Alexa Bliss is really the best.  More evidence that Sportskeeda is a garbage website and should be nuked from orbit.  Besides that, I liked how they got across Bliss making history tonight and being the first Superstar to win both women's title belts.  

House of Horrors match was only missing a cobra biting Ultimate Warrior's face and Jake The Snake Roberts telling Orton he's the dumbest rabbit he's ever seen.  

Not really surprised Joe lost to Rollins, but Joe was the best part of that whole entire match.  Now that this is over, can we stop having the Rollins knee injury be a thing in stories and matches anymore.  

What was the point of Jericho beating Owens?  

Glad Strowman got the win over Reigns.  So there's that at least.

Since I refuse to believe that Bray Wyatt actually hails from San Jose, I think we can safely assume that he's totally not getting his deposit back on that house.

Which, since wherever it is is within driving distance of San Jose, must have been about ten grand or so.

Only in professional wrestling can you tip a refrigerator on someone and they still beat you back to the arena.

Hey, you don't know that.  There could be a bunch of fridge attacks in other sports unaccounted for.  And considering Randy appeared to shove the fridge off of him immediately, he clearly wasn't that worse for wear.  All he needed was a second limo in waiting and to sabotage Wyatt by telling the first driver who was on his payroll to take the long way in case Bray gets in.

I could ramble for paragraphs about everything wrong with the House of Horrors match, but I'll keep it simple. It was a total bore. Like, grade school Haunted House level decor. Ridiculously ponderous. Bray clearly had no game plan. Its his place right? Why not have a bunch of weapons at the ready? Or booby traps? Or a whole crew of dudes ready to pummel Orton? What it comes down to is that should've been campy fun, not some far too serious grudge fight. Dud city.

My 8 year old daughter asked me, "Daddy, why do Bray Wyatt and Randy Orton have to be creepy weirdos?"  I said, "I don't know, but at least Randy Orton wore pants out in public this time, it could have been creepier and weirder."  She also felt bad for Roman because she thought he was really hurt.  When I told her that he was fine she busted out one of my favorite lines ever from Talking Smack, "Daddy, you know what's funny about Roman Reigns?  Nothing."  I love that kid.

Was I the only one who thought Joe's right shoulder was up during that pin?

Nope, my son said the exact same thing. I guess we'll see if they make a big deal of it tomorrow night. I didn't catch any mention of it on the call tonight.

Well, he did picked up a shovel in the living room/den/whatever and just threw it away...

I had thought the RAW Women's championship was the original women's championship lineage but then I remember.. it's not.  The RAW title was spawn from the Divas title. The SDL title is a brand new title.

Correct. The WWE Women's Championship debuted at WrestleMania 32 won by Charlotte against Sasha Banks and Becky Lynch in a triple threat match. The title was named as the WWE RAW Women's Championship when the roster split came back.

Smackdown Live needed their version, the belt was shown on the post SummerSlam 2016 Smackdown Live. Becky Lynch became the first WWE Smackdown Live Women's Champion outlasting Alexa Bliss, Nikki Bella, Naomi, Natalya and Carmella, a six pack elimination match at Backlash 2016.

To be fair, they merged the women's title and divas title when they consolidated belts as the original brand split weakened, so it's probably fair to give the RAW women's title both lineages.
