[UN PLOMBIER NIGHTMARE #blm]

this episode might have been a mistake

[Lizuka #BLM]

I missed the first half hour but the rest was a show that existed. I'll give it a 5 because it successfully ate up 90 minutes of my life without any major complaints except that crossdresser line.

That said holy shit they need to just start shoving Rock in pretapes because dude just cannot stick to a time schedule.

[Doo Doo is Worse Than WCW 2000]

5/10

That blew. Nothing but filler.

[chronocross]

5/10, liked the opening segment with Randy Orton and Logan Paul.

The ending was okay but they need to get Rocky a script or something because he drones on and on, wtf.

[The Rick Jericho]

I'm not liking the little bits of what can be interpreted as a little homophobic from Gerwitz showing on TV here.

5. Most of the score is for Tiffy.

[Deleted]

So much of this Mania is suffering because all the effort is into one damn story.

Everything else is literally being made to feel like total filler.

[J is Justice]

5/10.

Weak show. Tiffy and Damage CTRL were the only highlights for me.

It feels like.......

[FALLOUT Goldashausen #BLM]

After a 10 Revolution, an 8 Raw and a 9 NXT, this is a disappointing 6.

I wasn't feeling much of anything on this show, save for maybe the Orton/Owens/Waller/Theory opener.

Looks like they're setting up for both LDF/LWO and Profits/Final Testament. Whether or not they'll both get Mania time is beyond me at this point. It'll be a shame if the likes of Mysterio and Lashley aren't booked because of it.

And, yeah, that final promo went downhill fast. An entire segment of entrances. And there is no place for homophobia/cisheteronormativity for heat. Gewirtz's fingerprints were all over that, get out of here with that crap.

I liked Tiffy.
I liked Bianca telling it like it is about how Bayley is still a horrible person.

Which made me torn on what I think of the Damage CTRL pre-taped segment. On one hand I'm glad they let them have one. On the other hand I don't like how it re-inforced the, "We're sneaky untrustworthy foreigners" angle that this story insists on going with.
That also rolls into the Bayley taped segment. They are either doing a great job writing Bayley as a legendary gaslighting heel, or doing a poor job of making her into a remorseful face. It's probably that second thing

[polarbearpete]

I liked pretty much everything on the show, and the Mania excitement level is pretty high so I went with a 9

[4real]

Last weeks show was really good so decided to check out this weeks. I won’t be watching next week. Dull stuff.

[Chris the Bambikiller]

5/10. Screw Logan Paul and his bottled piss.

[welshpenguin]

10! Awesome Smackdown! It’s great seeing Roman, Rock, Seth & Cody in the same ring together! Great showing from Tiffy & fun opening segment with Randy, Logan Paul & KSI taking an RKO better than he should lol. Interesting segment from Naomi & Bianca & Naomi’s look was the best she’s had since her return. Hope she keeps it!
