I was about to follow up with 'depends which half' . Though I think the bad boy got his math(s) wrong.

I meant because Rollins lost. Alexa Bliss is a classy young woman and I would never....

I'm wearing egg on my face lol, but as a huge fan of Wyatt's I'm pretty damn proud to be wrong.

 

Super interested to see how they get him back to Raw tomorrow night on Smackdown.

 

Team Flair v Team Hogan was fun, I dug the chants for Harper and wouldn't have minded him winning over Carillo, but Carillo/AJ wasn't bad at all.

The less said about Cain/Brock the better.

I'm unclear was this a one shot for Cain(forgive my ignorance) or is he signed?  Having him come in to further a Brock/Mysterio feud wouldnt be the worst idea ever and I'd be all in on Mysterio/Lesnar happening, possibly at Mania?

Cain is signed.

Can’t help but admire Brock’s approach of going on early, wrapping up in under 5 minutes, and getting out of town

He supposedly had to stop and give Hogan/Flair a ride on his private jet somewhere they got held up so he probably wanted to skip out on them so he doesn’t have to hear woooo and brother for however many hours straight again on the plane ride back.

Seth should've just turned his back on Bray and refused to believe in him like Nancy did in the original Nightmare On Elm Street. That way the Fiend would've vanished into thin air.

So what we should be doing is getting Seth to say the words "Sgnillor Htes?"

So USA Network drafted Nikki Cross and Alexa Bliss to Raw separately when a tag team counts as one. So they wasted an extra pick in the draft to only trade them back to Smackdown later?

And Raw conducted this trade to get a future trade back in case their champion lost to a FOX wrestler? Alright then.

I read he picked them up in Iceland. According to Google it's a 12 hour flight from Iceland to Saudi Arabia. I love Ric Flair. But could you imagine being in a small plane at about the six hour mark when he starts salsa dancing and cutting a promo on Hogan.

So i only watched like an hour of the show. To be honest I was only interested in the women's match to see how long it would go and what they would have to wear. As much as I like Lacey with her pinup gimmick, I liked her look in minimal make up. This was also easily her best tv match since NXT.

Fury vs. Braun wasn't the train wreck I thought it would be. Still akward at times, but Tyson could really make a go in wrestling if he wanted.

I was plesantly suripsied but Cesaro vs. Mansoor. Mansoor came off as a total star and they should really try to do something with him. Cesaro also might be a Bret Hart level miracle worker when it comes to carrying guys.

Imagining Brock’s face if Flair did his naked under the robe gimmick. 

Wouldn't be the first time Brock saw that. Plane Ride from Hell in 2002.

EDIT: Speaking of planes.

WWE's travel schedule is insane but especially going from the USA to Saudi Arabia, back to America and the UK tour starts next week.

Keep them over there for the UK tour. Use some longer matches on SDL to keep things going.

Bryan can wrestle Sami Zayn. Add in promo time and there's 45 mins.

Kabuki Warriors defend against IIconics - 15 mins.

Bayley vs Carmella for the Women's title - 15 mins.

Drew Gulak vs a local jobber with a promo - 15 mins.

Some backstage stuff with Fire and Desire, Elias and maybe Drake Maverick. Is Big Show still around? Add in a highlight package of CJ, highlighting that SDL now has the Universal Championship, and a 2 hour show is filled pretty easily.

Are there any more "free agents" they could plug into SDL for the night?

And as much as I love Gallows and Anderson, wouldn't the best ending to the tag team thingy have been the AOP coming out as the unannounced final team and immediately getting some shine?

Wait, what?

During entrances - both Lacey and Nattie had water bottles thrown at them

Now my initial comment was tongue in cheek since it clearly was only like 1 or 2 people doing it however, the WWE marketing of the match (as per usual) irritated me.
