Playing for the boys payouts.

    ReplyDelete
  156. It must be the mics or something because everyone of these guys sounds like Daffy Duck out there.

    ReplyDelete
  157. I like that Vince legitimate hates juniors.

    ReplyDelete
  158. Groucho Dr. Facts MarxMay 20, 2015 at 5:53 PM

    So does TNA fold by the summer and everyone migrates to GFW sans Dixie?

    ReplyDelete
  159. Art Macklin, Man Without FearMay 20, 2015 at 5:53 PM

    If your trust list involves Jobber then you're doing it wrong motherfucker.

    ReplyDelete
  160. Why are they suing? Breach of contract.

    http://411mania.com/wrestling/eric-bischoff-sues-tna-for-breach-of-contract/

    ReplyDelete
  161. That's the worst name I ever heard.

    ReplyDelete
  162. And the lawsuit could also delay pay as well.

    ReplyDelete
  163. I bet Art complains that you didn't mention him.

    ReplyDelete
  164. *runs out crying*

    "Hey! It's Joey Joe Joe!"

    ReplyDelete
  165. From the sound of things, TNA might fold by the time the next Observer goes to press

    ReplyDelete
  166. Why would I complain about something I said?

    ReplyDelete
  167. cabspaintedyellowMay 20, 2015 at 5:54 PM

    There are few things on TV more infuriating when someone gets an obvious puzzle on Wheel of Fortune wrong.

    ReplyDelete
  168. The flurry episode of Entourage is one of the best episodes of all time.

    ReplyDelete
  169. I think WWE will take a couple.


    I could see them take another look at Bram and ECIII

    ReplyDelete
  177. Cena's half of that promo was awesome as well.

    ReplyDelete
  178. Cavs are gonna do it

    ReplyDelete
  179. There's a disconnect between their characters on RAW and whenever Hunter or Steph show up on NXT

    ReplyDelete
  180. IT ALL MAKES SENSE NOW!

    ReplyDelete
  181. That needs a better name than "pop up powerbomb." Hmm.
