Jesus Christ. Just got to the Lesnar/Gunther standoff and the pop is proof positive that we need that match sooner rather than later.

When I watched it live I was too pumped to notice the crowd reaction. Triple H has to notice that.

Can't blame him. That whole night was a career-maker for him.

Meanwhile just saw the Logan Paul/Ricochet collision. Logan Paul would have hit the opposite ropes had Ricochet not been there. Crazy athleticism.

Gunther is amazing. Logan got more air then riccohet too. Guy may be a douche but he's athletic for sure

Yeah I've definitely been impressed by Logan in all his showings so far. He really understands the fundamentals, the guy is just naturally gifted athlete. He's picked this up so much better than he did Boxing. Knows how to work a crowd well too.

Also I was not surprised to see Nia Jax back in the WWE during the rumble. Deep down in my gut I knew she would return. Some people on this thread and site forgets that Nia Jax is a HHH project/girl. During NXT 2015-16, the start of the black and gold era, he pushed the hell out of her. Gave her title shots. The only person to beat her was Asuka and Bayeley, no one else. Gave her a streak too. So yeah, you can thank Triple H for asking the board to bring Nia back.

Uncommon Triple H L. Like I won't be crude to mock her weight or appearance. But her history in the ring is concerning, personality wise out of it makes it hard to sperate the artist from the art, and if you want a powerhouse in the women's division, there are better options now like Piper Niven who is already on her way to being rehabbed.
