Vince just wants to scream about dominic over a microphone while rey literally dies in the ring then once Rey's gone he fires dominic

yea this match seemed a bit sloppy in a lot of parts which I guess happens at times with ladder matches but it was throughout I found.

also I die a little everytime I hear not michael cole refer to the audience as the wwe universe.

Everything about that match felt weirdly off (crowd was fully into it though, which was good). Rey and Andrade weren't going through the motions, but everything felt way too scripted and they were just getting into position regardless of anything else that was going on matchflow wise. The moment that really stood out to me was when Zelina is up on the ladder blocking Rey, he just stops and waits patiently for Andrade to arrive, and Zelina then climbs down because the spot is done and nothing else comes of it.

Probably why there hasn't been a ladder match on RAW for 13 years. The next one will be in 2033.

WWE swiping the (When) Worlds Collide name and just doing NXT vs NXT with it makes me irrationally annoyed.

Humberto won a title shot a few weeks ago when Andrade attacked him rather than take part in a gauntlet match to determine who got a title shot. As a result of Andrade not taking part in the match to get a title shot, Andrade got a title shot and became Champion. Because there are no more instant rematch clauses and Humberto had won the shot for a title, Rey got an instant rematch for the title. Now Humberto has shown up to save Rey, which means the guy who won a title shot weeks ago might now be in consideration to get a title shot.

It's funny that apparently Vince sincerely thinks of MLK as a hero and looks up to him, but can't take away anything from the message

Its fine because MLK ended racism and all the nice white people like Vince totally helped him and didn't fight against him.

Black's entrance used to be absolutely incredible. Somehow on the main roster they've managed to keep all the components (with the addition of the CREAAAAAAAKKKKK) and somehow make it incredibly lame. It's really quite remarkable.

I think it's just filming it from the different angle instead of making it look like he was rising without any board has hurt.
