Well, that was a fun 8-man. Lotsa laugh moments. Kallisto almost stole the match all by himself.

Dolph kicked Rusev so hard, he knocked over the announcers’ Diet Mountain Dew props. Good thing the caps were still, on so the product they’re indirectly hawking doesn’t spill out.

Lame finish, but apparently it’s going to lead to a mixed tag match at the next PPV.

I am impressed with Rusev’s agility. Must have been taking Cannonball lessons from KO.

Time for Stephen Arquette.

Mad props to Steven Amell!

Could he work on his selling ability? Oh yeah. But did he take some bumps and do some good moves on his own? Hell yeah he did!

Good job Amell!

Meh.

He took a lot more bumps than I was expecting, but it was pretty obvious that Barrett and Stardust were working _really_ slow when he was in the ring.

Props to Amell for working a good long part of the match. Could have been a lot worse. Neville was the star of the match anyway.

He did more than his fair share of the workload and looked good doing it

I normally hate Triple Threat matches, but that one had some humorous moments. Lame ending. Wonder if Ryback was still hurting? He gave BS more of a Samoan Drop than a Shellshock, and seemed to be sucking wind a little.

Bray has horns now. Apparently he’s leveled up from Redneck to Viking.

He did okay for a celebrity guest wrestler. That’s about the limit of it.

What the \*\*\*fuck \*\*\*is the deal with Reigns goldbricking for 20 minutes during an otherwise amazing match? Ambrose worked his ass off, Harper worked his ass off, Bray worked his ass off, and Mr. “Feel Sorry For Me, I’m Invincible” sleeps ringside because he what, got kicked in the head? The audience was starting to get over his mollycoddling before, and now he totally blows it. Superman Punch 15 times and a Spear that ANYBODY can do, and he’s back to being Vince’s Golden Child again. The first 5 minutes of the match was fucking awesome, with amazing timing, and he sucks the life out of it by acting like pudding and then all the sudden Hulks up. FUCK YOU REIGNS! FUCK YOUR INBRED SAMOAN KISSY ASSED DUCK FACE!!!

Dick.

Notice how Jerry Lawler is completely silent while Cole and JBL talk about how _nobody anywhere ever_ has held more titles than Ric Flair.

Mother of Og Cena, drop the Springboard Stunner already. You STILL can’t do it right!

Well, that made no goddamn sense.

Did WWE rehire Russo while we were distracted by Finn Balor?

So apparently the MSG house show on October 3rd is going to air live on the Network.

Neat.

Jesus Crap, what’s with all the stupid finishes tonight?

Is Jon Stewart so bored after leaving Daily Show he wants to be a heel manager?

He didn’t even do the fake out right. This has pushed me to unimagined heights of ambivalence. It both makes me happy and sucks donkey jizzum.
