Reigns catching the mic was the coolest part. Dunn should be fired for missing it. |

Incredibly underwhelming Summerslam. Think the first
&last match were the only decent ones for me. The rest I had zero investment in.

Do like that one of the first things HHH has done is bring Kai back and move Io to the main roster to team with Bayley. All of which Vince rejected earlier this year.
Also Cole was on a different level last night without anyone in he's ear all night. He even said wrestling and fans for the first time in years.

Well Flair didn't die at least. Hopefully that really is the last match for him.

Word is they might return tonight on Raw.
Even better view of that catch
Can just imagine Brock betting Roman he wouldn't catch it before they went out

7 year feud of them just throwing mics at each other.
After that triple threat match, can we have a AJ vs Ali feud.
And can every first hour of Raw be commercial free.

Absolute moron. If I was 163 years old I wouldn't be planning a fake heart attack as I'd probably have a real one while everyone ignored me. His next retirement match will kill him.

Yeah, quality finish - Ali and Styles would have absolute bangers if they could go 1v1.
Not much difference on RAW yesterday bar Ciampa getting a solid win but it's early days yet.

The matches felt different enough. No 2 minute nothing matches, no 24l/7.
3 matches to determine the No.1 contender for a mid card belt. Not to mention a video package showing the history and prestige of that belt.
I don't see Vince ever letting Ali do a tornado DDT to the outside.
Other than that a good mix of in ring and backstage promos that got straight to the point.
Early days but I think HHH will look to make everything matter be it low, mid or top talent. As well as making tag wrestling a thing again. I'm guessing we will also see another all women's event next year.
The big question is what will he do with NXT and will NXTUK start getting some love again.

I seriously don’t think in Vince’s orbit even knew NXTUK existed.
I don’t think NXT2.0 will change much. That its being used as developmental again is probably for the best since they exhausted most of the top indie seams and AEW have snapped up the rest.

Did read they would have killed NXTUK off before BT got the rights and said they wanted to keep it under the condition they got to film it at the BT studio.
HHH reportedly giving wrestlers more freedom in the ring and on the mic.

That’s great to see. Surviving cancer AND being sat on by Yokozuna. He’s a real tough guy!

Watched the Iyo Sky vs Belair match on youtube. I'm only watching occasional random matches these days so I don't have much to compare it to technically, but it was good fun. LOLed at the sitting on the apron bit. Then got a withering look from the missus.  |

Small change but definitely welcome - love Gunther/Walter.
Saw Kross came back on Smackdown - really don't see what people see in the guy outside of his entrance and valet (and even those are wasted on him imo). Generic as fuck.

So apparently Vince had gone completely off Gunther and was about to Bury him on TV(then likely release him).
Instead he defends the IC title in the main event at Smackdown and has an absolute banger with Nakamura.
I've also not that in just 2 weeks the crowds are apart of the show again and really getting into it.
Hit Row coming back is also pretty nice. But they do need to cool down on the returns a little. Spread them out nicely.
