Happening tonight.
Charlotte Flair (c) vs. Ronda Rousey "I Quit" match for the WWE SmackDown Women's Championship
Cody Rhodes vs. Seth Rollins
AJ Styles vs. Edge
Happy Corbin vs. Madcap Moss
Bobby Lashley vs. Omos (with MVP)
Drew Mcintyre and RK-Bro vs. The Bloodline
I don't know what will happen. Only that it will be forgettable.

I don't care about this show, but I'll be watching.
Rousey
Cody
AJ
Corbin
Omos
Drew & RK-Bro
There has to be a reason they scrapped all the unification talk in the main event. Adding Drew & Roman to it makes me think Drew gets a pin on Roman to make him a legit threat for Roman going forward. If he pins an Uso, who cares. If Roman pins Riddle, who cares. I think Drew gets the pin, because this match ultimately has zero stakes.
Rousey needs to win in order to not be a total joke
Cody shouldn't lose until he gets to Roman (or he beats him)
I don't care about Moss & Corbin. I could see Corbs stealing it if they continue the feud. If not, Moss wins and moves on.
Omos can't lose twice in a row, especially with his new heel manager. Lashley just has to take it on the chin. The match will suck.

Cody vs Rollins up first
I always question how they’ll fill a 3 hour “premium live event” with only 6 matches. Then I remember. 10-15 minute video packages before every fucking match.
I hate it so much.

Can a name have X-Pac heat?
If so Seth FREAKIN Rollins has it with me. Using FREAKIN as his middle name every time his name is mentioned is the worst.
Rollins is great. This douche canoe gimmick he has right now is fine, but the forced name is VINTAGE WWE.

About on the same level of their Mania match IMO. Really good opener. You know exactly what you’re getting when they wrestle.
Cody outsmarted the heel. Seth has a gripe for a rematch down the line.

"MVP interfering with his cane" is fun to hear on a wrestling show.

Omos had to win to maintain any credibility as a giant. I thought it was better than their Mania match but Omos is so limited. Credit MVP & Lashley making Omos look decent there.
I have absolutely no idea what they do with Omos now.

Priest & Edge’s little faction is named Judgment Day? Can’t we come up with something better? I dig they’re paired together. Why name them after an old PPV?
Can’t wait for Rollins & KO to announce their team as Great Balls of Fire

Kinda wish they’d throw Ciampa in with Edge & Priest.
That way Edge doesn’t have to always wrestle, can be the mouthpiece and Priest & Ciampa can do his bidding.

Charlotte said there are no rules in an I Quit match. Isn’t there one pretty specific rule?
I care more about Moss vs Corbin than this match.

The screaming from Charlotte.

Sorry, I thought that match kinda sucked
I liked their Mania match better, but just hated the finish of that one.

The fucking 45 year old who is standing by a kid, screamed at Cody and got his weight belt. And also tried to hug Ronda during her entrance. Then actually hugged her on her way back and had a marker ready for her to sign a poster.
Dude. It’s creeper levels sort of rivaling morons who try to take prom pics with Divas during meet & greets and the Divas look uncomfortable as hell.

Corbs & Moss are the bathroom match before the main event.
I didn’t care for Moss when he started out, but he’s improved immensely. Not sure what his ceiling is, but he could be solid if Vince doesn’t give up on him and he stays healthy. Which I realize are two major tasks.

Crowd was dead, but I enjoyed the action in Moss/Corbin. It was in the death spot, so they were screwed before they even went out. But the match itself was solid.
Charlotte's radius is "broken". So she gets a little breather before coming back to steal Money in the Bank I'm sure.
I miss Bayley.

Great fun match, but like, what was the point ultimately?
Would it have been so bad had the faces won their?
Fuck man.

Sounds like it was a decent show.
Unfortunately it won't mean anything because there's another one of these in a few weeks.

Wrestling wise, it was a solid show. Opener and main were great. AJ/Edge wasn’t as good as their Mania match but still good. I’m in the minority on Charlotte/Ronda in thinking it wasn’t that good. Omos/Lashley was fine. Corbs/Moss was solid.
It was a beefed up house show.
A premium live ev…hey, wait a second…

I'm an hour into the Cody Broken Skull Sessions. They haven't mentioned AEW yet. It's been more of a Timeline episode so far, which I know most are, but still.
I've just entered the Dashing One gimmick with the protective face gear. Still 45 min/hour left.

Last 30 minutes or so covered All In, New Japan & AEW.
There’s not many untold stories or anything. Just Cody recapping his career. I do like Austin putting over the AEW work and not going all company man and shitting on the competition.
Or like Jimmy Smith last night, completely ignored everything Cody did after he left WWE saying he had 6 years of ring rust to knock off. Which Graves thankfully showed him up on and made him sound like a moron.
