The Christian segment was worth the price of admission alone. Also, I’m pretty sure the cameras tried to cut away after Swerve’s win because the entire hard cam side was doing the Nana dance.The people love Swerve.

The MJF poo poo is still so bad. I really thought we’d get the week off from his dumb bullshit with the holiday. The crowd still seemed to like it, though. Bleh.

Bless Joe for coming out and bring cool, though.

With the way Cole was talking, I really thought they were going to relinquish the tag titles for a second there, which would have made the whole dumb thing even dumber. With Cole talking MJF into honoring his word, I think it's a guarantee he helps MJF retain at Worlds End to tease the Devil poo poo out more, whether it's eventually him or some dumb swerve.

Oh, and the crowd also loved Rush. Hopefully this tournament helps him get a sustained push. Those two chopping the poo poo out of each other was cool. Gave me flashbacks to last year's beautiful Jericho/Suzuki chop-off.

Yeah, there were a couple of What chants. It was very obnoxious. I was on the upper level and it seemed like a more casual crowd than usual. I don’t think they were that bad overall, but it seemed less full than the last two Thanksgiving shows. And having two heel vs. heel matches and a main event match featuring a guy who is only sporadically on TV created a lot of weird vibes. It certainly wasn’t the best Chicago crowd, but it was fine.

I think the Jake Hager hat taunting was one of the loudest bits of the night. The fact that Danhausen actually had the hat was insane.

I liked the Switchblade/RUSH finish because it wasn't protracted. It was quick, punchy, didn't feel too bullshit, and was done in a flash. Made Jay immediately seem like a real slimy bastard and RUSH is gonna hopefully go on a warpath in the next few rounds. Dug their match a lot.

Yeah. I liked it. Jay can get away with that blatant level of cheating and not have it feel like a cop out. Like Christian, he’s just that much of a weasel. And it protected Rush, who I think is going to get over so much from this tourney. I honestly think he’s the guy who’s going to see the most proportional benefit from being in it.

Thanks, friend. I’m on the move and have a lot of family poo poo going on this week, but figured since I went through the trouble of filling out the form on Wednesday, I should finish throwing poo poo at the wall.

One of the biggest stars in wrestling went back to the bad company that’s already been on an upswing, but at least we get 4 more months of MJF working the worst angles that wrestling has ever seen.

Kenny hitting PAC with every one of his belts was the type of inspired cheating I can get behind.

God drat, that poo poo was so rad.

Despite my lukewarm feelings on the product recently, I don’t think a ton needs to be done to freshen things up. All of the MJF-adjacent angles just take up too much of the show and have been dragging on forever. Him dropping the Title and moving things along would seriously do so much for the product overall.

I also think the BCC, especially Mox, needs a new direction. Despite good matches, they’re all over the card and their earlier chaotic energy isn’t there. A heelish Trios Title run would be good, I think. Focus that overall energy into one thing for a bit. They just feel like a dominant faction that isn’t really doing much with it.

And they should really put the Intercontinental Title on someone hot who hasn’t been belted. This is what OC should have done in the first place instead of that Mox redemption arc. They spent all this time building the belt and Orange in tandem and then wasted the rub. Now both him and the belt feel like they’re in limbo. Put it on Brody, put it on Malakai, put it on RUSH, put it on Garcia, put it on loving anyone else. There’s a million belts flying around. Let some other people get the juice from them.
