I love that they have to poo poo on punk for no reason.

I mean even though that's very clearly why Booker did it, in theory what Booker said makes sense in the context of the build.

That match was really good until the finish. I'm generally digging the PPV so far.

How? :psyduck: Nothing of consequence has happened, it's been mostly commercials, and two of the three matches had dumbass finishes.

I liked the opener in both action and finish and liked the last match until the finish. Two out of three ain't bad.

Yeah, this show ain't blowing me away but it's been okay outside of the usual WWE nonsense. The Sami/Lashley match was loving awful though.

Pretty much. And I genuinely believe that there's good stuff still to come, potentially anyway.

I have to say, the diversity of looks and even dare I say it characters and styles in this match makes me happy given that it's a women's match.

Miles to go and all that but WWE really has come a long way on that front. Also HOLY poo poo THESE LADIES ARE GOING HAM.

why would you think that there's only one lana in this match not six of them

Because I didn't think whoever agented this would have/allow them to go this balls to the wall.

It was not a bad finish. It was a bad result. Those things are different.

They had her get pinned clean. LMFAO.

The womens mitb match was a pre emptive apology for that match

This is true but I knew that before Asuka/Carmella even started.

That match was good as heck. Admittedly Shin probably should have won but why are some people talking like that was bad? This has been a show with some major lows granted, but three loving awesome matches and two potentially good to really good matches left.

Why did the crowd pop so hard for that?

Also Ronda was good and that match was good imo.

Why do they swap announcers so frequently? Is this a common thing?

Even Roman/Jinder was okay for what it was

I literally forgot that existed but yeah it was fine as a "Roman beats transitional heel" fare.

I'm growing less positive on the Hardys 24 as I get further from it. Dude has distribition amounts of painkillers and steroids, keeps working and gets a whopping 10 days in jail and then trashes a car in a DUI with no stated penalty and he has a free new shoulder. That's basically the most priveledged drug story you'll ever hear. Other dude gets by solely on the strength of his wife despite their many serious issues that are glossed over.

Like it's still honest, but it's only answering what you want a happy ending to.

Okay, while I understand what you're saying, this bothers me because addiction is horrible whoever you are, and this reeks of you saying that because Jeff is rich and white and having a bumpier road he doesn't deserve the redemption. I'd agree with you if I had heard any stories of the people closer to him feeling like he's not genuine. Is Matt doing a better job? Yes. Does Jeff deserve to go to the Hague? No.

He got off with 10 days of jail and a fine. If he was black and not rich he’d probably be in there for the rest of his life. I hope he’s getting a handle on his demons but he’s been given a lot of chances and I hope he’s very grateful.

I agree, I guess my only point is I'm wary of judging people in recovery the more time I've spent advocating for them, you know? gently caress the "justice system" though (which is the real root of the disparity, let's be honest).
