I was really hoping it would finish at a draw and go into overtime It really cannot be stated how impressive it is that it went 30 minutes and I wanted more.

If that is going to ruin an entire great show than you must loving hate wrestling. I really don't, I'm just salty as gently caress. Giving Dash and Dawson that really great match and then having JJ and Gable lose just really hosed with me. I'm glad both teams were able to show off big time, and I realize I was hyperbolic.

I really hope they don't screw Bayley up when she moves to the main roster. She should be a huge star for them.

It was always going to be pretty impossible to top a match that was great and had 16,000 screaming fans. That was loving fantastic and I loved the counters and callbacks to the first match. As for Sasha on the main roster, if you notice she hasn't actually lost a match. She is getting protected and I bet she goes for the belt once Charlotte is clear of Nikki.

Had to pause the show for 10 minutes or so due to a baby theft alarm. Have now finished though.

The only possible complaint I could have about Bayley/Sasha's style of matches is some of it's a little sloppy and they seem to spend a good half of the match glued to the turnbuckle but really it's good that they wrestle different. Funny that the faces won 5/6 matches tonight and people are still mad about the one the heels won.

I enjoyed it but I think they hosed up the match storytelling between Sasha and Bayley. If your narrative is that Banks has the skills, the ruthlessness, and the cunning to be the best and Bayley has to get by on her heroic qualities (and hints at tapping into some inner rage) Banks has to be more dominant. Give her more than a single pin lead, create some space for Bayley to overcome. Spend more time establishing that on paper, Sasha Banks is just plain better. When they're trading pins and control of the match, you're not selling me a story that really matters, y'know? You're saying "here's two evenly matched competitors, ps the good guy won." Since Bayley is supposed to be getting by on ability, heart, drive, etc., show me that by showing me her striving through getting her rear end kicked. Do it like they did with CM Punk, where he'd get his rear end kicked for most of the match but fight like a desperate cornered animal. You could put Punk against monsters like Lesnar and still look credible because he always looked like he was scratching and clawing to stay alive against superior opponents. I've caught flack for saying it before but Sasha Banks vs. Becky Lynch did a better job of showing who the characters are and making me care about their struggle.

They should get the (good) women off of RAW, dedicate 1/4 to 1/2 of NXT TV to the women, and give them 1 big NXT style match per year on a main roster PPV along with Takeover's and whatnot.

I like it because of the reasons someone else already stated: it feels more like an actual fight. Same reason why my other favorite match tonight worked, Mechanics/Finn and Joe, just back an rear end in a top hat into the corner and kill them.

Jordan/Gable still can be easily slotted into a tag title feud as the Dusty Classic winners aren't going to figure into it so it's a blank slate. And the tournament has done a good job at getting them tv time and the fan reactions to them will surely be noticed. I don't see any reason to worry about them.

Naw, the heels and faces don't have to be pure good and pure evil. Having Bayley get her rear end kicked for most of the match is a stupid way of moving forward since Bayley is going to be the one keeping the division alive as it rebuilds.

I've honestly been wishing for this for awhile. They have enough women's talent now to do a 1-hour show of their own, and they could stop trying to cram ALL their talent in via tag matches or three way matches or stables that no one cares about
