KO’s neck was so shot before surgery that running the ropes felt like climbing Everest, which tracks given how long he’s been eating mat bumps. Fightful →
Eric Bischoff defending the McMahon kid’s anthem performance is rich coming from a guy who built a whole company on nepotism. Ringside News →
The Miz calling Sol Ruca the best athlete in WWE is the kind of endorsement that actually means something when it comes from someone who’s faced everyone. Fightful →
Roman’s veiled shot at Seth about who stayed when things got hard is either brilliant storytelling or a shoot, and with these two you genuinely can’t tell anymore. Ringside News →
Kevin Owens missed his window with Cena and that’s the kind of thing that haunts a competitor—sometimes the rematch you want never comes. Fightful →
