I'm digging Becky Lynch. Not sure I really "get" the reason she is hanging with Sasha Banks, and not just her own bad-ass girl right now, but she looks amazing, and it makes sense to have her on the bad side, since Charlotte and Bayley are the good girls.

Also, the girl I talked about in that Carmella/Emma situation really should have been Alexa Bliss. Have Bliss roll-up Carmella, and then Carmella shows her true colors. Bam, yet another Divas feud on the developmental show. And since they are both still learning, a clean win on Carmella's end down the track doesn't make Bliss look terrible.
The characters are so interesting, I think they could actually have run Charlotte, Bayley & Alexa Bliss vs. Sasha Banks, Becky Lynch & Carmella as a main event on one of their shows. |

Also it makes sense in the circle. Sasha Banks was the random face that Summer Rae taught to be the bad ass Boss she became. Now she is teaching a new student. |

Rewatched the diva match and I can't figure out when Alexa busted her nose open. Was it on the corner flapjack?

Last I read Itami actually went a bit too far with his WWE style to the point they actually told him to go back a bit to his normal style. Something about his kicks and/or strikes looking really bad even for WWE standards. |

Blake and Murphy's team theme sounds really similar to what the WWE used for the Network's pre-launch hype videos. Wouldn't be surprised if they really did just recycle it with a few tweaks.

Alex Riley is a pretty terrible commentator. I'd much rather they gave Christian a shot or something.

That's too hard for my Roku device. I kinda like him on the pre-shows for Raw but he's shit calling a match.

It's like they told Riley to be exactly like JBL. I understand that there's good balance to having a heel announcer, but if he needs to go against literally everything anybody else says it just comes across as unbearably annoying.

Riley doesn't have the credibility to be that sort of heel announcer. If Jason Albert was defending a heel's actions, because sometimes you've got gotta get ruthless, it makes sense. He's been around the block, competed at WrestleMania and won championships. Riley had some moments, but he never won a title, and no one is really clamouring to hear his "insight." He should be looking to Byron Saxton as to what to do as a heel announcer, but the thing is, they already have Byron Saxton for that.

crowd keeping track how long the Corban-Sampson match lasted and then lost interest doing the same in the middle of the Dempsey match. Even booed a bit when the Dempsey match went on longer than 20-30 seconds.

I've been waiting to see what Corbin actually has to offer outside of hitting his finish, but with the crowd timing his matches I don't think we're gonna get much more.

I feel like they could get some mileage out of a Baron Corbin/Bull Dempsey tag team, but Corbin isn't broke yet, even if he's nothing spectacular.

I'm enjoying the Kevin Owens hype videos. I hope he actually wrestles at Takeover R-Evolution.

Baron Corbin taking the whole silent monster gimmick to an interesting level thanks to the audience keeping count of match time.

Did Balor say something along the lines of "bringing something you've never seen before"? Will we be seeing the debut of his painted warrior gimmick?

^ Totally called it!
So anyway is it just me or did Enzo botch that ending of the tag team match this week? It seemed everyone was surprised he didn't kick out. |
