Or do you just recieve a text when you're barely out of bed one morning.."Sup Devin just got a text from some wbc dude, you're the champ now!!! Congrats bro, hit me back". Leaving Haney to fist pump in the bathroom mirror, all alone, and start blowing himself up on social media. These guys don't even get to leap up center ring..or mouth 'and the neeeew' as Lennon or Buffer read the results. They don't even get a Yooo Adrienne we did it!!
LMAO! Great mental picture there. ;D
"..... fist pump in the bathroom mirror...." indeed ;D
All in all pretty pathetic and sad when you think about it.

It's an odd thing the loss of a defining career moment. Guys are being handed second hand trinkets now with the enthusiasm once reserved for when they just dropped them on the scales. The wbc desperately needs to create the Tin-foil Meh belt.

Wow! Breaking news! Loma named franchise champion!
Serious question - why do you always copy and paste repeat stories into threads? Do links not work depending on the device used?
