Cole is a billion times better as a heel, even if the rest of the Kingdom is lovely

I agree I just hate The Kingdom as a construct.

Yeah that's basically what I figured and if iPPV was still :10bux: I'd buy the poo poo out of it, but as it stands, nope.

Anytime I need to see your face I just close my eyes
And I am taken to a place
Where your crystal minds and magenta feelings
Take up shelter in the base of my spine
Sweet like a chica cherry cola

So basically like a lot of WWE shows lately but for $35 instead of $10. About what I figured.

Sucks that they cemented Cole as a heel though. The Kingdom does less than nothing for me..

Of the 7 matches on the card, 5 had dirty finishes. 4 were interference finishes. 1 of those was in a No DQ match, so I guess it wasn't technically dirty, but it was a pretty bad match. Another had tights pulling.

I really feel bad for Jay Lethal. This was worse than Seth Rollins booking for him.

Jesus Christ they really did WWE it up, then.

Lethal is a heel and it's OK for them to re-establish him as one in light of the reactions he was getting against Briscoe. Having him win dirty is fine for now, imo, especially since they should be protecting Kyle as he's arguably the best worker they have.

Depending on how long they want to have him hold the belt, the face turn and him breaking with House of Truth is better for him acting like a heel in the meantime.

I wasn't big on the Kingdom until I started going to Beyond Wrestling events. They are amazing there.

the moment the Kingdom clicked for me was when Mike Bennett started doing other people's moves and yelling their catchphrases and INTERNET DARLINGS while doing them

The problem I kinda have is that Lethal looked a lot stronger in Best in the World and Death Before Dishonor.

He's a dude who took the Jay Brisco to a limit and won pretty cleanly and then took Roddy an hour without losing, and beat him in the rematch as well. And then he can't go 20 minutes with reDragon in 2 matches?

For the first time defending it twice in one night, Lethal should have pinned Fish and then beat Kyle by interference. Protect Kyle, keep him on the ME cusp, and get reDragon back into the tag title picture.

Let Lethal realize how bad of an idea to defend both in the same night was at least once. He's a heel, let him eat crow.

The ME angle would have been a whole hell of a lot more palatable if the show hadn't been alternating gently caress finishes to that point. The angle was done well, but goddamn, would it have killed them to give a clean finish in at least one of the title matches
