The Thread Killer

This match is ruining this match for me.

If there was a drinking game where you had to do a shot every time Reigns threw a Superman Punch, you would die of alcohol poisoning halfway through this match.

The visual of Reigns running three-quarters of the way around the ring directly into the steel steps was just goofy. Also, I can tell Strowman is a heel because he's very shouty.

I fricking hate that jack-off motion Reigns makes with his arm every time he throws the Superman punch. Just throw the punch, moron. We don't care that you can repeatedly rub your forearm.

I am slow to accept change when it comes to my cages. I remember back in the 80's when they changed from the traditional steel mesh to the giant blue bars. I hated that too. I guess they made this red to differentiate it from the Elimination Chamber, but still. Part of the sell of the cage is it being steel, and the traditional gray sells the steel to me.

I don't hate the red Cell, but it doesn't look like Hell in a Cell to me. Seems too cartoony.

Hey Mick, Little Orphan Annie called. She wants her haircut back.

If it gets them away from the stupid storyline with AJ's family and results with the brawl they should be having, I'm all for it. Having said that, I fully expect the upcoming No DQ/No Countout match to result in a blistering display of mat-wrestling.

Yeah, I thought it was hysterical how UFC tried to promote her as likeable until she coached on The Ultimate Fighter and got exposed badly as mean-spirited and entitled.

Considering how little experience she has, Rousey's performance level is quite exceptional. She's more fun to watch than quite a few women who have tons more experience than she has. There is something to be said for her level of commitment and athleticism. And I didn't like her one little bit in MMA.

Ronda is so lucky to have such a close best friend like Natty, who she can totally trust and who will never ever betray her.

I'm sorry, the damage has been done. I used to like you, but now I know you're no better than that filthy chauvinistic reprobate Dave Meltzer, going around looking at women and commenting on what you see. My righteous indignation and irrational response knows no bounds. This is an outrage and I shall remain outraged until I find something else to become outraged about. Outrageous.

That's just crazy talk. We're a bunch of mindless consumers who need to be told what we like.

Oh, I thought it was a real thing that happened. Also I am very upset with myself for even remembering that happened.

What? WHAT?! Don't objectify women! Leave women's bodies alone! #Diversity #Inclusiveness #Progressiveness #Hashtag

Didn't Alicia Fox get suspended for quite a while for cussing out Ronda's husband at Wrestlemania? Also, why is she dressed up like somebody from Prince's entourage?

That's the thing. You take the WWE writing and restrictions away and let Joe and AJ have a match tomorrow that they lay out, I bet you anything they tear the house down. Joe's knees wouldn't enter into the conversation.

I wonder if during all that time Bryan was working so hard to get reinstated it was because he was dreaming about being involved in lame intergender matches in the midcard. I have no beef with the Miz/Bryan feud but Brie is too weak to be involved, honestly. She looked pretty out of place there, in my opinion.

I don't buy or agree with the whole "Joe is past his prime" talking point. Yeah, he's older and slower but he's had plenty of good matches since being called up to the main roster. He just needs to be booked properly (like he was in the Lesnar angle) and when he isn't, he doesn't look good. I don't attribute that to his knees I attribute it to bad writing. This whole stupid storyline with AJ's family is a perfect example. Joe can cut great heel promos, but they have him reading moronic children's stories because they employ shitty writers. That match with AJ was good, but it wasn't as good as the first match at Summerslam and just like with the Becky/Charlotte match, they are having these so-called "blood feud" matches start off like standard wrestling matches instead of brawls, because they suck at laying these angles out.

That was a good match and I really liked that finish. McIntyre is so much better than Ziggler though, their pairing really doesn't do much for him in my opinion.

As I recall, I much preferred Ambrose and Rollins as a team. Then again, they're fighting Dolph Ziggler, so how good can this be? Does Renee acknowledge that Ambrose is her husband?

One thing I've learned from tonight is that if you hold a Tag Team Championship in WWE, you're apparently contractually required to wiggle your hips and gyrate your pelvis. Which I don't want to see, really.

The heel wins, and the crowd goes nuts cheering and starts to chant her name! Wait, what?

I respectfully disagree. You can't have the kind of match she had at Wrestlemania this past year if you suck.

I'm totally out of touch with what's been going on in the Women's division...but it seems to me that they're trying to portray Becky as a heel, when I thought she was the popular underdog babyface, and they seem to be conversely trying to play Charlotte as a face, when I thought she was pretty much a natural heel. WTF goes on here? The fans don't seem to be going along with the plan, if that's what it was.
