Catching up with this before I watch the rumble and I still believe they need to stop giving Bobby a microphone.

I could watch Imperium and Legado wrestle for hours

Imperium won

I fucking hope they won't have Braun bury another team and let them wrestle the Usos

Rey's gut shows me the Wellness policy still in effect.....he was jacked and not wearing singlets when he was not in WWE.

Really Deezy?

As The WWE's Wellness Policy was implemented in 2006 and aims to promote the health and well-being of WWE performers. It includes drug testing, cardiovascular testing, concussion testing, and more. The policy has been updated over the years to address new concerns and improve its effectiveness. Regarding the statement "he was jacked and not wearing singlets when he was not in WWE," it is unclear who you are referring to as "he." If you are referring to Rey Mysterio, it is true that he has appeared more muscular and has not always worn singlets outside of WWE. However, it is important to note that wrestlers may have different training regimens and attire preferences outside of the WWE.
