9 Ups And 8 Downs From WWE Money In The Bank 2020
5. Hey, It’s Not Thanksgiving
WWE loves its tropes. Contract signings will end in a brawl. Trophies will get broken. And food will end up being thrown.
So when all the wrestlers converged on a large room where Paul Heyman was inexplicably eating a feast suitable for 20 people, you knew where it was going. And it was just as painful as you’d expect. In the middle of this all-out brawl to get to the roof and retrieve a briefcase that all but guarantees you a world title reign, everyone stopped to throw food at each other.
When this sort of thing happens during a Thanksgiving episode of SmackDown, we overlook it because it’s usually part of some backstage skit, not in the middle of a PPV match.
This was just dumb. They just had to stick one of their old standbys into this, just for the hell of it. It’s not even like there was some big luncheon. It was just Heyman with a bunch of food. Because.
