I'm at the point where I'm kinda relived that Punk doesn't take shit so seriously and personally anymore, lol. Cena's promo on Smackdown was a fun callback to the Pipebomb -much more tongue in cheek and "fun", of course- and I'm sure that Punk was more than ok with the segment in itself. But him being laid out there for 7 minutes looking old and having to sell for so long while Cena kept going on, calling him Mr. TKO, a millionaire and a capitalist and basically making Punk -the babyface- look like complete shit, legit surprised me. That's the kind of thing Punk would've probably tried to change not that long ago and would've made a big fuss about not getting his way, causing backstage problems. Now he seems ok with just going with it even though this angle clearly seems like WWE/HHH making him look pretty bad.

Yeah, I wanted to watch something special and got exactly that.

Crowd has been great all show and they really got the assignment for this main event, dios mío.

That would probably push a lot of tickets in Texas. But I do wonder if CMLL is gonna get that match instead.

Que soy yo quien te llooooraaaa What an entrance!

This show better become a yearly tradition.

What are the chances that Atlantis Jr. turns heel on his dad and gets his mask in an apuestas match in the near future? these fans might light arena mexico on fire lmao.

Maaaan, MJF should've put his hair on the line for this one. Místico getting the W and Max crying like a baby while getting his head shave would've been a legit huge, memorable moment.

Hangman's spanish is legit impressive. I did laugh at "perro" instead of "pero" but that's just me being an ass, lol.

The Cibernetico match looks insane as well. I can only imagine the amount of ~!'s DEAN would be throwing at it.

Couldn't last more than 1 day without his Tribal Chief before crashing out, poor Paul.

The right guy won but after last year's fireworks, that was an underwhelming as fuck ending.

Nick Khan doing damage control at ringside was wild

STONE GOAT motherfuckers.

Only way I see the main event sucking is if they go too long and not let the crowd carry the match. Which is a real possibility to be honest. I hope they have top notch fuckery like they did for last year but who knows at this point.

For all the talk about Mania prices being insanely expensive (and they were, no doubt), that stadium looks fucking jam packed. The sold like 10k tickets in the last week or something?

Can't speak on the match as a whole but those last 6 minutes of the opener was probably the best finishing stretch I've ever seen on a triple threat. Those three are gonna be remembered for a long time with that opener.

Ahhh, that's were it was. I went to the lucha sub forum and got depressed at how empty it was, lmao.

Man, this news having barely any traction here and basically none at DVDVR really shows how these boards are truly dead

Darby starts his Everest climb next week it takes about 2 months to do the whole thing (acclimatization, getting to base base camp, descent, etc.). So if anything, he could be back with like 4-6 Dynamites left before All In 2025. If for some dumb ass reason Darby is still the end goal of this atrocious fucking angle, he still ain't winning the belt at All In.

The fact they introduced the Bucks, an act fans have been pretty clear in not giving a flyng fuck about for about 2 years now, to this angle is dumbfounding. How the hell is TK dumb enough to copy the "be mad at the company to get heat" formula that never worked for WWE?

This Moxley shit has really reached late 2010's Vince McMahon levels of "fuck this company" booking. How can the payoff for this be worth it at this point?

I truly hope this Goto run is being used to reign down on match length. All his title matches have been shorter than 25 minutes and I fucking love that.

They probably went to AEW thinking they could get a Cody-type boost in their stardom as well, lol. I hope Rusev can a get a good push and he takes full advantage of it before going to shit, as he tends to do

Yeah, I'm like wtf reading some of these posts. If you didn't like the segment for whatever reason(s) that's ok, but acting like it wasn't smash hit and wont mean both an entertaining angle and continuing WWE's current boom is baffling.
