I think--of all freaking people--Johnny B Badd did it in WCW back and forth with Lex Luger during the 90s when things were relatively widely televised for that company. It was with the TV Title, not even happening on TV. Of course early 90s and pre-90s, it wasn't as uncommon. And my example isn't the best. But I think it was a thing. Just randomly comes to mind and I just figured I'd throw it out there. Didn't Benoit and Booker T do that in WCW after someone (Hennig?) no-showed and fans were demanding refunds? Yeah. But apparently WCW never mentioned it on TV because by the time TV rolled around again everything was back to normal.

AJ Styles is slumming it as US champion while Jinder Mahal is WWE champion. That's not right. I'd like AJ to get the Grand Slam before he calls it a day, so I really don't mind.

Has there ever been an instance where a pair trades title wins on the house show loop? Like KO just wins it back tomorrow in _________? London and Kendrick won the World Tag Titles from Cade & Murdoch at a house show and then Cade & Murdoch won the belts back at another house show 2-3 days later.

Man this MGS show sounded like a HELL of a show. I wish they recorded it. * Shinsuke Nakamura defeated Dolph Ziggler in a lengthy match. This was the first SmackDown special attraction match of the night, very hot crowd to start and Nakamura was super over * R-Truth defeated Goldust with the heel kick. Good match and the crowd stayed hot for it, current Goldust gimmick is great * Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose defeated Samoa Joe and WWE Intercontinental Champion The Miz. Good heel promo by Miz before the match. Maryse was later ejected after trying to interfere * WWE Cruiserweight Champion Neville retained over Cedric Alexander with his feet on the ropes * AJ Styles defeated Kevin Owens to become the new WWE United States Champion. The crowd went nuts over the title change. Styles hit the Phenomenal Forearm for the pin after Owens kicked out of a Styles Clash * Mickie James, Sasha Banks and Bayley defeated RAW Women's Champion Alexa Bliss, Emma and Nia Jax when Emma tapped to Sasha * Finn Balor defeated Karl Anderson in under 2 minutes. Luke Gallows was at ringside * RAW Tag Team Champions Sheamus and Cesaro retained over The Hardys * Roman Reigns defeated Bray Wyatt. The crowd was back and forth with reactions to Reigns all during the match. After, Braun Strowman came out to one of the biggest pops of the night. Reigns met Braun with punches but Braun took him out. Cedric Alexander ran out but got dropped, as did R-Truth. Wyatt then attacked Rollins but Roman saved Rollins from the double team and they cleared the ring. Reigns and Rollins stood tall as fans chanted for Dean Ambrose and The Shield Side note, awesome that Cedric got a match at the Garden. Did Aries ever wrestle in the Garden? Purely speculation, but I wonder if him not on the card played a part in his departure. Don't think he did

US Title is a major title? 2nd oldest title in the company and some of best ever held it. But the real question is this: Did AJ outdrew Kevin Nash's 30,000 to MSG?

... whoa. Really? Will she be an on-air personality or is it just an interview for the channel? Just the interview for a Kurt Angle documentary. ... but how can she sell that to Corgan?

Since this was a Raw brand event, I wonder if they over turn the title change on SDL. A simple, "Yes we agreed to let you work the Garden for Raw but never approved the title match so Owens is still the champ".

I thought it was branded as a supershow, at least that's how it was advertised locally here in the NYC area. I'm kicking myself for not going, sounded like a good lineup.

This footage is so great for so many reasons. 1) That split-second after the count to three before the crowd explodes. 2) The footage has the audience somewhat blurry, but just in focus enough to capture how many jaws dropped. 3) As someone who goes out of his way to watch MSG house show footage, the crowd's in such a frenzy even prior to the finish, and AJ winning is just like some wildest dream lottery winning release of exuberance once he gets the title. 4) The announcer declaring AJ the new title holder, you can just hear the subtle timbre in his voice that he's geeked about a surprise like this too. This is just such an example of what makes wrestling great in one little perfect clip. Thanks for sharing.
