Monday - Raw Season Premiere

Wednesday - AEW Dynamite Debut vs. NXT

Friday - Friday Night Smackdown Premiere

Sunday - Hell in a Cell

Easily the biggest week for professional wrestling in a long time. I don't think pro wrestling will ever become as big as it was in the late 90s, simply because kids and adults these days have far more entertainment options available, but I do think professional wrestling is on an upward trajectory to expand its fanbase.

I'm interested to see what TV-14 means for AEW and how long TNT let's it stay that way.....I mean I don't think blood, guts, and 85% naked women work for mainstream advertisers in today's #MeToo world.

I'm hoping they are able to overcome that but I'm not betting on it.

I am excited for the WWE draft.. I think a lot of wrestlers will really benefit from the new brand split

People actually pay attention to the how TV shows are rated?

This past WrestleMania week probably was just due to the sheer volume of wrestling shows that took place in New York with the implications that AEW was on the horizon looming heavy on a lot of those indy shows

That's because Brian was great. If he hadnt died, and would have been used right in the attitude era..his connection to steve..may have been great.
