3) Why WWE Scripted The Priest To Get Tackled On RAW
On RAW this past week, a weird moment happened where the priest for the next segment was tackled by WWE security. It was later reported that this was all a part of the script.
So why would WWE script something like that? Here is what Dave Meltzer in the latest Wrestling Observer Newsletter had to say:
People figured security screwed up on live TV and thought he was a fan. It was actually all part of the show. It was a way to get people talking by doing something out of the box with the idea anything can happen on the show and they did it right before a planned commercial break with the idea of hooking people to not switch channels during the break by having people see something they thought they weren’t supposed to see.
My Take:
- This moment definitely got people talking. I actually think it was a smart move by WWE because everyone thought that a fan jumped into the ring. This kept me glued to the screen for the next segment.
2) Luke Harper’s Next Move After WWE
Luke Harper was released by WWE a few months ago. The speculation right now is that Harper is going to be heading to AEW.
Here is a photo of Harper and AEW star, Sammy Guevara, together at a recent hockey game:
My Take:
- I have always been a big fan of Harper and I think it would be a major pick-up for AEW. I hope that he proves Vince McMahon and a lot of other people wrong.
