Matt D

First dive Miz has ever caught in his career!

Ah the joys of the Southern Tag.

Bunny selling his own headbutt is intermediate pro wrestling stuff.

Miz selling the punches is pretty solid, plus he's coming off as a legitimate bullying threat here for the first time since the Finlay/Hornswoggle feud in ECW.

Thanks. I have thoughts already but I'll I'm going to litigate them with Dan first.

The Martel/Zenk vs Funks match and Martel vs Lawler would be two I'd consider key too because they show different aspects of his game.

I'm not in a position to revisit footage here yet, but if Bryan has a very clear path to #1, it means more questions should be asked about his work than almost anyone. That was the case with Flair in 2016 and he still won the thing, but he won it having ran quite the gauntlet first. That's Bryan's future here. Celebrate him, yes, but poke at him from every direction. And if he comes out on top, then he'll certainly have deserved it.

As did I. I thought it was some sort of trippy Big E entrance for a minute.

Aw shit, it's the Rabbit Tribe.

They'll "fix" it on the reshowing so enjoy it now.

That still wasn't nearly as bad as the Taker match.

It'd be funny if this was the match that got to have color.

To be fair, Angle never actually mat wrestled. Whoever said this felt like a house show was close. It feels like a Saudi show.

Remember when he outwrestled AJ? Now he's out brass knucks title-ing Braun. Even now that the chair is gone.

So the upside here, my old friends, is that this show has only been going for 2 hours and not 4 like when we normally get to see Shane.

Granted, in 18 months, he'll be in backstage skits dressed like a giant chicken, but it'll be ok for a while!

Omos reacting to everything that he was doing was pretty great, actually. All the stuff between moves was leaps and bounds better than the usual stuff you get out of a giant rookie and better than Khali/Gonzales ever got.

I'm finding it fairly creative heel-in-peril stuff to keep Styles from tagging. I don't think it's the sort of match that you can do more than once or twice though. @Jmare007 I'm on the same wavelength with you here at least.

It's going to be Undertaker at Survivor Series 90 level given the build of the match so far.

I'm ready to see what Omos can do already, but I love that Woods was distracting Styles by playing his TNA theme a couple of weeks ago.

Cesaro with best Rollins going for GWE cred? He already has the best Miz match.

I tuned back to a second to see Rollins' face after a kick out on the replay. Yeesh.

I’m going to get the kids to bed instead of watching Rollins.

Nattie did a good job of letting that last moment settle in? That’s the only nice thing I have to say.

Ok, the Dunn cut when Lana whiffed was a mercy. I’ll give them that one.
