Because the show is booked wonderfully.

There's a lot of crowds that could be hot if Raw gave them any reason to care. Raw has no understanding of an audience. Raw has an extra hour of show and yet I would still guarantee if that promo last night was on Raw, Alexa would've interrupted it 5 minutes sooner and nobody would've given a poo poo because nothing about Naomi's part would've been allowed to resonate.

It also helps when you have an authority figure who isn't a legit narcissist worried only about how she comes off in the segment.

also that the mcmahon on smackdown is way more interested in throwing himself off tall things

They had an easy out to avoid the botch ever occurring, too - have Harper and Styles on the apron, both struggling to knock the other off while not hitting the floor, one of them is about to get an advantage and right at the climax...



Lights come back on and both Harper and Styles are down on the floor. Lights were out, so no way to show a replay or confirm which one hit first, match is a draw, continue storyline as it is now.

The Usos have always been solid hands in the ring and are finally opening up/flourishing with their new direction. It's good!

SDL deserves all the praise it gets. Amazing show. AJ Styles vs Harper is a great pairing. I hope they don't do a redraft.

The fat Uso has always had a ton of personality on Total Divas. Last night was the first time in however many years in WWE that he was actually allowed to be himself.

I didn't get a chance to see it last night, but I was planning on watching the Hulu stream tonight. How bad was it?

Seemed like the spotting was weird with AJ being all inverted like that.

Daniel could have easily waved it away by saying that both of them were in the air falling at the same time, so it's a draw regardless.

Harper was still lying on the apron when AJ went over and touched.

The spotting was awkward but that's still on the wrestlers for botching.

Yeah, I mean you have to figure they practiced that at least a few times to work on the timing.

He was likely supposed to suplex AJ onto the apron so they could both flop off. Instead AJ missed the apron entirely and went to the floor, and Luke rolled off but clearly later than AJ.

It looked like Luke couldn't keep AJ vertical (or AJ couldn't keep himself up? I'm not sure exactly how much of a suplex each man contributes) as they started to go backwards so he went off sideways instead of straight.

On one hand I love Lou Parper and Big Breakfast and Husky "Waylon Mercy" Harris getting big pushes and looking great in the ring. On the other hand I love AJ Styles so it's depressing to think that even though he's the 2nd-to-last man in all these matches, he's going to end up with a spotmonkey match against Shane. I'd much rather have him in a triple threat with the swampmens.

If people start being able to regularly tell them apart, that's how you'll know they're on another level (another good part of their heel turn, they're starting to dress different). The Bellas were lucky, they look nothing alike but still got to do twin magic spots.

The only thing to really tell the Bellas apart pre-boobjob was Brie's vag tattoos, and those are easy enough to cover up for Twin Magic.

Twins tend to have one with a round face and one with a straighter face. Nikki has a bigger chin.

I loving wish Charlotte would cut promos about how nightmares are the best part of her day and how Bayley should take a plane into a nosedive. We need someone in the women's division like that but all the good wrestlers either have an accent that wouldn't work with that (Asuka, Becky, the Aussies) or already have perfect gimmicks (Alexa).

If Rosemary ever leaves TNA they could pick her up or something.
