HM: Ember Moon vs. Shayna Baszler, NXT Takeover: New Orleans, 4/7

Literally the worst loving spot to be in and they got the crowd back into it and had a drat good match.

The question is now open: Will this entire event have a single match that ISN'T HM quality or better?

I say no.

Yes a really great match. Bad finish IMO but it doesn�t dull the stellar work for me

yeah if they'd gotten another 5 minutes and had a better execution on the same booked finish I'd have called it a MOTYC

You know what, gently caress it, I'm drunk and full of wings

HM: Ronda Rousey/Kurt Angle vs. HHH/Stephanie McMahon, Wrestlemania

Was it hte most technically great match? No.

Was it an extremely, extremely fun spectacle? Absolutely, and there's a place at the table for that kind of cornball fun in my book at the HM table.

Best women's title match on NXT for quite some time, and a rollercoaster of a finish.

I'll toss in a vote for this. Been a good-but-not-great Takeover so far

WMOTYC: Brock Lesnar vs. Roman Reigns, SummerSlam, 8/19

An overbooked shitfest that we all wasted multiple years of our life on.

Just a total loving disaster in the most perfectly WWE way.

second

my ISP crashed before the match and when it came back I went back to go watch this match

I was so wrong. So, so wrong. Comcast was trying to save me, but I rejected it's gift.
