If he feuds with Jericbo, Ron Misterio 

I am doubting that indie scum legend Dave Mysterio trademarked that.  Problem solved

Jesus Christ. That has to be fake, right? Even WWE wouldn't be that fucking dumb to simulate PULLING OUT AN EYEBALL...Right?

No, but they think we're dumb enough to have forgotten last year's Hell In A Cell. 

"The only way to win is to pull out an eye" is technically, paradoxically, not a "no disqualifications" match, therefore it can end on a disqualification.

Rollins will turn back face by REFUSING to heed the call for needless bloodshed and walking out of the match rather than maiming anyone for life, even his most hated rival.  Gonna be a father soon, have to be a positive example, blah blah.

[mystman 281]

Actually, I'm betting that it's Rey who spares Rollins.

Another one: Mystyzyz! 

Oh wait...

If we can get him to say his name backwards, does he poof back to his home in the 5th Dimension?

I don’t mind the Eye vs Eye stip, but the winner getting this trophy seems like it’s in bad taste. 

On a sidenote, that statue is awesome. I loled when I actually discovered it.

As Asuka and Sasha Banks are wrestling on this show, WWE's uploaded their RAW match 24 hours after the 2018 Royal Rumble.

So is Dominick's new gimmick going to be F M Stereo?

New poster from WWE. Liking it.

[The Natural 28,333]

Just added. Before the Boneyard match with AJ Styles at WrestleMania XXXVI, this No Holds Barred Match pitting The Undertaker/Roman Reigns vs. Drew McIntyre/Shane McMahon was Undertaker's best match and performance since his Hell in a Cell match with Brock Lesnar from Hell in a Cell 2015.

This card does very little for me on paper. I'm in no rush to watch it. I'm intrigued by the women's matches. I'm kind of curious if Sasha wins and let's us set up a unification match at Summerslam.

[Robert s 218]

Dolph Ziggler challenging for the world title really matches the Horror Show theme. If I ever decide to watch that show, I definitely know which match I will skip.

I'd like a Two Woman Power Trip but I'd guess the likelier scenario is Sasha loses to Asuka and then the rift between her and Bayley deepens

Good evening, Rey Mysterio... Be well!

[Death From Above 4,829]

Didn't watch this and won't be anytime soon, but Alvarez was on fire on twitter at least.

[Niners Fan in CT 14,188]

Ummm....   WWE can't book a straightforward finish (or any finish) to save their lives but great match while it lasted and NEW RAW Women's Champion!! (for 24 hours) 

 

[hammerva 4,406]

So I guess Braun lost the match because he was eaten like a shark by a fat guy in a leather mask?

If you take away the finishes of most of the matches this was a good show.   Otherwise this show was really bad 

[Iron Moose 100]

moreso than usual, they can literally do anything (given the pandemic/performance center era) ... and they did that.

 

 

[Raziel 8,210]

So there was some real shitty camera work (like the camera catching that Rey was like, half a foot away from that step when his "eye" was ripped out by getting pushed in or something..., being dead centered on Kari tossing Asuka the mist packet)

There was some real good wrestling on the show.

There were some REAL shitty finishes on this show.

Is the Fiend Champ via murder now?

 

I'm real torn.  I'd like cinematic matches to be over so we can stop getting shit like this where Bray thinks he's the most creative artist in wrestling history.  On the other hand, they keep him the fuck out of the ring so, yeah.

Two Woman Power Trip. 

[Niners Fan in CT 14,188]

Best part of that bullshit main event was Force Ghost Alexa Abigail  

 

[hammerva 4,406]

Yes i guess the main thing we got out of the match is that if you want to distract Braun try to have him focus on his sexual fantasies with Alexa Bliss?  

[D.Z 8,340]

Abigail Bliss.

[For Great Justice 1,023]

I submit this show as a contender in the good wrestling with absolute dog shit finishes Olympics. 

Cesaro did fucking plant Kofi with that powerbomb though.
