Just watched Ilja/WALTER again, and god damn. Ilja is the greatest babyface and WALTER is WALTER, so there was very little chance it could not be awesome, but even considering that holy shit this match. Like if you just told me the finish with no context I would have said there was no fucking chance I would be able to buy WALTER of all people tapping out, but it just goes to show how being a great babyface is so important in wrestling.

Apparently per WWE sources Becky is considered to be a heel, which worked so well the last time it became their largest non-Bryan related fan rejection.

LOL @ the idea of Punk possibly being an EVP, dude publically big timed Cody at the time because he didn't think AEW would make it. He also had his hands full with other matters too, but it's been noted Punk was 100% one of the primary targets when AEW was being conceived and he turned them down flat.

Immediately after the show, the Young Bucks changed their Twitter bio to a Youtube link to a seance video (Adam Cole is dead in BTE canon) and Dr. Britt replied with a thinking emoji.

Kross isn't even the most monstrous guy in this match, lol.

Love that shot of Joe looking unimpressed with this bullshit during Kross' intro, that was great.

LOLOLOL Kross' entrance gets the WE WANT SCARLETT chant.

Also Joe is so great: "I'm here to fuck him up".

It occurs to me that Kross is just Bray Wyatt 2.0,: presentation wise 10/10, once the bell rings 1/10.

Ilja looking like he was just survived a grizzly bear attack.Which I guess he kinda did.

I know you guys hate him, and I'm not saying you're wrong, but Adam Cole strikes me as someone who would do a LOT better anywhere else than WWE so he doesn't have to be in an endless loop of trying to cosplay HBK matches.

They need to have Eric Embry come out at the end and tear the NXT logo down.

Speaking of "what do you do with either one of these guy?", what do you do THESE two? Neither guy has a shot on the main roster, and neither have a place in the new remedial learning center era of NXT.

The thing about Bray is for better or worse the Fiend is the only reason people care, and there's a question if being Legally Distinct Fiend in either AEW (or anywhere else) will be acceptable. I'm sure somewhere Bryan was like "FFS, really? I thought I was free of that guy".

Brock suplexed Cena to dust after the show for the crowd.

I get the impression Roman was the reason about that.

The kids 'bout to learn why having at least two major national wrestling companies is a great thing, Two days full of shit that wouldn't have happened if there still only one game in town.

Also with Becky and presumably Brock on Smackdown, Fox execs are probably popping bottles now.

Also Brock saw Cena's weird hair and was like "hold my beer"

LOL PUNK HAS VINCE SO SHOOK HE PAID BROCK LESNAR

Movie Guy Cena trying to be Wrestler Cena again just looks weird.

Holy shit, Bob killed the whole family.

I suppose on the plus side, Cole/O'Reilly is gonna look like Steamboat/Savage compared to tonight's show.

I popped for Xavier Ramon

Vegas is gonna be pissed at WWE for not ending at 11 EST like they promised.
