2. The Man Needs Coaching

Jonathan Coachman is an idiot. He is an idiot.

Even by his dreadful standards, he was on rare form over SummerSlam weekend. The guy is essentially Art Donovan, only considerably less endearing; all he does, constantly, is ask questions that threaten to unravel the predetermined enterprise. These questions are too probing.

He asked why Finn Bálor doesn't simply wrestle as The Demon all the time. "Well Coach," Corey Graves would have to say. "He's short, so we don't want him to win all the time. The character needs to be protected, but we can't be bothered to come up with a kayfabe reason, like the Demon threatens to make him evil or some b*llocks."

Why is Ronda Rousey calling her spots?

Because she's still a bit green, you dumb sh*t!

Didn't Ember Moon hurt herself when she delivered a suplex to the outside?

Probably Coach! But shut the f*ck up about it!

At this rate, on next week's RAW, Coach will probably wonder aloud why wrestling, with its very ugly history, hasn't yet been swept up into the #MeToo movement.

Coach has been involved in pro wrestling since 1999. He's done this sh*t for two decades, and he still doesn't get it.
