He certainly seems to have it. He can move in and out of relevance and fans overwhelming continue to be excited about him. He almost seems like a guy that they won't be able to screw up if they tried.

Awesome match between Jeff Hardy, AJ Styles and Rollins, except the finish.
They really hate clean finishes at WWE. Shame.

It's unbelievably annoying. Which is why when I DVR RAW or SD, I immediately fast forward through the matches until the end because they hardly result in any payoff. The KO-Aleister match last night was an exception to the norm for how they usually have matches end on TV.

The Bray-Alexa pairing is fun. I really hope they don't find a way to botch that.

Would've preferred DQ finishes for Retribution. Also, Ali's promo is borderline tweener

Cool to see the Fiend and the Hurt Business stare down though

WWE has the best roster (inlcuding SD/NXT etc.) but we get such a crap every week.

Apparently Matt Riddle is no more and now simply “Riddle”

Goes without saying but Vince McMahon is a bizarrely insane human being.

So they broke up Heavy Machinery for this?

Just another tag team that'll be out of the WWE after this year's WrestleMania. Unreal how dumb they are when it comes to breaking up tag teams.

If there's one thing I've learned about WWE as a wrestling fan for most of my juvenile to adult life, it's that they can always do worse.

He gets a brand new look and then loses his first match in about a minute to Ricochet. :noway: I think he's got untapped potential. Hopefully they eventually find a way to use him that gives him a fair chance at success. Until then, it looks like he's strictly enhancement talent.
