It's better than the Club. I'll take it.

I'm only okay with it bc I couldn't make that Arrested Development joke about The Club and this was made for it

 

[Kross Rhodes]

I'm OK with it because it's not The Club and because The O.C. was a great TV show.

I'll be honest the only reason I even know what that show is was bc of the Arrested Development joke that I won't let die with this new stable name

It wasn't until just now I realized the joke was actually about him not liking the name O.C. as I just Googled it.

I'm not familiar enough with it to have got that the first time.

I thought you legit didn't like the name and was using an unrelated Arrested Development meme.

The show is great, though. The O.C. that is.

I haven't even had time to consider if I like the name bc every time I hear anyone say it I automatically hear Jason Bateman say "don't call it that" But yeah the joke was bc apparently the guys running the show really didn't like The OC so they'd work in people calling Orange County "The OC" and he'd say it, then it got more ridiculous when they just using random things to make an OC acronym, shit was great

So the preview has been updated AGAIN and now it's just Kofi/AJ instead of the 6-man match Bliss/Nikki vs Ember/Bayley is also confirmed, but according to our boy Meltzer, Vince called for a full rewrite today so that's why we got these last minute changes.

In case anyone was confused, Eric Bischoff settled into Stamford last week. This is his first 100% controlled SmackDown.

I love WCW to death, but it was a signature of his to change the format up to start time.

No offense, Eric, but chill. OC vs New Day would have been goat. Put it back. Please.

He'll do it for next week tbh.

Still could have been Vince that changed that. For all we know it was Bischoff's idea to do the 6-man, but also for all wnow it could have been the opposite lol

 

[Deezy]

The New Day vs McIntyre/Elias match looks to have been canned in favor a a champions vs champions 6-man tag match vs The New Day and Styles & friends

Rewrites.

 

[Vegeta]

No Shane? The show already peaking.

 

[Chris]

No Shane

 

[Kross Rhodes]

No Shane? Dare I say the Eric is a good God?
