The Entrances alone have been way more entertaining than the Super Bore

Matches are so much fun when they're fast paced instead of a slow build trying to tell a story

HBK is a better color guy than Nigel, Saxton and Percy

Eh story telling matches have there place every bit as much as a match like this...Time and Place though..for a one off? 6 man tag match this was perfection! Great action from beginning to end.

I really like post-retirement HBK. He's the total opposite of 97 HBK.

Exactly. A card should have a variety of the two.

Yeah, gotta read your crowd. Couldn't work a slow paced match in a situation like this or you'd kill the crowd.

I honestly don't understand why we hope guys we like get called up any more when it's basically a death sentence for 90% of them.

Dream hasn't even held the title yet. I'd give him a run first. Let Ciampa and Gargano hit the main roster first.

I'd be interested to see the Network numbers. That's where I watched it.

We'll probably never get those, though.
