I couldn't do it live properly in the end... caught the start, the American Alpha match was fukking EVERYTHING, but I had to get up for work on Saturday morning so I missed the rest live. Have now watched almost every match twice... this was a HELL OF A fukkING PPV BREHS.
Revival/AA : CLINIC. Tag team season approachin'. Clear the fukking schedules. Revival cheat like REAL heels. Jason Jordan is king of this hot tag shyt. AA get the straps and it's GOOOOOOOD. Please let them feud into the main brand for the foreseeable future.
Corbin/Aries : Easily the most average match on the but still a solid 3* probably. Corbin looked great. I'm not convinced about Aries (not seen his pre-WWE work) and I was a bit pissed that he went over Cena style after Corbin had been ragdolling him all match. Corbin is another true heel.
Zayn/Shinsuke : I always felt I was late to the Zayn party... never really connected. Never seen Shinsuke outside of the odd clip. This has convinced me that both of them are probably in the top twenty wrestlers I've ever seen. Shinsuke has swag pouring out his fukking eyeballs. Both of them are entirely about telling stories. This wasn't just a match of the year candidate. It's a match of the company candidate. If a title's on the line and it was on the main show, this goes down in history like Savage/Steamboat.
Bayley/Asuka : Basically fukk the Network for deciding to SKIP FORWARD ON ITS fukkING OWN during the Corbin/Aries match and cut straight to a clip of Bayley in tears and Asuka's music playing. I pressed my Playstation button so fast I almost managed to convince myself that Bayley was holding the belt, so I was expecting Asuka to win by Countout or DQ. Great ending to a great match in the end. I can empathise with the crowd. We all think Asuka's what's best for business, but Bayley... come on... she's the only person making us all believe in a babyface right now. Of course it had to be a muted response to the finish. Asuka will get her welcome at Full Sail.
Finn/Joe : Awful ending aside a solid match and main event. Stiff as all hell and whether the blood stoppages were planned or not, I thought they gave it an air of a legitimate sanctioned fight. You're never gonna get a better rebel shot of a wrestler than Joe smiling at "LET JOE BLEED" chants though. Amazing. Dude is legitimately terrifying.
I don't give a shyt that Apollo/Drifter didn't make the broadcast. The girls should've had next on any spare time anyway.
Amazing show. fukk anyone that tells you otherwise.
