That was a really fun match but I never watched Angle and I missed the Shield by a few months. It was a fun silly thing but I understand it was bigger for a lot of you. Really good ppv overall.

Angle was a near perfect mix of excellent wrestler, promo, charisma, goofiness, intense seriousness.

Tonight was one of the best of all time coming back for a good time full of fun nostalgia.

Man everyone was super gentle with Angle.

Wrestlers generally should be gentle with each other :) Entertain us, don't hurt yourself.

And it's a shame that Emma is seemingly eternally slotted in the 'good hand' position, but man she is able to have great matches with everyone and I'm happy she was allowed to have a great match with Asuka.

ACTUALLY IT IS VERY GOOD THAT THE SHOW IS BAD AND ANYONE WHO DOESN'T REALIZE WHY THAT'S GOOD IS AN IDIOT. JUST ENJOY THE BAD SHOW INSTEAD OF THINKING.
That TLC match was a beautiful disaster.

I wouldn't call it 5 stars or anything but good god that was so loving entertaining.

While I skipped over Jordan/Elias, I have to say that I didn't end that PPV being pissed off like I usual am.

Great job WWE?

Faces standing tall is fun! Admittedly, the streak is still alive- no PPV in 18 months has ended with full time face standing tall. But the good guys triumphed and beat the odds!

Overall pretty good, annoyed that Alexa Bliss retained her title(cause she is an incredibly annoying oval office*), and kinda mixed feelings regarding Enzo getting back the title so soon(Kalisto should have held onto the title for at least another month, before losing it)

*at least in her in-ring persona

I like that corey made a point of saying SQUARED CIRCLE because TNA has that hexagon thing.

Of course I guess they forgot the...what was it? WCPW he did in january or whenever it was?

I'm partial to the WM21 match with Michaels due to how good the build to that match was too.

Kurt rising from the dead to slap one last Ankle Lock on HBK was so, so good, even though they kept it going for like 5 minutes.

To be fair, they were consistent about this being his first match 'in a WWE ring' in 11 years, which is true, and only seems like ignoring TNA because 90% of the time WWE acts like a WWE ring is synonymous with a pro-wrestling ring.

I'm also pretty sure TNA went to a square ring for like 3 years while Kurt was there.

Vince: "It's OK because he wasn't wearing the goofy make-up so he's a jobber!"

It also took them less than 24 hours to turn Asuka from WCW-Goldberg-but-a-Japanese-lady to WWE-Goldberg-but-a-Japanese-lady.

WWE Goldberg got to do squashes both runs in the company

Remember the EC match where he basically eliminated 3 or 4 people without taking a bump

I think the only one-sided affairs she ever had, if I remember corectly, were versus Carmella and whichever one of the two ditzy teens that are getting a push in NXT. Both?

Anyway, every one of you is either remembering Asuka wrong, or didn't watch NXT to begin with, which is good, cuz NXT is bad. If Asuka just beats people, even cowardly, it will be true to the spirit of her NXT run. She had a period of ducking people and cheating, too.
