What's going to be annoying is if they go back to recap this segment 15 times throughout this broadcast instead of...putting on more stars, segments, or matches.

Meltzer confirming what I mentioned a minute ago. Heyman has a decent amount of influence tonight, but not completely yet

Some notes regarding the new roles of Paul Heyman and Eric Bischoff in WWE. There is more Heyman influence in tonight's Raw, but he's had influence for some time. It is not his complete show. Bischoff is starting very soon (likely his fingerprints will be on things starting after the PPV) and will be at the show on Tuesday since the ad went out and they feel they need to have him there, but this week's Smackdown is not his show. Heyman will continue as a TV character in the role of the advocate for Brock Lesnar and not in an authority position, feeling the authority position is played out. Bischoff's situation is not confirmed past he was not hired to be a television performer. We'll have a lot more on the whys this happened in the new issue but the basic stuff talked about in the current issue is accurate as what caused the move and why these were the two guys picked. Both will have influence in long-term booking with their ideas, but it is still Vince McMahon's show.

Who made that "no wrestling during commercial breaks" decision anyhow? That's gotta be hell for the TV taping crowd that's already exasperated with a shit TV product.

Vince. He said that because they are trying to present themselves more as a sport, and real sports don't do action during commercials, that they shouldn't either.

someone brought up that Cole said "fans"

Renee also said "hospital"

It's really stupid that using words real people use is some sort of sign of change, but that's the low bar they're at

Vince just discovered that sports takes commercial breaks in between the action.
I'm late on commenting about this, but it sounds like a fucking dumb edict by Vince if that's his reasoning. The commercial breaks that occur in sports happen when there's designated breaks during baseball, basketball, and football games (ie when the play stops). The play doesn't stop because of the commercials.
