That's fine, Eddie Guerrero also cruised by saying cursing words in Spanish back in the day

Reminds me of how Hogan got that long standing ovation in Montreal 21 years ago.

WOW, EC was fire. I think in 5+ years from now, this bloodline story maybe fully unanimous as the best storyline of all time. It has topped the Mega Powers, Hogan/Andre, NWO and Austin/Mcmahon for me. Great writing and so many layers.

She gets it.

And I'm still sad and mad that we lost Hana.

From what I've read, Sasha Banks was Hana's favorite wrestler. I think her mom thanked Mercerdes in a tweet.

Jey Uso is feeling like Sting. We don't know what side he's on and is coming from making his way from the crowd. The tag titles match has to headline night 1 of WrestleMania. The emotional investment is too great

Vince gotta be shadow booking RAW. No way we gettin Brock/Omos and Bray returning to the fun house gimmick with no explanation unless he's involved. I'd hate for WWE to become watchable just for the old man to ruin it again

Bray brought back the fun house in his with feud with LA knight. The fun house came back when he finally gave in to his demons again.

Fuck. I think i did miss one segment in that feud, guess im wrong on that part

Brock/Omos definitely seems Vince-ey tho. Not that im opposed to the match, it just should be on Crown Jewel or some lesser PPV

Lantis · February 28

I guess they just wanted for Brock to have his WM paycheck without messing with any of the ongoing storylines. If this were Vince booking we would probably have seen Brock vs. Roman for like the bajillionth time LOL

They could have had the Lashley and Brock blow off at WrestleMania. Ending it on a indecisive finish sucks balls

Lantis · February 28

Yeah I was hoping for Brock and Lashley to have their final match @ WM too, but I guess that would have left Bray without much to do.

I think the point here is I don't really wanna see Omos in anything. Just make him a comedy character already (like they always do with all their monster characters)

Thats wild how AEW can have a shit build then churn out an awesome PPV show. Shit needs to be studied lol

Lantis · March 6

I think it speaks more to the talent involved than incompetent booking TBH

TK should just let shit happen instead of trying to build piss poor storylines

scorp · March 6

Was such a good show.

MJF eating pickles at the scrum was my highlight of the night.

True. We you have guys they can put on MOTY contenders with ease, it can kind of bypass poor booking. WWE can learn from that, sometimes you just gotta let them go out there and put on bangers when the storylines arent quite clicking, atleast keep the action strong

Jion_Wansu · March 8

LOL, USA allowed the "Fuck You Logan" chants on live TV when the crowd chanted that at Logan Paul. The Bloodline story; the plot thickens...

WWE has done that. Remember how fucking awful the build to Bianca vs Sasha Banks was for WrestleMania 37? Somehow they got the main-event and had the best match of the night.
