Hey so I watched the WWE Evolution PPV and was pleasantly surprised. The Battle Royal was a perfectly there thing and Trish/Lita wrestled better than I was expecting, the main event did what it needed to do and the last five/seven minutes of Lynch/Flair sucked me in enough that I was able to forget that I was watching a WWE show. Well done, ladies.
Then the other house show in Arabialand happened and boy WWE did a whole lot to undo the goodwiill they got from me from WWE Evolution with THAT particular giant hunk of bullshit. The whole thing just left a bad taste in my mouth and I forsee some bad shit on the horizon for the WWE with this whole Middle Eastern deal. Like a slow-motion car wreck that you can't help but watch even though you want to look away. Sometimes there's things more important than chasing the almighty dollar but I guess WWE didn't get that particular memo.
Anyway, Evolution gets a big thumbs up from me and everything else can go eat my asshole crossways.

I'm 99% sure it's him. The only other two black non-wrestler employees they'd have backstage are Devon (who looks nothing like Virgil) and referee Darrick Moore.
I haven't read/heard anything about Virgil being in Saudi Arabia. I didn't think he was that tight with Hogan either (like Jimmy Hart, Brutus, Brian Knobbs et al are) well to the extent he'd travel overseas with him. I'm guessing it's one of the WWE security guys maybe.
Yea I know they are friends but I've never heard them being super close, like him and Jimmy & Bruti are. You'd think he'd have brought Beefcake over there ahead of Virg. Plus the dude looks younger than he is too
wow crown jewel what an event! where not a lot really happened other than a meaningless title was won buy a non wrestler & the part timer Vince has a boner for gets the title again, jesus wept

Did he say why? Moved over to hard drugs?
He said he's just really serious about his health now. He's on some new diet and decided to quit drinking. He's probably still taking painkillers for his neck.
