any of you watch talking smack? corbin has been great on the mic on there every time i've seen him and is worth checking out if you haven't been sold on him as a talker on the main shows. just watch yesterdays segment if you can. he has a great line on there, too - 'i don't need abs to punch a guy in the face'. he seems much more confident unscripted.

i'm with numbers on yesterday's show, pretty solid. the camera work on the aj/nakamura staredown, where aj just seemed to materialize out of nowhere to start the spot, was great. i, too, would have preferred the women's mitb match ending to occur after they've already had a couple, but since that's the way they chose to go, i still like the idea for the finish. lana/naomi was better than i thought it'd be considering lana's inexperience. low point for me was the deja vu of the orton/mahal finish. why go that route - basically repeating the finish of the last match - when you could have got to the same result in a different way? mahal's been fine since being anointed, and i hope this feud is done because i'd rather see him work with someone anyone else.
ah, copperplate, a font for the truly modern man.

If we are talking only about today I'd say probably Sheamus, I mean Reigns is the most egregious but it's not really him it's how he is presented.

I should preface that by saying that the stuff Sheamus is doing right now with Cesaro isn't bad but I've already cemented my opinion of him before that.

I actually enjoy his twitter account, he seems like a cool guy, but his in-ring work and history of injuring people is brutal.

Yeah, pretty much a fail on all sides. Poorly written, and poorly executed by the talent.

Goldust's heel turn on R-Truth was much better in all respects

This probably doesn't belong here, but it's semi-pro wrestling at its best. Lolz

It will be a shame if they ever have Asuka lose in NXT. No one there can touch her right now although I've enjoyed her work with Cross.

Also finally got around to seeing the Tyler Bate-Pete Dunne match from the last Takeover. Lived up to the hype for sure.

Not a fantastic PPV, but some decent entertainment. Felt the end to the main event was a bit sudden. The Strowman vs Reigns ending was really well done. The tag team match was my match of the day. Fantastic last two minutes. Wyatt/Rollins was boring.
