Did they leave Scarlett behind at NXT? Thought for sure they'd bring them in together, but……Vince gonna be Vince.

Read that a bunch of NXT Talent is very "Disappointed" after jobbing to Kross to get him over, then losing his first match like that. I guess it could be the beginning of a longer feud with Jeff Hardy seeing as how he used the ropes for the pin. We'll see.

Starting to wonder why any of the Top talent at NXT really want to get the call up. Keith Lee was completely over, then they call him up, change his music & gimmick, and he loses constantly. Give him a break, bring him back, and do it all over again.

SMH.

I think that's why Adam Cole is still down there. He doesn't want to become a forgettable jobber.

I´m not a fan at all of Karrion Kross but what happened on RAW was so stupid.
Say what you want about Kross but he is the undefeated NxT Champion.
He came on RAW with the belt actually. And not only he didn´t have Scarlett with him, they have him job for his debuts on RAW to Jeff Hardy in 2 minutes.
Who ´s gonna care about NxT after that? Who´s gonna watch NxT tuesday night on Usa Networks?
The problem is not even Kross. It would have been the same if Cole or Gargano were champion.
They just had the champion of their third brand job against someone who lost on Main Event against one of Jinder´s goons.

FWIW


AEW reportedly. But I have a hard time believing it as AEW have been pretty good at keeping surprises secret and I doubt they would want this to get out. But given they are running a PPV in Chicago in 6 weeks, makes sense for Punk rumors to surface again

It's just a matter of time until he comes back for one last run and pay day. 2 years ago I would've said 0 chance in AEW. But TK is making money with AEW and can afford a 1 year contract for him. And there's no doubt that Punk rather wrestle in AEW, but money is gonna be the main factor.

The Khans can afford anyone, they own 2 sports franchises so money won't be much of an issue with AEW.

But I'll believe in a Punk return if and when it ever happens. I don't trust rumors about him signing.

Ya I don't really know the money situation with TK. Don't know how much he actually owns in those teams and how much is his own money for AEW, or does his dad just give him what he needs? If it's the way you say it is, then no doubt they have more then Vince.

Shahid on Tony and AEW :

"I absolutely didn't think this was a good idea," the elder Khan says. "But I told Tony, 'Look, when I'm dead and gone, I'm going to be leaving you and your sister a lot of money. Why don't you blow some of that while I'm alive?'"

After seeing his son not only get a TV deal for AEW but a second TV show and an extension to that TV deal... he has to know his kid is definitely succeeding with his venture.

I wish I had a rich dad like Tony who would want me to spend his moneys.

Rebel or Reba is so damn hot.

Pretty f**king cool. My grandpa has done well for himself and every Christmas gives us a nice check. His saying is he'd rather see our smiles now then get it when he's dead.
