Good Luck, Shango 

And ignore those who only show up to track a loss. Some of us still appreciate your contributions

Addition by subtraction getting rid of Headley. Gleyber will get the call and, hopefully, they look at a reunion with Eduardo Nunez. If not, Andujar would be nice (although he lacks on the defensive end). So much to look forward to with this team. The only downside is stacking those right handed bats.

And don't even start getting me giddy with a potential trade for a SP and the possible conversion of Chad Green and emergence of Chance Adams. 

But as for Ozuna...great get by the Cardinals. Stud player. And the fact they didn't have to give up Kelly or Flaherty is even better. Contract-wise, far better bang for your buck than Stanton in terms of all the tools. Cardinals are an organization that teams should take notes from. Very well run 

Giancarlo Stanton, Dee Gordon, Marcel Ozuna...Not a single Top 100 prospect in return. Pathetic. I hope nobody goes to their games and they're forced to move the team. Such a joke.

On a side note...what the fuckkk has this site come to? Geesh. I have to make sure I'm not a robot every time I post?

Aaron Judge in September...

.311 BA
1.352 OPS (Highest of any month by 0.185)
15 Homers (Highest of any month by 5)
32 RBIs (Highest of any month by 7)
.889 SLG (Highest of any month by 0.139)

I think it's safe to say he found himself after taking some time off with the shoulder injury he got surgery for this offseason.

As for Raw…I loved that. I loved the beginning with Vince and the crowd singing his theme. However, letting Shane run Raw (even for a night) after all the build up and after the loss kinda made everything pointless. But if that means more Shane then I really don’t care.

I’m wondering if the Wyatts turned face last night or what? Obviously attacking the League of Nations would indicate that but I wonder if this is just a heel on heel feud or an official face turn. The crowd was awesome during the beat down, though.

Apollo Crews is awesome. End of story.

When I see Baron Corbin, I see a dark heel in him like DDP when he debuted as the stalker of Taker’s wife. I think he could be that kind of character. Having him in a feud with Ziggler to start works for him.

I understand not keeping the title on Ryder but I just HATE Miz. He’s confident but I feel like he’s horrible on the mic. And I get them repaying Miz because he does so much for them outside of the ring but damn…I just can’t stand him. Cool spot to bring back Maryese but Miz winning actually made that worse.

Charlotte seemed genuine in her promo, so I won’t hate on it too much, but it was still pretty brutal. Don’t stop a sing with the crowd who is clearly trying to bring on Bailey. So disappointed that she didn’t get the call up. I understand a Natty v Charlotte (Hart v Flair) storyline but it was a perfect time to call up Bailey. The crowd woulda started the whole “Heyyyyyy, Heyy Bailey, ooh, ahh. I wanna knooooooow, if you’ll be my girl” chant that the European crowd came up with.

I geeked out when Enzo and Cass debuted. Perfect feud to start them off with, imo, with the Dudleys. Enzo is Road Dogg and Cass is Billy Gunn and I love that. They could be faces or heels and still have the crowd do their promos for them and that’s so awesome about those kind of characters. And a sidenote…Bubba’s reactions the entire time were classic.

Happy to see Cesaro back and ecstatic to see AJ Styles get a title shot so quickly but I’m also confused by it because if Reigns is supposed to be a face, AJ Styles being his first opponent is NOT going to help that push. But if Reigns is playing a rebel character then I guess it doesn’t matter.

I agree with Sosa. The street fight was brutal and Lesnar suplexed himself onto the chairs. Really? That had so much potential and nothing happened.

With that said...I really loved WM. The ladder match was amazing, as was the women's match and the new title is really cool, imo, and I'm so happy they moved passed the "Divas" crap. The League of Nationals v New Day match was brutal but everything the League of Nations does is brutal. I understand putting them over for given it wasn’t a title match and New Day won on Raw the next night and it was all repayed to us with HBK, Foley and Austin. Nostalgic moments like that is what I live for. And let me just say that Rusev sold the Stunner better than anyone since The Rock. Woods did a good job as well.

I also agree with Scal about Reigns. The reaction immediately after he won wasn’t bad at all. Once he celebrated you could hear more boos but it could have been worse. The Raw crowd was a lot harder on him but I really liked his promo on Raw. At first I was wondering what the hell he was doing but then he said “I’m not a bad guy…..and I’m not a good guy. I’m THE guy.” I can totally go with that rebel persona for him.

The Rock’s promo was great. His shots on the Wyatts were awesome but I loved Bray’s promo as well. I thought the 6 second win was corny but I got hyped when he said he was ready for a WM MATCH because that was never expected. I also have to say that Cena got a huge pop as well. He got the Kurt Angle treatment and the crowd singing “John Cena Suuuuuucks” to his theme song seemed to be more out of respect.

I can’t say the Shane v Taker match was great but it was all made worth it when he jumped off the cage (as to a lesser extent when he did coast to coast). I loved that. That’s really all I wanted to see happen.
