Sad. I really feel for him with having to do the podcast and then the biggest weekend of the year for his industry's coming up. Hope he takes some time next week.

I obv don't know JR but it seems like he didn't have to do anything but wants to do it. It's an escape.

Kind of figured the podcast could be a cathartic kind of thing. I obviously haven't listened yet. I do plan to listen to it with the glowing reviews on it.

This is what Jim Cornette said at least about JR's decision to come attend wrestling events this weekend, quoted JR himself as saying he'd rather be around friends right now than sit home alone.

TNA finally figured out what they were doing wrong. No Stephanie McMahon type character, so this week was all about Karen Angle returning and yelling at everybody. May have been the worst two hours of a wrestling show I've ever seen. Their top angle seems to involve Josh Matthews as a heel announcer too.

And as horrible as I feel for JR, the cat thing is just strange. How did the cat know she died? I'm sure they've gone on vacation for days or weeks at a time. Maybe he just forgot to feed him.

Guess that's why I just lost two cats in the last year each under 11 years old. My health has been an issue too and I actually understand that, but she wasn't in bad health. It was an injury from an accident. How would the cat even know she just wasn't on vactaion?

It isn't much different than a dog travelling across the country to get back to an owner. Sometimes they know more than we think.

Da Meltz reporting a small change at WM. Apparently Vince is changing the main event from Brock/Bill to The Battle Of The Yard.

Sad that the most I'm looking forward to IRT Mania is the crowd crapping all over the coronation of the Yard Champion Roman Reigns

Same, actually. I don't see a great match happening on the main card. I can't believe that the only CW match is on the preshow especially after Neville's performances on ppv so far this year. I still have some high expectations of that match but once it's over, there's just nothing I care about. I'm looking forward to the HoF more than the main WM card.

Well there's only two reasons for that- 1) He wants Reigns going over Taker as a "face" to get **** on the least possible or 2) He wants Reigns heel turn to end the night so it's most memorable. Hopefully it's the latter!

isnt your 3 and 4 the same as geoffs 1? I assume the reason it would get **** on the least possible (1) would be because of (3 and or 4)

I suppose. I took it a little bit different than you, obviously.

I don't know if you read the same article as I did, but they kind of hinted he would be calling taker/reigns. I would hope they wouldn't waste JR on that.
