Anyone else wish they just did a normal takeover? War Games was fun last year but I'm not excited for it at all this time.

It is a normal takeover. It just has one War Games match.

Would it be considered irony that I missed the impromptu Riddle match because I was picking up some weed?

Hot crowd!

I love the dynamic the addition of PoS (Pals of Shayna) has given this feud.

Holy ****, that was a heart breaker. I'm legit upset about that finish.

Awesome match.

Only complaint I have about that is that it wasn't five minutes longer. Great match. Kairi and Shayna have amazing chemistry, and working with Kairi the past year has done wonders for Baszler. She's so much better now than she was in their MYC finals match (where she was solid but got gassed super early).

Agreed. Could have used another 5 minutes. No reason a finish had to come so soon after the interference.

Johnny is a way better heel than I thought he'd be. What a **** head.

Gargano's heel offense is awesome, as is his Punisher ring gear.

Johnny Gargano is the best wrestler in the world.

These two are very similar stylistically, but differ enough to make this an interesting mix.

Looks like Black has been putting in major work on his upper body since his debut, that's awesome.
