9/10

I see why they kept stopping to wipe Joe off... that looked like a decent gash. But I loved the fuck pg chants lol.
And a surprising finish to the main event but I liked it. Goes along with their feud nicely from what I caught in the promo.
Had they not Joe would probably be at least temporarily blind on one eye now. It was necessary

No I get that and I agree with the decision to keep cleaning him up. I'm just saying I liked the fuck pg chant. Maybe not the best timing for it though. If anything it probably worked against itself to the company.
It was just nice to hear fuck on wwe nowadays lol

The people with the most memorable moment from last night is probably the McMahons. Linda, Stephanie and Shane's sons were sitting right at ringside and you can clearly see one of Shane's kids pulling grandma Linda out of the way as a bloody Samoa Joe came flying through the ropes for the tope suicida.

Joe probably bled on Linda McMahon last night. Career highlight?

Superb ppv, a solid 9/10 all the way through, if i hadn't seen much of AA i would have liked the match more, but having seen what Aries can pull out, was kinda a wee bit let down, but hell if that was the worst match on the card, then that says how good it was, shit Mania has a hell of a lot to follow

Loved the little teasers of people watching (yes please Bobby Roode), the crowd was phenomenal as well, really liked the farewell they gave Sammy

Another downer on this show: The anti PG geeks who got pissed off at WWE for making sure Joe did not go blind

I'm glad someone else agrees with me on that. During the live discussion, I even remarked that I was confused about the booing. It was pretty obvious they weren't stopping the blood to keep from showing blood, they were doing to keep the blood out of Joe's eye to keep him from going blind.

And actually I didn't think it interrupted the flow of the match at all. It actually gave the match a more realistic feeling.

Same. It's the same procedure used in any other combat sport in the same situation. Shouldn't that make wrestling seem more "legit"?

But the AE geeks gotta protest about anything that makes wrestling seem less hardcore I guess. Let's ignore the fact that Joe had the best match he's had in a decade and was covered in blood for it all.

Something I've found online.

Vince: You think Takeover is gonna be so great? I'm giving them Shane O Mac at WrestleMania!
Trips: I'm giving them Shinsuke Nakamura.
Vince: Well I'm giving them Dean Ambrose.
Trips: I'm giving them Finn Balor.
Vince: With a-
Trips: With a chainsaw.
Vince: GODDAMMIT!

First NXT I've watched in a long time. Was awesome so much love for it. Made me remember why I love watching wrestling in the first place. An the crowd was so hot it just added to the excitement and tension in every match. Nakumura and Zayn was amazing and Joe and Balor was great as well. Plus loving seeing Aries and marked out so much seeing Bobby Roode as well. 9/10.

First I've watched in a long while, and A Double vs Corbin was sick. Not a fan of a ton of the other changes but it's wm and we are going to see a TON of callups. Asuka is a beast , and a ton of great matches. I cant complain, 8.
