I knew Paul/Ricochet was opening so Logan can get to his brothers boxing shit, but I’m surprised Cody/Brock is second

I'm surprised Brock didn't offer to fight Logan to see who gets to leave first.

Do we get a huge return tonight? Or nah.
Does Rock show up after the main event?
Does Randy show up and lay out Cody?

I'm going to start a campaign to end Spanish Fly. They’re 0-2 on that spot, might want to give it a rest. If any of you talk about how over-rehearsed and flippy AEW matches look after this. The match was fine, but I wasn’t wildly impressed. Logan’s fiancé is DiCaprio’s ex like 7 years ago. She got too old for him. |

Now it's time for him to learn how to work because he's a natural. |

Agreed, the reason Paul has done such a good job and looked like a natural is because you aren’t over exposing him in the ring. You only do a couple matches and then he can get more training and rehearsal time to make it look better.
Zero clue who you pair him with after this.
Cody? That’d be odd, but they could do a PPV match I’m sure.

Cody takes suplexes like Lashley did
Scary and right on his shoulder

Why did Cody not get DQ’d when he used the steps as a weapon? I mean Brock put him through the announce table but those have always been free reign
I digress. Simple story here, Cody won’t quit, the heart and drive will take him to the World Title
But if that “end game” is anything but the Universal Title with Roman, then this will all be worthless.

Battle Royal was pointless but fun. Right person won with Knight.
I believe everyone’s balls stayed in their gear, so that’s a plus
I still fear Knight will ultimately get squashed because he got over organically and not because of Vince

Once again the makeup department for the women is apparently ran by a blind person
The shit is on Shayna & Ronda’s face?

Crowd is dead silent and when they aren’t, it’s from boring chants
Remember when Ronda was like the most over woman in the company during her first run?
She left to have a child, came back and has been a completely different person, for the worse. She’s just seemed so uninterested this time around

Is that it for Drew? Did he sign a new deal?

Love Rollins, don’t get me wrong, but it still baffles me how he dresses like such a dweeb and is the super over babyface

Fun match, but Balor looked like a geek at the end there. Seeds planted for Priest breaking off (hell maybe Rhea and Dom break off from Balor too and they turn him babyface)
Balor should’ve won. You could’ve had fun with that storyline the next few months.

Yeah there’s “59,000+” in attendance tonight
Womens 3 way up now and I could not care less. So bored by Charlotte title matches/opportunities.
Also Asuka the champion, coming out second of three is an odd choice. Did Vince forget she was champ?

Commentary talking about how Charlotte is near unbeatable right after saying she’s a former 14 time champ
She’s lost 14 times for that to happen you dopes.
Crowd very quiet. They’re either tired or holding it back until the main event.
