I love that Rey still feels like as good of a high flyer as there is in wrestling and he's fucking 44.

Joe needs to hold that belt for a year.

Just triple threat tag matches in general then?

Well Carmella is now a more successful rapper then Enzo. So there is that.

I would think it's a "your expectations for 12 minute triple threat tag matches, regardless of competitors." This wasn't getting past "fun"

I thought it was a pretty damn fun match, just with a dead crowd.

I mean I really dig the EU and Lorcan and Birch, and think the Street Profits (well, at least Ford) has huge potential, but if you had me name the 5 best tag matches in NXT they would still all be Revival matches.

I love Chad Gable but he comes across as Roodes stunt double in the entrance.

I hope this match is given a solid 20 minutes. Apparently the Revival and Gable and Roode have been having 30 minute matches on house shows and tearing the roof off the place.

Elias has been the best part of this show for me tonight.

I will be pretty bummed if they break up Sonya and Mandy.

This has been awkward, but I dug Mandy's strike game.

Haha, also acceptable.

If Shane punches Miz's dad I will laugh so hard.

... Is it just me or is Shane actually pretty decent at playing FoP?

Let's see if the "Shane McMahon as the weirdest old man Terry Funk tribute gimmick" run can continue to be not awful.

I have been working overnights and have actually been revisiting the old BWE podcasts in recent weeks, and I am on yours and Matts. And I was thinking how much you must be absolutely loving this.

Really there aren’t many wrestlers in the E who wouldn’t be pluses for AEW. If the Colons got released I could see them doing fun stuff all over the place. The WWE roster is so deep with good talent that you can pick out almost anyone and could see them getting a good run in places.

I don’t give match ratings, but I think this would be a 5 star to me personally. Perfect match for the characters involved. Potentially the best “Big Gimmicky Multiman Spectacle Match” ever, unless you count War Games in that catagory.

No offense, but AEW getting a legitimately great tag team like the USO’s would be huge for them. The Young Bucks are one if there only 2 big acts and they need people to go against the Bucks, and there isn’t an Indy tag team to get that can really match the Usos.

That last point is completely false. Best WWE tag team for a quarter century agaimst the top Indy team ever is absolutely a main event.

Shane is starting to hit that "Old Guy doing absurdly crazy shit" appeal ala Terry Funk. He is obviously not in that class, but just a thought.

You know I like th Usos as faves, but I love them as heels.

That is clearly the best options they have as a tag team feud. It will probably be given to Tamina and Nia, but that should be the Mania match.

Cool finish. Would have loved Sonya and Mandy getting a rub, but just going through the entire way works.
