For the #Raw edition of loved/hated, I loved Lesnar falling on his ass & hated the opening segment dragging out to follow up with a lot of nothing.

Idk if he was already planned for the C2, but I’m glad Roddy is in it.

Paragon is having a terrible year. If Roddy wasn’t going to be in C2, he should take KOR’s spot.

The C2 lineup is excellent. I had hoped Juice would be in it after getting injured last year. I also really wanted Ace to be in it.

This episode of Raw had a little person dressed as Cena, followed by a match featuring a wrestler named in Speaking Out that was then followed by a shot of Lesnar backstage.

"Collecting that experience" is an incredible euphemism for "Asking a guy about the fact that more than a dozen women accused him of sexual misconduct"

_He's_ gone through an experience?
Nick Underhill @nick_underhill · 16m Moore on Justin Tucker’s tryout: “He’s been one of their leaders for an extended period of time on a very successful team. Obviously, there’s been some stuff that’s been unfortunate. He’s gone through an experience and I think it’s about collecting what that experience was."

Haven’t had a chance to fully process the main event & postmatch stuff, but I’m still super annoyed that Hangman defended his title against two champions, one of them on consecutive PPVs. He’s over AF & deserved more than what he got.

This one means a lot to me.
I spent time talking with advocates, performers, and promoters about issues wrestling doesn’t talk about enough — safety, awareness, and accountability.

Professional wrestling has always been a house of mirrors— where reality twists into performance. But when spectacle collides with real-world abuse, the reflection cracks.
