Kinda weird for MJF to make it a big deal that Jericho needs to hit a move off the top rope next when he literally just hit a rana off the top rope minutes beforehand.

He's gotta pin them with it too. He didn't pin either Gage or Spears with the top rope rana.

the stip for next week isn't that Jericho has to do a top rope move, but win with one, which will be very funny.

Given that this seems to be his victory lap, I wouldn’t be surprised if Jericho has been specifically training one high flying move that he DESPERATELY wants to show off. Tuning in to see a Jericho Phoenix Splash

Main event was good, but the opener took me out of the show and FTR winning just really soured me. FTR are a great tag team, they've had some great matches, but another Bucks/FTR match does less than nothing for me. The rest of the show was okay.



Hope Charlotte had a blast though. I think they were at Charlotte tonight, I can never tell.

I don't understand all these takes here on why a New Japan belt title match should be on Dynamite instead of their first big US show, or the confusion why there'd be cross promotion between two companies who are currently working together.

After giving it a think, I'm fine with that finish for the elimination tag.

Because the story is this - Hangman gets to number 1, calls out Kenny for a match and Kenny ducks him, stacks the odds in his favor, and has to cheat his rear end off to win. Hangman doesn't just go away - he will continue to dog Kenny.

Now this is contingent of course of Hangman being the one who beats Kenny for the belt. If he ends up not being the one then I won't like this angle so much. It'll have a stink to it like when Booker T was jobbed out so Goldberg could win the title later.

It doesn't hurt that it was a drat good match.
