C.S.

Exactly how I feel. Not everything worked, but almost all of it had stakes and felt meaningful and impactful. That's more than I can say for most WWE shows.

Was he always barefoot or did I miss a spot?

I wish they had taken it one step further by removing the AEW logos from the screens, or at least changing it to a black AEW logo with "non-sanctioned" underneath or something like that, killing the colorful lights by the entrance, etc.

Right, but I meant in this thread. BTW, who is Omega supposed to be? Looks so familiar, but I can't quite put my finger on it.

Unless I missed a post here, no mention of the amazing Ken and Ryu Street Fighter gear the Bucks are rocking tonight?

A star-making match for Darby Allin.

WTF kind of crazy-ass bump was that!!!

Well, he is wearing DX colors.

I didn't love it, only because the winner was such a forgone conclusion that it made me hard for me to get into the match.

He's still "cute" though...

They have Finn Balor.

That was a damn good match. MOTN so far!

A friend of mine speculated that the weird shit at the beginning was on purpose "because they find that stuff funny."

My feed just went to hell for about a minute there.

Shhh!

Who is that gross thong spot supposed to appeal to?

Anyone else's feed just die?

This is bad. And yet I'm intrigued by this awful baby oil gimmick.

I had to walk away for a few minutes after the Shh-fest and missed the entire match. Anything worth revisiting? Any big developments? Good match?

I don't get the documentary stuff at all.

So, Jim Ross and Alex Marvez only work the big shows, or does the pre-show have different commentators? I can't remember if that was the case for Double or Nothing.

Okay, so no point watching this on my new bedroom Roku Ultra then. Thanks. I hope there's a way for B/R Live to monitor these types of issues and correct them in real time.

Is the feed pixelating every 30 seconds or a minute for you guys? I'm watching on my old living room Roku 3 which is a bit long in the tooth but still works.

I think The Usos should have been fired and belong in prison for attempted murder, but that's a whole other debate. Of course WWE is going to be hypocritical and turn a blind eye to certain people while bringing down the guillotine on others like Swann. That's unfortunately the way the world at large works. To be fair though, WWE supposedly does have a zero tolerance policy now when it comes to domestic disputes. Even when Kevin Nash had a domestic incident (with his son, I believe), he was immediately suspended pending an investigation - and that's Triple H's boy we're talking about. As for Swann, I am not really sure what happened there. Keep in mind that there was apparently some incident with Drew and his wife years back, and no one is quick to label him. By all means we should take domestic incidents seriously - I would never want to excuse anything like that away - but I don't know enough about the Swann and Drew situations to offer an informed opinion, so all I can say is I hope the women involved are okay and not stuck in an abusive relationship (whatever happened with Drew and his girlfriend/wife, they're no longer together at least).

It isn't just you. I can't stand Callihan. (I freely admit I haven't watched his Impact run though.) As for Swann, does this make him more attractive to WWE for another run there? Better yet, would he even want to go back and be stuck in 205 purgatory again? Or does his past as a domestic abuser, or whatever happened in that car with his wife, make him Kryptonite to major companies?
