Shawn Michaels was the architect behind the NXT ladder match too, Haitch got some great talent down there

But got Road Dogg all up on SmackDown Live

We really need to stop giving a flying fukk about Dave's ratings brehs.

Takeover was amazing, no doubt about it and if anything tops Gargano vs Ciampa then 2018 might be a GOAT wrestling year contender. But this dude also gave Ospray vs Scrull 5 snowflakes, them shyt mean less than a Davey Richards and Seth Rollins superplex combined

Giving out a fourth or half a star feels so needlessly pedantic and petty.

 

[Brad Piff]

Ronda match should've been at least 4.5

 

[Amirah Dyme's Husband]

Ronda match should've been at least 4.5

Nah Charlotte vs Asuka should have.

Ronda match should've been at least 4.5

This. It was perfect "entertainment" on the big stage. Other than that I don't disagree with too much. I.C. title was underrated too.

He had to give the two NXT matches 5 stars, there's just no way they weren't.
