Speaking of which, did anything happen last night? I haven't been watching in a while and during this pandemic my interest in wrestling is as little as it was when I stopped watching in the mid-00s.

How's the tourney so far? Also honestly I'm cool with Braun in this type of feud. He will have to deal with the tricks of 2 weasel heels and that's cool. I wouldn't even mind if they won and shared the title. Also, greatest wrestling match? Is that a tagline for it from the company?

Tourney’s been great. Styles & Nakamura was good and Bryan vs. Gulak rocked.

The match card graphics for Backlash have had the “Greatest Wrestling Match” text next to the event logo, so I guess it’s the tagline.

Shocked they cracked a 2 with a tourney going on and Charlotte existing, but Smackdown's a way easier watch right now.

Jeff and Sheamus was hard hitting.

AJ vs. Shinsuke was Shins best match in a while.

Otis/Mandy vs. Dolph/Sonya was an enjoyable mixed tag

Braun vs. Miz was fine for what it was.

Charlotte vs. Bayley was almost ppv worthy best part Flair lost.

No Corbin.

It was an above average show.

Money money, ye' ye'!

One thing that I love about this tournament is that I know in advance the speciale matches at the show.

Not a bad rating at all, with more places opening up and it being a holiday weekend.

Final SD numbers: 0.5 demo, 2.04 million viewers. SD adjusted down from 0.6 in the demo.

is this the first time all 4 semi finalists in a tourney are faces? AJ is about the closest thing to a heel but he fought nak to make him the lesser of two heels at worst.
