Glad Asuka is ok. Mandy rose still sucks out loud, but I saw the footage and no one is at fault. Simple botch.

I can't find the video, where did you see it at?

Fan footage on twitter. Asuka just mistimed a, um, idk what you'd call it. Like a forward facing sidewalk slam. Didn't get her hands down to brace for the face bump in time. Bashed her head on the mat

F*** YEAH SAMOA JOE

Great match btw (especially considering Rey is 44, R-Truth is 47 and they both look great). They need to do more fatal 4 ways.

Joe (c) vs Cena at WM?

A couple years ago I'd be all in for a Joe/Cena program. There's just no juice left in Joe in my eyes. Years of poor booking will do that. I honesty don't think there's a logical spot for Cena at Mania, but it appears they're going with Joe based on that post match promo.

Bryan looked like he's being waiting his whole life to sell that stunner.

I'm sure most of these guys grew up dreaming of what it would be like to eat one.

The injury angle for becky is dumb, end it, just do a straight forward feud you absolute idiots (Keep it simple stupid, every half decent promotion in the world adheres to this principle and that includes NXT, WWE could do the same).

I never thought i would say i wouldn't care about a Bryan vs Owens matchup but here we are.

Just get this Shane vs Miz feud started so we can have Miz murder Shane.

They better be doing that (though Joe has to go over since he's full time, also since Cena jobbed to a geriatric Undertaker).

The stunner really is the greatest wrestling move of all time.

That's a brutal blow for Ciampa just as soon as he was getting his big break on the main roster after all these years

Great promo Randy Orton. Pretty damn excited for Orton/Styles.

Not a bad back and forth between Orton/Styles.

Also loved the New Day coming in and destroying everyone during that tag match. That was great.

Great way to build Kofi's match at Mania. If this were Raw, they would have done a 10 minute promo segment.

I like seeing New Day dropping a bit of their comedic act in favor of being more serious.

Post 1000!

How the hell can Kofi overcome the odds though? Compelling storytelling finally. Vince is getting it now.
