They are doing Hell in a Cell first? Swapping match 1 and 3 on that card makes way more sense.

You’re going to presumably give fans everything they could see from violent physical performance standpoint. Where can they go from there after a hell in a cell? They’ll be chasing that first match the rest of the night. Only thing they have going for them is they have very established stories for the remaining matches (other than Nia and Bailey which I’m unfamiliar with either way). |

Have Punk win tonight, whatever, go on and win the World Title, do what you do.
But Drew won the feud with this level of savagery.

I think Punk and I being almost exactly the same age and growing up about 20 minutes away from each other makes me register the shoot pain more. Haha |

Add to that the last step shot Drew took to the spine. I felt that one too.

Did Corey Graves just reference the "Last Battle of Atlanta"?

I was not a fan of the thumbtacks, but damn that was a great match.

The Nia leg lock looked like something that happened in a fraternity at 3 AM.

Punk & Drew was the best Cell match in 20 years. Even though Phil, Bret Hart superfan #99 over here, can’t put on a Sharpshooter to save his life. The blood, the drama, the callbacks, great stuff. The feud needs to end now.
Nia & Bayley could be Worst WWE Match of the Year. Holy shit does Nia suck. I don’t even know what else to say. She “tried?” a hurricanrana for fuck sake. The amount of botches on Nia’s part is staggering.
The stuff with Tiffy saved it a bit, but the match itself was fucking brutal.

I started at 7pm - thinking the first hour was going to be preshow. Missed the match. Will go back and watch. I did see that Nia raided Kane's closet for her ring attire this evening. That or the Kool Aid Man. She is so terrible in the ring, she is going to legit hurt everyone on the roster. She is not a draw at all, they need to stop with this nonsense.

Michael Cole telling us he’s a fan of Quevo & Lil Baby is the definition of dweeb

Priest is a fan of Razor Ramon, but he’s dressed in Kronik cosplay

After the previous atrocity, a perfectly fine TV main event style match between Balor & Priest was needed as a palate cleanser.
I’m leaving, have shit to do. I’ll catch the last two matches later.

Yeah that was fine.
There has to be a FINAL return in the main event for it to go on last.

So they’re doing the Survivor Series champion vs champion thing but just at Crown Jewel. Winner gets a Blood Money Belt.
Wonderful.
File that under “Who Gives A Shit” Paul.
