April 20Apr 20 comment_6029242 Even cockroach is borderline considering that cockroaches are vermin and you know who used the termin "vermin" for whom.
April 20Apr 20 comment_6029243 No. That was not a dogwhistle slur. It's the samething as calling someone a scumbag, which I think they also did.
April 20Apr 20 comment_6029248 Considering who they are aligned with, if they wanted to use it as dogwhistle they would use it talking about Sami Zayn, really. Remember Sami Zayn, when he was he most over guy in the company last year ?
April 20Apr 20 comment_6029263 - I liked the main event, especially the second half of it. Sure, its finisher-spamming and "main event style," but I wasn't expecting anything else and it delivered the drama and the cool combos/counters that it needed to. I'm far from a Rollins fan, but I thought he was the MVP of the match. The spear-into-a-pedigree counter looked great. He was consistently "the spoiler" whenever Punk or Roman looked to have it won. He was booked, in the build, as the third wheel, but he's also "The Architect," so him and Heyman being in kahoots makes "wrestling sense" (heels do heel things). - I liked Charlotte/Stratton more than most. It was physical. It was messy at times. But I didn't see "sandbagging." I didn't see anyone taking liberties. If anything, what I think caused the sloppiness was that, as is her wont, Charlotte wanted to do everything in the match, including some sequences/counters that maybe a 4-year professional in her first major WrestleMania match isn't yet smooth enough to pull off. The match, to me, looked like Charlotte taking Stratton into the deepest part of the swimming pool and seeing if she could swim and then, to prove a point, holding her head underwater for a few seconds. Ultimately, Charlotte did the clean job and took every spinebuster and every back elbow with gusto, though. She did business. Here's hoping Flair does take some time off - her recent interviews have made it impossible to ignore the emotional baggage she's carrying from her most recent divorce, issues with her dad, and heartbreak from an unfortunate failed IVF, and she deserves time to try to get some of that sorted - but I don't say that because I'm not a fan. She clearly led the match last night and while it veered into "extra"/"try hard"/"y'all doing too much" territory, I respect the ambition. She wanted to steal the show. She wanted to see if Tiffany could steal it with her. She forgot that in a wrestling match, chemistry can matter more than how many moves you can cram into it.
April 20Apr 20 comment_6029266 Starting out with Stephanie McMahon is not the most auspicious beginning, to say the least.
April 20Apr 20 comment_6029267 After Friday night, I have a feeling Cody is gonna get booed out of the building.

April 20Apr 20 comment_6029270 Honestly, I don’t get their beef with Bianca either. I know the announcers keep playing up the fact that Belair cost Rhea the title, but she really didn’t.
April 20Apr 20 comment_6029271 Damn, that was a good match. That’s how you open Wrestlemania and get the crowd riled up.
April 20Apr 20 comment_6029272 Good Lord, what an opener. Iyo somehow ended up the star of what was a damn good hoss match between Rhea and Bianca.
April 20Apr 20 comment_6029273 That match got really good by the end. I'll be surprised if anything beats it out for MOTN.
April 20Apr 20 comment_6029274 Prediction: Cena beats Cody after Rock throws salt in Cody's eyes. Cena challenges Punk. Punk accepts with Cody's blessing, wins title.

Same absolutely legal russian stream. Yeah this was a terrific match. So much better than anything I saw yesterday to the point it looked like they worked in another company... Nothing has even a shot after this. Might as well end this on a blaze of glory. Done. (I would love to wake up and read the news of Rusev showing up against Orton and taking a RKO in two minutes)
April 20Apr 20 comment_6029277 Oh shit, they got fucking Slayer. This has already blown away night 1.
April 20Apr 20 comment_6029278 Nice to see Drew adhered to the metal code and didn't attack until the song was done.
April 20Apr 20 comment_6029280 McIntyre is great as a heel, he’s been doing such awesome work the past couple of years.
April 21Apr 21 comment_6029281 Significantly better than night 1 already. Ad count: 12 as of prior to the end of the street fight.
April 21Apr 21 comment_6029283 I’m generally not a huge fan of WWE plunder matches, but that was about as good as you can expect to get. Fact is, Priest is probably better off in matches like that. And as I said, McInyre can’t do much wrong in my eyes. I liked the ending spot.
April 21Apr 21 comment_6029284 What can be done to freshen up Priest? Just as his World Title reign last year was finally beginning to gain a sliver of momentum, he lost to GUNTHER, and he hasn't really been interesting since then.
April 21Apr 21 comment_6029285 Penta having the time of his life in WWE is my favorite thing in 2025 so far.
April 21Apr 21 comment_6029287 Can't speak on the match as a whole but those last 6 minutes of the opener was probably the best finishing stretch I've ever seen on a triple threat. Those three are gonna be remembered for a long time with that opener.
