What the fuck is Seth wearing

Bruh, Montez Ford slamming Otis was INSANE. They are giving such a fun show for this crowd and they are eating it all up. Lovely episode so far.

This is some top, top tier soap opera shit, bubbas. I expected to eat, but got a whole damn feast!

This fucking dynamic, guys. It's just the best. Crowd is eating all of this up.

8 Man Tag super fucking overdelivered. HEY LOOK THE USOS ARE FUCKING OVER

Mia Yim is getting over, baybee. A respectfully looking girl who' cool and hits hard? Hell yes

Rousey had kickass matches with Alexa Bliss and Nia Jax, bubbas. Her first run was as good as you could possible ask for from what essentially was a rookie. It feels like she just doesn't give a single flying fuck anymore. She got the money, has a family now, and cannot be arsed to take stupid bumps - which obviously creates a conumdrum when Shotzi relies on big stupid bumps to get her matches over. She just ain't there, and certainly the superstar shine she previously had is long gone. I actually enjoy her heel duo with Shayna, and it does have tremendous presence, but she just ain't giving the audience shit.

Such bullshit Also KO might have ruptured Roman's ear drum. Only fair he breaks his legs now.

The thing is that while Seth was champ, Roman was feuding with people like Big Show and Bray Wyatt, with his matches being the best ones in the card and always making the crowd turn around and cheer him. Dude was a scapegoat for the crowd's frustrations of not pushing Bryan, yet made the most out of it. Truly a man who is capable of beating all the odds.

I think having ROH there at all was a mistake. The only person who benefitted from that making tv and becoming this sort of 2nd brand was, check this out, Chris Jericho. FTR getting those ROH tag belts on a great match was good, but didn't really elevate them as it pertains to the AEW tag division. Bald may be hurt, Acclaimed caught fire, but the fact remains that they might as well walk around with no belts. Mercedes Martinez is the champ. Barely featured. No one really cares, which is a shame. Joe is the TV champ, and just got the TNT title. He's walking around with two belts yet just the TNT title would be enough.

They did make references to her stint with Bray some weeks ago too, but the issue is that Wyatt was nowhere to be seen at Survivor Series, not even with video glitches or something like that. It was jarring that she was that noticeably annoyed. Sasha Banks levels of pouty face.

Why the fuck would HHH hire Kendrick back? Surely ideological alignment can't be the only reason; EC3 would've been back already if that were the case. Surely this Jerry Horne-looking fucker wasn't someone they desperately needed, right?

Alexa looked like she couldn't give less of a fuck when her team won. I doubt it was a concussion or anything, she just seems so fucking done - either with WWE or wrestling altogether.

Is that man going to talk to Lula in 2023 or nah?

It's a match that relies on storyline beats a bit, yes. Following Sami character's growth from week to week, Jey being distrustful of him, KO trying to put some sense into his head etc, has been fucking awesome. Like, Jey finally hugging Sami got one of the loudest pops of the night. While a casual viewer could understand what the character dynamics are based on the match/promo package, the weekly build certainly helped it. Not a great show, to be honest. The main event delivered, as this storyline is EASILY the best thing going on in wrestling at the moment, and the opener was a fun romp.

Incredible piece of business, bubbas. Roman Reigns has beat the odds once again.

GET HIM, SAMI

Drew is a big, big man.

SAMI GONNA HELP JEY LET'S FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOO

Jey getting his ass beat because of Sami fucking up is some great storytelling.

Best part is that his knowledge drops are RELEVANT to the matches.

Solo has bad mofo vibes. Should be the first NXT 2.0 dude to have a WWE Title reign.

THE BLOODLINE, CARALHO

They were showing some sort of career retrospective. Did the same with Brock (complete with Dana White and UFC footage) and Liv Morgan.

The Miz being this successful and this good while never really shaking off the stigma of being a reality TV star is impressive.
