WWE News: Road Dogg Replies To Fan Criticism Over Becky Lynch’s Booking
Since SummerSlam on August 19th, the booking of WWE Superstar Becky Lynch has remained a hot topic among the WWE Universe.
Of course, we all know Becky turned on Charlotte Flair after losing a Triple Threat for the SmackDown Women’s Title and ever since, many fans have been displeased with the WWE’s attempt at positioning ‘The Lass Kicker’ as a heel. One man who has always gotten the majority of grief or praise for SmackDown Live’s angles is Brian James (Road Dogg), a lead writer for the blue brand.
This week on Twitter, James responded to a number of fan comments regarding Becky’s booking:
Pick a side. That’s what I’m asking you to do, pick a side!!!

We’re listening, what would you have us do? She’s in the best women’s story, arguably the best story going today? What else can we do?
— Brian G. James (@WWERoadDogg) September 13, 2018
I don’t see her as a heel. I just see her as a Bad A$$ but I guess we see things differently
— Brian G. James (@WWERoadDogg) September 13, 2018
Also, “pops” aren’t what I’m shooting for mate but I get what you’re saying.
— Brian G. James (@WWERoadDogg) September 13, 2018
Well, it’s nice to get “a pop” but pops don’t pay the bills

EA’s Take: I mean…the guy isn’t wrong. I’ve found the crowd “rebellion” for lack of a better term to be just one of many absurdities when it comes to wrestling fans. We get it, you love Becky and you’re a fan of her, but that’s why you can’t see both sides of the spectrum. I hate to break it to people, but Becky had not been interesting for a long while and now, bam! She attacks Charlotte Flair and is instantly hotter than she’s ever been as a character, gets better reactions than she ever has. It’s not a coincidence that all happened at the same time. To me, it doesn’t matter if a character becomes successful as a heel, babyface, tweener, whatever. Success isn’t specifically exclusive to being a babyface so I don’t understand why people can’t just be happy that she’s in a prime spot. That’s what you should do if you REALLY support her.

TNA Thursday Night Impact averaged 175,000 viewers on AMC last week, a 17.5% decline from the previous week’s 212,000 and the lowest audience since January 22. The show posted a 0.03 rating in the key 18-49 demo, down 25% and matching its lowest demo figure on AMC since the move.
The drop coincided with stiff competition — Impact ran opposite the NFL Draft (simulcast on ESPN, ABC and the NFL Network) as well as NHL and NBA playoff coverage, leaving the program tied for 70th on the primetime cable charts. Versus the prior 10-week average (0.04 rating and 240,300 viewers), last week’s show fell 25% in the demo and 27.2% in overall viewers.

Nick Hogan told the Bonus Edition of the 83 Weeks podcast that after watching the final version of Hulk Hogan: Real American he’s more open than ever to stepping into the ring if the opportunity presents itself. Hogan said he’s been knocking off ring rust, is in good shape and “would absolutely welcome” the chance to pursue an in‑ring career, and noted the docuseries — which premiered on Netflix on April 22, 2026 — helped clarify his father’s legacy.
He also praised the series for pulling back the curtain on the many facets of Hulk Hogan, from character work to charitable efforts, saying it showed how dynamic a person his father is. Nick added that the long-discussed Chris Hemsworth biopic from 2019 remains a possibility despite delays, as the documentary continues to renew interest in Hogan’s story.
