The best part was the post match promo where Gage lowered his head for a second and blood spurted everywhere and I think some of it landed on some guy outside the ring.

Second best part was picking broken glass out of my mustache.

Third best part was a fan showering Gage with confetti at the start of the match.

Just the dumbest spectacle. All that blood and glass was beautiful. I wish I had a fancy camera to capture all of it.

Personally I'd say HM for KUSHIDA vs Ospreay in the BOSJ Final, though I can see how the post-match celebration might have pushed it over the edge for some.

He did the meathooks spot on the Nazi but the crew knew the Nazi had to cost Zandig the match so they let him down and the Nazi used the weedwacker on Zandig.

But the Nazi stayed up there basically the whole match so that was cool. I am down with Nazis being paid $50 to be hit in the head with light tubes and be hung from meathooks for 10 minutes. Hopefully next time there's lots of chairs to the head.

Yes. So good. Second. Have a clip featuring light tubes and the progressive ring crew setting up the next spot. Also me loudly OH-HO-HO-HO-HOing.

They ignored the "whoever gets the stick first gets to use it legally for the match" stip, the build was based on "can Bayley get extreme to win her title back" and then the payoff was her being too meek to use a weapon and the match was a short, bad squash to top it all off. Nth.

Negro Navarro is 59 years old. The match is entirely old style lucha mat work but ZSJ has the modern version of that skillset. The selling and facial expressions are tremendous, the pace is good, the crowd is into it. Might not be for everyone, but I loved it.
