Matchbook payouts have been good outside of a speedbump a few months back. Rumors and other factors aside, let's see what these books do over the next few weeks.
WSEX wasn't 4 months behind in payouts and was an A- 8 months ago too. I don't know where "it was posted that MB had new ownership" but it wasn't at SBR. It sounds like a website doing PR for a book that was paying fast but linked to one that wasn't.
