Oh sorry I knew that. Was thinking why not tape the two episodes in another day so people (fans/wrestlers) won't be too exhausted.

That would make way too much sense.

If you guys had to rank the upcoming call ups on who will be most successful, how would you rank them?

For me,

1. Lars Sullivan - Far and away the best prospect of the bunch. Good big man worker and can really talk.

2. Nikki Cross - There aren't many unique characters in the women's division so she'll stand out.

3. Heavy Machinery - I think this is one of those cases where they didn't have much success in NXT but will be more successful the main roster. Otis is hilarious and I think he'll really catch on with live crowds. Plus they really need more face tag teams.

4. Lacey Evans - She's talented and can talk. She does a good job of getting heel heat. But there's others just like her in the women's division.

5. EC3 - He's good on the mic but I just don't want to see him wrestle. Reminds me of Bobby Roode, and we've seen how the main roster has treated him, nothing more than a mid carder.

I think EC3 has a better shot than Roode based on looks alone. EC3 looks like a Vince McMahon wet dream. Roode just looks like Triple H if he stopped taking steroids. Just a dude.

Since the writers only care about title feuds now that PPVs are dual branded , there are only 4-6 people on each brand really worth a damn now. Notice how RAW was actually competitive with the previous year from January to April. From May onward is when the trouble started.

Yeah that's a good point and a big reason why so many mid carders and NXT call-ups have been directionless
and lost in the shuffle.

EC3 is the slam dunk pick imo for who will have the most main roster success. Great look and personality, so so worker.

It would kind of be cool if Roode and EC3 formed a heel team. I don't much care for Roode and Gable but I'd be interested in the team I mentioned.

Pat McAfee signed a multi year deal with WWE, I'd be willing to bet the Fox SmackDown announce team will be Daniel Courmier, Mauro Ranallo, and Pat McAfee.

He made the Takeover pre-shows he appeared on actually watchable, so I'm all for it.

So Gallows and Anderson got a new web series called, "Botch Club". Anyone else smell a push? You know, like they did with Total Bellas and Up Up Down Down?

I have the DDP yoga program on DVD, I've been meaning to start it for so many months. This is great inspiration and motivation.

I kind of wish WWE hired James Storm just to reform Beer Money in the WWE.

Also EC3 and Maverick should absolutely have some kind of program or Maverick should be EC3's manager.

I was just thinking about where James Storm was at yesterday last I heard he was in ICW in Scotland. Seems WWE
is holding a grudge for him resigning with Impact a few years back when they were gonna give him a big push and
originally give him AJ Styles theme.

A couple sites have been reporting that Kenny Omega will be meeting with WWE soon to discuss possibly signing. None of the big name reporters have said anything yet so it could be bs.
