Someone needs to ask Cody if he's a fan of burning man.

no but he loves the Human Torch (the original one who killed Hitler in WW2, not Johnny Storm)

im not sure what people thought was bad. Danielson vs. Angels was good, so was Ruby vs. Stat (STAT SHOULDA WON), Lee looked cool against Punk, and Cody vs. Andrade loving owned.

what i've learned is that there's a subset of people on this website who just start tearing their fuckin hair out the second anyone opens their mouths on dynamite

I do want Statlander to get a push sooner rather than later but I do get why Ruby Soho won, she's still got a lot of momentum behind her from being a hot new signing and she's over AF. Honestly I'm still not sure where the tournament is going, I don't know if Cargill defeats Rosa or Nyla beats Soho, it's been nicely unpredictable.

the funniest and therefor most intriguing outcome to me is that britt loses her belt to riho and thunder rosa wins the tbs title so all the people who are convinced that the only person britt could ever possibly drop the belt to is rosa would be in the mud

Long-Time Lurker posted:

Some folks might be harsh on this episode but the only bad take is from the poster who thought Hangman's perfectly normal guest commentary spot was somehow indicative of how weak he will be on the mic throughout his reign and that it meant his promos were scripted before this.

That guy sucks rear end and is a big time weirdo

And to the guy who says cody should stop making fun of Triple H: no. Cody hasnt made fun of Triple H enough. Cody should have clutched his chest like Red Fox in Sanford & Son after picking up the sledgehammer

I want to be hype for the flaming table, but like...Andrade didn't even come close to touching that table. If anything, he Sliced Bread #2'd Cody through a flaming table and thus should have picked up the win. I get what they were going for because I know wrestling, but if I just saw the sequence without commentary I'd assume Andrade won the match.

andrade literally went face first into the flaming table

I wasn't watching when Cody got the neck tat, what's the Fight Island read on his motivation? Did he just think it was cool? Was there some part of him so committed to his wild tweener meta melodrama bit that he was willing to get a big tattoo as one of his polarising character beats? It's a hole in my knowledge and the thought is pestering me.

the neck tattoo reveal was the first polarizing character beat, and it happened while he was walking to the ring as the lead singer from Downstait howled out his theme song like a dying cat behind him

Jade can wrestle in much the same way that any of us could wrestle, by picking someone we have a significant height and weight advantage over and then throwing them around a little bit and doing your favourite poses.

Jade Cargill is every older sibling that ever existed, essentially.

yeah i bet you could do a standing fall away slam no problem buddy lol

this was a good match, but i'd still rather Ruby win the TBS belt and Rosa go on to take down britt

It would be much funnier for rosa to win the tbs title so the "britt can/will only drop the title to rosa" people wont know what to do with themselves

I don't understand this. She always hits it so that the camera catches her smashing her opponent's face into the mat, which is what should happen. Her stylish cover makes her face away from the camera but that's less important than seeing the finisher hit.

she does the pin like that so she can look back over her shoulder at the camera

So the culmination to the interminable Matt Hardy - Orange Cassidy feud was Hardy winning controversially and Orange just bailing because he didn't give a poo poo anymore? Were they even building up to a hair vs hair match or was that just some weird misdirection?

If someone told me I had two more months of HFO midcardery in my future I'd be interrupting Adam Cole out of nowhere as well...

the hair vs hair match was an excuse for jack evans to get a haircut
