None of it matters, but this has to be here for an angle that will render the scoreboard meaningless.

Yes, but the son offers nothing and the father hasn't done much in some time. Yeah, those two weeks were probably the best Rey has looked on this run. I'm in the minority on Brock as I almost always look forward to his matches and find most of them fun at worst, but this one didn't even connect with me.

I believe just the women.

Worst Brock match in some time. Very disappointing.

Dominick from Kindergarten Cop was a much more sympathetic babyface.

WWE signed Psycho Clown?

Women closing the show? Call me crazy but that looks a lot like the women closing the Rumble last year. Rousey 2.0 on the way tonight?

Not only that, but Lee sold it and the ensuing cover so well that I thought he had it won. The kickout popped me off the couch. Lee should've won it but the way he lost really shouldn't hurt him at all. Hopefully more to come here.

Walter may have been eliminated too soon but they put him over pretty strongly while he was in there.

To their credit, barring a disastrous decision the show should clock out before 11.

On a more serious note, is there any evidence that the Wyatt/Fiend deal isn't completely flat and perhaps an audience killer? The entrance at Summerslam for his return was hot. Since then, what has he meant for ratings, attendance, merchandise or any metric that matters?

Are the announcers whispering so that they don't wake the crowd?

The more I think about it the more I'm frustrated by the end of the women's match. Shirai and Candice faked an injury because reasons? And they're all heels tonight?

That was legitimately awesome. More of that on TV!

I learned long ago not to hold my breath with this company, but Keith Lee being prominently featured on the go home NXT and Smackdowns is interesting.

This is wild. You need to go watch SNL Kevin Nealon. It'll make you appreciate him on Weeds even more. Then go rewatch WCW again for the rest of us.

We'll see if I call an audible at game time, but as of now leaning towards watching NXT live for the first week since Dynamite launched. TUE/Revival, Cole/DIjak and angles ahead of a two big shows this weekend likely means Fenix/Nick Jackson and the latest from AEW will have to settle for DVR viewing.

This might be the most entertaining Randy Orton I've seen in years and alone justifies his contract.

Update: I made it until one of them broke out a piece of glass to cut the other with. Just not what I watch wrestling for.

Sounds fair. Perhaps I'll give it a shot and see if the mutilation turns me off.

If I can't/won't sit through BJW death matches should I make the time for Omega/Moxley or skip it entirely?

This has nothing to do with WWE and everything to do with said iron currently heating up rather than being hot. I think they can deliver a much better build to Cody winning the title that hopefully builds TV and PPVs along the way. Promising to never challenge for the title again after the match was essentially announced cold following the last PPV? That strikes me as skipping a few steps along the way. If Cody wins the title tonight it should still be a great moment and might very well set up an awesome title reign. He's far and away the biggest star in the promotion so having the title on him is certainly not a bad thing. It just feels a bit rushed given the setup an options on the table for both (a) a longer Jericho run to establish the title and (b) Cody's path to winning it.

Why do you want it moved to Cody at this point?

Looks like I'll be unsubscribing from that one.

What I find perplexing is why Seth Rollins would want to give such attention to Meltzer & the Observer.
