Strowman heaving Reigns off the stage into the side of the ambulance looked pretty good, even in slow motion.

Bet Reigns is gonna win that match at the ppv with all the times Strowman has had the better of him

99% guaranteed.  And if that 1% chance of Strowman winning actually happens then you know Reigns will destroy him in a higher profile PPV.  Reigns is still Vince's pet project so anybody in a program with Reigns is going to eventually lose and lose big.

It's sort of a shame because if you objectively watch Reigns he's actually improved a bit.  His mic skills still suck but they're better than they were and his in-ring action seems better too; at least he sells a bit now, but I still think the "Superman Punch" is the dumbest finisher since the Hogan leg drop. If Vince didn't keep shoving Reigns down the WWE Universe's throats I don't think he'd be nearly as hated as he is.  Just handle the guy like the player he is; an upper mid-card wrestler; he shouldn't be main-eventing all the time.

Roman's superman punch wouldn't be so bad if he didn't "jack off" his arm ahead of time.

Just a rumor but this shows you guys are near 100% correct:

Man, if Sasha Banks is ever going back to playing a heel please let it be tonight on RAW!!!

Switched over to RAW because the Cardinals are up 11-0 over the Marlins after three innings. Even our bullpen shouldn't be able to screw that up.

Watching Hulu version of Smackdown. Looks like the rap battle is going to be as stupid as I thought it was going to be. Maybe you have to be a rap fan for this not to look so stupid.

I wonder if I can sue WWE for the death of my brain cells after going through this?

The Cardinals played a day game today (and won thankfully) so I dug out my "Mick Foley's Greatest Hits and Misses" disc set. Currently watching Foley as Cactus Jack vs Chris Candido from Smokey Mountain Wrestling circa 1994. Jim Ross is doing commentary. Unless the WWE people dubbed the commentary in (which I really doubt) I didn't realize Ross did commentary for any wrestling organizations other than WCW and WWE.

And WWE continues to prove it just doesn't know how to use talent:

He might of asked for his release. When he tweeted after the release he appeared quite relieved.

AJ Styles beat Kevin Owens at an MSG live event last night to become the new US Champion. A rare non-televised title change.

Yes, Aries did not want to be a cruiserweight. He had the same issue in TNA and didn't want to be stuck in the X Division there.

Ross's contract expired on February 11, 1994, and the WWF chose not to renew it; two weeks later he suffered his first attack of Bell's palsy. He subsequently became an announcer for Smoky Mountain Wrestling and the NFL's Atlanta Falcons (the second time he was with the Falcons as an announcer). In Smoky Mountain Wrestling, Ross was reunited with former NWA/WCW announcer Bob Caudle. The promotion was owned by longtime NWA Manager Jim Cornette and featured many former NWA/WCW wrestlers such as The Rock 'n' Roll Express, Eddie Gilbert, and "Dr. Death" Steve Williams

Anyone really thought Neville was going to lose the belt?

Oh I forgot. Also in the free for all someone said, "I wouldn't want to face Bray Wyatt." I figured why not? It's pretty much a guaranteed PPV win for his opponent.

Well paint my bottom blue and call me Avatar, Bray won.

Looks like tall and lanky vs. small and annoying is coming up next.

Expected more of a squash, but tall and lanky still wins.

Now is the 30 minute iron man tag match between the Hardy's and Seamus/Ceasaro.

First fall in just one minute after Seamus was set to start for his team followed by a run by by Ceasaro allowing Jeff to be distracted and took a bro kick. Good tag team maneuver!

Time to send Enzo Lou Who to "Whoville" (aka the cruiserweights).

Ceasaro and Seamus keep the titles.

Woohoo! I hate The Hardys.
