None whatsoever. He's clearly below the AJ Big 3 for me. But will also likely end up ahead of Taue. The thought was more reflective of my thinking on him than others. Haven't gone back to much Jumbo in a while, which is something I plan on doing. Possible he'll slip out of my top 10 but he's right in that mix. He's just likely out of the top 5.

Misawa, Kawada, Kobashi, Flair, Danielson. Those are the only names I'd put above Taue without having to think about it. While I don't expect him to come in at #6, its looking like 12-15 may be the absolute floor.

What I don't get is Reigns being tossed so conclusively before the finish. How does that build towards Hunter-Reigns at Mania?

Nope, just that gimmick sucks. And Bray isn't that good in the ring compared to others on the roster. That too.

Thought they milked the HHH-Reigns confrontation very well there.

Nope, just that gimmick sucks.

Would they turn Reigns heel here? Don't understand having a babyface disappear for this long. Edit -- nevermind, not like there's a face on the roster he could be paired with anyways.

Ugh. Wyatt nonsense. Hate this.

So Owens has programs with AJ, Zayn & still Ambrose coming out of this? Just hope it doesn't result in a 3 or 4 way.

YES!

Much as I don't like AJ being slotted there, that is how you get rid of him if you're not keeping him around till the finish.

Is it just me or does Styles look hurt?

Taylor Swift? Too easy.

Very pleased they didn't change up his gear, gimmick, name, finisher, nothing. They let the 2015 wrestler of the year come in as is.

And his entrance music immediately vaults into elite status with Sasha & Bayley.

STYLES! #3 no less. This is interesting.

Post-match more than made up for the match, which was a major letdown and I thought vastly inferior to their Raw outing a couple weeks back.

They can't job a new outfit, can they?

Apparently on an island here but New Day's ship has sailed. Not only did they not clear the shark on first jump, they fell into its jaws and were spit out on the other side.

As mentioned elsewhere, my thoughts afterwards were just how much more this could've been with more selling and psychology and slowing things down just a notch. But nitpicks aside, this was about as a great as a match of this style can be. They were pulling off spots and counters in such rapid-fire succession that you can't help but be amazed. Really looking forward to seeing Ospreay develop. Sky is the limit. ****1/2

That was awesome. Love that those tables came into play and weren't just a tease. Props for the conclusive finish as well.

YEAH! This is how you run a gimmicky spotfest!!

Liking this match a whole lot more than I expected. No putzing around, just some hateful spots and use of weapons. Would like some falls to get over the LMS stip, but that's minor quibbling. Let's see where they take it.

Remind me where Sandow has been since Mania?

Most overrated on the roster if not for Bray.
