Watching on the West coast now, and just caught that Reba is “injured” so Britt is lobbying to choose a replacement partner if she can’t compete, so another possible debut there too. Does Deonna work heel in Impact? I do not watch Impact.

Seams posted:If the person is in the ladder match I'm not sure I want it to be Punk unless he's been secretly getting ready for it. Punk was never the most naturally athletic wrestler and now he's over 40 and hasn't wrestled in years. Going to foolishly hold out hope that it’s JD Drake in the ladder match and he’s the also the 4th Horseman.

ICR posted:JD Drake would be PERFECT for the new 4 horsemen. Both of his Dark matches felt like showcases the way Bear Country’s first two were (against Dark Order and Jurassic Express) that I have to imagine he’s at least getting a serious look. I didn’t see him in the wrestler section this week, but they don’t always put everyone they’ve brought in out there.

I know Cody pretends like he doesn’t know who’s signed to what, but Velvet basically confirmed she’s already full time on Unrestricted last week. I get why people would guess Thea for Britt’s replacement partner, but I don’t know what she adds to Britt’s act long term, which isn’t a consideration if you bring in someone from Impact.

Christian is the person I’m having the hardest time coming up with who he works with immediately even though he’s immediately valuable backstage. At least with Angle, I’d buy him putting together a babyface Team Taz and then they feud over who gets Leyla Hirsch in their stable.

Thinking more about it, if they had just run mortars across the full length of the camera side of the ring, it probably would’ve looked good enough because the whole ring would’ve been obscured from the primary vantage point of both the live and home audience. As it was, you never lost sight of Eddie and Mox. Also, even if the explosion had been well executed, having Eddie sell it to that degree was probably misguided.

Stealth Tiger posted:Does anyone else feel like the PPVs are too long, or is it just me being an old man? It's like 4 hours from the pre-show match to the end of the main event. It really kicked in for me around the brass ring match and I was hoping those guys would just get their poo poo in and keep the show moving. I am glad I live on the West Coast so the PPV ends at a reasonable hour for me, and old man who has to get up for work at 5:30.
