It's who Roman should have been aspiring to be this whole time.

Excited for the Royal Rumble. I'm genuinely eager to hear how they book each spot and entry and somehow we still get surprised. Even if the last three winners were seen from a mile away

Funny that's when he was at his best. How first run I didn't care for. 2nd was better. 3rd was forgotten. Then when he came back to make Shawn his bitch it was awesome.
Hearing them just chant sid over and over and the fist bumps and the name fireworks rule.

If Titus became The Man, I'd love it. But it's OK to dream James. It's ok.
Just got to Takeover. Liked it but didn't love it. Still a fun show. I'm cool with he crowd having a good time but eventually they came off as a little obnoxious. Felt like the theme of the night was the popular name's opponents busting their asses.
Asuka did her thing as usual but Emma worked her ass off too. That short arm clothesline was brutal. Better than the women's title match.
Surprised but happy Enzo and Cass didn't win. They're over enough without the belts. Meanwhile Dawson and Wilder did a tremendous job. They work like such a cohesive tag team and the finish was dope. Hopefully it's Jordan and Gable up next.
Corbin and Crews have no chemistry at all. Surprised by the finish but Corbin has improved quite a bit so I'm ok with the win. Its time for Crews to get a personality or he's pretty much hit his ceiling at this point.
Bayley/Nia was decent for what it was. Nia is still pretty green but she's got a lot of potential. She works her size and moveset pretty well. The Asuka setup is an interesting clash of styles. Props to Bayley for bumping her ass off too.
Balor/Joe- again, props to Joe. He looked and worked like ROH Joe all over again. I hate to say it but I'm over Balor at this point. If you've seen one Balor match, you've seen them all. And what's the point of "The Demon" if he wrestles the exact same match as regular, non painted Balor? Joe winning would've been dope.
All in all, good show! Hope they kill it with the next one!

I just stumbled upon some ryback videos on youtube where hes picking on people like arena workers and amateur wrestlers and its fucking great. I hate the current ryback, I never saw this heel ryback before.
Bring heel ryback back.

I was thinking, and if anyone backstage really wants to get rid of that terrible Divas title belt, now is the chance to do it. You have a built in story. Flair took pride in carrying around the gold belt, so you could easily create a scenario where after Charlotte finishes with Becky, she sees herself as above the small butterfly belt and brings in a more prestigious belt.
But they'll probably just keep it because I mean who gives a shit about women really?
That's kind of the point. The "WWE style" is built around familiarity between the crowd and the wrestlers. It's why everyone on the roster has a handful of spots that they do in every single match.

My 14 year old sister said the same about Apollo crews. So he can flip, big deal. So can a lot of big dudes. I still don't get what his character is.
Loved the crowd. Maybe it's because I'm a soccer fan that looks forward to visiting friends in Manchester and going to games. Full sail takes the obnoxious cake.

He's more "Vince" material than most on the roster. Actually them all.
Something about Finn matches, while great, doesn't grab me as much I would've liked. That Ripper entrance was dope tho.
Dana and Emma are an amazing heel duo, one of my favorite things right now is how Dana talk shit outside the ring. That match with Asuka was stiff as hell too, good on Emma to take so many nasty hits.
Fantastic story telling during Bayley/Nia match, they kept the moves simple since Nia's still green and Bayley bumped the hell out of it for her. She got this babyface in peril thing down to a T.
This is a man that knows he's standing next to a ATM machine for the next 5 years:

It wouldn't matter if you had, pretty much everyone who'd seen his work before he signed to WWE said the same thing: he has all the tools, but lacks the experience. He'd only been wrestling five years before being signed, never won a major singles title, never got much chance to develop a personality. He's definitely more of a work in progress than some of the featured stars on NXT at present.
This generation of fans are odd. Her moveset was fucking perfect how on earth was it limited based on experience?
"Hey Vader you green piece of shit, you don't do enough MOVES~!"
They would call Randy Savage matches boring because he's not doing spinning sit-down powerbombs or a Yoshi Tonic.

People were pissed about the Ryback/Owens match because reasons. It was a great match, but because Owens was working as a heel and the match was slow-paced (which was perfect), it was "bad."

That was just unjust negativity against THE BIG GUY.

What do you expect, though? The same people who were told the phrase "make Roman look strong" continue to hate Ryback for hearsay reasons.

He has always been just plain fun to watch. I'm looking forward to him developing WHO he is in WWE. In the indies it isn't anywhere as necessary as it is in a bigger promotion so we will need to see how it all turns out for him.
Corbin was impressive, mainly in the psychology department. He chickens out and runs when he should, it feels right.
The thing I liked most about the Bayley/Jax match was how Bayley basically kayfabe exposed the fact that Nia Jax is a one dimensional fighter and couldn't fight off Bayley's more varied offense.
I'm also really excited for the Asuka/Jax feud they teased yesterday. Asuka's feud with Emma and Dana really should be over and if Asuka can run through Jax then she's basically female Brock Lesnar in my book.

Is there any McMahon she can date?Bayley's match reminded me of Hogan vs Monster of the Week, in a good way. And she bumps and sells similarly to a Babyface HBK.
She's really good.
And she'll be destroyed on the main roster in 3 months
