Pre-show notes:

- Don’t be afraid to contribute to the discussion in our comments section, click the “like” button and share the column on your social media things. Not everybody watches NXT, so spreading the word is important.

- If you’re wondering where you can watch NXT, it’s currently on Hulu Plus every Thursday. If you’re like, “weh, I don’t want to have to pay for Hulu Plus to watch wrestling,” it’s the best wrestling show and Hulu Plus is like 8 dollars. Just do it, it’s fine. You aren’t gonna miss 8 dollars. You can watch this week’s episode (as long as they keep it up) here.

Pre-show notes:

- Comments, shares, likes, and anything else that gets people to come here are appreciated, as always. If this column becomes the most successful Best and Worst column ever, I’ll eat a Hardee’s Thickburger. Just kidding, I absolutely will not.

- Be sure you’re reading With Leather’s This Week In Horrible-Looking People every Monday. This week we did a WCW retrospective, and yes, it does feature me mentioning how much I love The Cat. Again. I don’t have enough opportunities to do that.

- Also, be sure you’re reading my Best and Worst of NXT column. It needs your support, and will come in handy when guys get called up and you wanna know who’s good and why.

- Be sure you’re reading With Leather’s This Week In Horrible-Looking People every Monday. This week we did part 2 of TNA Impact Wrestling, and there is more than one Traci Brooks photo. Go check that out.

- I’m looking for somebody to fill in on the Best and Worst of WWE Payback report (the show’s on June 16). If you’re an Internet type of note and want to give a wrestling report on With Leather a try, shoot me an e-mail at mrbrandonstroud@gmail.com and I’ll consider you. It does require you to actually follow through with a long-ass verbose report, so keep that in mind when applying.

This week’s a special one, so I’ll let you get to it. Please click through to enjoy the Best and Worst of WWE Raw for June 6, 2013.
