The main event was just a bunch of stuff: It’s baffling to me how much folks want to all work this style of dangerous moves without any connectivity between them. Upping the danger just by going to the next one doesn’t a build make.
Sammy’s issue is always contextual: He’s a terrible babyface because he’s too slimy, and as a heel, he leans into the wrong stuff, especially given his offense is more babyface oriented. He’s flipped on axis, and he can’t find his footing given any type of push. He needs direction more than anything, and there’s nobody there to give it to him.
Darby GETS wrestling. He was great from the start, essentially. It’s why he’s the best foil for Max, but the other ones need more than just work or the right opponent. They need paradigm shifts to make them better, and those don’t come from getting overexposed.
