Jesus I kept thinking "well, I could make a thread, but my OP wouldn't be very good, so I'll just wait to see who does it"

I at least went through the trouble of copy-pasting the card from elsewhere

quote:

Cesaro vs. Kevin Owens
Sheamus vs. Randy Orton
Ryback vs. The Miz vs. Big Show (Intercontinental Championship)
Team B.A.D. vs. Team PCB vs. Team Bella
Dolph Ziggler vs. Rusev
Neville and Stephen Amell vs. Stardust and King Barrett
Roman Reigns and Dean Ambrose vs. Luke Harper and Bray Wyatt
The Prime Time Players vs. The New Day vs. Los Matadores vs. The Lucha Dragons (Tag Team Championships)
John Cena vs. Seth Rollins (WWE World Heavyweight and United States Championships)
Undertaker vs. Brock Lesnar

Also The New Day is on the preshow

It's so weird seeing this arena on TV after I was there yesterday

during the preshow, I would like to get my favorite digression out of the way early: what're you eating and drinking tonight??

I am eating a grilled chicken salad (ranch dressing because I have the palate of a child), and I just went out and bought a six-pack of Sixpoint Bengali (I was going to get the Crisp but it was sold out at literally 3 different stores, what the hell)

Fun fact: the other major arena in NYC, Madison Square Garden, is currently hosting a League of Legends tournament final.

It is a sold-out show.



This is a good weekend for "sports" in this city.

it hasn't happened yet, we're still in the pre-preshow part of the preshow

Yeah Takeover was loving cool



Their graphics packages were awesome too, I especially liked that the code snippets they used to make everything look high-tech were copy pasted from WWE.com's ads javascript and HTML

I'm gonna be really sad if the tag match isn't on the show at all and we get no New Day

Yesterday every single hallway of the Barclays Center was echoing with New Day chants

From the moment we were cattle-herded into the doors to the subway train platform at the end of the night, I kept hearing intermittent New Day claps, chants, and AAAAAAYYYYs.

If they cut this match they are even dumber than we give them credit for. If they put it on the show, it's one of the smartest decisions they've ever made.
