At least the show was unpredictable. I tried to guess the winners beforehand and only got three of them right (the two tag team title matches and the mixed tag team match). Sure there were a couple of more matches that you could have gotten right if you used your brain more than me (or followed WWE more closely), but there were a lot of surprise winners tonight. Not the best thing in all cases, of course... So, caffeine and sugar are wearing off, time to get some sleep.

The first third had the IC and US title matches. Maybe those matches overperformed, but there is no chance that the first third was great.

So how many guys were on the card that should never have been cleared if the LA AC took its job serious? 4? (I am thinking of Angle, Shane, Nicholas and Brock) Whoever was the agent of the main event should be fired, that match would have died a horrible death even in an arena setting at a "normal" 4 h (incl. pre-show) PPV. At least the trolling at the end was funny, when they played out Reigns while he was walking to the back teasing a big surprise at the end.

Yep. I'm the best. Thanks for the thread guys. The sun has risen already. I've got mixed feeling... go to bed or get a breakfast ? Really? I am living east of you and it is still pitch-dark here.

He's not tall enough to reach the tag rope. WWE really did bribe the hell out of the athletic commission. Serious question, are pro-wrestling events still under state commission authorities these days? In Louisiana they are. Before the weekend they tried to put the hammer on the smaller (i.e. non-WWE and non-ROH) shows by banning stuff like the piledriver. At the Joey Janella show they made fun of that by having a wrestler hit a piledriver on "the Invisible Man" (it is what you expect by that name) and getting DQed and thrown out the building for that.

I hope so, otherwise this was one of the weirdest things I have ever seen.

Someone in WWE recently saw that Judy Bagwell was a WCW tag team champion and was thinking of a way to top that.

I shouldn't have put 'shrooms on my pizza.

Louisiana AC, please put a stop on this.

That would have been awesome if he would have packed Minoru Suzuki, this is bad.

During this match I had my mind wandering. Some thoughts I had: - It would have been awesome if they Styles the Balor LGBT-inclusion entry. - They should split Wrestlemania into two 4 hour shows instead of one 7 hour show, one on Saturday, one on Sunday. The way everything is set up now it should be no problem and be profitable enough. Either that or stop trying to put everyone on the roster on the show.

I was doing fine until about 45 minutes ago, now I am spent. Strange booking having both Royal Rumble winners lose.

Cole had a great line last Raw. Graves was trying to make a point that Miz returning to in-ring action after a couple of weeks off might actually be good for him and Cole answered: "Coach was off 10 years and still is awful." (I think it was Cole and Graves in that order, might misremembering it a bit)

That spot close to the end where Bliss' head was bumping to the turnbuckle looked terrifying. Hopefully she did not get a concussion or anything.

5 matches, Lesnar vs. Reigns, AJ vs. Nakamura, Bliss vs. Jax, DB & Shane vs. KO & Sami and Cesaro & Sheamus vs. Braun & X. Jesus. They will get close to 12 AM ET, they have blocked as much time in the Network schedule.

The bar is already pretty high considering the pop the gong got.

5 matches, Lesnar vs. Reigns, AJ vs. Nakamura, Bliss vs. Jax, DB & Shane vs. KO & Sami and Cesaro & Sheamus vs. Braun & X.

We are almost 5 hours in and all three announcers' tables are still intact.

Going 3 minutes instead of 23 minutes helps. Everything about this was awesome, until the bell rang, that is. I loved Elias teasing The House of the Rising Sun and not delivering.

Tell Rousey to stay away from the WWE make-up department. If bad booking won't kill her (and it did NOT do tonight) then that will. Though Angle's left eye in the end looked disgusting too.

It is That Indian Guy. Respect my brand, damnit. Exactly what one French announcer said. Clearly early. Makes me wish I had paid more attention in French class. (I will never switch to German audio either as long as Carsten Schaefer is announcing. At least I can mentally turn off the horrible English commentary.) By the way: please call up Percy Watson and replace Coach with him. Coach has to be the worst WWE commentator ever, and that covers A LOT OF ground.

5-10 years ago everyone was going for the Chinese market, now it's the Indian market because lot's of management people get boners just thinking about 1 billion+ potential customers (or, looking at it from a stock market point-of-view, product), not having any idea about the cultural or economical situations in that countries.

On the positive side neither Orton nor Roode won, on the negative side "the Indian guy"™ won.

Haha, they still opened the show with a PPV disclaimer stating that you can only legally watch the show if you payed a fee to a "cable company or similar entity" (or something like that) after pushing for two hours how the show is free (for new subscribers, that is).

She sounds like a chain-smoker.
