Welp, Jericho made up for jobbing to Fandango finally. ---

Ok, wouldn’t have thrown that joke if I knew Zach was a cancer survivor. He’s in a relationship with Emma, so I guess things are really looking good for him now, eh? ---

The New Day just emerged from a giant box of Booty-Os in Super Saiyan gear. All is right in the world. ---

Zack worked long and hard to get a Mania moment, and he still only had one because there were so many injuries. I’m glad he got a payoff for his efforts, I’ll be surprised if he ever reaches this height again in the ring. Jericho looks legit hurt. ---

Wow. I didn’t know Ryder was a cancer survivor, either. Okay then. ---

And now we get an ending that ensures that _nobody_ gets over except a bunch of 50-plus retirees who are never going to wrestle again. That was worth making the tag champions and the #1 contenders all look like chumps. ---

Funny thing is, I marked more for the retirees than I did the previous match. NXT Takeover spoiled me. ---

**Smapti,** I don’t have the Network. Explanation, please? ---

> [@ekedolphin](#): > > **Smapti,** I don’t have the Network. Explanation, please? League of Nations wins the non-title match over the New Day. Wade Barrett cuts a promo about how no group of three men out there can beat them. Shawn Michaels, Mick Foley, and Steve Austin enter and deliver a one-sided beatdown. New Day gets back in the ring and tries to celebrate with them. Austin stunners Xavier and then the three of them stand around drinking beer while their theme music plays. ---

Fuck me, really?! Get back into wrestling or go the hell home. ---

And Brock wins a mostly one-sided match. Because heaven forbid we put over anyone whose WWE career started in _this_ decade. ---

No blading, perfectly PG family friendly street fight. Samoa Joe and Nakamura are laughing. ---

Lesnar and Ambrose was the match that held the most potential. Not so much actual in the end though. Stone Cold and Michaels are Texans, and Cactus a fan favorite there. Vince couldn’t resist a cheap applause. ---

Whoa, Vader inducted Stan Hansen into HoF? You almost cost me an eye, Stan. Now you really owe me. ---

If Sasha doesn’t win after this intro, we riot. ---

I’m just going to say it. Charlotte Sasha and Becky have already stole the show. ---

Charlotte wins. Boo. Who booked this nonsense? ---

They put on a great show. Charlotte is the weakest of the three but she has the best gimmick. I’ll give all three of them credit for putting it all out there. ---

I thought this was supposed to be the last match? Guess they didn’t want a lot of early departers. ---
