House of Horrors is hands-down the most embarrassing wrestling thing I've ever seen since the last thing Bray Wyatt did.

House of Horrors was bad but we all knew Bray Wyatt was dead after Wrestlemania. Bayley at least had some hope but for that match killed it all off.

Show rates better than it seemed except for the main, which kinda of is the big WWE problem in a nutshell. Mostly okay to great wrestling, some real bad booking that can make a show feel like it drags,

I know at least I enjoyed watching Bayley look like a dumb idiot baby and get the life beat out of her with a kendo stick for a few minutes. Would watch again.

House of Horrors was bad and a terrible end to a lovely feud that also wrecked one of the few times they'd started making Bray an actual credible threat.

The Bayley/Alexa match was far, far worse and absolutely deserves the DUD rating, it was appallingly bad and a massive blow to Bayley (Alexa at least came out of it looking dominant)

You should definitely watch it. It's only 5 minutes and it's actually kinda fascinating to see it 'cause you're like "wow, they're actually doing this."

OK OK guys, House of Horrors did have some fun individual moments, but let's not bend over backwards here. I can only take so much ironic shitposting, and "House of Horrors was actually good" is a line I'm not willing to cross. Be careful.

House of Horrors featured a man crushed by a prop refrigerator and spooky lights, what more do you need out of wrestling?

I'm not making a fucking QCS thread for this but seriously can we take a harder stance on Kiwifarms freaks like this guy, Jesus Christ seriously, you used to be better at knocking these creeps down. I guess ADTRW mods aren't responsible like GBS mods are.
The last couple Bray Wyatt things have been bad attempts at capturing semi pop culture things like the Broken Hardy's or Resident Evil 7. Of course, he still loses when it matters and is expected to keep being over somehow.

House of Horrors was kind of like an atomic bomb strike, while Alexa/Bayley was a firebomb. Yeah, it might have caused more fatalities, but it just doesn't have the same emotional impact of terribleness.

that's my official rating system anyway

They both came out of the House of Horrors alright. Bray looked like a loser, but Bray is a loser so it's fine.

The kendo stick match was a character assassination. The dud's obviously for the booking anyway, it's not like Alexa or Bayley blew the match. They did what they were supposed to.

Bayley almost botched the suplex on the outside. VERY UNSAFE.

Alexa did the "beat the crap of the other woman" well.

That was storytelling. Bayley is so valiant that her body nearly rejected doing something dirty like an outside suplex.

Oh, no, you misunderstood me.

She sucks at wrestling and should be a manager instead.

She's basically the Enzo of the women's division. With, I'll grant, a snappier DDT.

Alexa Bliss should follow in Women's Division Pillar Alicia Fox's footsteps and become TJP's valet.

I'm just glad Bayley got squashed out of the title picture so now that when she has bad matches against other people and people point out they're bad, dumb Jimmy Howard fans (I'll refrain from naming anyone specific, I'm classy) won't be able to use lazy "Yeah but Alexa!" arguments.
