I hope they figure out the sponsor thing, because it's gonna get annoying if they have all these sponsors and they mute Cole's mic every time he has to mention one.

It’s a special show. Obviously the pacing won’t be like this every week. Lol there’s not going to be celebrities and card full of PPV main events every week.

That's why I'm not worried. Pacing, show length, all of it will be different starting next week.

I hope they figure out the sponsor thing, because it's gonna get annoying if they have all these sponsors and they mute Cole's mic every time he has to mention one.

I'm sure we'll get comparisons by tomorrow about the differences between US and international feeds to see what was different/cut.

Sponsors and "ad breaks" could definitely be made smoother than it's been so far tonight, but that's not a big issue.

And there's the 2K25 tease.

Mark your bingo cards.

That Hogan segment was the biggest flop of the night.

Nothing but boos after the initial pop.

He's the one I'd be fine with never seeing again.

I would've brought in Hollywood Hogan for that. Surely WWE would've known he'd get booed right? If you have to have him, at least play in to it.

Playing around with some settings, you can listen to the live show in all diff languages. Wonder how much that'll change things for some people too.

No need for some alternative broadcast. For instance, people in Quebec can watch a French feed which I don't think French feeds was an option with Sportsnet. USA doesn't need SAP. People can also listen to it in other languages.

That could also draw some interest from fans who otherwise wouldn't be as in to the show just watching in English.

I was watching on a slight delay (one downside of no ads, you can't skip 1 hour of the show as easily anymore), and the feed tells you when the live show ends even if you're watching the live feed at an earlier part. It doesn't cut off which is nice too.

Also, speaking of foreign languages, RIP announce table spots? Or at least on Raw and SD since they'll probably have the old Spanish/French/Arabic announce table for PLEs still if needed?

Segment took a nose dive real quick. I don’t know what WWE was thinking, especially given the show was in LA of all places. I can separate the person and their character easily, like yeah you can dislike Terry Bollea for being an awful person but everything he did for Pro Wrestling as the character of Hulk Hogan can't be denied. Wrestling never would have became what it became without him.

Lesson learned hopefully for WWE... keep him in the 2K games, sell his merchandise and apparently his beer, but keep him off your TV in the foreseeable future.
