So was the Fozzy tour actually a work?
Well I’ll be. Even without the Broken gimmick, the Hardyz steal the show.
Woot! This is how they get Broken! DELETE DELETE DELETE!
The ring announcer shouldn’t be bigger than the wrestler.
Woo Hoo WTG Alexa!
I love watching her facial expressions. She sneers, taunts, mock cries, and is especially good at the shit-eating grins.
Alexa is great at all that, but she really needs to be about 4" taller; Sasha Banks too.
Uninteresting start to the Wyatt/Orton match.
Good thing they found a haunted house in San Jose that was so close the venue.
They forgot to account for the cameraman’s shadow a couple of times.
That didn’t work for me. Points for trying something different, but far more points against for what they tried and the execution.
Hee hee, crowd shouting YOU DESERVE IT to Roman after his harrowing defeat.
Not enough blood capsules can get him any face heat.
One guy was saying how much they loved Roman. 
They could have had the limo driver turn out to be Orton. That would have been more slasher movie chic. The aborted baby shrine would have been more shocking if Bray had actually mentioned something about lost children in his promos, but it was a random thing they threw in when they had to stick to PG 13 level horror memes. Couldn’t they have at least had Sister Abigail in hologram form? Even though the horror vibe was anemic, Mahal and the Bollywoods’ run-in just looked silly.
Decent show otherwise. I liked the way they brought back the “made it by a finger” move from WM in the KO/Jericho match and had Jericho stamp it out. Everybody expected Jericho to job this one with the alleged Fozzy tour, but maybe they’ll have KO “injure” him in retaliation this Tuesday.
Strowman/Roman was well done. I love the way they book Strowman as the nightmare that won’t go away. Roman looked like he was fighting with his last dying breath, fueled purely by hate. I have no reason to consider Roman undeserving of his push anymore, and Strowman no longer looks green.
Sheamus broke Jeff Hardy’s tooth
The House of Horrors match was hilariously bad. Just beyond the pale bad.
They also forgot to take into account:
(a) the fact that when they cut from one camera angle to another, the second cameraman mysteriously disappeared from the vicinity, and
(b) somehow, the limo got from somewhere where it was in total darkness outside to SAP Arena, where the sun hadn’t set yet when it arrived, in about 30 minutes.
Oh, and Hornswoggle did it. That is still the answer to, “Who (did something that they never did mention who did it, like ‘raised the briefcase at some MITB match’ or ‘drove RKO to the arena’ - it stems from his being the RAW Anonymous GM),” isn’t it?
Billy Corgan is buying the National Wrestling Alliance. I don’t know whether to laugh, cry or be excited.
Does anyone know who is under the Sin Cara mask now? That was the biggest, pudgiest Sin Cara facing off against Ziggler than any other I can remember. Or haven’t I been paying attention?
Same guy I think. Just too much time hanging out in catering.
All 3 at once. Which is pretty much the default reaction to anything involving Billy Corgan.
I’m a little ambivalent about how SD has been going lately.
AJ Styles vs KO will be a good feud, but why would AJ want to go after the US and not the World Title? Maybe the byline was too good to pass up: The Face that Runs the Place vs the Face of America.
Jinder Mahal is “pretty good,” but not World title contender level. It’s obvious he’s for drawing in the India market, but he was in wrestler limbo until they brought him back to pad out the RAM mid card after the draft. His finisher looks like the kind of move that normally gets kicked out of, and the Singh brothers look like bath house bitches. I would overtly wonder what happened to his feud with Mojo, but considering it would just involve more of Mojo running around and knocking shit over while they milk his tie to Rob Gronkowski, I would wonder no longer.
I suppose Aiden English is projecting his stage actor sideline as an angle, but I’ve watched this shit long enough to know that crying gimmicks always result in career deaths.
On the other hand, the Fashion Police/Law & Order segment was pretty funny, especially with Breeze calling the Usos “The Uggos.” Like Jinder, they’ve been cellar dwellers, but I think they would do better in the limelight. Maybe.
Read where AJ Lee talked about an angle she almost had with Dean Ambrose, before he got called up. She was going to be absent for a few weeks because she was sent to the nuthouse. There, she would meet Dean, a Bonnie & Clyde romance would develop, and the two would return to wreak havoc.
If that had happened, there would have been no SHIELD, and AJ might not have hooked up with CM Punk. Still, it could probably have gone over big time.
