We need more women in STEM, and by that, I mean skateboarding, television, esports, and magic.
I don't know what it is about the cruiserweights but I don't give the slightest gently caress about them. The only times I've cared were the initial tournament (tournaments are fun), when Enzo got put there and everyone fuckin' hated him, and that time I saw the guy do a funny politician gimmick once.

From what I've seen, it's like NXT without the stories or gimmicks.

I don't think Cedric had much to do without the title. Ali will do well chasing it for a bit I think. He's done crazy well as an underdog during this tournament, and Cedric has swung and missed at the belt for too long, he needed this more than Ali did to cement himself.

Still salty my boy didn't win, but really there was no bad call here.

Ali and Cedric have had better matches than that. That was such a let down.

Bingo. There were plenty of tourney matches on 205 Live around that length where the guys went way further than that.

They did a #1 contender thing, so Ali has to wait.

It’s loving Mania. With the exception of the Rock-Hogan type spectacle, you’re not going to do that. Especially if you already know you’re following it with a fart of a Battle Royal.

Yeah, more time wasn't going to do anything for that match. It had been slowed down notably from what was the norm during the tournament and if 205 live is going to be dipping back into that style then I'm gonna be dipping back out of watching it :shrug:
