Excellent news.
Helps the story that she's ducking Becky Lynch.

They were never gonna do Becky v Charlotte at WM36 anyway. Way way way too many matches have happened now that has beat the luster out of the match.

What does make me laugh is that Charlotte gets the hotter opponent while Becky gets the damaged goods opponent. Never change, WWE.

when the legends return and it's done correctly you completely understand why they are legends to begin with.

Orton has been great the last couple of weeks/months.


That's good. It also helps Edge that he's probably one of the safest workers in the company.


Orton changed it up to an old school 'con-chair-to'

Comes out, starts to do a nice heel promo. But no, Asuka has to come out and heel it up and cheat in the match.

So what was the point of the wasted heel promo by Charlotte?

Personally, I love it when they change up occasionally and go with a heel vs heel match. You can do that with the greats in the business. And everything is set up well for Charlotte going forward. They're probably going to build up the potential great match-up with Ripley, and then they're probably going to make a big deal of her ducking Becky.

Becky has officially jumped the shark. Who TF told her dressing like a meme was a good idea?

A dead meme.

Honestly, I saw it on Twitter assumed that wwe photoshopped those glasses on her as a goof.

Maybe Natalya can bring back the plastic ears and play her off as Keyboard Cat next.

Geebus, I take it WWE no longer has a no blood policy - even if it was fake blood. That was pretty much disgraceful - and takes away from the great match Asuka and Becky Lynch just had. Why do something like that with talented wrestlers?

I was really annoyed with Rollins saying KO is on his own.
They've promoted the 8 man tag team match the whole week...

I like the way they've introduced Garza. Hopefully he's not the next three to four week push project (Cedric Alexander, Carillo, ...).

The Matt Hardy - Orton segment was a nice trip to memory lane. I remember the brutal Hardy-Edge feud.
I like Orton in this role, it's the perfect fit.

Black and Drews' finisher are hugely over and I pop every time they use it. Why MVP came back is a riddle to me, jobbing to Rey and Drew.

I love Baszler and the feud with Becky is the right way to go, but I feel they should've waited until next week.

Unsure what MVPs role is going to be but the way he pushed Drew in that segment was perfectly executed. This build for the next top face is really going well. Hopefully they won't screw this up.

MVP is probably going to be an "advocate". I think he's done as a regular in-ring performer - he even basically said as much in the segment with Drew. He did nothing athletic in his match with Rey. But he's a great talker.

Asuka with in ring mic time is a winner.
