In possibly the biggest blunder among a sea of Tony Khan booking blunders, AEW silver-plattered Danhausen to WWE the way Al Davis gave away Randy Moss. Like Moss, Danhausen immediately went on to become a main character in the biggest mainstream sports story of the year🦷🏀
Tonight's AEW Forbidden Door PPV matches will be graded as...
LOL jk, I'm not sitting home in sunny California and watching 6 hours of meaningless wrestleslop dominated by uninteresting whites who are increasingly interchangeable. It's summer in Inglewood, I'm goin' Venice ⛱️ ✌🏾
Sami Zayn won. What a beautiful moment. The WWE Title has converted to Islam for the next month, which means it can't eat pork and it doesn't understand why America keeps giving all this money to Israel🇸🇦🇸🇾

This "last real good guy" gimmick is a world championship-caliber gimmick. WWE should let Sami cook for a while. Cody vs. Punk doesn't need a title. The big story here is the fall from grace for Gunther, who went from retiring Mount Rushmore to a baffling losing streak.
Sami vs. Cody and Gunther as an African King: Askia the Great (10/10)
The SECOND Sami walked out wearing a Saudi Thwab, I knew they weren't gonna have that brother lose in Saudi with that type of fanfare.
Congratulations Sami Zayn 👏🏾👏🏾 #WWENOC

Cole's audio was permanently taken out after that table bump, forcing Corey Graves to hand over his headset. I'm surprised this doesn't happen more after table spots.
Jade Cargill vs. Tiffany Stratton as an African King: Jean-Bédel Bokassa (5/10)
Way too much interference and WWE is getting too comfortable beating Jade.

Trick Williams vs. Ricky Saints as an African King: Mobutu Sese Seko of the DRC (6/10)
Better days lie ahead for Trick & Ricky. They had the tough task of following a weapons-filled cage match with a straight-up singles match, & it fell flat.

Seth Rollins vs. Bron Breakker as an African King: Mansa Musa of the Mali Empire (8/10)
Bron Breakker has the perfect facials for an enraged man who has been bloodied. Quite surprised that he lost. Looks like WWE is setting up Rollins v. Reigns.

Iyo Sky vs. Liv Morgan as an African King: Shaka Zulu of the Zulu Kingdom (9/10)
Danhausen's curse remains undefeated in WWE. Liv and Iyo will run it back at #SummerSlam, and I fully expect the curse to follow her to Minnesota.

KING OBA!
With two more singles championship PLE matches featuring Black talent yet to go.
Nobody in the entire world of wrestling is booking Black talent better than WWE. BIG difference between Tweeting about Juneteenth and booking like it's Juneteenth❤️💛💚 #WWENOC
Oba Femi vs. Jey Uso as an African King: The Black Pharaohs of Egypt (10/10)
All that fantasy booking y'all did to cost Oba the King of the Ring. STFU Janice. Just watch the show and tweet sweet nothings into Beyonce's internet, you have no idea what you're talking about. #WWE
Dynamite Dave tried to set up a meeting with Nielsen. Have no doubt, this man would Napalm a Vietnamese village to find a way to beef up Tony's ratings. 😆
Holy shit, NXT is already back to beating the sh!t out of Dynamite and they ain't even fully reloaded yet 😂
All that money just to lose in total viewership AND 18-49 to developmental (again), that's crazy.
