El Dragon

Rollins is a heel who isn't great at controlling a match and Finn is a face who isn't a good seller. This was never going to be a great matchup in the middle. Crowds not helping.

The crowd had been pretty dead all night. Nobody gave a shit about The New Day match either.

So Eva Marie's entrance is still awesome, even when she isn't there.

The weird thing is I've thought the match was good save for Ambrose Bubba Dudleying on the barricade.

I'm not sure which caught me most off guard, Ambrose breaking out the old Paul London Waffle Face, or immediately following it up with what appeared to be a jerking off motion.

A post about how nobody gives a shit about guys directly after a post giving WWE credit for making them give a shit about the match. Pretty poetic.

"Smackdown, not about eh guys running it, but about the performers" Bryan and Shane in the ring before the title match. Course.

I would really love for Ambrose/Ziggler to live up to the build it's had, which was actually good stuff, but man I just have 0 expectations for this match.

Gonna get lost in the shuffle, but man, I actually really dug Kofi and Xavier as a team.

Sorry man, I thought they were into overkill and losing me for a solid 10 minutes before the finish.

They finally put some up and comer over John Cena clean and the young up and comer just turned 39.

Fucking really, kicking out of a top rope AA?

Yeah, this was building to something cool, then it stopped.

I think this has officially hit "overkill" mode now.

Now the heel the crowd WANTS to win is gonna lose.

Legitimately curious how hurt Sasha is. That corner bump was nasty.

To be fair to Sasha, that looked like a botch from Charlotte, not Sasha. Just dropped her on the top rope,

Well, in a perfect world, Joe retains and Nak has to fight back into his title program. That's why I really wanted Joe to win. The loss kinda makes his title victory a "transitional champ" run, while not giving any real matchups for the future.

But is Nakamura/Roode really a match that anyone, right now, buys as a Takeover Main Event? Who buys Roode beating Nakamura?

Yeah, and outside of Joe, they have no real opponents lined up for Nakamura lined up.

Just let these two not do any opening match "feeling out" shit and just start beating the shit out of each other. It's what this match needs to be.

Yeah, that was amazing.

Me and Johnny might be the only people wanting Joe to retain the belt today, and I'm okay with that.

I thought the crowd was heavily into it, it's just that iwas a mixed crowd cause a lot of people love Asuka too.

Welp, that fucking ruled too. Asuka is a force of nature.
