Let's bring this thread back to the front page!
Nice ending to the women's triple threat and a solid match. Lots of filler in this episode again, with Jobber vs. Dude-with-wins left and right.Owens/Riley was a lot less engaging than the one they aired first from the Arnold Classic, which was really their second match. I think this one was really relying on Alex Riley having his first tough match in ages and the crowd being invested in that--but that doesn't work so well when he's already fought and lost to Kevin Owens again.
That's really been the problem the last few weeks. The episodes have been shuffled around, and "specials" have been shunted in, so the subtle flow from episode to episode was majorly disrupted. I will say, though, that it's quite the accomplishment that they've been able to do that without too many glaring problems.
Hopefully with a new round of tapings and Mania out of the way and some people called up now, they'll be able to get back to what we're used to.
