Okada vs Fale got 4* and it was absolutely forgetful.

It is only 12:30 AM here, so I feel bad for Amerifriends especially. But I have to go to bed myself now.
What a fantastic fucking show that was. So happy to watch it with everyone <3
I'm pissed with Heroman for not being here though.

I think I actually enjoyed this match better than the Dome match
Dome had some incredible spots (the dive, the table, the top rope dragon suplex) but once this one got going it was unreal
Though, maybe the difference is I caught this live whereas I knew Omega lost when I woke up and watched WK

People really still underrating Okada's ability to carry people?
That's what I'm talking about. No one will remember Okada/Cody.
...but it will get 4 stars because 4 stars isn't anything special in New Japan when you have people in the company that can carry anyone to a good match.

So who fucking cares then...
This is my point this is their big American special... it should have a main event better than forgettable.

Probably Okada...

I wanna give Heroman a hug because he was so sure that Kenny was getting the belt.
And now fucking Cody Rhodes is going for the belt? Lord.

I dunno. Anyone? There's very few people they can't sign, ultimately.
It's more interesting trying to figure out who'll be a big deal once WWE inevitably start making some cuts. Easy money's on Cesaro or Kalisto.

What's the time limit? An hour?

Kalisto is fucking shit though

Big deal on the indies, I mean - obviously guys like Cesaro & Kalisto (who've already had success pre-WWE) would do well, but it'd be interesting to see who'd end up on the in-vogue indies and who'd stick to the ex-WWE local family show circuit. Drew Galloway made a big splash, for instance, when I don't think many expected him to - comparatively, no one gave a shit about Curt Hawkins (and with good reason).
Nah, WWE's just trash. His trilogy of matches with El Generico in EVOLVE were awesome, back when he was Samuray Del Sol - I'd LOVE to see that guy mix it up with the current crop of high-flyers.

Oh yeah Cesaro then... Kalisto maaaaybe but probably not in the US... maybe the UK scene

WWE won't release Cesaro. He may never be a top guy but he has been consistently pushed in the midcard and right now is currently a tag champ. The only way he leaves is if he asks to leave.

No lies detected.
Adam Cole Baybay
Yeah, he's one of the most talented in-ring guys on the roster. He even had a good match with Ryback of all people
He definitely will.
To be given an hour like that last night is huge, Kenny is a made man.
Belts change hands but last time they did a time limit like that was like 2005

Kalisto vs Apollo on the Extreme Rules pre-show was really good. Kalisto as a wrestler is great, but on the mic, he's a good Lucha Thing.

The WWE effect.
So Tanahashi vs Nakamura was the go to feud for the early 00's generation (03/04 onwards, right?) basically NJPW's Rock vs Austin.
Okada vs Omega is new rivalry to top all rivalries. Even if Omega fails in match number 3 I will still be invested until the very end where Omega can finally topple his biggest demon.

That is a smart move.
So when Cody came storming down I thought they were going to the BC split angle there and then. It's hard to tell if the distraction was intentional or Kenny didn't know it was going to happen and it just happened to work out. `
But the split has now definitively been teased and it's now only a matter of time imo.

If or when the split happens and Kenny plus the Bucks get kicked out, it will be time for Based Cody to be the leader of the BC.

Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"
Which he wouldn't unless he hates money. I don't get the idea WWE would cut Cesaro. Dude isn't a main eventer but he's been a staple of the company for like 5 years.
They have tons of guys on the roster who are never on television like Darren Young or Bo Dallas. Cesaro is consistently on television every week.

Goddamnit. I thought Money in the Bank was today and got all excited since I like that PPV and then I realized it's next week. :-(

Scorpio $500 tho
It was never going to sell well, especially outside of Americas mark audience, at least now they have an excuse.

I'm laughing at the people defending it by saying "It's a premium product not for general consumers". At $499 I just don't know what market it's really aimed at because anyone who truly is a numbers/power nerd is likely playing on a PC already and no basic gamer is going to drop $500 when the S is cheaper.

They lost bad to PlayStation and figured instead of competing they would try and go for the PC gaming crowd, not realizing they would not be interested in a console that can do what they already can do on their gaming rig.
Typical MS really, they are kings in looking for niches that do not exist.
It'll be even more in the UK
TarpitCarnivore

I really feel like MS is vastly over estimating how much the console market cares about 4k 60fps, especially at $500. This year we saw Horizon come out and it looked down right incredible even on an OG PS4. And this is even more laughable if the thing is going to launch with Forza. Supposedly Crackdown 3 will have destructive environments, but hasn't Frostbite been offering that for years?
I'm not trying to be anti- MS but this really feels stupid
