Definitely came off flatter than expected, but I suppose it'd been telegraphed for too long. Good on them. Hope everyone is happy. Curious how long they've been engaged.

I don't watch The Bachelor, but the wife does. All hands on deck for the season finale.

Twitter is easier than refreshing these days.

What is that one?

Jeff Hardy is insane. That was incredible fun.

Pretty much. Talk was it was sometime over the next month.

Charlotte is the BEST.

WOW. Did not expect that kind of surprise at Mania.

Undoubtedly a match I'll knock a quarter star from when I rewatch later in the year, but that was terrific. Just too short. If it could borrow 3 minutes from each of of the first two matches we'd have the MOTN.

That was awesome but way too quick. Still terrific almost the entire way even with the sudden finish. ****1/4 may be a tad high but I loved that.

More terrific action through 2 eliminations, but that one was too quick for my taste. Hopefully these 2 get some real time.

I'm saying it again and I hope I say it a few more times. This match is absolutely everything it should be thus far.

YES! That was the absolute perfect opening to this match.

Shut up. Pour more wine, plate more cheese and sack up. You aren't the one still suffering through the self-conscious epic that is Jericho vs Owens. Exactly what I feared, even the undercard matches are going overlong and aiming at looking *big* instead of just being efficient. These two lost me completely. As stupid as Shane vs AJ was, it was at least kinda fascinating to watch in its absurdity. Stick with it through the Raw women. Already very well done.

Fuck it all, I love how this match is laid out not even 120 seconds in.

That is exactly how you open this match.

Scratch that. Sasha with the money entrance.

Yes, apparently unless the champ's entrance requires certain gimmicks.

Shut up. Pour more wine, plate more cheese and sack up.

Raw women this early? Smackdown women slotted as bathroom break?

I'll give them credit for a solid finish. But that match was too long, and heatless because of the work rather than the crowd. **1/2? 3/4?

Just. a. match. Some fun spots to make it more than TV, but there is nothing that makes this violent, special or the culmination of any kind of prolonged feud.

Officially 1 hour in and 1 match has finished. This show may or may not finish by the time the office opens tomorrow.

AJ vs. Shane -- ***1/4 Absurd, but well done and AJ bumped hard to make it work. Finish puts it over the top.

You're crazy. Absolutely crazy.
