Well if you like WWE garbage matches you're in for a treat.

So apparently Kota Ibushi is now a free agent. interesting

I dug the women's tag, Jericho/Styles, and the main event which was awesome. Roman vs HHH is D.O.A for a Mania main event feud fuck off with that and do Roman vs Brock.

My only interest in this show is from a booking standpoint seeing as it will set up Mania. If they do the predictable, Roman wins after the Wyatts attack Brock then I really can't see myself caring about much heading into Mania.

Sting in his first baby face run. I heard he got better in TNA, and he was pretty good in WWE.

Taker vs Goldberg would make me give even less of a fuck about Mania, and I didn't think that was possible. Seriously is there anybody out there that wants to see 50 year old Taker vs 49 year old Goldberg in one of the main events to fucking WrestleMania. They didn't bother using Goldberg worth a shit 13 years ago when they actually could've made money off him.

I'd have 2001 as Austin's best in ring year.

Pro wrestling is so much better when the babyfaces are universally over. Cena is Cena I don't think you're going to get that 50/50 reaction where both sides are passionate from anyone else. Bryan made WWE so much better because of how loved he was. The reason NXT is so enjoyable is because nearly all the faces are over. If Bayley and Zayn starting getting 50/50 shades of grey reactions it would have quite a negative effect on my enjoyment of the product.

This sounds like something that's been building for a while with Vince being rubbed the wrong way by the millennials. No more fun and games sports entertainment is serious business god damnit.

Right now Brock facing Ambrose, and elevating him in defeat for being a tough SOB sounds like a better use of Brock than knocking Bray Wyatt back to the midcard after Mania for the third year in a row. I think Bray needs a win, and he isn't getting one against Brock.

This feud was the reason I started watching Raw more than Nitro. Definitely on my short list of all time favorites.

The main event between Bayley and Carmella and the post match angle was great stuff. The women's title match in Dallas could steal the whole weekend.

The backstage attack by the NWO(the one with the Rey Jr. dart throw) on the July 29 1996 Nitro comes to mind.

The guy has some great matches, but his batting average is about .050. He's had maybe two singles matches since the first quad injury that I liked.

Could they have made Roman and Dean look like bigger geeks there?

How stupid are they not to bring Bryan out first?

Yeah because the most over baby face in wrestling at the time didn't do any of that stuff.

I thought about Taker/AJ, but they would really have to build up Styles over the next several weeks. I think that's the best case scenario for Taker having a good match and coming out healthy, but it's an awfully big/coveted spot to give to a guy that just walked in the door. Anything beats Stroman though who may be the worst guy in either WWE or NXT.

Rock has a net worth of 160 million I'm pretty sure he'd be ok in life if he told WWE to get fucked.

I think they need to combine the Brock and Taker matches into a tag. Taker vs Stroman has disaster written all over it. Kane and Taker already killed the Wyatts so IDK why they think anyone will give a fuck about any of this. This is the third year in a row Bray is built up to be fed to a bigger star at Mania lol. They still have shit like Jericho vs Ambrose, whatever time filler stuff the Rock does, and a ladder clusterfuck to add. NXT's show is going to kill this.

I don't think it's a case of no one else on the roster knowing what to in that situation as much as it is if they do what they should do they'll end up in the dog house. The Rock has no fucks to give the WWE needs him a hell of a lot more than he needs them.

Punk broke down the doors for all the indy guys that followed. He made a ton of money, and was at one point 1B to Cena's 1A, and out selling him in merchandise. I'd say his WWE career was a massive success. He turned out to be a much better fit in the WWE style than he was trying to do indy movez he wasn't athletic enough to do. He was at the time he left the best big match worker in the company. His promos were never as great as the ones he cut on the indies, but he still had the most memorable promo of the last 10 years in WWE.

"Starting to find out what fits him" shouldn't be describing a two time WrestleMania main eventer. It'll be extremely difficult for him to overcome the obstacles booking has placed in front of him.

I get that Jericho called the match on Raw on the fly, and things can get clucky when doing that. However that doesn't excuse his Sid at War Games 1991 level of business exposing spot calling. They had to shut the sound off at one point. He was facing the hard cam calling spots without even trying to cover his mouth it was amateur hour. That was a big part of the reason I called him horrible in that match.

There's two matches at NXT Dallas(the one listed in the spoiler above and the women's title match) that I'm looking forward to more than anything at Mania, and you could probably add the tag title match to that list as well. Mania has it's work cut out not getting shown up by NXT Mania weekend.
