So there could be arguably the worst put together PPV tonight, yeah, TONIGHT. Re-matches from Blood Money of matches I don't care about (and neither do viewers by looking at the ratings). There's 2 (maybe 3) matches I care about on this card and that's being incredibly generous. Could Brock slum it & show up in Tacoma Washington? If so he could cash in on someone, probably Kofi, but I think he'll do that closer to the move to FOX. Does Bray show up and start a feud with someone? He needs to soon.
Universal Title Special Referee: We have no idea yet & I assume neither do they Seth Rollins vs Baron Corbin (seriously)
WWE Title - Steel Cage Match Kofi Kingston vs Dolph Ziggler
United States Title Samoa Joe vs Ricochet
SD Women's Title Bayley vs Alexa Bliss
RAW Women's Title Becky Lynch vs Lacey Evans
Roman Reigns vs Drew McIntyre
SD Tag Team Titles Rowan & Daniel Bryan vs Heavy Machinery
CW Title Tony Nese vs Drew Gulak vs Akira Tozawa
Big E & Xavier Woods vs Sami Zayn & Kevin Owens
My picks.... Rollins Kofi Joe Becky Bayley (maybe a screwy finish) Roman Rowan & Bryan Drew Gulak (just so a new champ can be crowned) Zayn & Owens
I might be here, but I highly doubt it. Just figured this should have a thread for anyone interested.

Gulak with the torture rack neckbreaker on Tozawa for the win and the title!

Wow that match ruled.
Gulak wins the title, but doesn't pin the champ. Really dug that.

For fuck sake you show Gulak celebrating his win for like 5 seconds before cutting back to the pre-show panel and running down the card again???
C'mon, show the guy celebrating.

Just bring back King of the Ring; it actually fits the "sport" aspect that wrestling is trending towards. Get rid of the Extreme Rules name if it's going to stay a PG product.

How are the 205 Live guys expected to be taken seriously when they're saddled on the pre-show every PPV? It's their own fucking Network, they don't have to be on the pre-show!!
I'm tapping out on this show already (will check out Ricochet vs Joe later), Becky vs Foghorn Evans is up first and I just don't care.
Have a good one folks.

There's a Watch-Along on YouTube right now with Cathy Kelley, Dana Brooke (both looking GOODT), Booker T, Anderson & Gallows and Otunga (who isn't talking).
This is so much more enjoyable. The ladies & Book are just eating sushi. Good Brothers are making subtle dirty jokes, Booker has already talked about PAC vs Ricochet earlier.
I'm not watching the actual show, but just watching people watch the PPV. Oddly this entertains me, don't judge.

Booker: I'm picking Samoa Joe Otunga: That's not what you said on the pre-show Booker: Well that's cause he was sitting next to me.
Ricochet also apparently slipped during his entrance flip & they've been poking fun at him at bit during this. Gallows said that's what happens when he tries "lucha....things". This is actually pretty funny.

Ricochet pins Joe clean after a 630
Gallows: Wow, strap a rocket to Ricochet! Anderson: Let us hold on for a second!
Shit, Gallows, Anderson, Booker & Dana all left after that match. This Watch Along was fun while it lasted.

Sugar Shane Helms on the watch along now.
This is great. Do they do this every PPV?

Does Roman get his shine back by defeating the 34-year-old prototype of a pro wrestler to make up for losing to Shane?

My God the watchalong is fantastic.
Hawkins and Ryder recording bumpers for their podcast.
Hurricane nailed it.
DVon called it the Major Wrestling Finger podcast.
It's amazing.

Drew should have a title by now. Put him on Smackdown if you are keeping the brand split and give him the WWE title.

This watch-a-long is pretty solid. I'm sticking to my belief Heavy Machinery could be big.

I have no idea how Kofi v Dolph has required a cage and I'm happy about it.

Sugar Shane Helms on the watch along now. This is great. Do they do this every PPV? Yeah they've done it for months. It's usually that Pat MacAfee guy who hosts though instead of Cathy. He's busy so she's a replacement.
She's so much better than he is, for pretty much every reason you can think of.
I've really liked the ones I've watched.

Cathy does have an earpiece in and she has to plug watching the show on the Network before every match, but aside from that, this is pretty much just regular people watching the show with no direction from brass.
Beats the shit out of commentary.

"Mojo has never played in the NFL. If you type in NFL.com and look up Mojo Rawley it'll say 0-0-0-0, he's a fraud!"
Ryder's continuing his burial of Mojo is hilarious
"I love Mojo, I hope that Luna Vachon gimmick works out."
