I enjoyed the opening and closing segments. Not that the rest was bad per se, but anything with Evil Uno is automatically an eye roll for me, and over exposure to OC hurt what was a better than expected match with Jarrett.

Actually I hate to say it, but Jarrett has been pretty good in his role thus far. I didn't expect that, but we'll see how that goes.

The Outcasts thing is just lame to me. WWE already wore me out on the whole "you fans" heel crap. You then also have Britt and Hayter looking like dumbasses by taking on 3 people, only so they can be saved by a 90 pound child, who somehow scares all 3 heels off when they could fart and knock her over.

The QTV segment was so bad. Hobbs doesn't need to be dragged into weak **** like that... Just let him come out and kick ass every couple weeks or so. Why is Tony so bad at this thing with his big men?

I really didn't want more Moxley-Hangman ****, but it looks like it's leading to Hangman reuniting with the Elite, which I think he desperately needs. Get him away from the comedy group and let him be a serious contender again. Could we get BCC vs Hangman and the Elite? Sign me the **** up for that.

Agree on the outcasts and the qtv stuff. Not good.

I'm not big of evil uno or the DO but last night was a good use of them IMO.

IIRC, he didn't bleed in the Evil Uno match, but Evil Uno did. :lol:

I can't find the tweet now, but Moxley bladed at the AEW house show.

Apparently he replaced booze with self harm. It's really out of control.

Yea, it's pretty much time to get him under control with the stuff. Does he not realizes it loses meaning if he's doing it every single time?

Yeah Mox blades way too much. Like everyone says...when you do it all the time it loses its luster. TK should be the one telling him to reel that in.

Inflating attendance is a professional wrestling tradition. The famous 93,173 attendance at Wrestlemania 3 was actually around 78,500. The Silverdome couldn't even hold more than 88k or so, which was the actual indoor attendance record set by the Pope's visit. Funny enough, the Silverdome had to lie about the Pope's attendance thanks to Wrestlemania 3's inflated number. They changed the Pope's 88k number to 93,682 just to beat the fake Mania number.

Anytime the WWE announced an attendance number, I just assume it's fake.

Adam Cole is the next person to get stuck in a JAS feud for the next 6 months.

Why do I have a bad feeling this Outcast crap is leading to a women's blood and guts match that will include Riho?

Yep. I don't have a problem with him wrestling Garcia in a bubble, but we all know where this is headed. Also, Garcia has the charisma of a wet sock on the mic. At least he doesn't sound like a Looney Tune when he talks like Yuta?

No clue who this vikingo dude is but this match with Omega has been crazy good so far.

Please please please let Kenny have a singles run.

I'm speechless after that main. Omega is Omega but Vikingo wow.

Just balls to the wall and I'm not sure how either didn't get seriously injured....and all on free tv. Just amazing.

I know they're setting up for a war games type situation, but Kenny needs to remain a singles competitor going forward. He should be in the hunt for the title at almost all times. This route probably saves his body, and that's fine. Just sucks how good he is individually and we don't get to see it much.

I know this is besides the point, but red white & blue ropes just feel right.

I just realized that he did that 630 splash through the table by spring boarding off the SECOND rope. He also hit another flippy move (maybe a 540, I don't **** know) from standing on the apron outside of the ring, jumping over the top rope, then spring boarding off the second. That match was insane and extremely impressive that the 39 year old Omega could hang with him.

Looking this over, about half the card is matches I literally give zero **** about. The other half should be good to great, but there's a lot of filler.

So many multi person/team matches, did Tony Khan sneak into the booking meeting?

Oh boy Charlotte vs. Rhea for like the 40th time. Charlotte is gonna lose it so she can get it back and add to her title count.

On one hand, it’s nice not to see tons of matches with part timers and celebrities. On the other, remove some of these no build matches and give me a one night 4-5 hour show. This feels like throwaway matches just to fill out two shows.

I just realized that WM is this weekend. Providing that I'm home, I might flip on and off of it. But I agree with TWC, I could give less than zero f's about most of this card.

There are maybe 3-4 matches that I might be interested in. But the rest of it? Meh, whatever.

I wouldn't be surprised if they added another 2-3 matches to fill time during the preshow. Also, did they stop doing the Andre battle royal?
