I'm a big fan of Ibushi, but he really didn't look great, something just felt really off with him tonight.

It was a good 4-month War. No need to drag it out.

Schiavone is at ringside shaking hands with the fans. Rampage hasn't started yet. Did he punch a fan wearing a Better Than You Bay Bay shirt? |

It was a good 4-month War. No need to drag it out. Based on a similar comment you made before the show I kind of get the feeling there's not a thing they could do to convince you it's over, in what way are they dragging it out? There's literally a photograph of them showing respect after the match because the feuds over. Incredible show, will be watching the main event again as soon as possible tomorrow without commercials. |

Jack Perry was extremely hated. Crowd loved MJF, he was getting chants before the show when we were still waiting to get in the arena lol the dance off was incredibly over. I made the lady in front of me laugh when I called Wheeler Yuta the worst member of the Blackpool Combat Club. When the crowd started chanting for tables, my section was like do we need them? When the fire chants started, I was yelling no we don't. And the lady in front of me looked at her son and said no fire haha. The match was insane, although it got tedious standing up for every entrance. The post show segment definitely felt like a conclusion to the feud. And no spoilers here, but the Royal Rampage was a lot of fun.
Overall, the best show I've been to live. Got to knock a lot of things off my wrestling bucket list, including a war games match, a battle royal, singing Judas and Wayward Son, and seeing MJF wrestle. That was great.

I don't think there are any deserts in Massachusetts. Nope, but the whole state feels like one this time of year  |

Sorry, I misspoke. I should've said I am glad they won't drag it out  |

Read through the thread a bit and just want to comment on something:
For what it's worth, the Britt match seemed to serve no purpose, BUT she was hella over with the live crowd. When they showed the graphic saying she was going to be in action, it got a huge pop. And on a show like this, you didn't really need a big competitive women's match, just throwing someone over out there to get a win was sufficient. I know, it sucks that they only get one match per show, but that's how it's been since 2019 and I don't see it changing anytime soon. And no offense, but the way some of you get about how the women are booked is worryingly obsessive, imo. Like, yeah, I wouldn't mind seeing them get more than one match, but there are some of you that are never happy about how they're used. The two most tired tropes in the show threads are "Britt gets too much TV time!" and "the women get the death slot again!". Neither is actually true, that HAS changed. This was Britt's first TV appearance in a while (and that I don't remember exactly when she last appeared tells you how significant her appearance was) and the women have been shifted around to the second match spot much more frequently as of late. A lot of times, they get featured in multiple segments, too. But when one show has less focus, people get up in arms over it. I just don't get it.

I love how Hangman Page has found a balance between emotional and quiet cowboy and literal Hangman. He has shown himself to be an absolute killer when the need calls for it. Reminds me of Dusty Rhodes. I love Mox, Omega, Eddie, etc., but Hangman is the heart and conscious of the company. Like Sting in mid-90s WCW, before becoming crow. I still think Omega is the ace, his matches are can’t miss, but Page is the beating heart.

Really enjoyable episode
Jack Perry losing the Jungle Boy nickname gave JR a bigger boner than the stuff he likes on Twitter. Still can’t say I find myself interested in Jack though ending Hooks streak was something different for that character so interested where that goes at least
I was sure that Britts match was going to lead to something post match because otherwise why bother lol
MJF & Cole I’ve discussed in their thread. Dax managing to annoy me in a new record time. “Hey Tony next time play our music”…….Why? Dunno whether to point out that their music interrupted Cole\MJF or that he didn’t win a match so why would they play his to end the segment. Suppose it gives him an excuse to go back to Punk to complain about how those nasty Dynamite people treated him. Maybe Punk can give him some bitty to calm him down after
Blood and Guts was great. Nothing I can say that hasn’t been said already I would imagine
