Alexa got mad on Twitter about the crowd shitting on their match last night. It's a real sign of kool-aid consumption when you lash out at the paying customers rather than the company that put you in that position. (and yes I know she can't really rail at the company on social media, just pointing out it's not a good look to lash out at the crowd for not being eternally grateful they were subjected to a TWENTY FOUR MINUTE elimination match.)

Blah

Alexa looking more like her off-TV normal self without all the excess eye makeup was interesting. Normally they don't change the presentation of the women like that.

I seem to recall that they were, but it's short sighted. They can't bring back legends every week since it's been proven nostalgia quickly has diminishing returns, and very few fans that come back for those shows end up sticking around past that week. Basically they get one decent rating then it's back to normal. Plus they're about a month and a half away from football coming back and murdering their ratings.

Well it's not like Brock was being left out of the title scene before Heyman got control. As long as he keeps giving him these bazillion dollar contracts, Vince is going to feel like he needs to be champ to make it not seem like he's wasting money.

All Hail the return of BORK LAZER

They spent all that time just building up Ronda, Charlotte, and Becky. Now one's gone, one's been off TV for months, and Becky's been on newbie detail.

She was dead before that by being put into a feud with Lacey.

Yeah

Corey out here stopping short of mentioning his own divorce on commentary is certainly something.

This also kind of exposes how silly it is to have an EXTREME RULES match but the men can only fight the men and the women can only fight the women, all with proper tags.

Lacey having Seth's name on her ass made me giggle, I'll give them that.

I'm ready to fight the person along the rampway with the "Darkwing Duck Sucks" sign.

Nice to see Heavy Machinery breaking out the Rockerplex. One of those "why hasn't anyone else used that?" moves.

We know they're awesome, but why would the average fan in the crowd give a shit about this match when they've been conditioned to not care about the tag team division?

Drew Mac popping up like a horror movie villain while Taker was Taker-ing was a pretty neat visual.

Not sure where you trained is going to help when you get kicked in the dome, but okay.

Britt Baker confirmed she got concussed in her match.

I'm sure she would get the HHH/Brock "Wellness doesn't apply because reasons" pass.

IIRC it was all about the frog splash in that game.

Also I'm having a moment here realizing I used to play as CIMA in Virtual Pro Wrestling 2 on my N64.

In a company that wants to stress the importance of wins and losses, I just can't buy for a second that Kenny is going to lose here.

I agree. I never saw them before today and was impressed at their ability but they need a new gimmick badly.

My thought was "mini Ray Rowe and every fat jobber in a mask from the 80s"
