"IT'S A TAG TEAM GOLDEN AGE, A REBIRTH OF THE BRACKET"

"Actually no, gently caress tag teams."

"JUST KIDDING IT'S ANOTHER GOLDEN AGE."

"Tag teams are for bitches."

tune in in six months for another superteam to rise and the WWE to try and fail to hinge the entire division on their backs.

gee-o. it's gonna be alright. Tag Teaming is a high-end proposition that can never be displaced even by the corrupt officials at wrestling.

"Jesus, did I say that? Or just think it? Was I talking? Did they hear me?"

I stuck around for the entirety of 205 Live (the Swann vs. TJP match was excellent) just to see Nakamura live, which I had never witnessed before.

Mega pop. MEGA pop. Good lord.



Y'know who else got excellent face heat? Naomi. Also, her glow belt is rad as gently caress in person. It looks like she defeated the MCP in Tron for it, or something.



Also, good crowd tonight. None of that Dayton, OH horseshit.

If they split up every tag team thats a bunch of new feuds since EVERY tag team that breaks up has to immediately feud with each other for 4 months.... except for Rusev vs Jinder which was the one I actually kinda wanted. Konnor vs Viktor is going to be the modern day Shawn vs Janetti

Hoooly poo poo I finally saw the whole thing DAAAAAMMMN that burn on Xavier, and the crowd???? They knew EXACTLY what they were talking about. Although Xavier's comeback was pretty sweet with the Roman call out.

Everyone around me responded to the Xavier reference with incredibly loud OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH's. I'd say a good 70% of the place knew what the Usos were talking about. It was hilarious.

Thought the glow belt was on the tacky side when I saw the photos of it at this weekend's live events. But on TV it came off absolutely amazing and really adds to her presentation.

I meant that I figured she'd get the new glow belt and then immediately drop it because WWE loves to screw with people that way, but, yeah, I thought she was toast against Charlotte too right after the shakeup.

For most of this reign I've figured Naomi is screwed when her next title defense rolls around because it's just never felt like the booking has strongly gotten behind her but she's gone and quietly built up the longest single reign with the title and is only a week behind Alexa for most combined days. :shrug:

Yes, they've cut out the Usos talking about Big E's tits and Xavier being R-rated

Notes from Bayley's podcast with Austin:

Feels she's in a weird spot in her career and it's time to evolve. Thinking about changing both look and in-ring (aggression)
Talked to Seth about his in-ring changes. He said he tries to be like Austin
Feels comfy talking to Vince (would go to HHH first but he said she needed good relationship with Vince)
The Corey interview was a step back, like she was starting all over again
Just wants to wrestle, doesn't need to always be in title picture
Wants to wrestle till 35. Wants to open school someday (really enjoys teaching)

2016: can't wait for Bayley to debut, she's gonna be the female John Cena!!!!!!!!!
2017: well, hopefully she makes it to retirement before killing herself

That injury really worked out for her, all the rumors before that were that she was just going to be champ for a month.

She realized that you can't lose the title in your hometown if you're not champ going in.

It's really strange when you consider Gable was going to be kept in NXT during the draft and Jordan was going to be the only one who got called up.

Kurt would overshadow them more than likely. It'd be hard to recover whenever they parted ways with Kurt.
