Yeah, Baron, we’re the only ones who can hit on Becky.

Hey, remember that Corbin/Dempsey match which was No DQ where the only weapon that was brought in was a chair but that got deflected leading to the finish? No real reason, this just felt like the only true place to bring that match up. I've not seen it but that description reminds me of the Carlito / Sandman kendo stick on a pole match where Sandman got the kendo stick then Carlito just ducked it and hit the Backstabber for the win.

Remove the pole and have them two nonsensically brawling before Bull got the chair and yeah, that’s pretty much how it. Ironically I was really excited about it because it felt like two big dudes beating each other with weapons and stuff...and it was entirely the opposite of that.

The only thing I took away from this was "My most awesome moment was when I went off script and said something off the top of my head that was the coolest thing I'd done in ages, but then I remembered I'm not allowed to do that and fell back in line with how things are...supposed to be..."
Just one moment out of the micro-managing of Vince and it was awesome. Imagine an entire company given more freedom like that.

Reminds me of how much abuse Nia got thrown at her after that Raw accident last year.

That's some old-school heel heat. Corbin may have been getting overbooked, but he's been one of my guys ever since his match against Joe in NXT. The man knows what he's supposed to do as a heel. I still think Corbin/Joe is the best match Joe's had in this entire WWE/NXT run of his. Corbin busted out a sweet ass Heel Hook.

Corbin has won me over lately. I used to be sick of the guy... now I see he’s one of the best heels in the company. He looks like a villain in a 90s action movie.

It was Kelly Kelly, Trish, or both, I forget, who got teeth knocked out that they had to have put back in on a house show. The world kept turning. Plus, it honestly took Becky and made her go from an over wrestler to an icon. That bloodied face is probably going to be her Austin vs Hart.

How?!I couldn't even blame either guy because I saw them do better. Which was why I was excited for it. And the Bull Fit gimmick was literally after they signed Kevin Owens because they no longer needed Dempsey to be their Steen-Lite.

I don't know them personally, mind you, but it made it easy to root for the guy. I always liked pairing him with Fandango in my mind as the brute of the team, and they'd have gone by Ballroom Blitz. Granted, Breezango is fun, but damn it, I like my head canon.
