Yeah, I hated it. Kinda sloppy, kinda slow, being in the death spot didn't help it. Glad Asuka retained. The German spot was gross though. Mickie's slap was pretty good too.

She looks like Steven Tyler of Aerosmith.

Think it has more to do with following the tag match than anything else. Yeah, I think you're right.

Damn, crowd pretty dead for Mickie's return

After Rusev, I think Dawson is my favorite wrestler in WWE.

Authors of Pain match was... well, it happened. Pretty bad. Ciampa is not a good hot tag at all. Ciampa is gonna turn on Johnny Wrestling, right? (guess not!) The Revival is SO good.

The song is more over than both the wrestlers. Tye doesn't have much charisma and is way too bland & boring. Crowd was hot for the opener, which is all you can ask for. I agree the match went too long.

This is awesome chants already and they've yet to even touch lmfao.

Yeah, that was monumentally fucking stupid. Yikes.

Really excited for Takeover tonight. Joe/Nak 2 has me hype. Plus the crowd should be banana.

I'm excited for both NXT Takeover & Survivor Series. It's the weekly TV shows that usually disappoint me. The PPVs are still usually pretty fun.

Alright, after re-watching all three, I voted with the Great American Bash title change for best, the Strap Match second & the King of Cable match third. Honestly, I'm not sure if I had seen all three of these matches before. If I have, it had been so long ago that I had forgotten them.

WWE is making so much money as a whole that I feel like they're not paying enough attention to their bread-and-butter anymore which is the cable television wrestling show. Sure, they're making hand over fist now but if the TV remains weak and WWE Network subscriptions dwindle, won't those other revenue streams eventually start to run out?

I actually thought Rusev/Reigns was the best HIAC match on the card and from all the post-show reading I've done, that seems to be an opinion that is quite in the minority. I think Seth/Owens was the worst of the three... and he had it as MOTN. Whatev.

Here they are, by the way: Lince Dorado, Sin Cara and Cedric Alexander vs Tony Nese, Drew Gulak and Ariya Daivari ***1/4 Roman Reigns vs Rusev ***1/4 Dana Brooke vs Bayley *1/2 Enzo Amore and Colin Cassady vs Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson ** Seth Rollins vs Kevin Owens **** The Brian Kendrick vs TJ Perkins *3/4 Cesaro and Sheamus vs The New Day **3/4 Sasha Banks vs Charlotte Flair **3/4 I guess Dave doesn't agree that Banks/Flair was one of the best WWE matches ever.

Think about this: this THREAD was made on 11 Feb 2007 - That's almost a decade ago... and we've been talking about TNA being shit the ENTIRE time. I don't think there's any question it's the worst promotion of all-time anymore. A decade of head-shaking, eye-rolling & confused faces.

I actually think that of the IV Horsewomen, Sasha is the worst. I easily put Becky & Charlotte ahead of her & although it's close, I think Bayley edges her out a little too. I go back-and-forth between Bayley & Sasha but yeah, this is an easy vote for Charlotte for me. Since coming to the main roster, only Charlotte & Becky feel like they have thrived. A lot of it is booking of course but Bayley & Sasha don't feel anywhere near how they were perceived in NXT.

Rollins Vs. Owens is pretty much everything I hate about pro-wrestling. The animated .gif posted earlier being a good, visual example. Sasha Vs. Charlotte is being ridiculously overrated in this thread but it was a lot better than Rollins/Owens. I have no problem with it going on last whatsoever. I just wanted more.

It drives me bonkers to see people congratulating the heels post-match all over social media. It's impossible to get real heat anymore because as soon as the match/event is over everyone is all like "QUEEN!" all over dumb ass social media. I'm a bitter, jaded old fan. I hate the crowd doing dueling chants. I hate the heels being funny & getting laughs. I hate the fans knowing it's all a work & these are just "entertainers" & thanking them for being entertaining. I'd give anything for a wrestler to show up that doesn't give a damn about PC, getting sued or trying to sell more goddamn shirts... but that'll never happen. Pro-wrestling has been changed forever.

Lita is bad at everything. I'm not sure what's wrong with her on the talking panels but she always sounds drunk to me. I'm not a fan of WWE introducing all of these talking panels anyway... unless they're willing to bring back Legends of Wrestling to WWE Network. That show was great.

I'm looking forward to Reigns/Rusev. Also, I want Cesaro/Sheamus to win the tag titles, I don't even care.

On the Legends of Wrestling show with JBL on WWE Network, Scott Hall said he was going to be Laser.

Wow! I have never even heard of that 1992 tape before. I was familiar with the 1992 World Tour tape, which I had & it was terrible. This card is sick though! I don't think I've seen any of these matches before.
