I'm enjoying this match. Its good given the inherent advantages and limitations. But its not great. I'm also not sure how it benefits Reigns but that's probably not necessary at this stage.

Can't LA Knight suck without Bill DeMott being right about anything? I may be old but I'm not too old to know that "Yeah" dude is mid.

They snap back as hard as you snap into them. Or tease them with some falsehoods. Or some nonsense like that.

Ask Alex Jones when he presents Elimination Chamber. At 5AM Eastern time next month, folks!

I'm stoked for Bayley but it feels like this is their attempt to recreate Sami from last year, only she has a fraction of the momentum he did. And that may be kind. But I'm looking forward to the return of the hugger (apologies to Luis Mante & Hyo). What about Jade/Bianca vs. Kabuki Warriors at Mania?

We're progressive now, mmkay?!

It will not happen but one can easily make a case for Stratton winning this thing.

At a minimum in spirit. Mrs. Jericho is 31.

For the win! But she's not coming alone. Probably with 80% of the rest of the match?

I'm here to be spooked. But Alba Fyre being relegated to some mid-90s Superstars hokey gimmick is an underplayed travesty. She should at worst be in the mix at the top of the division and someone that can be relied upon to deliver the goods whether babyface or heel against anyone.

Definitely possible. But I'm thinking Nia dumps Becky and Bayley dumps Nia to win. We shall see!

This is a fact. Certainly a net positive.

Likely less than nothing. But they made me want the match. Would run it if I still bought those dumb video games or had TNM on my computer like the good old days.

Grace clearly didn't get the memo to keep it light and breezy on offense. Her vs. Belair at Mania, right?

We may be old but that 18-24 demo is just figuring things out.

Rhea. Respectfully. As if that's even possible here. But god bless.

That's the first time I recall them going out of their way to ID him as Paul Levesque on TV.

The company sucks. The people in charge (and perhaps up and down the line) are awful and should be imprisoned if not excommunicated from civil society. But I don't have many hobbies left if I quit wrestling so here we are. Hypocrisy is great when I need it! LFG! Should be a super fun show with a couple drinks and snacks to power us through.

Shouldn't an MCL allow him sufficient time to recover for Mania? Perhaps some smoke & mirrors along the way but I don't believe that should force him to miss the big show.

This is entirely accurate. He looks more motivated than ever in this country outside of the early NXT days. But he still looks like a shell of his NJ run. The man lives the book of Rasheed Wallace and is here to CTC.

It looks like this was originally from 9/20/1986.

My goodness was this ever true. Outside of a brief moment early when Suzuki cared to show any activity on the mat and a couple brief spurts of intensity on the striking this was just boring. It felt worse given the expectations of these two squaring off as the work wasn't technically awful, but rather felt like both were sleepwalking through it most of the time.

That's one way to get Motoko over.

Surprisingly little chatter for someone with as many stops and main events as Cozy. He's putting together a pretty terrific run on the senior circuit with a triple crown challenge against Aoyagi and pulling a legitimately very good match out of Tom Lawlor, who I generally have little use for. One night hardly makes a GWE case but *that* G1 match against Okada remains one of the most memorable matches of the era. Where are folks on Kojima these days?

Do I want to grab a ticket to MSG tonight? Feels like a fun show but as of now would have to fly solo and can't say I'm feeling like I have to do it.
