Can't wait for the first ever Irondick Match.
Every time you hit a lowblow on your opponent, you score a point. Most points after 60 minutes wins. |

I love that flying kick then Nakamura does if too many people start getting in knee finisher that should be his finisher

Styles and Bryan incorporated the finish of Styles/Nakamura I (in WWE) into their SmackDown match, which had to be on purpose. I'm getting over all the ball-hitting I'm hearing about (thought it was great at Mania and on SmackDown after that, but I think that should have been it -- doesn't need to be the dude's gimmick), but from what I saw, these dudes clearly know what they are doing 100%. I'm not super-enthused, because the product has me down, but it wouldn't surprise me if Money in the Bank is a great match. But it also wouldn't surprise me if it is actually, legitimately, a "Balls of Iron" Match, where the winner is the one to hit the opponent in the balls the most over a 30-minute period or something. |

at the fake low blow spot.
Kind of Nakamura to spare Styles' balls from punishment this week. |

Great heel move by Nakamura to steal a win. Decisive finish, but not clean enough to "end" the feud.
Really wish they would have done this in the last two matches rather than doing the double loss/no winner finishes. If you don't want to give Shinsuke the win, have him get caught cheating and worm his way into a rematch or something--or, you know, don't book a match you can't book an end to. |

Really enjoyed that match, but unsure why they would give it away for free

I hate the phony non-finish spots. Just don't book them against each other for a little while. AJ Styles could have wrestled someone else in Saudi Arabia and Backlash if you are desperate to get this thing to Money in the Bank. Nakamura could have lost and just been a generally nasty piece of shit and gotten Styles to want the match, so he can die by his own sword sort of thing. You don't need to have them drawing and getting non-title wins over each other all the time.

Over the course of last year, they did have Nakamura beat Cena and Orton on television and what have you, but I think the reasoning behind this match is to hook those people who just aren't seeing Styles vs. Nakamura on the Network to try and get them to get it. I don't know why this would budge that statistic, but I think that's the reasoning. It's not like they actually sell their shows as PPVs anymore. You just need the Network and most of the time you can get that for free or close to it, so what are they really losing out on? |

Had Nakamura lost or had another screwy finish, then WWE would need to do some real work to extend the feud. Instead they took their patented lazy way to do so. |

Roshambo Last Man Standing Match for the WWE Championship. Ten count only after a low blow.

I can see them doing 2/3 Falls, honestly. If I'm making an honest prediction.

2/3 falls could work..... they work a long ass match, Nakamura lands a DQ to get intentionally disqualified, but it leads to a Kinshasa to tie it up, then another to win the title.... or Styles ducks the second and hits a small package to steal the third fall....

The version I watched had this segment where Paige announced a Miz vs Jeff Hardy US Title match for the night (it was after the segment with Carmella and the interview with Nakamura, and the video packages after that.
I guess it was a segment for the Dark Main Event that they forgot to edit out. |

• I've yet to see a heel promo from Big Cass where he doesn't put on a cartoony voice.
• What was that camera work all about? Seriously, what is this? I'm really expecting someone to make a looping gif of that. I was going to do it myself but I really can't be arsed right now, if I'm honest. • So with New Day winning, I'm guessing that this is the beginning of the end of The New Day? If the rumours are true, then we can all assume that Big E will be chosen to be in the MITB Ladder Match. • As a person who doesn't watch NXT, this is my introduction to Mr. Andrade "Cien" Almas and also Zelina Vega. My first impressions are that he seems alright, I guess. You don't really get to see much when facing a jobber. I am however curious as to why he has "Cien" in his name. Checking it out on Google, I see that "Cien" is Spanish for "Hundred" or "One Hundred", so his name in English is "Andrade "Hundred/One Hundred" Almas". Why "Hundred/One Hundred" and where does this come into play for Almas? Is it like Tye Dillinger's "Perfect 10", in that it's suppose to represent how good he is but now, thanks to how the WWE works, it means absolutely nothing and it's just a flashy and catchy nickname these days? Also, who trains the women to do promos at the Performance Center? Because whoever it is, they really need to either get better at it or just go because when Zelina Vega took to the mic, she sounded pretty much exactly like the majority of the female roster. I mentioned this before back in December: Quote:
I can see Lana losing and either blaming English for her loss or her losing can be attributed to English in some way. Something like he distracts her accidentally or something stupid. Either way, Lana's loss will be another step into the disbandment of the team of Rusev & English. • Do American's really think us Brits adore the Royal Family? I'm sure some do, but I think the majority of Brits are cool with the family. They're just "there", but we wouldn't really care if they weren't either. We're "meh" towards them. Watching the "'Mellabration", Carmella's shots and references at The Royal Family were just a bit lame and obviously, nobody cared, because most Brits don't love or hate The Royal Family. Also, I'm sure that town crier was Welsh. • I was going to ask where this Miz/Hardy US Title match was that Paige announced, but judging by the camera work and the lack of any reaction from the announce table, I can only assume that it was Paige announcing the dark match and the editing monkeys forgot to edit it out or just couldn't be bothered. • I'm still really digging Mandy Rose's theme. It's just so chilled. As for Deville's theme, I dunno. It sounds like production music for a news programme. You can also tell she's not really done much in her career when one of her "facts/information notes" on her nameplate graphic is that she lives with Mandy Rose. Also, my reaction to her mini rave in the ring was the same as this guy in the crowd wearing the Rusev Day T-Shirt: • I kept hearing the referee tell AJ and Nakamura how much time they had left during their match. Just after the pin when Styles hits the Styles Suplex Special on Nakamura, the referee walks over to them and says "Six", and then near the end just after the pin when Nakamura hits Styles with a Kinshasa, the referee says "One Forty-five, you gotta set it up". |

Money. They're very good for tourism so I'm assuming that's one of the reasons. On a more serious note however, The Royal Family are also good influential roles on the world stage for The United Kingdom when it comes to certain areas. Prince Charles has his nature and so on and Prince's William and Harry have mental health as their main thing but they can also reach a lot of young people and that's something the rest of The Royal Family really can't do. The Royal Family can get through to people that our Prime Ministers can't. The Queen has a lost of respect around the world and she's a very influential figure. We also respect The Queen ourself and see her as this dear sweet old lady. I think once she's not around anymore, views here about The Royal Family will change, as I'm sure it will around The Commonwealth. Even Australia has played with the idea of dropping The Royal Family and becoming a republic after The Queen's not here anymore. Nobody really cares that much about Prince Charles really, but a lot of people do really like Prince's William and Harry, so for some nations of The Commonwealth, it'll be a case of "Do we soldier on through Charles' reign as we know the good times are ahead with William (and Harry), or do we use The Queen's passing as a starting point for a new beginning for our country?". |
