If only there were a schedule that could clue us into when Jericho's busy.

Some of Jericho's best work was around Slamboree 1998 (when he was feuding with Dean Malenko). His introductions of the other competitors in that battle royal was fucking hilarious.

Watching a replay of Undertakers last match, after not watching any wrestling for 3 or 4 years (outside of an occasional old school match on youtubes) was pretty sad (no offense deadman at all!). Not everyone can walk away like Macho Man did and stay away.

Was Undertaker pretty much the last of the originally WWE hayday guys still wrestling in the big spot light? He started right around the time Andre was hangen it up. I'm sure theres a few on the indie circuits still lacing them up? But yeah I havnt followed any wrestling in years. Its amazing him and Sting were able to keep going as long as they did (and still look pretty good doing it)

Yes, Triple H is now the veteran active wrestler of the company. The Undertaker had an amazing career.

At first glance I was like "man, they really porked Smackdown in this shakeup thing" but then I thought about it and realized Smackdown has like no "Vince guys" left now, it's almost exclusively internet darlings on there. Basically, it's a show that has no choice but to build around AJ Styles and push Owens and Sami Zayn, which is awesome.

Imagine the pop if nobody knew if New Day was for sure going to SD and coming back from commercial we just hear Big E start in on their entrance. Instead they get a graphic of a really old picture of them announcing it

I'm not defending the choice, they still should have had them come out, but I'm guessing they didnt want to "debut" them without Kofi.

They were in Boston. Give Kofi a light up wheelchair and ham it up!

I know, that's what I would have done. They just started letting him acknowledge that he is from Boston, too.

My brother went to Smackdown last night and is still reeling from Nakamura's entrance. He's been doing Raw/Smackdown whenever they're in town for five years or so and said no one's been over like him.

I have no idea, but Boston has a pretty good contingent in WWE right now, better than they have in the past. Kofi, Sasha, Ciampa, and then Cena, Carmella, HHH and a couple more guys in NXT if you want to include the whole Boston area.

I wasn't entirely positive it was a joke and didn't want to risk it. My bad.
