Oh sad. But he left a legacy of swearing and sounding like a crazy person.
Only just found out the Jeff Hardy botch was actually scripted. Damn he really commits to the bit.

The last thing he needs at this stage in his career is to be taking scripted botches in that manner.

WWE and AEW really need to ditch this beat the champ to face the champ nonsense. Though good to get Cole far away from Jericho.

Main event of Collision looks tasty Joe, White and Robinson vs Punk & FTR

Even if it was scripted, and even is he landed safely, that fact that everyone assume it was a notch speaks volumes.

Dynamite was once again a good one throughout, full of entertaining promos and matches with a good crowd two weeks running.
Hook is really becoming a more accomplished wrestler, that tornado tag was something.

I still don’t get the Hook hype. He’s ok in the ring but I need more/any character. Same problem a lot of people had with Jade basically.

The guys pretty much in the same place he was when he debuted.

He’s literally Taz 2.0. His son got the exact same “we care about this guy why?” booking he did back in ECW.

Nah, he was protected with 2 minute squashes when he debuted, he can last a lot longer now without looking lost in the ring. His style and look is unique and I think he's used sparingly and booked well with his abilities in mind unlike Jade for the most part.
I don't know if he'll ever be a main eventer, will probably need a few years of frequent matches and a reinvention of his character to get there to break out of being a bit of a novelty act, but I like him.

They haven't done anything about the women's belts being on the wrong brands because they want to keep Bianca Raw women's title reign going even though she's beaten the record. Though I do feel they will just get given new belt designs rather than swap them between champs. And here we are. Asuka getting a new belt on tonight's SD so I dare say Rhea is getting one on Raw. Not at all surprised

Its gotta be Priest or Dunne I reckon.
Priest because they actually care about him. Dunne for being a HHH boy and for that home country pop.

Priest is my bet, because they’re teasing a JD break up, or at least Finn leaving the group. Would be surprising if they took the title off Seth this quickly, but if they did, it’d be for Finn. HHH’s two sons battling for supremacy.

Eli Drake would have been such a good Mr Money In The Bank if he’d been around during the early days of the gimmick. He’s such an old school talker, he’d have been perfect on 00s Smackdown (or just being a guy in the territory days like he looked on Powerrr before it went shit)

I can't stand LA Knight. I think they should have put Dominic in there to win it, just for the mega heat.

Priest has it locked up - he'd certainly be the best out of that bunch.
Makes me sad how far Nakamura has fallen since his NJPW days. Mostly his fault though so can't blame WWE for that one.

Priest has the best build up right now.
With Seths acting commitments and then giving him several title defences before MitB I could see either Finn winning then teasing a double cross and cash in or Priest cashes in during the actual match.
Nakamura is a dark horse for me. Simply because he is definitely one of HHHs guys.

Again? Wasn't he arrested last year when doing his Evening With thing? Didn't even know he was over again.

I’m going to take a huge stab in the dark and say he was very drunk at the time whatever he’s done

Adam Cole has looked iffy since his return and I was worried about him being pushed in to a title feud but last week's promo and last night's match have dispelled those fears.
Really good match, MJF and Cole had the crowd eating out of their hands from the first second, it was perfectly paced and a great example of wrestlers telling a story in the ring.
