There is no sign of land.
You are coming down with me, hand in unlovable hand.

And I hope you die.

I hope we both die.

Just give Crews something, it doesn't even have to be good. Like have him wear a funny hat to the ring and it'll still be better because it'll be something.

You've missed three serious MOTY contenders and at least three that cut it close

Hey WWE

Do you hear that

Crowds like Apollo

Do something about that

According to Ziggler he has to struggle to get any sort of reaction out of Crews when he talks to him backstage. Apollo's just a bland generic talented dude.

Please let this match end with "not a finisher", this crowd is surprisingly great for a pre-show match

To be fair Ziggler would struggle to get any reaction out of anybody ever, at least a reaction that isn't patent disgust.

My friend asked if I wanted to go to this show. I'm so very happy I decided driving to Richmond in back in a night didn't seem like a great idea for a Smackdown-only PPV.

Despite having no personality, Crews is very talented in the ring, I'm not at all surprised that if you give him some time he can put on a good match

of course, jobbing to fuckin Baron Corbin isn't a great sign for what they are doing with him
