Pretty surprising Roderick Strong beat Hideo Itami. Hope they give Strong a huge push, always been a huge fan of the guy.

Yeah I'm a big fan of Strong as well. I was in the crowd the night he won the ROH World title from Tyler Seth Rollins Black in New York City. Would be pretty crazy to once again be in the crowd when he wins the WWE Cruiserweight Title. Who does everybody see winning this 205 live tourney?

• The terrible text graphics and mobile phone promos are still kicking around on SmackDown too I see.
Awful. Just awful. • So last week Daniel Bryan said we would have a Top 10 List next week but he didn't say why and this week, we got that Top 10 List and still no mention of why we're getting a Top 10 List and what purpose it serves to anyone. • Seriously, has someone in the back just discovered Adobe After Effects? This sudden constant usage of on-screen graphics is just both crazy and annoying. • Good US Title match. I was surprised that Orton got involved but I guess that's one way of saying "Hey everyone, Randy Orton is still here!". So Orton is now in the title picture and as for Rusev, I think he may still be involved too, which will probably lead to a Triple Threat Match for the title at WrestleMania once Orton gets a shot at Fastlane. • As I've said before, the graphics are stupid but so is having the wrestlers say "Next!" after their promo. Especially when right after they say it, the play-by-play commentator says that they're next. • Why is Ziggler returning to randomly face Corbin? Shouldn't he be trying to claim back the US Title? Ziggler really should just leave now. It would be the best thing he's ever done. |

WWE had a match graphic and quick announcement about it being one of next week's matches.

I continue to think that's part of Ziggler's angle. His entire gimmick is that nobody gives a shit about him.

Hope people chant "Please retire" when he comes out next week.
Not that I want him retired I just want him to work else where. |

Kind of funny Shane took note of the Rusev Day chants when talking about the same superstars(KO & Sami) receiving opportunities then gives Ziggler and Corbin a shot. Ziggler just needs to go now.

Nope.
Really feels WWE no longer has any idea of what to do with Ziggy and just tossing things to see if anything sticks for him. His "make fun of gimmicks" shtick was a bust but something WWE wanted to continue as an idea (Gable & Benjamin). His walkout as US champ was also a bust and didn't come close at all to invoking a CM Punk-like feel. Him being a surprise entrant at the Rumble was another bust. Now they are trying a surprise title shot contender which is going to bust if he wins and likely just be him eating the pin at Fastlane. |

WWE has a habit of starting an "intriguing" story while clearly having no clue where they're going with it and ending up not coming up with anything. Knowing where you're going when you start a story and not just ending it abruptly should be like... rule #1 in any form of storytelling. How the fuck are these guys getting paid as professional writers?

Don't get me wrong, the writing sucks. But there's got to be some fault on Ziggler for just going out and doing this shit and not asking "okay what is all of this leading to?"

How do we know he didn't? I don't think they'd suddenly come up with a genius endgame just because a wrestler stated the obvious writing flaw.
I'm sure most of the guys wish their character was booked less haphazardly but since that doesn't seem to be a realistic goal these days, you can't blame them for just going to work and collecting a paycheck. |

Had a dream where the Universal Title somehow became vacant and they did a mini Royal Rumble with dudes who didn't work at WWE anymore as a "second chance".
Cody Rhodes was there as "disfigured". John Morrison came out too..... bunch of other people I don't remember In the end, Dolph Ziggler came out and won the title. Then he immediately quit and vacated it. |

Akira Tozawa's Vince McMahon impersonation might be my favourite gimmick in all of WWE.
