This is great and all but lets talk more about how the crowd is terrible for being so into this.

The best thing I can say about that fight is that it looked and felt like a fight. Whenever you can make a person forget that this is a scripted athletic event and make it look like just two people trying to destroy each other, you have done a good job.

They're gonna have to get that little girl under contract so they can bring her on the road when Bayley gets called up.

Like Sasha will even get that much screen time.

Only bummer coming out of the show for me is that it seems like nothing really got setup going forward.

That was really excellent. I think I liked their Brooklyn match better, but I have a bias having been there in person.

Now how the gently caress do I see the replay of the first hour of the show that I missed on the Network?

What I love most about the match wasn't just that the hand played into the finish, but that all of the biggest spots played on the last match and the overall story of the match built on the entire Bayley story arc. loving fantastic work from everyone (even Eyebrows Ref).

They are great indeed, and I'd have liked it if they won, but they didn't have the match of the night.

They'll get their time to shine. I can see them wanting to go with a traditional Face/Heel overcoming the odds finish. If that is going to ruin an entire great show than you must loving hate wrestling.

Jordan and Gable should've won the whole drat thing, but tonight was about Sasha and Bayley.

Kevin Owens is great.

Also, Sasha is such a great heel, making Izzy cry, cheating in just the right way. That was all perfect.

I have altered my retirement plans. Pray I do not alter them any further.
Between this and Shimmer's 10th anniversary this weekend, it's a pretty big week for women's wrestling.

Then it's back to 5 minute matches on RAW.
