Hey SRS do you know how the women are going to perform in the women's rumble in those ridiculous bodysuits? I get why they have to do it but it honestly sucks they have to wear those especially the one(s) who's going to be the iron woman of the women's rumble.

I think you're way more bothered by it than they are. These are athletes. Many of whom have worn body suits in the past. The venue is air conditioned. It's not like they're performing in squalor or anything. They prepare for it, and in many cases take great pride in the gear created. It's not ideal, but I've never heard anyone dread it.

What is up with the complete burial of LA Knight yeah?

Man, I just don't get this. He was booked to go to the finals of the John Cena tournament, and beat Jey Uso along the way. I can't speak to his future outside of him having years left on his contract, but I don't see it as a burial. Not everyone can be the world champion at the same time. I think this is the type of reaction WWE wants to conjure up, and I've been saying that since August. He's off until 2026 at least.

How long do the young bucks & Kenny omega have left on their contract and can you see them jumping to WWE?

Kenny Omega signed a four-year contract extension in Summer of 2023, and there's a ton of injury time that could be added if that is a clause in his deal. I do not see him ever going to WWE unless it's a part time or one off. He knows his matches are limited at this point. The Young Bucks deals are at least through 2027. I'm not even sure if they have their EVP duties anymore, but there's a far more likely possibility of them doing a WWE run.
