🌙 Nate Runck
Basically his arc in season one is mostly the same, except with more depth. And he’d already know who Leia is in the beginning. He’s mostly like Michael Kelso in the first few seasons of t7s (a goofball, himbo who can be smart at times but is also a terrible bf). The moments of him being a bad bf is more apparent in season 1 and less treated like a joke. He and Jay are like each other’s wingman (the Cory and Shawn of bmw if you will). Their shenanigans would always annoy Betsy and Gwen.
In season 2, he would be distant because of the whole almost kiss thing with Leia. Gwen would cover for him but only because he should tell her and would repeatedly make that clear. In this scenario, he’d be similar to season 2 Kelso, where he’d hide the truth and try to rope everyone else into doing such. The whole thing with Leia would just be them being each other’s safety net if things don’t work out with the people they do love (mostly with Leia, Nate doesn’t love either Nikki or Leia like that. His heart is for Sarah only.)
After Nikki finds out and dumps his ass, Nate spends the whole time trying to get her back. He does beat up Jay for sleeping with Nikki, but would apologize and say some weird shit about “Jay keeping Nikki warm for him.” He’d act all desperate like season 5 Kelso was with Jackie and try to get Nikki to notice him. I already talked about his reaction to Nikki and Gwen and what he’d do. He’d mostly take his aggression out on the Kelso siblings because he feels that they were entitled to tell him the truth.
They do get back at him (mostly Betsy) and then cut him off for a while. This would make Nate start to realize how awful he’s been acting. That and Sarah, Mikayla, and Sharon would tell him how stupid he’s being. The adults would also play a role in calling out Nate and he’d end up trying to make things right and eventually gets over Nikki. He and Sarah would then start bonding more and he’d learn more about her softer side. She’d come over to his house and hang with him and Gwen as well. They end up developing crushes on each other and he’d ask Jay and Betsy advice on how to impress Sarah.
They do end up sleeping together, but Nate tries to avoid her at first because he thinks that Sarah can do better than him. Sarah does try to confront him about this but he has a slip of tongue and says that he didn’t want to tell her what was going on because he didn’t think she could handle it. Sarah would get pissed and ice him out and so would her friends for that matter. The gang knocks some sense into him and he makes a grand gesture at Sarah’s group and they become a couple. There would be lots of scenes of them bonding and being lovey dovey as well.
Nate would grow and mature the more he spends time with Sarah. And also, he’s bi in this verse too lol.

RAW August 27, 2007: 53:26
Tumblr media
He's doing an intergender tag team match
He wore his black and pink trunks to match her 😌
I can't believe he had a nose ring
He is looking so Tan and Smooth
Pearl voice: Long, Tan, and Handsome
Cody hasn't had anything to do story wise since Randy sent Dusty to the hospital but Randy was just beating the shit out of John Cena's dad while John Cena was handcuffed to the bottom rope and Cody came running out to stop him, Cody Rhodes, Defender of Dads
He started in July and it's October now and he's so much more confident already 🥹🥹 I'm so proud of my son, Cody Rhodes the Guy
He hasn't had any promos in a while but his ring presence is already basically Nightmare Cody
RAW October 15, 2007: 59:40/1:19:55
Hardcore Holly just said, direct quote: "I've been beating people up even before you were swimming around underneath your daddy's polkadots" right directly to Cody's face and that is such an unnecessarily vivid way to say that I am so uncomfortable lmaoooo
Oh my god he just slapped Cody so hard
Shawn Michaels is on and I'm reminded of Cody's "I've always fucking wanted you" delivered in an "almost homosexual" way
RAW October 22, 2007: 20:55/25:00
Another direct quote from a different wrestler (after Cody insulted the way he looks with bleached hair): "and after I'm done spanking you, you can dye your hair blond, that way you can be a thinner, less attractive, younger, certainly less talented version of your old man." [Gets very close] "see you in the ring, kid."
WWE writes such good fic dialogue omg
RAW December 10, 2007: 1:34:30
"Hot 8 Man Tag Team Action" lol ok
Dusty came back to watch Cody's first title win from the anounce desk 😭😭
look at our boy 😭😭

The week in review:
Raw 10/26 NXT 10/28 NXT UK 10/29 Smackdown 10/30
Tumblr media
Raw:
Tumblr media
Wonder what 19/11 means.
...Arsenic??... What in the-- WHY IS SHE SO HAPPY ABOUT THIS.
Boy y’all really nailed home how agonizing his suffering was before he died. My head hurts, this show is demented.
My god there are legitimately 2 of these psychopaths now.
wwe production should give Alexa’s voice a reverb effect whenever she says “let him in”
Girl is actually laughing hysterically while Bray ruthlessly murders Rambling Rabbit. Goodbye.
This act works so much better as a duo, Alexa was right in requesting to work with Bray.
Tumblr media
kekekek Shayna makes a list of women she wants on her Survivor Series team; Nia snags the list and sees she’s not on it. Whose idea was this tag team? Need to know who I’m sending a fruit basket to.
Tumblr media
Appreciate Mandy clarifying that Otis and her are still close, but I don’t understand why wwe separated them.
What is with everyone wearing black??
Lmfao this man really tried giving his rose to Shayna SIR PLZ. He had a better chance giving it to Sonya lesbireal.
Dana actually having a decent speaking segment. Half point.
“I feel like this is a joke. Is this like punk’d? Are we-- are we getting punk’d?” Nia came to entertain tonight.
Tumblr media
Why can’t wwe just implement GMs again? Love Adam Pearce but he’s literally just playing the role of GM. Just keep them in the background with the mere purpose of cohesion. Good example: Paige. Bad example: Corbin.
This actually makes sense. You have the tag champs automatically being added, cuz duh, and the tag team who are undefeated since forming and moving to Raw. So have the 5th team member fight for the spot. I don’t hate that at all. At least there’s logic being applied.
I will never not hate Peyton’s theme. Yikes.
WHAT THE FUCK IS NIKKI CROSS’ NEW THEME LMFAO why are we throwing some bland, midwest country rock track with such a slow tempo at her??!? oof rip. Sucks for Nikki that Alexa wanted something more for her career but one could not possibly blame her, so.
Tumblr media
ahahahaha I just noticed Nia took Byron’s seat. She’s so fucking funny.
Look if y’all are gonna do the move where someone lifts you over the top rope to set you on the apron, FUCKING JUMP FOR THEM. They’re not supposed to dead lift you.
Nice kick to Nikki by Lana; sloppy vault over the top rope. It’s kay, she isn’t even the worst one in this match lesbihonest.
Lacey gets Nikki in position for a suplex off the top rope, and Peyton - as quick as can be - jumps in to throw Lacey in a German suplex. That was smooth with very minimal set up. Points.
So Lana steals the win by pinning Nikki and the camera pans to all 4 team members looking absolutely shook. I am dying.
Interesting to see them focus on Peyton’s disappointment.
aaaaand rip Lana for the 6th time.
Tumblr media
Such a jarring remix of Alexa’s song.
I know y’all are super weird and choose to sexualize/fetishize everything that you don’t understand, but I appreciate Alexa’s new persona. It’s like Firefly Funhouse characters meets Disney themed characters (which is core to Alexa) meets Harley Quinn. It’s a fitting cosplay with fitting demeanors. So if y’all could quit talking about ageplay like a bunch of weirdos, that’d be great.
Alexa and I are the same age and tbh I’m kind of shook on her behalf to see her share these segments and storylines with Randy Orton. Like I was a kid watching his feud with triple h. We were mere preadolescent kids lol. Good for her.
I like that she’s immune to Fiend’s name now that she’s fully embraced him become brainwashed.
Omg she’s just sitting on the turnbuckle laughing at them.
So Fiend is just a looming threat to Orton rn? Just letting Orton know that eventually he’ll have to answer for the fire he started all those years ago? I wasn’t here for Bray’s run back then so I’m kind of trying to piece this all together. Anyway fine segment. I don’t much care about Drew vs Orton but I appreciate Orton selling the intensity of the Fiend. He’s a good worker.
Highlight: Completely split between Nia being hilarious & Alexa being creepy as hell
---
NXT:
Tumblr media
Well at least they’re keeping Ember backstage for her promos. That’s an improvement.
True, Dakota as a babyface was awful. Not sorry. Her character consisted of “scared” and “sad”... That’s it.
Tumblr media
Big fan of the set for nxt tonight.
It’s so rare to see someone handle Rhea, what a nice dynamic.
These 2 are best friends irl, aren’t they? Enjoyable to watch them go punch for punch back and forth. If nothing else, they’re definitely selling that they’re pretty evenly built.
True though, Rhea does have her athleticism going for her. Rhea’s kicks are a beautiful thing to see. Soccer player ftw.
Really like this match. It’s cool to see the range of different matches Rhea can have. It’s not often you see her in an underdog type of role, and you wouldn’t think she could thrive as one, but it works for her just the same as being a dominant powerhouse. Shouldn’t be surprised though, her vs Charlotte at wm was a banger, and Charlotte was definitely the dominant force in that match.
Commentators said Rhea’s inverted cloverleaf has tapped out “many” superstars in nxt, and I just wanna know who? Cuz I have zero recollection of such.
Good showing for Raquel. Gave zero shits about her prior to this. She’s always just been the Diesel to Dakota’s Shawn Michaels.
GREAT counter by Rhea from the one armed powerbomb into nearly a headscissors takedown.
This match is very well paced.
Oh yes, that’s the type of match that easily could’ve gone longer and left me wanting more, which is a hell of a compliment. I underestimated how good this would be.
Tumblr media
Wow they’re having Poppy rob us of Io’s theme song? For shame.
So how does the wheel actually work? Do they really not get a chance to plan out their stip matches? That’s weird. I love it, but it’s weird. Is it rigged? It’s gotta be rigged, right?
Love the black and orange themed ladders.
lmao Candice’s reaction to the bag of body parts. Fantastic.
Did Candice hit Io in the face with a laptop?? Honestly, points.
Lol chalk outlines on the tables. The theme is great.
Oh man, a moonsault straight onto chairs. rip Io’s midsection.
Wicked suplex onto the sitting chair, oof. Looked like Io clipped that.
Meteora into a steel ladder, which then fell on Io. She taking a beating lol.
Commentators mentioning Johnny counter: 3
Kinda cool spot twisting Candice’s ankle in a chair. Of course, it’s not like Candice sold the damaged ankle anyway, so.
Swinging neckbreaker through the tables - a spot that would’ve been great if the commentators had actually sold it and there was a real crowd.
idk who the hell is helping Candice, but I think it’s just fantastic that Shotzi came in to stop them.
“LeRae can’t reach,” as if this match wouldn’t have been over if she would’ve just climbed up one single ring.
Welp Candice is dead now. Fell off the top of the ladder through another ladder. Nasty landing. rip. 
Brutal match, but it still wasn’t better than their first match. At least Candice did work and this wasn’t boring unlike their last takeover match. Points for the damage they caused to their bodies, eesh.
Highlight: Rhea vs Raquel
---
NXT UK:
Tumblr media
Oh nice UK added some monitors. Good for them, even if the stream quality is kinda poor.
I like this match up. Dani Luna is an athletic powerhouse, and Valkyrie is an athletic technician. This is more the type of quality match that I’d expect on the MR - minus the storytelling/performance aspect, but that’s okay.
Really appreciate Luna’s strength for how small she seems.
Valkyrie is fun to watch. Her arm drag takedowns and counters are entertaining.
Damn Valkyrie can do a springboard cross body and a pele kick as well? What an intriguing skillset she has.
Holy shit that snap German suplex by Dani was effortlessly CLEAN.
I’m not big on Dani’s look tbh. I feel like she’d be more of a standout if her hair was a different color. I don’t think blue works for her, personally.
An interesting finisher by Valkyrie... I don’t hate it. I’m all for the result, though. Good show of respect between both competitors. Wouldn’t mind watching them again in the future.
Tumblr media
Current day has KLR still as champion (#foreverchampion) but I’m guessing they’re really gonna have Piper be the one to inevitably end it. Should be Valkyrie as far as I’m concerned. Even if she’s trash on the mic - not saying she is cuz I have no idea - she’s super entertaining to watch.
Highlight: Dani Luna vs Valkyrie
---
Smackdown:
Tumblr media
New year, same old Nattie trying to be the Survivor Series captain.
Billie Kay is entertaining but wbk.
Bianca, ma’am, you JUST started going here. Calm down.
“Bianca nobody really cares, or knows, what EST means, it’s totally irrelevant. I’m the boat.” lmao I genuinely love Nattie, not sorry.
SHE CLAPPED AT HER goodbye. Give me a Bianca vs Nattie match, entertain me plz.
Ah a triple threat? That’s fine I suppose, what the hell.
Tumblr media
Why does wwe keep depriving me of Bianca’s entrance? I hate this company.
Billie Kay: *jumps in the ring to catch Bianca in a random pinfall; fails; proceeds to leave the ring once more*
Billie Kay really is a special level of awful, but at least she has character work going for her.
Good cover by Bianca to set up the basement dropkick by Nattie to break up the pin.
Boy Bianca sure did take her time breaking up that sharpshooter. You got both Nattie and Billie Kay screaming and she’s in lala land lmao.
I will genuinely cry if they ever change Bianca’s music, I stg. Good for her btw. Appropriate result.
Tumblr media
What’s the purpose of the polaroid camera?
Soo did they basically give Carmella the layout of Sasha’s gimmick while turning Sasha babyface? Is that what’s going on? What rules is Carmella making? What shots is she calling? Why does this girl have champagne? You know who would rock the “fuck y’all I’m rich, look at my Gucci and diamonds” gimmick? The Ice Queen, Charlotte Flair.
What an adorably tiny cross.
Carmella you’re not really known for winning, but alright.
Hate this music btw.
Tumblr media
Lol this fucking chair. Okay.
“Long time rivalry renewed” didn’t Asuka and Sasha have a minor feud a mere 5 months ago? That lasted one month?? Is that considered long time now???
Sasha’s makeup is off key ngl. I hate that outfit as well.
Yes, yes she was your best friend and that was really sad, but you’re not saying anything different than you have before. And you’re STILL not likeable. But hey, I’m happy for you all the same, now be as entertaining as Bayley plz.
“The whole world knows that you can win a championship, but even you know that you can’t hang onto one. Unlike me.” pppffffttttt she’s not wrong.
Who do I gotta pay to permanently separate you 2? hiac was great, let’s end the debacle now plz.
“You made me sign that hiac contract under duress,” THANK YOU BAYLEY see someone knows their legal jargon. 
Peep that gnarly bruise on Bayley’s arm. Whew.
She’s so annoying lmao.
“Backstabbing bitches never win,” hi, Sasha? Longest reigning Raw women’s champion, first ever wm main eventer, first ever women’s dual world champion, face of the company, cover of espn and 2k20 Becky Lynch just called; said that is absolutely not true.
Highlight: Bianca, Billie Kay & Natalya backstage segment
---
*Raw shined the brightest this week, but I have to shout out NXT as well for their 2 matches, particularly Rhea vs Raquel.

NXT thoughts
I’ve been sick so I kinda just passed out right after War Games last night, BUT LET ME GET MY THOUGHTS OUT NOW BC HOLY CRAP THAT SHOW.
Lars Sullivan vs Kassius Ohno: This was a great match, it just got overshadowed by the rest of the show. These two pulled off some really crazy spots for two big dudes!! I really enjoy watching Ohno, he’s always smiling and he’s my fave.
Aleister Black vs Velveteen Dream: WOW this was a show stealer. They both had an amazing match, their chemistry is through the roof, and the ending was asglasjgkjaga. I’d like to see more of them. As a side note, I love Dream’s gimmick. I know it’s super cheesy but I LIKE IT. NXT has so much dark shit rn, that a flashy silly gimmick is desperately needed and he kills it. I saw him at an NXT house show last year and he just keeps getting better. 
Women’s Fatal 4 Way: It felt short at the time but it was 20 minutes ish so I’m not complaining. Great action from all the ladies. I really wanted Kairi to win (bc PIRATE PRINCESS), but it’s definitely Ember’s time. I was so happy to see Asuka present her with the belt. Also, Nikki Cross is a crazy person and I love her a lot. I saw them all (minus Kairi) at that same house show, and omg Nikki is SO TINY. I love seeing her do badass stuff now that I’ve realized how small she is irl. xD
Drew vs Cien: This was a solid match. Looking back though, now that we know Drew is injured (noooooo) I wonder if it happened early in the match bc he didn’t do a lot of offensive moves and the ending felt a little weird. It wasn’t even a big finisher. But I’m really happy for Cien!! I was hoping this would mean Drew is coming up to the main roster bc I think he’d be amazing, so I’m really really sad that he’s hurt now. 
War Games Match: HOLY. SHIT. THIS. MATCH. Top to bottom this match was INSANE!!!! So much carnage!! Killian Dain is a nutjob for swallowing that key lol and his reaction to the fans chanting for tables kinda made my night. Can someone check on Alexander Wolfe please because THAT DUDE WAS BLEEDING OUT ON THE RING OKAY. You could tell they pushed the match over to the other ring so the medics could work on him without the cameras on him, there was SO MUCH BLOOD OMG. And the dude got up and took MORE BUMPS after that, like, dude. Don’t die. Also, I just love seeing AOP get their asses kicked!! After their feuds with DIY and The Revival making them seem impossible to beat, I love when they get destroyed now. Really enjoying how they’re pushing Undisputed Era, I’m glad they won. They have so much momentum rn, I’d actually LOVE if they jumped the gun and called them up to Raw to feud with the Shield (bc let’s face it, the Raw tag division is really shallow and I’m sick of the same fights over and over again). I had never seen Adam Cole wrestle until he came to NXT and I am seeing what all the fuss is about AND I LOVE HIM. He really reminds me of Shawn Michaels, not necessarily his move set but his attitude and his talent in the ring. He’s just the total package. Also, FUN FACT, Bobby Fish is from my home town and I know a lot of people who know him, he went to high school with my brother in law. SO THAT’S A COOL THING. I need an Undisputed Era shirt like asap. These guys are just great, and I feel like they’re kind of WWE’s response to the Bullet Club rn. They need to bring them upppppp.

The 100 S3 Hiatus Diary
Once again, let me present to you a chronicle of our fandom’s most glorious hiatus moments. In truest hyperbole fashion we did not scale back after last year’s already impressive BS recordings. Here’s all the drama we managed to fit into the 257 days between the Season 3 finale on May 19, 2016 and the Season 4 premiere on February 1, 2017:
FYI: Entries are mostly focused on the Twitter fandom unless otherwise noted. Also beware, this diary deliberately generalises from the loud few to the many. 
Day 2: Emma Caulfield of EW writes a *love letter* bashing Bellamy into a verb and adjective. Half of the fandom cackles, other half is ready to “bellamy” her. 
Day 3: Ongoing belittling of Jasper’s PTSD in tandem with outrage from same people that show didn’t depict enough PTSD victims.
Day 6: #GiveBellamyBlakeABoyfriend circulates and is amusingly shared by lovers and haters.
Day 7: Kass Morgan is confronted with fandom members defacing and even burning her books. Because we are classy.
Day 10: Tumblr heats up when Johnny Depp beating Amber Heard gets compared to how Bellamy treats Clarke. Because bisexuality. Oh yes.
Day 11: Devon zings Harry Styles - and popstars in general - for trying to act. Somewhere Shawn Mendes cries a tear. 
Day 12: The Fandom-is-Broken article hits. Outrage everywhere, while our fandom is like “yup, sounds about right”. 
Day 15: Bob at Phoenix con says Bellamy wouldn’t have sided with Pike had Clarke returned earlier. Somehow he gets hate for that. Still unclear why. Most likely for no reason at all. 
Day 16: More Phoenix con: Bob utters word “YET”, causes avalanche. Emma Caulfield tweets her and Bob’s are besties now. Fandom responds in typical forgiving ways. 
Day 18: Tumblr has Brollexa gaining traction among BCers, the polyamorous turn it into Clexamy. Not appreciated by the CL fandom. Devon tweet-deletes, shits on cast members for making money off cons instead of donating to charity.
Day 21: Eliza and Bob get nominated for Teenchoice TV Chemistry. Disgust in CL fandom as entertaining as surprise in BC fandom. 
Day 23: Fan at Oz Comic Con asks Eliza about Chemistry nomination and gets booed. Bob speaks slloooowwwhhhuuurr to the iddiiiooootttss on twitter. Most likely entirely unrelated. 
Day 24: Eliza gets called fake/lost/drunk by BC fandom for voicing opinions about Bellarke. Beware of having opinions about ships.
Day 25: Bob replies to hate tweet. Backfires into him getting criticised for passive aggressively focusing on negativity only. 
Day 26: First hiatus hack! Eliza’s instagram. Leads to Alycia unfollowing her. Fandom entertained for a while. Plus the gem of someone comparing Lexa’s death to the Orlando shooting.
Day 28: Alycia cancels Brazil con. In a roundabout way it’s Bob’s fault.
Day 31: On the shipping front Bob  & Shampoo compete against Lexa & Bullet. Because why not. 
Day 33: Somehow BC fandom hits jackpot by criticising both Adina and Mike on same day. For not being pro-BC enough. Adina! Mike! 
Day 35: Layne Morgan attacks Ben Batemen for elevating himself to lgbt+ spokesperson. Fanbase first stunned, then divided. 
Day 37: Second hiatus hack! Layne’s phone. Apparently private numbers get leaked, some idiots message Jason’s wife.
Day 41: Third hiatus hack! (@)emiliascara hacks into Marcus Catsaras’ (Alycia’s boyfriend) icloud, finds footage of him cheating. Catsaras deletes his twitter/fb accounts. Because hell has no fury like a riled-up CL fandom.
Day 42: Lindsey jumps in to fight hackers, (@)morleydebnam jokes about hacking Lindsey.
Day 44: Hacker exposed as guy from Toronto (Michael Brand/Bahramian). 
Day 46: CL fandom overruns and impressively wins 9 of 11 E!Online polls. Still peeved over other fandoms bonding and voting against them. 
Day 48: Jarod speaks up after Alton Sterling shooting. Ends with him getting attacked over *representation* issues. 
Day 52: Eliza vs Alycia in Radiotimes quarter finals. Which fosters minor drama.
Day 56: Layne officially disinvited from clexacon. 
Day 57: Some panelists boycott clexacon after Layne’s exit. Meanwhile the gullible have a clickbait-freakout over O killing Bellamy. 
Day 58: Ben Bateman steps back from clexacon allies panel. (@)riserellamy makes it their mission to get all Arryn-haters blocked by Bob. 
Day 59: Eliza talks freely and excessively about Lexa and Clexa at Brazil Con. BC fandom really wishes she wouldn’t. 
Day 60: From the fanfic policing front: Author gets such harsh attacks for writing Lexamy they pull the fic. 
Day 61: S3 DVD is out! Deleted scenes reheat old rage. While Ricky retweets shade about him not being in the bloopers.
Day 62: #OlicityMafiaExposedClexaParty happens. CL fandom first fandom ever to cheat in a poll. 
Day 64: She said “ship”.
Day 65: Whole fandom aflame over the shit/ship debacle. Shit memes everywhere. Aaron doesn’t give a SHIT. Eliza probably avoids her mentions. Tumblr births Bellarke Drags. The best of days.
Day 66: clexasources promotes WB survey asking people to criticise show. Eliza shall be saved by cancellation. 
Day 67: ELSchaaf claims Eliza speaks condescendingly of Bellarke because she’s threatened by Bob’s popularity. Fandom appalled. In conjunction CLs figure out ELSchaaf is involved with Unity Days. 
Day 68: ELSchaaf on tumblr rampage, invites haters to call her names at con in person. Unity Days reacts swiftly and removes ELSchaaf. 
Day 70: Bellarke Shit necklace sparks controversy. 
Day 73: Wizard Con: Marie says Clarke has *nappy* hair which Eliza laughs at. Racism outrage in some fandom corners. 
Day 75: Jason’s SDCC talk about bi-Clarke getting “with everyone” resurfaces. Not the most well received. clexasources deactivates after Bob+Eliza photo post leads to attacks by followers.  
Day 78: Supposed insider troll Jason Blue stirs up rumour drama of Octavia dying. 
Day 82: Bellarke fanart repurposed as Braven fanart. Bob-birthday charity criticised for being organised by a BC shipper. 
Day 84: Pedowitz stands behind show at TCAs, does neither criticise nor cancel it on the spot, as some had hoped. 
Day 103: Fanfic policing, part 2: Bellamy goes down on Clarke in the commander’s throne. People - ignorant of the concept of *fanfiction* - are mad. 
Day 106: Eliza posts candid pic with guy-boy-friend. Apparently this makes her a lesser lgbt+ ally. 
Day 111: Fanfic’s blowjobgate! Briller&Harper fic on kinkmemes ignites long and nasty Bellarke fanfic community wars. Who gets to and with whom and with how many is not the author’s choice alone. 
Day 125: Tumblr aflame over Bellamy hating Aurora Blake, with usual shades of misogyny and racism. 
Day 130: HYPE article about ADC at Copenhagen Con calls out fans for slightly inappropriate fan behavior. More inappropriate fan behavior in reaction leads to article edits. 
Day 132: Kim retweets Fa Panini’s cute Becho fanart. BC fandom takes that as confirmation of things to come. Mild panic. 
Day 135: A clearly mangled and misrepresented SDCC comment about Clarke and love interest in S4 causes freakout. Because fandom will forever step into all clickbait traps willingly. 
Day 144: The usual bi-monthly kerfuffle about Clarke being forgotten as bi-rep in article. 
Day 145: Layne Morgan sick of TV bi girls ending up with men. Not that stats have discredited this stereotype at all. 
Day 155: Supposed insider troll Jason Blue claims insider cancellation knowledge. Insider arguments quickly debunked. 
Day 159: Photoshopped Variety tweet circulates, claiming show cancellation. Mo Ryan refutes it. 
Day 165: Lindsey stumbles into sexypilgrim drama. Apologises later for wishing people would get involved in causes beyond online outrage. 
Day 166: Press day! Drama day! Fandom-uneducated Nadia voices “Luna is stronger than Lexa”. She may forever feel the consequences. 
Day 167: Nadia tweets “Fiction”, deletes account. #NadiaDeactivatedParty follows. Eliza and later Arryn claim account is fake. Fandom thinks Eliza would rather lie than defend Nadia and her anti-Lexa statement. 
Day 170: Meanwhile in the fanfic warzone: “Bellamy rapes Lexa” gets countered with “Lexa castrates Bellamy”. 
Day 190: Bob reaches annual patience-for-twitter threshold, carries out annual twitter deactivation. States he was made to join. Fandom: lol, ok, see you in a bit. 
Day 199: Bellarke and Clexa both in same Hottest-Ships-of-the-Year list. But fandom can’t share nice things. 
Day 201: Guess who’s back on twitter, guys?
Day 216: BC-shipping jewellery artist called out for making money off Clexa art. Not allowed in the age of receipts. 
Day 219: In spirit of Christmas, Aaron issues Lexa apology. Fandom - less spirited - counters it’s 9 months too late, and never enough. 
Day 221: Katie affirms in slightly too bitter way that show is more than just Clexa. Bad move, girl.
Day 222: (@)bellamysbriller - whom Katie retweeted the day before - is exposed for catfishing and bullying. 
Day 228: More jewellery controversies, as jewellery donations to charities can only come from people who’ve never made controversial statements. 
Day 233: clexaspoilers surfaces, claims access to screeners, reveals Clexa parts. Fandom calls it baiting to make them watch, even though account claims now they DON’T have to watch. 
Day 238: BC fandom gets high on SHE HAS BELLAMY, and actually manages to trend for once. Stunning friends and foes alike.
Day 241: Unity Days report of Lindsey supposedly saying Bellarke is boring. Lindsey gets attacked and goes on twitter detox. BC fandom to blame.
Day 243: Fourth hiatus hack! Ricky’s phone. Beware of Ricky nudes. 
Day 245: Alycia’s management removes The 100 from “known for” section on IMDB. BCers shocked, CLs shrug. 
Day 248: BCers think 600 cookies might be helpful for show renewal. Laughs and eyerolls all around.
Day 249: S4 poster arrives. Cast, writers and fans partake in a who’s-who guessing game with silhouettes. Body shaming leads to #titsoutforeliza, someone leaks S4 callsheets and Funko whitewashes Raven and Bellamy. A busy day.
Day 252: CLs set up White House petition to get Jason fired. A single signature last we checked. 
Day 257: Final hiatus day: (@)the100leaked pops up to generously leak part of the Season 4 finale script and cause mass hysteria. Tadaaaaa! 
And that’s it! See you all next hiatus! Just kidding. I accept more entries, if you can link me to the evidence.

SmackDown on Fox Episode #27 SmackDown Episode # 1,076 Orlando, FL – WWE Performance Center 4/3//20 *Just a heads up this will be a more abbreviated version of the SD report as I will not be doing the usual play by play breakdown of the matches for this week due to the fact that I want to get this posted ASAP so that my thoughts and opinions aren’t outdated due to WrestleMania being two days.* We open with the intro video and then it looks like we are going to get an episode of Miz TV, however, The Usos come out instead and say that they couldn’t wait to get invited to the Dirt Sheet after what happened last week. The New Day then comes out and they argue with The Usos over who is going to become the tag team champions. The Miz & John Morrison come out and say that they are used to being disrespected despite the fact that they are the tag team champions who beat the entire tag division in the Elimination Chamber. Miz says that they plan on watching New Day and The Usos destroy each other and then they will climb the ladder and retain their titles and then Miz and Morrison climb the ladders placed on the stage.  New Day and Usos run toward Miz & Morrison and beat them down until one of the Usos accidentally superkicks Kofi which leads to Big E clotheslining him and then throwing the other Uso over the barricade. Miz & Morrison send Big E into the steps and then take Kingston down with a ladder. Miz & Morrison pose on the top of the ladders as the segment comes to an end.  This was a fine segment to hype the ladder match this weekend as it was pretty much what you would expect for the go-home show for a match like this.  Michael Cole announces that we will be seeing the Ric Flair vs Shawn Michaels match from WrestleMania XXIV tonight.   Naomi makes her way to the ring as we go to commercial.  We come back from the break and see that Sasha Banks & Bayley have joined commentary for the next match.  Match #1: Tamina Snuka def Naomi & Lacey Evans via Pinfall  Match Rating: **¼ After the match, Bayley gets in the ring and tries to kiss Tamina’s ass but she isn’t buying it as she drops Bayley with a superkick. Sasha enters the ring and brings up their days as members of Team B.A.D. and wants a fist bump, but instead, she receives a back bump as Tamina lays her out with a Samoan drop.  They are really doing as much as they possibly can to try and convince people that Tamina has a shot at winning the title after shoehorning her into it due to Carmella being unavailable, unfortunately, we all know that she has no chance of winning it nor should she…I really hope that doesn’t come back to bite me and they put the title on her for no other reason than to be unpredictable. I thought Sasha and Bayley were great on commentary during the match and I love that the streak of people screwing around with Michael Cole is continuing by Lacey Evans placing her giant hat on Cole’s head.  After the break, we go to the back where Tucker and Mandy are chatting and then we get the glitch and it tells us that “The Truth Will Be Heard”  We then go to the “I’ve already seen this” match of the night.  Michael Cole lets us know that the match between Elias and King Corbin is still scheduled despite the fact that Elias isn’t cleared to compete.  I don’t think people care one way or another if this match happens or not as it will most likely be the pee break match of one of the two nights.  We are also told out of nowhere without any explanation that Braun Strowman is the one taking Roman’s place against Goldberg at WrestleMania, this was a bit surprising as all week Triple H had been saying in interviews that the reason they didn’t reveal Strowman as Goldberg’s opponent last week was that they didn’t want to spoil the unique way in which he gets put into the match, well this was definitely unique alright Why does WWE insist on being lazy and inconsiderate of their fans, I am just glad I’m a hardcore fan because if not I would probably be confused as hell as to why and how Reigns was removed from the match and replaced by Strowman. All they had to do was just tell the truth about Reigns pulling out of the match and then have Strowman cut a promo where he says that he has talked to Reigns and that there is so much respect between them after the battles they had a few years ago and because of this Reigns has gifted him the opportunity to challenge for the Universal Title in his place as he knows that Strowman has the best chance of taking the title off the old part-timer. Then have Goldberg cut a promo running down both Reigns and Strowman. It’s really not that hard to come up with something to explain how Strowman got into the match, but WWE doesn’t give a shit enough to do something that simple and that is quite sad and pathetic.  We cut to the back where Otis and Tucker are talking and Tucker says that Mandy was asking about him earlier, but he thinks she was just being nice. Otis suddenly gets a text and walks off all happy and excited.  Match #2: Tucker def Dolph Ziggler via DQ   Match Rating: **½ After the match, Ziggler continues to beat down Tucker and looks to slam the steps on Tucker’s head, but Mandy runs out and yells for him to stop and then Otis runs out to make the save. We get the blue glitch once again and this time it cuts to a control room where a dark hooded figure appears and he proceeds to show security camera footage from back on Valentine’s Day. The footage shows Mandy talking about how sweet Otis is and then Sonya comes in and says she supports Mandy and then Mandy walks off to go on her date with Otis. Sonya picks up Mandy’s phone that she had left behind and finally we see that it was Sonya who sent the texts to Otis on that night. We then cut to footage of Sonya and Ziggler conspiring and this is enough to make Mandy walkout as Sonya begs to let her explain but Mandy ignores her pleas. Otis goes after Ziggler and tries to tackle him but Ziggler is able to escape as we go to commercial break.  We come back from commercial to see that Mandy is pissed as she continues to storm off with Sonya in tow begging for her to stop, but yet again her pleas are ignored.  I was right all along that it was Sonya who sent the text. During the post-match, I was in the middle of fixing food but I completely stopped what I was doing once I heard Mandy telling Ziggler to stop. I ran over to the TV to see what was going to happen next and that shows just how invested I am in this story because I usually don’t get distracted when it comes to food lol. Not only did we get the reveal of Sonya sending the text, but we also got what the blue glitch things had been leading up to. This could be a cool thing where this mysterious figure (who is most likely Ali) is able to hack into security cameras and other technologies in order to catch heels in the act, sort of like a one-man version of the real-life group of hackers called Anonymous. I find it odd that they did this reveal on the go-home show rather than on WrestleMania, but I guess WrestleMania is either where Mandy ends up with Otis or in the big Vince Russo twist she and Sonya end up together, either way, I look forward to seeing how all of this ends up as it has been the most interesting story on SmackDown and it’s kind of sad that it will finally come to an end.  Match #3: Daniel Bryan w/ Drew Gulak def Shinsuke Nakamura w/ Cesaro & Zayn via DQ  Match Rating: *** After the match, Gulak tackles Cesaro out of the ring and locks in a guillotine choke, but Cesaro uses his power to backdrop Gulak over the barricade. Cesaro then throws Bryan into the announce table and this gives Gulak time to recover but he is quickly double teamed by Cesaro and Nakamura and sent into the stairs. Cesaro, Nakamura, & Zayn triple-teamed Bryan and hit their finishers on him as the segment came to a close.  This Intercontinental Title match could be one of the best matches of the weekend if they let Zayn wrestle like we all know he can rather than having him running around being a chicken shit heel and constantly relying on Cesaro and Nakamura.  We go to our final break of the night.  We come back and see a replay of last week’s Firefly Funhouse.  John Cena comes out and talks about how WWE made the decision to continue running shows from the PC and he talks about how it has been a learning curve to perform in front of no fans and he thanks us for sticking with them. He says that it is the final moments of the final show before an unprecedented WrestleMania and he talks about how WrestleMania will be one of the most viewed and anticipated WrestleManias for the sole reason being that nobody knows exactly what is going to happen.  Cena talks about how he has been challenged to a Firefly Funhouse match but he doesn’t even know what that is and on top of that he doesn’t even think Wyatt knows what it is. He talks about how The Fiend thrives off uncertainty because uncertainty leads to fear and fear leads to panic and panic leads to collapse and those same traits are how The Fiend has dominated the WWE.  Cena says he will not panic and he will not be afraid and at Mania, he is going to finish what he started six years ago. He says that Wyatt isn’t even on the level below him and then calls him a bootleg Mr. Rogers. Cena says he was ready to step aside but The Fiend made the challenge and to make things worse The Fiend has tried to take every advantage he can and then Cena accepts Wyatt’s challenge to a Firefly Funhouse match.  Ramblin’ Rabbit pops up behind the barricade and says he is excited because after The Fiend is done with Cena he will be playing with them forever. The rest of the Firefly Funhouse puppets start popping up and start chanting forever before Ramblin’ Rabbit lets us know that The Fiend is here. The lights go out and when they come back on the PC has turned red and The Fiend is shown standing on the balcony, The Fiend and Cena stare each other down and then out of nowhere Wyatt pops up behind Cena and says to “Let Him In” and then the lights go back out and when they come back on Cena is standing alone in the ring as both Wyatt and The Fiend have vanished as the WrestleMania 36 go home episode comes to a close.  Finally, WWE decided to let someone somewhat address on TV  how strange it is for them to be in the PC and how crazy and chaotic this WrestleMania lead up has been. It was interesting how a lot of what Cena said in terms of the fear and uncertainty surrounding The Fiend mirrors how everyone is feeling during these crazy times we are living in.  I’m glad to see that Ramblin’ Rabbit has recovered once again from being ground up in a blender. The ending moments of Cena staring down The Fiend felt like something you would expect to see in Lucha Underground as it had more of a cinematic feel to it rather than a sports entertainment feel and we even got a jump scare at the end which was nice. I look forward to seeing exactly what a Firefly Funhouse match is and the same goes for the Boneyard match.  With the exception of giving no explanation as to why Braun Strowman replaced Roman Reigns I thought this was a really good go-home show for SmackDown as their final hype for the Otis vs Ziggler match and the Cena vs Wyatt has me more excited to see what is going to happen at WrestleMania.    My thoughts and prayers go out to everyone especially those living in the hot spot areas and a big thank you to all of the essential workers still having to go out and risk their lives to either save other lives or to provide the essential things we need in order to keep going. I hope everyone has a fun time watching WrestleMania and for the time that it is on you are able to mentally escape for 3-4 hours because right now we need that kind of escape more than ever and for that reason alone I am happy that WWE continued on with these shows.

WWF In Your House: Mind Games 1996 PPV Review
While WCW is running perhaps the greatest wrestling storyline of all time, what is WWF doing? Just kind of spinning their wheels. Mankind and The Undertaker is the only interesting feud going on in the promotion right now in my opinion and Shawn Michaels cannot possibly lose! To be fair, Owen Hart is doing his Slammy Award-winning heel gimmick and I enjoy that, and I love me some Jim Cornette, but aside from those things I don’t see much going into IYH: Mind Games to get me excited.
Tumblr media
Date: 9.22.16 / Arena: CoreStates Center - Philadelphia, PA / Attendance: 15000 / Tagline: N/A
Caribbean Strap Match Savio Vega def. Justin Bradshaw in (07:09)
Savio absolutely streaking into the ring and diving in like he’s sliding on ice
Not gonna lie, I don’t really see the point in having this stipulation over a flat out No DQ match and just bringing a belt or a strap in. The four-corners thing is silly to be honest
ECW chants already starting. We love ya Philly!
WAIT A MINUTE, WHO’S THAT IN THE FRONT ROW? TOMMY DREAMER AND THE SANDMAN ATTEMPTING TO JUMP THE BARRICADE?
Vega won, I kinda stopped giving a fuck after the ECW guys showed up to be honest.
My Rating [1*] / Daddy Meltzer’s Rating [1.25*]
Jose Lothario pins Jim Cornette in (00:57)
Lothario comes out to HBK’s music, which I think is fucking hilarious
“Cornette setting an all time record for cholesterol levels!” -JR
Ugh this is such an idiotic dumb match. Nobody wants to SEE THIS GOD
I’m the biggest Cornette stan on earth and even I hate this
Thank god it’s over quickly
My Rating [0*] / Daddy Meltzer’s Rating [-1*]
WWF Tag Team Title Match Owen Hart & The British Bulldog def. Billy Gunn & Bart Gunn “The Smoking Gunns” [c] w/ Sunny in (10:59)
Owen’s hip tosses are so damn crisp, you gotta love them
Absolutely vicious chop block headfirst slide from Owen to Bart Gunn takes out his legs
Bulldog working on Bart’s knees after that
Owen with a beautiful sitdown onto the injured knee into a figure four (I think it’s a figure four)
Bulldog may not be as impressive as Owen but he’s strong as shit and still totally off the sauce--hits a delayed vertical suplex and a kip up
Billy Gunn smashing Bulldog into the steps
Clarence Mason is now out as the Camp Cornette third
Billy Gunn with a flying punch after springboarding off the back of Bart
Bart and Billy hit a sidewinder but Owen breaks up the pin after a Clarence Mason distraction
Bulldog pins Bart while Owen DECKS Bart with a roundhouse kick
My Rating [3.25*] / Daddy Meltzer’s Rating [2.25*]
Mark Henry sub. Jerry “The King” Lawler in (05:13)
“The only reason I watch the Olympics is to see if one synchronized swimmer drowns, do they all have to drown?” One of my fave King lines of all time
They’re putting over how unprepared Henry is so he’s probably going to fuck King up
Just some back and forth bullshit to show how strong Henry is and how big he is, pretty uninteresting
Lawler takes a nasty bump against the railing jesus christ
Henry wails on Lawler with the knees, submits him with a backbreaker
Helmsley and the New Rockers come in to fight Henry and he just fucks them up
Trips still paying for the curtain call I guess lol
My Rating [.25*] / Daddy Meltzer’s Rating [DUD]
Final Curtain Match The Undertaker Goldust in (10:23)
The pop for Taker is ridiculous. That’s never going to change as long as he wrestles, man. What a fucking legend.
The “Final Curtain Match” stipulation means that it’s No DQ, basically. Just a fun name for that.
Goldust’s finesse is ridiculous--that fucking swinging neckbreaker is so smooth
Thunderous vertical suplex from Taker
Taker walking on the ropes is always cool asf
Goldust gives Undertaker a face full of...well, gold dust
Taker is fighting comically blind and punching the air after that lmao
Goldust drawing heat by lookin kinda gay, as he usually does
Loud fucking suplex on Goldust, holy shit
Undertaker being the best pure striker in the WWF, Maggle!
Massive flying clothesline spot in the center of the ring sends Goldust on his ass
Turnaround chokeslam on Goldust from the top turnbuckle
Taker hits a tombstone piledriver and destroys both Goldust and his fucking knees
My Rating [2.5*] / Daddy Meltzer’s Rating [1.5*]
WWF Heavyweight Title Match Shawn Michaels def. Mankind by DQ in (26:25)
In a prematch promo, Shawn Michaels insinuates he’s going to fight Mankind’s mindgames by not having much of a mind himself, which is fucking hilarious
Mankind comes out in a casket with the druids and Paul Bearer. Speaks directly to my goth soul
JR points out how challenging of a champion Mankind would be to market
things we know about Shawn Michaels going into this match
he thinks he’s cute
he knows he’s sexy
he’s got the looks that drive the girls wild
he’s got the moves that really move ‘em
he sends chills up and down their spines
Fast paced right out of the gate with Mankind having the advantage

Incredible psychology here

Fucking rough bump on the stairs, then on the ringpost, from Mankind
MANKIND’S NECK GETS STUCK BETWEEN THE ROPES YET MANAGES TO APPLY THE MANDIBLE CLAW! MY GOD
MICHAELS BRINGS IN A CHAIR ON THE OUTSIDE!
Painful looking joint manipulation from Michaels on Mankind
SHEESH Michaels goes flying over the top ropes and is lying on the ground--and eats a Mankind elbow for his troubles
DDT from Mankind on Michaels for the two count
Mankind throws two chairs into the ring
Michaels gets shoved into the casket but escapes! Flying clothesline! And a kip up! And a top rope crossbody!
MANKIND TAKES HIMSELF AND SHAWN MICHAELS THROUGH THE FUCKING SPANISH ANNOUNCE TABLE DEAR GOD
MANKIND COMING OFF THE TOP ROPE WITH A CHAIR BUT MICHAELS JUMPS UP OFF ANOTHER CHAIR AND HITS THE AERIAL SWEET CHIN MUSIC
VADER JUST FUCKING RUNS IN WHY NO WHY UGHHHHHHHH
Psycho Sid comes in too? What a bullshit finish to an otherwise incredible match.
And somehow Taker was in the casket as well? What the fuck?
You can’t take away that much from what these guys did though, holy fucking shit.
My Rating [4.5*] / Daddy Meltzer’s Rating [4.75*]
Final PPV Grade: C
Dear lord this PPV is such a mixed bag. The Shawn Michaels / Mankind match is fucking incredible and frankly timeless, but there’s a bunch of boring and embarrassing shit on this card as well--and even the well-put together matches aren’t terribly exciting in terms of story. But, y’know, it’s an IYH. Not as disappointing as if one of the big PPVs was this mediocre.
