    There's gotta be something with Ziggler. The crowd continues to love him, but Vince keeps his foot on the guy's neck like crazy. You'd think he figured out time travel and went back to take out Steph with Macho Man or something.

      Concussions.

      They're clearly gun shy about investing in guys with concussion issues. Ziggler & Fandango pushes were stopped dead and both are stuck firmly on the mid card treadmill.

        See, I thought that for a bit. But he's full-on jobber status and taking bumps all the while. There's no reason why he can't be an IC level babyface and not a total waste.....

          Ill stand by saying he fucked the wrong guys ex-girlfriend..

          As for Fandango, I just dont think he works in a main event role with that character. But no reason to be buried as deep as he has other than the health issues I suppose.

              I understand launching without bookmarking, but that should have been the first feature they added. If you start watching something that is On Demand, and then head into something that is live, it is a pain to fast forward back to where you were, especially if it's a prior PPV show.

                The Roku app has a bunch of these features already, including the bookmarking. Sometimes I even forget that I started something, and it picks up 20 minutes in.

                Roku has the recommendations, too. But they're broken and/or worked. It's always Slam City & Legend House episodes, or stuff like RAW Post Show. Clearly this isn't based on my watching habits, because aside from the first run stuff like Main Event & NXT, all I've been watching is old WCW shit and World Class.

                    om just before WrestleMania XXX until now, Vince McMahon has lost around $842 million of on-paper worth, with around $360 million of that being earlier this month. Vince is still worth around $700 million.

                    One person that has been associated with Vince for a while noted that the mainstream media and business publication coverage of how much money he lost and about how he's no longer a billionaire will drive him crazy. It was said that the actual loss of the stock money isn't going to bother him.
                    Who cares about the money I lost.. I just dont want people to know about it.

                        It actually makes a ton of sense when you think about it. It's only on paper worth. He was never going to sell the stock anyway. The headlines stating how much money he's "lost" directly influence his reputation, and of course, ego. And as we know, he's a man with an enormous ego.

                              What did we just see with El Torito? I think I'd rather be off the roster than involved in that.

                                Eva Marie is another level of bad in the ring.
