They've been playing up the Sami is Rocky thing since before Mania. Think Bron takes it at SummerSlam or maybe Survivor Series.
Hopefully C.M. Punk will be healthy enough to actually wrestle at some point ... maybe SummerSlam or Survivor Series.
Wow really thought they were teeing it up for priest/balor and Seth/gunther now I’m not sure where they go with Seth since he pretty much always is in the title picture.
It's Tiffy Time. That was a pretty easy call on who was going to win. Great match.
Yup I think right person won and everyone got a chance to shine - that was far and away Naomi’s best match since she came back.
Stark top of ladder on to bridged latter. wow. Green through 2 tables WOW! Kudos to them all for going all out.
Shocking they allowed Solo to pin Cody. I guess we know the next PLE PPV (which is stupid).
Also the Samoan Spike is the WORST finishing move in the history of wrestling.

C+ PLE imo. Main event felt like it should've been on SD. They could've built up this new Bloodline sooner into a more dangerous and vicious version, but Roman ain't coming back this soon, in Canada, at a Money in the Bank. Nevermind the fact that his father just died. I'm guessing we get a typical interference match at SummerSlam, Spike hits Cody a couple times, Cole screams "not like this!!!", and then we either hear Roman's theme or Heyman's voice say something like "My name is Paul Heyman and your real Tribal Chief has returned."
Fans wanting Roman back immediately probably skipped Game of Thrones where the heels owned like 82% of some seasons.
Makes perfect sense to have Cena vs Orton for his last match at 41 then before 42 induct the man into the HOF. I still remember that first match with Angle. Cena told him afterward he almost had him, and in the back Taker gave him respect. Vince knew from moment one that was going to be his new Hogan.

Hard to argue with dx in charge wwe doesn’t need to overpay for free agents -
Stratton/laya/brekker/dragonov just called up in the last few months looks like future stars and then you also got guys like Melo and trick Williams great to see young talent finally paving the way for the next generation of wwe - kinda feels like 20 years ago when guys like cena and Orton emerged.

I don’t get the Punk appeal. Was hoping he was gone and that Sami would lose.
One of these years I want to see a guy like Hayes or Andrade just go completely off script and climb up the ladder real quick and get the briefcase when they shouldn't. Sure they would get fired immediately but they would be a legend and Tony Kahn would hire them in a second.
Her tits start at her throat. Hardest lookin fake knockers I’ve ever seen.

Not to constantly compare the two, but WWE is clearly preparing for the future (next 10-15 years). Vince did it with Cena and Reigns. Bully said several months back that years ago Vince told him Reigns would be feeding our (WWE) families for the next 15 years and that's happened. WWE rarely fails to capitalize and prepare for the next generation.
Tony is booking for the now which is a different approach and for fans who want everything now, that's what they're getting. In WWE, Ospreay probably wouldn't be champion for three years. In AEW, he might become champion by year's end after arriving in March. Mone is currently holding two titles and wrestled her first AEW match in May. Just different approaches. One makes you excited for WWE's future, the other you're just hoping can be maintained by enough indy stars/WWE castoffs.
Andrade got no reaction during his entrance. Through my speakers I think I heard spiders in the arena fart as he came to the ring. Pretty sure creative knows because he was between Jey Uso and LA Knight, which was sorta funny. Andrade kinda shined in that match though but that slow walk with the oddball mask just doesn't do anything for anyone. It's practically a Create-A-Wrestler entrance. Entrances are what, maybe 25% of your entire gimmick in WWE? Maybe more than that.
I think they missed a cue for Drew’s music to hit and it messed everything up. It was definitely a big ass botch on someone’s part.
Anyone else amazed at how they remember all the predetermined moves? It’s not like an actor that gets limitless takes, they get one chance
