They need to give Alexa spooky Scanners powers.

Giving people nosebleeds with her mind and whatnot. Flinging objects across the ring, etc;etc.

So.... Roman is officially the first person to beat The Demon. The Demon's loss to Joe in NXT got erased like Charlotte's title wins. Joe loses his title and his win over The Demon in the same month.

The best thing about that finish is how the clip features every generic "big moment" that WWE has completely worn into just another spot like the announce table break, spear into the timekeepers area and the ring breaking.

Not true


They also had a women's title match end like 20+ mins into it by a DQ. A DQ in a title match. On a PPV. A PPV named extreme rules. As much as I hate AEW's blind refs and 3 matches a night ending with some heel jawjacking with the ref on the apron as everyone's factions run in, god the alternative is so much worse.

Unless it's supposed to launch a separate angle for Balor, but they'll probably just forget about him now and let him languish on the mid card

Roman kept looking up at the sky so I think God did it. God could feud with Finn to try to improve his 0-1 win/loss record in WWE.

WWE did a great show in their style of wrestling, if you didn't like it I don't blame you but it was entertaining in every way you could ever expect WWE to be entertaining, it was all 80s nonsense and goofy stuff but it was pretty solid for what they were going for. I prefer different wrestling but if I look at it objectively it was an entertaining show the same way that robocop 2 is an entertaining movie.
