FOUR!

..Was gonna do 3, but thought I'd be nice

 

[Jay-Ashley]

Overall, the show was decent and average. Miz winning was good and Rusev winning was a shock. Mandy pinning Becky was stupid and Ceasro winning was cool. 5/10

 

[Jacob Fox]

A decent show with a definitely odd ending. I gave it a 6. Miz vs Jeff Hardy was a very good match and it was interesting to see Rusev win. Interested to see where it will go.

Few thoughts on it.

- Miz is consistently putting on great performances.

- Becky Lynch is now jobbing to jobbers.

- Rusev finally gets a meaningful win.

5/10 average show.

Okay... lets see what happening on the "The Asuka, Becky & Charlotte" Show this
week...

+ Okay...so the Miz should be the U.S Champion now right? I'm glad he's in the
MitB ladder match...although Jeff should be in that match as well...

+ Didn't we already do this New Day/The Bar feud before? Like The Bar were the
team to end the New Days record setting reign as tag champions...am I the only
one who remembers that?

+ Nakamura is nothing but a loser...

+ I hate the fact that an annoying female clown with no make up has the SDL women's
title...fucking hack.

We already did this with Alexa Bliss & now we are doing the exact same thing with
Carmella.

THIS FUCKING SUCKS!!!

:disapprove:

+ Okay so I'm going to be perfectly honest...ever since they have arrived on the
main roster...I just can't stand the Iconic Duo. I think I'm slowly growing to actually
hate them...and not in a good "Their the Heels" hate...more like actual SKIP!!! Hate.

:disapprove:

I'm sorry...but their "gimmick" worked in NXT...but here...its just...kind of lame.

Wow...they should start a proper faction...Carmella, Peyton & Billie...Hot...But Lame.

+ And Charlotte is in the MitB ladder match! Good...but she doesn't need to win
it WWE...unless you are actually going to do something interesting with it...like
say use it to move her to RAW before Wrestlemania 35 or something like that.

+ Wow...a member of the Bar had a win...seems like a while since we've seen that.

+ I'm so done with the Styles/Nakamua feud...SKIP!!!

+ You know...I'd actually like to see Harper & Rowan wrestle a match longer than
five minutes...just saying.

+ Hey Paige...are you going enforce the same "Barred from Ringside" rules with
the IIconics? I'm just curious is all.

+ FUCK YOU WWE!!! QUIT DOING THIS TO BECKY YOU PRICKS!!! STOP TRYING
TO TURN HER INTO BAYLEY 2.0!!!

:disapprove:

Carmella goes over Charlotte clean, Mandy goes over Becky clean...I mean I'm all
for pushing new talent...but only when they actually have WRESTLING talent!!!

This wasn't a MitB qualifying match was it? Becky better be in the women's MitB match...
I swear!

But on a more positive note...Becky's outfit was Straight Fire & Mandy's new entrance was
near perfect. We just need to pair her up with Goldust & her transformation into Rosedust
can begin.

+ So...Rusev gets to be in the MitB ladder match...by defeating Daniel Bryan. The
WWE creative/booking team has no fucking idea what they are doing do they.

And...no Asuka, no Samoa Joe, no SAni†Y, no Andrade “Cien” Almas...WTF?!

All in All...SDL is already starting to piss me off...especially with how Becky is being
booked.

And I'm Done...

[Mr. Roman Empire]

I wonder if Daniel Bryan had anything to do with the decision of letting Rusev go over.

Bryan seems like the selfless type who would let Rusev get that win cuz he sees that the crowd is feelin the whole Rusev Day thing and Bryan knows that he will most likely have his own separate match on the card if hes not in the MITB match. Rusev on the other hand would most likely not make it on the card or at very best be on the pre show somewhere
