We can only hope that instead of a headband, he'll have a cowboy hat headband strapped to his noggin.
Kobe Bryant was asked who he feels is the toughest opponent to guard in the NBA. Instead of picking OKC's Kevin Durant, Bryant went with Portland’s Brandon Roy.

"Roy 365 days, seven days a week. Roy has no weaknesses in his game."

Complete throwaway show. Add in the disgusting blood money and it's a non starter. Won't watch. Don't care about men in their fifties that can't let it go.

Dolph beat Kurt? Why?

Kurt looked like he can still go, maybe not go as in ironman matches, but he looks good.

So was this show as bad as the recap makes it sound? Because holy hell the recap makes it sound bad. I was outright laughing at some of the push notifications to my phone, like Brock winning the Universal Title again and Shane winning the Best in the World tournament.
