I'm abstaining from voting just because I know people are gonna overshit on this show way more than it deserves. If Sasha had been able to compete, it would be very hard to complain about most of this show. The top matches delivered and some of the undercard did too.

So here's what happened from a live perspective:
For both World Title matches, the GM and Commissioners came out to talk to the audience, but neither of these were shown on the pay-per-view. Stephanie and Foley talked to the crowd about the Universal Title before taking the cover off to reveal it. Under the cover, it looked like it was just the WWE Title. So the fans were annoyed after the big hype to see a red WWE title belt that didn't look that great. On TV, they just show a close up of the title.
However, I myself was getting VERY annoyed being in the crowd. After the first 2 minutes, it was like "Get the f*** over it already and watch the f***ing match" as the crowd was going out of their way to shit on it. It was way too much and just showed how immature and petty the live audience can be sometimes. Boo hoo, you don't like the color of a leather strap, get over it.

He spoke with Chris Van Vliet and he has more dumb things to say. This time about Twitch! I don't see what's so dumb about this. Breeze streamed under a different name and never used his WWE name when streaming. Then there was a big influx of streaming during the pandemic and everyone was using their WWE names, which they aren't supposed to do, some of which were basically streaming nothing but asking people to subscribe and give money (you know the ones I'm referring to). Vince wasn't gonna allow people to basically panhandle using their intellectual property, and unfortunately the bigger ripple effect was no streaming period. I also think though that this went beyond Twitch and onto Instagram ads as well with some people getting sponsorships on their WWE accounts for brands that WWE would never associate with.

I guess if they got 10 extras that's 5,000 dollars a TV taping, so 10,000 x 50 = 500,000 dollars a year which is still probably cheaper than flying NXT talents to do job work... and it has the benefit of you know... not jobbing potential future talent. May be an opportunity cost of "see how the NXT talent do"

Extras were getting $500 a piece plus catering whether they were used or not as of a few years ago when I had a friend who was an extra on both Raw and Smackdown but wasn't used. I guess if they got 10 extras that's 5,000 dollars a TV taping, so 10,000 x 50 = 500,000 dollars a year

Kayla was a complete and utter personality-less robot until Boogs brought her into the ring to play air guitar

Trish is the only easy choice. I'd also put Charlotte ahead of Becky if I were to put only one of them on it, but maybe they're both on it.

Well on SmackDown they just had Edge kill him so either:
A. They ignore it and just act like Edge really hurt him. B. They work into the story that Uso was so devastated that he drank and drive. C. They acknowledge it entirely and don't connect it to Edge/Roman at all, and instead use it as an excuse for Roman to shit on Jimmy for embarrassing the family.

Bro this is like the joke from Missy Hyatt at the Cornette roast where she chastises wrestling fans for ignoring all of the charity work Cornette and Dutch Mantell used to do, working for the non-profit organization TNA

I know he probably doesn't want it, but WWE get Wuertz counseling. Treat this like a drug addict you had to release. I don't want any kind of tragedy to happen. He'd probably just flip out if they did that. Umaga was released for refusing to go to rehab, and then he died 6 months later. Only so much you can do to convince people to change their ways.

Also she is likely coming back because the income from her Twitch stream and OnlyFans ended up plummeting after she was released. I never knew she had an onlyfans. As far as I'm aware, it's basically just paid Instagram pics and nothing lewd.

lord, i HATE vince russo's silliness. shit is so embarrassing and took away from booker's night Booker only had his night because of Russo. Hogan refused to not win the title that night and if it wasn't for Russo going out of his way to do the "Screw you Hogan" story/shoot, then Booker wouldn't have gotten the title.

I did. I found it way more amusing him getting annoyed at the crowd going along with his "Wait, no I'm being an asshole, f*** you" schtick.

Lita's was by far the worst speech. Hillbilly Jim and Larry Zybyzsko were just a lot of rambling, but Lita spent 25 minutes telling the stupidest f***ing story of all time.

Bryan and Sheamus has no business being grouped in with the dogshit that is also down that far. You can disagree with it, but at least it made sense and wasn't a 20 minute snoozefest with old people or a dumb womens match before the women got taken seriously.

I'm hoping Tori (the other one) puts in Kane. After she spent so many nights calling up X-Pac to tell him that Kane is an awful lover and has a small penis? No thank you!
