Maybe you'd think WWE was being clever and having Sheamus and Cesaro fight and call that a Bar fight, but nope. It's the lovely Jeff Hardy angle.

Speaking of lovely angles, Naomi will be on Miz TV and probably get embarrassed for people tweeting in support of her.

On the bright side, Bayley and Sasha Banks have a message for us! So that'll be fun!

Starting off with Sasha and Bayley is the right call.

So if Sasha doesn’t hold the Raw Championship officially... why did Stephanie make a match where the title can change hands on DQ or count out? That seems to benefit Sasha, not Auska

High praise calling Alexa a future hall of famer.

I liked the look on their faces when their plan worked and Nikki pushed Alexa.

Now I remember why I don’t watch these shows live. 2 commercial breaks and it’s only 18 minutes in.

I feel like AEW always goes the entire first segment through the match without commercials.

Bayley and Sasha are loving amazing, goddamn.

Why wouldn't Alexa throw the match? She wasn't getting a shot if she won.

Is it selfish that I hope Alexa and Nikki feud now purely so I can be sure that Bayley stays champion?

No, Bayley said she'd defend against the winner.

I think Bayley's gonna stay champ for a while. There really isn't anyone (besides Sasha) who is on her level. Naomi could be. Or if they wanted to put Shayna against her, that might work.

At one point on commentary Bayley said,"I guess I'll be defending against Alexa..." so I think the implication (never outright stated?) was that whoever won got the shot, even though the match was put together as "Nikki gets a shot if she beats Alexa."?

Wait why are they doing this at ringside? And there are no fans around? Was this pre-taped or taped after the show was in the can or something?

It's the PC so one of the backstage areas they use regularly has a ring behind it.

I think it's "backstage" where some practice rings are? But yeah it looked weird.

So I guess the answer to 'what happened to Braun' is that vince hasn't decided yet.

Just have it so when Bryan comes back he's the champ and that's that.

I've been involved in a number of cults, both as a leader and a follower.

You have more fun as a follower. But you make more money as a leader.
