Even though I think there is no way Styles is losing the title, I am curious how they are going to handle it. I assume that the finish will be Owens screwing Zayn out of a pinfall and then Zayn screwing Owens so AJ wins. wait Shemaus is 40? Either he started late or his developmental time was so much longer than I remember

If Braun is winning the title they wouldn't waste space with Kane in the match. And if he did by some miracle he did win it is only going to be for a month which is another waste I would assume it is either Reigns, Balor, or Nakamura and everyone else is just there for the show. Since I really have no idea if Rousey is going to be there or not I have no idea who is winning the women's match.

I can live with the result if Ciampa can wrestle at Wrestlemania Takeover. Gargano in babyface peril against the psycho killer is just easy money and an easy main eventer in my opinion. He was limping pretty bad but still a couple months away.

God I hope people in November and December will remember this match when match of the year contenders are out there. Just incredible. Not sure if it is possible to have a better babyface match than Gargano

percy is pretty bad but he has only really been doing this for about a year. Mauro has done this for decades So he is "EC 3" not "EC3". I wonder if he can actually call himself Ethan Carter. Actually never mind forgot TNA allowed them to take their gimmicks with them

God damn it why didn't we get that Killian Dane vs Lars Sullivan match.

I think I like the match better when Black didn't want to use weapons. meanwhile Cole is getting killed by doing moves on weapons in the wrong/worst way possible. No way you could think that ladder spot was smart

I know we are supposed to believe the pro wrestling submission moves aren't as impactful as MMA ones but come on she was in an arm bar for a good 2 minutes. Even if she blocked it a couple times that is completely unrealistic. Especially when your gimmick (not really a gimmick) that you are a legit MMA bad ass. Although I guess I am being a hypocrite because I loved Minoru Suzuki vs Okada last year and there was about 10-15 minutes of Okada selling painful leg submission

Wow someone really doesn't really like Chris Hero. He even mentioned it in that video earlier in the week that he is more of a trainer in the 2nd run of NXT given his experience Gargano entire family in the locker room is interesting.

Well we got one half of the Chikara Devastation Corporation team in the entrance. The mouthguard on a pillow is a great touch Imagine thinking a year ago at this time that Dream would be wrestling the former Chris Hero in Philadelphia and is the most over guy in the match

Well AOP has had its history of sloppily dropping people on power bombs. But in the last year or two that hasn't happened and they have been awesome against both big and small men. They will be on the main roster in the next couple months. The finish was a little clunky but given that his knee was hurt it probably should be.

Kyle O Reilly is awesomely dorky doing the Hulk Hogan playing guitar with the belt thing.

Those matches are always shown on the next TV show Almas needs to be on the main roster just to get Zelina Vega up there. She is even destroying Samoa Joe on commentary

Man if you find Mauro annoying then prepare for tonight because he will be carrying Percy Watson for about 2 1/2 hours. Percy is going to do more than the 50 or 60 words he did at the last Takeover show

It really does depend on whether Ciampa can work at Wrestlemania Takeover. If he can then you have to do the battle of DIY in New Orleans. If he can't work at Wrestlemania then I am not sure where you go with the title match. I think it would be dumb to win the title without shaking his biggest distraction first. By the way go out of your way to see the video on the WWE site of Kassius Ohno and Ember Moon. Really great stuff talking about their career before NXT.

Well back to Superstars/Main Event/whatever for Revival

A few REFUND chants as well in the beginning. You actually had the crowd in the palm of your hands and you went to commercial during Razor's entrance

Come on nobody wants to see the Godfather married. I don't care how sexy she was If I hear anyone call D-Von diving headbutt DILLY DILLY they are getting punched in the dick

Meltzer will not be giving that Elias/Jericho segment 5 stars

God damn Torrie Wilson Yeah Trish is blonde again. Well dirty blonde but much better

And to further prove that this is a 205 Live house show we are getting Bray vs Woken Matt apparently the crowd completely destroyed the cruiserweight matches. Can't imagine the people who went there knew they were getting this.

So apparently the Manhattan Center is basically a 205 Live House show with very few RAW moments. MVP is definitely the most random what the hell is he doing here moment tonight Flair looking at Alexa like an 21 year old at a Baltimore Marriott with a Bob Barker facelift is creepy as fuck

Yes let's show Bryan next to Miz so we can make you feel even worse that we are going to see his match be against Shane instead

Well cool to see Taker in the Manhattan Center but really felt like he was just trying to get his shit finished. He completely blew by the "one more match" chant

Man I hope they put a big screen at the Manhattan Center because it looks like most of the action will be at Brooklyn. Not sure why Teddy Long the Smackdown GM for years is on the show but oh well not like Brother Love was a regular on RAW either
