Nice to see the Anaconda Vise being used once again.

Knew he'd break out the vice since it was for a glorified squash.

Plus he wouldn't be able to lift him up

'The Fact' CM Punk.

Fill me in, guys: Is Orton no longer a main-eventer? Haven't kept up with wrestling for years, and last time I watched, Orton was GOAT. Him being in the opening match threw me off a bit.

Just catching up now. Good move to start with Vince in the ring, not sure about Show interrupting him though. Ziggler vs. Cena inside a cage should be a good match, definitely their go to match right now. Pleasantly surprised that Barrett beat Orton. Dr Shelby segments seem good, I like the ending where he gets them to attack Rhodes Scholars. Shield attacking Foley after his HOF announcement is a good idea, having Sheamus, Orton and Ryback run them off works for me as well.

Weird seeing Clay get a match against Punk, nice seeing the Anaconda Vice again.

Idk he can do it to Kane with no problem so might be able to lift Brodus.

I liked that after match promo.

Big names often times open the show these days, now him losing clean was a surprise to all..... he's had 2 drug test failures and isn't held quite as high as he once was but is still considered a "top guy"

He is a maineventer but he isn't the top guy anymore, he is now around number three on Smackdown. Two Wellness Policy violations have hurt him quite a bit because if he tests positive again he is fired.

He pretty much fell off the main event map about a year ago and is basically midcarding.

We seriously need Stone Cold out here tonight.

He's been irrelevant for maybe a year and a half now.

Edge in that Flair Road rage

Shit man, Kane vs. Shane was the shit back in the day. LOVED that feud.

Ah, alright. Thanks, bud. How long has it been since he was WWE/World Champion?

JTG was just given 4 more years he had a segment on TV
