If anyone wants to come yell abuse at me or something or just watch the computer fight, I decided to put up a stream of tonight's card in Fire Pro, which is probably better than the pre-show. Come say hi.

I really wish they thought about the set design more, rather than going with tons of lighting in a big empty room it should’ve been kept to just lighting the ring itself, and make it look a lot more personal rather than a rehearsal.

Taker match at least looked like they put some thought into how to approach this event. Nothing else did.

Just let it shine through
Yeah the entire thing really had a dress rehearsal vibe to it, except KO/Rollins because they actually talked through their story during the match. Everyone posing to no one for the sake of future b-roll just made it weirder. Dimming the lights would have absolutely helped. Even letting wrestlers present be in the stands as other people have suggested would have been cool, along with actually letting Mojo and Gronk having a presence as an audience.

I still really liked Bryan/Zayn and the ladder match, even if it was still off. Also Shayna shoulda won. I feel like they do not wanna move any titles around so that they don't have to mention this 'Mania much going forward. Goldberg was getting put out to pasture no matter what though.

Is the order for night 2 that's listed on Wikipedia the correct one? I ask because there's no way Otis vs Ziggler is the main event, right? :psyduck:

Yeah when Gronk kicked off the show with Mojo it felt like this was exactly what they were going to do... then it just didn’t happen outside of about 2 moments.

Tonight's scheduled card for those who don't want to look it up - match order is not known, I've ranked them in the order I think WWE probably applies importance to them:
  • Liv Morgan vs. Natalya on the pre-show
  • Aleister Black vs. Bobby Lashley
  • Otis vs. Dolph Ziggler
  • The Street Profits (C) vs. Austin Theory and Angel Garza for the WWE Raw Tag Team Championship
  • Bayley (C) vs. Lacey Evans vs. Naomi vs. Sasha Banks vs. Tamina in a Fatal 5-Way Elimination match for the WWE SmackDown Women's Championship
  • Rhea Ripley (C) vs. Charlotte Flair for the NXT Women's Championship
  • Edge vs. Randy Orton in a Last Man Standing match
  • John Cena vs. The Fiend Bray Wyatt in a Firefly Fun House match
  • Brock Lesnar (C) vs. Drew McIntyre for the WWE Championship

I'm going to turn it on to drown out the mournful baaaaing of my ewe, Flounce, who really wants her baby back. But her baby got sold today because I can only fit so many rams on the property. I told her if she wants a baby to keep, she has to make a ewe not a ram.

She said baaaaa :(

You'll be really happy to know that in a few days she'll have settled down and she'll be playing aunt to two really cool little ewe lambs that she loves a lot. And she gets extra apples tonight to help her feel better about life in general.

(I'm only on episode 2 of Tiger King and it's most Florida poo poo to happen outside of Florida)

I'm down to the last episode and seriously it's just like,"What the gently caress is next with these loving people?" because every time I think they've all hit a new low they invent new drilling machines that can tunnel through diamond.

Nonsense. I have not yet begun to defile myself.

I vaguely wonder if Undertaker hardway cut himself on that Goldberg window spot. That would be some next level Pro Wrestling to set up a spot making fun of a guy getting hurt on an improper stunt, doing it the way it was intended, and then getting hurt anyway

Last night I watched for the trainwreck value which it delivered in spades, and was pleasantly surprised by the bonus of actually getting something genuinely good at the end of it.

Ideally tonight against all expectations is ALL good, but I'm expecting more trainwreck and I'll just hope to be pleasantly surprised by another unexpected bonus of something genuinely good happening in there as well.

I wonder if Liv Morgan legit believed that they had an actual storyline/character change for her or knew that she was gonna get at best a couple appearances on Raw and a Wrestlemania pre-show match before they forget she exists again?
