There going to be something missing from that one obviously.

 

[Kiffy Lube]

That Rey doc was nice still with his story that should have been 3 hours. I wanna hear about you almost gettin' stabbed outside Arena Mexico in great detail.

 

[Finishline]

I'm upset. Peacock needs to have this content.

Ever since the WWE Network ended and merged into a section on Peacock, the content has been lackluster and almost nonexistent. Except maybe a new episode of the Broken Skull Sessions every month (if that). There's virtually nothing being added to the library.

Nobody gives a frick about watching A&E

 

[Deezy]

No one gives a frick...except the company getting paid by A&E for them to air these.
