I'd still prefer 2. It's a quick saturday night alternative to a movie at that rate, without having to go out.

It just makes me hate their 3 hour Raws even more since they can't even fill that crap up 90% of the time.

Depends on the movie lol. But you're right about the raw comparison. They need to change the format of those 3 hours. Tonight as you saw less is more; sd falls under the umbrella. I find myself wanting more simply because of Raw and its 3 hours m.

New Day V League of Nations was fun also.

Oh, I skipped that. I skipped everything I didn't list. The three matches I watched were fine, though. But you're not missing much if you skip 'em. I assume that's true for the entire show.

Oh, wait! I watched Enzo/Cass vs. The Revival, too! That was a lot of fun.

P.S. The Revival has the worst music ever. And that one guy still has the worst look ever.

"We have this house show that falls on a Saturday we are paying Brock and whatnot why not throw it on the network since we do not have a PPV this month" ?
I think even most in here advised people that it was just a house show so do not have stupid expectations.

Something unique for the Network on the road to WrassleMania?

Back to what's important: 1998!

Damn right son

Triple H vs. Dean Ambrose clocked in at 24:43. This is the longest singles WWE title match with no gimmick stipulations since Daniel Bryan vs. John Cena at SummerSlam 2013, which clocked in at 26:55.

This was the exact same referee that reversed Ambrose pinning Seth way back at EC.But its the same ref that counted Romans pin when Vince was special referee and refusing to count

Ken Shamrock's Alex Riley RAAAGE is tiring.

Gangrel's kinda cool. I was never sold on him before, but he seems interesting enough. We'll see how I feel after a few matches.

Event last night was a lot of fun. Even though the main event outcome was expected the match was great. Probably one of the better title matches we've seen in a while. Ambrose and Triple H work better together than you would expect.

Got home and watched it on TV again and it seems to have played as well on TV as it did live.


Glad people were really into that women's match as well.

It's too bad Sami Zayn's match wasn't that great as I was really looking forward to seeing him.

That was absolutely better than Fastlane.

Watched Roadblock a lot of good matches with exception of Brock vs Bray/Luke and Jericho vs Swagger.

I feel like they're trying to make Swagger into Kurt Angle lite and it just isn't working. Let Swagger do something else.

So what was the point of Roadblock?

The only thing I got from it was "Please cheer for Roman when he tries to get do what your favorite couldn't next month". . The rest was a literal copy from the house show the night before.

The Bray Wyatt of his day. Completely misused.
Could have been fantastic, should have been a killer. Instead ...bleh.

It was a house show that pretty much was already on the books, so they put it on the Network since there are no ppvs this month and since they had Brock booked.

It was over a month between Fastlane and Wrestlemania and they needed something to get network subscriptions.

Then. Now. Forever.

Just finished watching Roadblock. Enzo & Cass Vs Revival was pretty hype.

Haitch vs Ambrose was a decent little match too. Even if Ambrose is not in a title match, I'm glad he's getting a main event type match at Mania with Brock, the dude is going to put on something special I feel like.

Also Stardust needs to desperately switch back to Cody Rhodes already. His in ring heel work as Stardust is like watching fucking paint dry. He managed to keep the crowd down in a match with Sami Zayn in Toronto...that should be some sort of sign.

I call shenanigans. Droz beat Bradshaw. But that's fine if Bart knocks out Bradshaw. That's what happens, right?

Yeah, Stardust needs to go. Cody Rhodes could be doing something much better. The gimmick isn't working and has no heat. Just kill it.

Cody needs to go away. ROH, NJPW or something

I'd say it happened because otherwise there wasn't a PPV/special event in the month of March.

I got home around 1 am last night and decided Id watch Road Block.

First off, that was a good event. It didnt feel like 3 hours. I thought it was well paced. The only match I fast forwarded through was Swagger vs Y2J. I just dont need to see Jack Swagger on my TV anymore and I knew the result that was coming anyway.

I thought maybe the best match of the night was Nattie vs Charolette. I might be wrong, but I thought it was actually really well paced and told a story through out. Since ive gotten back into wrestling, ive NEVER seen Nattie perform like that. This match completely changed my opinion on her as a wrestler. Honestly, she shouldnt be clumped into the Total Divas girls like the bellas and alicia fox. Shes better than that.

We all knew the outcome of the final match. But damn, they definitely got me to mark out on that 3 count before the ref said his legs were under the ropes.

The New Day are always going to be fucking awesome and I loved their intro. Great way to kick off the show, and they have totally gone full face.

And finally, Enzo and Cass not winning was pretty dumb. But, I have a feeling they will get the titles at Takeover. Dash and Dawson are the most boring looking dudes ive ever seen and I cant wait til they lose the belts and fall back into obscurity.

You know what I like about Val Venis? His big splash. It's not quite Snuka level, but it's very good.

I love how he did a big splash and called it 'the money shot' because porno reasons.

Basically his finisher was a metaphorical spunk over his prone opponent.
