All my friends, I'm from what culture here and given that we are halfway through 2023,

which is kind of terrifying, I thought I would turn to the finger of power and give the

good bits an up and the bad bits a down, for everything that world wrestling entertainment

has done so far. Now, as ever you won't agree me less with the comments before,

let's up those doubts. So the first one is absolutely obvious, but that's because it rocks so damn

hard. We are going to talk about the bloodline. After WrestleMania, people did wonder what the

fallout was going to be. But what we did is we pivoted to Roman Reigns vs The Usos, and some

of the TV we have been doing on SmackDown has been so riveting on a Thursday, I'm like oh,

it's SmackDown tomorrow, because I'm a massive nerd. It also feels that we have so many plans in

place we could extend this throughout 2023, and I know, I know, maybe it would have been better if

Cody wrote a beaten Roman Reigns at WrestleMania, but if my auntie was my uncle, she would be my uncle.

What? Because look, who cares? It's still top TV, and I'm still having a great time, and you just

know, when all is said and done, Roman Reigns is going to be all by himself. He will a feud of

a Jimmy Usos, a Jay Usos, and Solar Sakawa, and then maybe we even turn the tribal chief into the

mega baby face, the Vince McMahon always wanted. It kind of feels like we should have turned him

heel years ago, but let's not worry about that. It doesn't just get him up. It gets a golden up.

One of the best stories WWE has ever told. Plus, we've not just overlaid on that too, and in fact,

we have looked to the future, and for the first time in a while, WWE has deliberately introduced

a bunch of new stars. I mean, look at this list, Alba Fire, Ila Dawn, J.D. McDonough, Cameron Grimes,

Pretty Deadly, Indy Hartwell, Zoe Starks, Katana Charts, Caden Carter, Ray Sonwala, and sure,

not all of these guys and girls have made their mark yet, but some have, especially somebody

like Zoe Starks, and also, we even have Bronn Breaker down on NXT, go, oh, Sirth Rollins, I want
