That ladder match was INSANE... There were parts where I was just cringing because they looked legit painful. That slam on Killian Dain at the end looked really bad, he landed right at the edge of the ring from halfway up the ladder.... The sound he made when he landed... SPLAT!

Also Shayna Baszler using her hair to secure a RNC was legit! Such a fucking badass

Seth Rollins vs Finn Balor & Miz

Like I thought, Miz took two 5 star performers who just had 4 star TV match and it was just a good match with unnecessary distractions, including Miz working as a babyface for some weird reason. Here's hoping Miz goes to Smackdown or something, and Balor completes his (IMO) impending heel turn. (the smiling and the beard tells me he's turning, although that seems doubtful now with the LGBT gear)

Asuka vs Charlotte

Oops. Should have known based on Asuka's first match being a competitive one against Emma of all people. They are never going to use her properly, especially now that they have Ronda (Asuka can't even use the armbar now, one of her main offensive moves).

Great match though! Second best of the show easily

Randy Orton vs Jinder, etc

Skipped this match

Rousey & Angle vs HHH & Steph

Match of the show! This was excellent from top to bottom. HHH and Steph are such great heels, they made Ronda look like a million bucks. Angle didn't look tragic, and Ronda actually looked really good for HER FIRST MATCH EVER. I loved the armbar spot at the end, one of the best ever! And this is right after Shayna's armbar!

New Day vs Whoever

Skipped this match

Understaker vs Cena

What it needed to be. Glad they didn't try to have a 'classic'. That being said, this is the worst Cena has looked in quite a while. He was off on everything. Maybe UT is just slow I dunno. Seems like an unnecessary match if anything... What does UT do from here? He basically retired already and came back...

Owens & Zayn vs Bryan & McMahon

I hope to never see Shane in a match again. Dude looks like he's going to have a heart attack as soon as he gets a little physical. Bryan's return was great to see, but not really goosebumps level. Stretchering him at the beginning and then having Shane wrestle ruined his comeback.. Even when he finally came back people were like "k... guess we don't have to watch Shane wrestle anymore"

Just shit, this should have been a singles comeback, or stretcher him AFTER he runs wild for a bit for his comeback instead of having Shane McMahon actually wrestle while he lays there.

Bliss vs Jax

What you'd expect. Crowd was dead

Nakamura vs AJ

Good match, but didn't live up to the hype. I can't say much else since I don't watch SD, and don't even care about the heel turn. I did like how it was set up by Asuka after her match. Crowd still dead for this one.

The Bar vs Brawn

This was hilarious, I was laughing out loud several times. I guess The Bar are going to move to SD with Owens and Zayn coming back... Nicholas was the ref's kid btw

Reigns vs Lesnar

Everyone assumed they were just waiting for Roman to win, so the crowd wasn't into it at all. I thought it was a fine Brock match that would have been better with literally any other opponent. If that kind of match can't turn Roman face, nothing can, and they need to give up.

Crowd was HOT before the Shane McMahon match, and the show just kind of fell flat from there which kind of made the later matches less fun. That and the show is just too long

BTW what the fuck are Brock's teeth made out of?

15-16hours of wrestling watched this weekend....

ROH Supercard
Only watched the Cody/Kenny match.. nothing special.. furthers the story line... Brandi took a good bump.

NXT

The show of the weekend by far. Everything about this show was great from start to finish. The ladder match was a giant spot fest. Allister Black and Almas put on a great match. Ciampa and Johnny Wrestling was spectacular. These NXT matches are very well done. HHH has given us a great product.

this spot doe.. OUCH


WM34

Pretty tired at this point...

KAIRI's ELBOW

Really liked the main card opening match. Miz didn't take away anything from the match. He eats the pin, all is well in the world.

Charlotte's entrance was spectacular. Match was good. Ending was a surprise.

NEW DAY AND SHORT STACK PANCAKES

Cena and Taker. I loved it. Taker also looks to be in great shape. A good redemption from that shitshow last year.

I really couldn't give a shit about the US title match..so i skipped it

Ronda's match was entertaining as hell. Steph looked hot. Ronda lookin great as well. She definitely has some work to do, but its a great start for her. Kurt Angle should never step back into the ring ever again though. Every time he took a bump, i was legit cringing.

Daniel Bryan, HUGE pop, well deserved. KO and Sami are fantastic as always. Daniel didn't look like he was rusty either. Can't wait for whats next for him.

Bliss vs Jax

I just enjoy watching Alexa Bliss.. hahaahahhahaha.

Braun Strowman. I just enjoyed the entire thing. the kid looked legit scared standing on the ropes. hahaha

Nakamura vs AJ

A big big rep to live up to. WK10 was an absolute perfect match. This one however... crowd was dead for this...Though the finish to the match was excellent. the reversal of the knee into a Styles Clash. I hated the heel turn though.

AJ and Nakamura is now 1-1. Will we get a Round 3?

Lesnar/RR

wtf is this shit?
Those elbows Roman tho...lots of blood.

Wrestlemania is a marathon.. goddamn.. Combined PPVs.. probably more 5-6hour shows moving forward?

Caught up to Raw...lots of surprises.. but i loved this

I just base it mostly on who goes over on the go-home show... Though most people assumed Lesnar was losing since they assumed he was going back to UFC.

Turns out he's not leaving

WWE is going to be amazing once Vince is gone, based on what HHH is doing with NXT

Hell even Steph is putting people over, which she has never really done until now

K so they broke Asuka's streak only to have Charlotte drop the title the next day.. Why not do this at Wrestlemania if you're going to do it?

What do you guys think of the NXT debuts so far?

Authors of Pain aren't going to be popular at all.. just another Road Warriors copycat like those last two geeks who nobody cared about when they were called up (can't remember the name of the team.. they had geek names like Connor and David or something). It's a shame because I quite like their matches when they are with someone who can sell hard

No Way Jose = the next Adam Rose.

Lashley is back, but I'm not sure they'll do anything with him. They'll probably team him up with Apollo and nobody will care.

Ember Moon has a lot of potential, another woman who can work her ass off on Raw will be good

Peyton and Billie debuted on SD and led to Charlotte dropping the title. I don't know how far they'll take the gay gimmick but it will be interesting if they do gay characters who aren't caricatures or heels. UFC has a few gay women fighters who are popular, but no men have come out yet

I feel the only NXT call ups that will make a difference would be Billie, Peyton and Ember. Ember is a great worker and the Iconics look great so the crowd will automatically gravitate to liking them.

AoP dropping Paul Ellering is dumb as fuck
No Way Jose will end up like an in shape Brodus Clay
Lashley was a boring wrestler before and he'll still be boring now

1) Ellering didn't want to travel on a weekly basis, hence, why he is being dropped.
2) No Way Jose has a very low ceiling, I don't think that is surprising.
3) Lashley improved a lot in the last ten years. I don't think he'll be as bad as you think he will be.

The bit about Ellering makes sense cause I think NXT films weekly in Orlando

That was great

Ember Moon is probably the best NXT callup of the current bunch

That suicide dive!

Watching the Greatest Royal Rumble right now.. What a spectacle!

I love the way it seems like an old school WWF event, where thousands of people showed up to witness a spectacle. They are just cheering for the goodguys and booing the badguys, rather than doing dumb chants trying to get themselves over

Even the Cena vs HHH is very old school, with a TEST OF STRENGTH to start things off. Nobody is booing Cena or chanting that he Sucks, they are just enjoying the show.

What I don't like is the shitty propaganda, saying this event is to "promote diversity" and all that shit, while they can't even have any women perform at all.. Not even the fucking ring announcer.

If you go to a country, you have to go by their shitty rules of course, but you sound like a piece of shit when you say you're there to promote diversity. Just make your money (they probably made tens of millions for this) and promote it as a big event.

The greatest royal rumble

A glorified house show.

Ladder match was safe, great ending tho. Breaks the usual fight the other dude on the top of ladder. This is great for story telling. Seth and Balor is gonna be good. A buildup for a big Summer slam match?

Nakamura vs AJ. Rnd3 felt like it should have been the match at WrestleMania. It was by far the better match. Imo for TV, u need a premise and a story. The whole two friends having a dreammatch doesn't work in WWE. I wanted to see Nakamura win here. But a double countout is good. Keep the record at 1-1-1

Brock vs RR. Fun match. That's all I have to say. this was better than wrestlemania.

Taker looks fantastic. Much better than the last 3 years. That gut is gone.

Royal Rumble has its spots. The right guy won
