Is it worth watching the Kickoff show? I don't usually bother these days outside of Mania and Stand and Deliver. Nope if you are thinking it provides any substantial build to any of the matches....the two of them they promoted. If you want it as pure background noise...sure.

I'm just spitballing here; but since my Kabuki Warrior have to lose their titles, to protect them, I propose a story-line where Asuka accidentally gets herded onto a bus full of Mimes and Kairi is left to defend by herself. When Asuka finally gets to the arena, she is trapped in an invisible box, then has to walk upwind and doesn't make it in time.

So the show is actually today, but won't be shown in the US until tomorrow? Lame.

Asuka is trapped on a boat in the middle of the sea by herself...with no compass and only a letter that reads BUNNY! (no not that one) and has to get to the famed island of the bunnies to save her titles or else KAIRI will lose the titles to the bunnies and be assimilated into being the rabbit queen.

Things Iβll need translated before the show starts:
β’ What are the fans changing after every two count? β’ What were they singing after AJ Styles said he was phenomenal?

They were chanting 'Simplement deux' (only two), which is apparently a line WWE's French commentators use heavily. As for AJ, they were chanting "Il est vraiment phΓ©nomΓ©nal", or "He truly is phenomenal".

Cards looking a little light imo. Surprised we didnβt get an IC or Raw womenβs match added via Monday. I would have loved to see a Raw women's title match, but given that Becky is a mommy and Liv is going to become Dirty Dom's new Mami, it's understandable WWE didn't want to fly them out to France. The current card looks really good though, and looking forward to Styles vs Cody and Priest vs Jey Uso.

This doesnβt surprise me at all. The crowd was very loud from the audio we got through the TV, and during the last segment it became difficult to hear Cody and AJ.
