I live in NY, and this weekend probably sealed it that I will go out of my way to attend a disgusting number of shows at this time next year and enjoy my couch for Mania.

Is Nicholas one of those fans who was going to walk out if AJ/Nak didn't close the show? Because it doesn't look like he's game for the main event.

A few thoughts here: 1) I'm legit laughing right now because us nerds speculated on potential partners for weeks while they literally planned on trolling us the entire time. 2) That kid looks like he's going to piss himself. 3) What is the point of this? Is The Rock coming out? What in the world is going on?

At 11:30 at night this is insulting.

That angle was pretty brilliant given the timing on the show and what it sets up following Mania. Who wants to road trip it to Jeddah with me? We got this one.

How about that? A clean world title match at Mania to trigger an angle and fresh feud.

Love how they used Asuka's performance after losing to Charlotte to set this one up. Pretty slick.

YES! This I can get behind.

Just like I told you, there was no chance AJ was losing.

This. Its very solid and they're doing things that would normally pop a crowd, but when these guys working submissions wake them up the most it suggests its the environment rather than the match. Not to say they're having any kind of classic, but its been a very good match.

No Flo Rida or similar shenanigans on the schedule tonight, right? Just Raw tag titles and Brock/Roman?

There is no chance they're giving Nak that kind of entrance and having walk back empty handed. Wrong result, but its a lock.

Nia/Alexa was a ton better than I expected, and they even overcame not working a quick squash. Alexa is one of the best acts in the company and has such poise and charisma. She also took a sick beating and some major bumps tonight. Big kudos to both of them for putting together such a strong, compact match.

I'll hopefully remember to post more about it tomorrow, but Riddle vs. Ospreay from the WWN Supershow is the Riddle we all want.

This must be so awesome for Alexa & Nia.

Unreal. https://twitter.com/tokyodynamite/status/983164159859687425

What a night for AJ Styles. He's getting prime positioning on the biggest show in the world this year.

As bad as Cena/Taker and the start of this match were, major credit to them for finishing it the right way. Especially when I had zero expectation of it. Bryan looked amazing in there and its shocking to see them feature him *this* strongly, even if it makes all the sense in the world.

I know I shouldn't be surprised, but was it really too easy and simple to let Bryan work the apron the entire time rather than play dead?

You realize this is all your fault.

Kevin Owens is why when ESPN mics up players they don't leave it on all night but instead give you certain highlights.

Meanwhile, can they please induct JJ Robertson to the HOF every year? He almost distracted me from the stink of Cena/Taker.

I swear I just saw Hillbilly Jim pull out the rest of his speech.

What was the point of that?

Wait. What. The fuck just happened?
