Funny how y'all will say Moné isn't a good promo,but fail to mention her backstage TALKING segment on Collison which was very good. Also, for others who you all consider not that great of a promo you never always mention it like you do with her. Why is that? Pretend like she 💩 bed every time out when that's far from the truth. Once you and other pundits label someone a certain thing y'all just can't stop hammering it down. She had a awesome in ring talking seg w Hayter and few others in AEW.
Twan Mack
1:40:00 why do they keep breaking up these 'Fashions' like the 'Hurt Lock' fashions. I think he means factions & Hurt Business. Unexpected comedy gold LOL
Michael Bacsardi
way too many commercials. i couldn't make it through
Kamaras Krisztian
wow..the riho match a bit overpriced..they were FINE. nothing more,nothing less. riho herself shouldnt be on this stage because she is just not good enough. her opponent was fine but she is nothing special either.when you glorify mediocriity you doing a real disservice .
Christopher C. Quevedo
The one podcaster should make the effort to pronounce Cejudo's last name correctly. The 'j' is an 'h' sound not a 'g'. If his job is literally to talk, he could make a basic effort to pronounce correctly. The other host does. It sounds ignorant as literally NO media or UFC programming says 'Cegudo'. It makes this guy sound ignorant and oblivious to his mispronunciation.
