Melina is a piece of trash. Her being a trash person aside, I don't see any scenario where she fits in with 2020 WWE. This is the women's wrestling equivalent of Bob Cousy returning in the late '60s as a player coach for the Cincinnati Royals. Her style is just going to seem instantly outdated.

I've been on a sabbatical from WWE (and modern wrestling in general) since MITB, although I've looked at a few clips here and there. Watched last week's Smackdown on Hulu...and the sabbatical continues, heh. Made it through the whole show, but it wasn't worth the time at all.

Names of the male Retribution members revealed so far are Mace, Slapjack, and T-Bone.

Seems like characters in a parody of WWE made by someone that doesn't like wrestling

It's funny cause wasn't Dijak(ovic)'s NXT character originally supposed to be an alt right guy and now he's Antifa!?

Got to say my dream of Dijak Vs Keith Lee taking their match from touring the indys to WrestleMania main event is slipping away...

Hour 3 of Raw dipped to 1.5 million. Next week is also probably the game of the year so the ratings will crater much worse.

"Cowboy" James Storm claims he was set to debut in WWE after Wrestlemania but Covid halted those plans. Don't know where he would fit in with the company other than the obvious Beer Money reunion.

Probably as a coach or just another person to hang out in catering. It's really amazing at this point to see how wrestlers still want to work there. I get that for many it's a good pay check, and some still dream of working there, but when even fans know how awful of a workplace it can be, they still want to be there. Wrestlers know they won't be pushed, there's little positive about being there. But hey, get that money to sit around doing nothing.

It's like how the Dallas Cowboys are for the NFL and the New York Knicks are for the NBA, no matter how many years in a row they haven't won diddly, WWE is still a name in the sport(s entertainment). And idea of being a star there (however far-fetched) still feels like it means more than the idea of being a star for the Jacksonville Jaguars ;)

In news that is sure to perk UP a lot of interest. A former WWE superstar has joined OnlyFans.
