I guess this means Beth in the women's match?

Booker has them Iron Shiek knees

Rhea makes it worthwhile.

Corey and Pat talking about Pittsburgh drinking spots is like a fever dream to me

Corbin getting murked will always get a thumbs up in my book.

Nothing seems to make Brock happier than seeing new MEATY MEN to slap meat with.

Here comes Brock to take out the trash

I really want Gunther vs Drew now

Corey referencing Mil Mascaras eliminating himself from the Rumble got a pop from me

It was a very New Day way to swerve the old "tag partners fight at the Rumble" spot. Plus the crowd didn't seem to want to see them fight.

GUUNTAAA beating the shit out of fools for an hour is gonna slap

Well we already got Pat McAfee (and Cole apparently legit marking out for it), so we're doing great so far.

my man Fluffy on the pre-show, nice!

IIRC Rocky is in Mexico since he's New Japan's liaison to North America and Fantasicia Mania is coming up soon. He seems to be really good at being a proper buffer that allows companies that sometimes (or all the time in CMLL's case) act weird to play together nicely. Also there's probably going to be a rematch while the CMLL guys are in Japan that should be good.

tbf it did seem that the whole Head of the Table thing was an obvious setup for a confrontation w/ the Rock since he's clearly the top money earner in the family.

I get they probably didn't want to book Drew and Sheamus to lose, but them just choosing to give up their spot because they got attacked by the Insurrection Raiders was kinda lame. I don't think I've ever seen Miz just brainfart mid promo like he did tonight, but props to him for handling it like a pro. Main event was solid, Solo is so good for his time in the biz it's crazy. It's going to be interesting how KO is booked at the Rumble. Clearly he's not winning but he's been built up so many times I wonder if he's in danger of being in Lex Luger territory as the guy who always challenges for the title but loses.

I think it's funny they gave the real Marine the finisher of the fake Marine.

She's already a champion so it doesn't even make sense for her to be in the Rumble, let alone win it.

I mean, at least in a Vince run WWE he didn't. Yeah it's stupid but there's no way a guy who looks like him was going to go anywhere on the main roster.

Santino was good at getting Vince's brand of comedy over as best as anyone could, but at the end of the day he was still polishing turds. Funny thing is he just showed up in Impact as their new authority figure so I suppose we'll see if he can succeed in a non WWE environment.

Especially since they already did the "act like they're going to fight but it was a SWERVE" deal the other week for the battle royale.

In kayfabe, it's kinda dumb to book one person to face the tag champs straight up as opposed to a "tag partner got taken out and the remaining person goes it alone" situation. It also seems a little bit early to be putting Sol Ruca in main events, but I guess they're striking while the iron is hot since her finisher went viral so I can't fault that. Also I want to see Sol and Tiffany have a flippy contest and see who can come up with the most ridiculous shit.

Not sure what anyone in NXT sees in Hank the Security Guy's Seth Rogen lookin-ass.

That moonsault was NICE

NXT kicking off with Indi vs bubba @KawadaSmile's favorite Tiffany Stratton (and her "upgrades").
