Apparently it’s been a month since I’ve done one of these. But there’s just been so much good stuff on the WWE Network to review!
Anyway, the Ric Flair “retirement” is looming and Dave is feeling melancholy about it, so let’s jump right in…

Thankfully this week is a bit calmer, although there’s always the stupidity of the NWA to depend on. And sadly, we do lead off with the death of a legend…

In news that will mean absolutely nothing to you, faithful reader, I am now writing these in Word first rather than typing them up directly in the blog editor, which means that I can now start saving them in the archives for those of you who have been kind enough to pay for access.

But first…

Well, great, now that Google Images has removed the “View Images” button, I might have to start using…ugh…BING for pulling meme images.
In other awful news, Hulk Hogan debuts for WCW this week.

Man, those clowns in WCW, always trying to turn it into a circus sideshow!
No, I mean literally.
