1. Jags D is all fired up.

   1. Ravens only have 15 yards of offense in the whole first half. That’s ridiculous.

      1. I think Flacco is ready to head back home, just not their day today, Ravens look Real bad

   2. Wow this is nuts. I wasn’t expecting this score.

2. I just saw the final of the Ravens/Jags game. My goodness.

3. Solder has been useless for the Pats.

4. Gonna be a long season in New York.

   1. Jets > Giants?

      1. Last time I started watching more Jets games because the Giants sucked, the Jets went to the conference championship twice, so…good luck?

      2. Then again, the “throw the ball immediately so the offensive line doesn’t have enough time to fuck up” strategy might have some potential.

         1. Fucking Eagles did it again.

5. “Tank mode” Jets looking sharp

6. Judge is 2 HR’s shy of tying Big Mac’s AL rookie record.

   1. Make that ONE shy.

7. I hold my breath every time Gronk takes a hit.

8. How does O’Brien not go on 4th and 1?? Idiot.

9. Did O’Brien call for Watson to run up and spike the ball?!?!

10. How do the Broncos beat the Cowboys and then lose to the Bills? At least the Falcons won.

    1. Any given Sunday.

    2. What does “At least the Falcons won” mean?

11. Great package with Cena/Roman right now.

12. Aaron Judge is one walk away from tying Randolph’s record for most walks by a Yankee RH hitter. 119 in 1980.

13. Can Braun Strowman just throw Sam Roberts through the desk?

14. DO YOU WANNA WALK………….with Elias……………..

15. Apollo Loooose!

16. Which demographic is Sam Roberts directed at exactly?

    1. Old Opie and Anthony fans?

17. Do we see a title change here? I think so.

18. Bo Dallas looks like Mini Rhyno.

19. Crowd remains apathetic towards Jordan

20. Crowd chanting for Miz.

21. Anyone think Braun wins the belt tonight and holds it until mania for a big sendoff match with Big Show

    1. I think and hope that Braun wins it but I’m not sure about the match with Show.

    2. I think with Cena and Reigns on the card they’ll do a no contest for title

22. Cole comes off far too annoying in trying to get fans behind Jordan. Its a lost cause though. Just abort this storyline.

23. Jordan is toast.

24. HA!

25. Is this a rib on Jordan to have him do this promo right now? Are they trying to make it worse?

26. Oh boy. That promo was rough.

27. oh burn..lol…wow that was a terrible promo

28. I feel for Jordan. This is 100% on WWE Creative.

29. Why does David Bix have to microanalyze every little thing?

    1. I don’t know how he has the energy to care about such minutia… and go on and on and on…

       1. before I said something, he was going on about WWE Fans making fun of adoption because the fans chanted who’s your Daddy

          1. Well, when people say wrestling fans can be pedantic weirdos, this is a prime example.

    2. I like Bix a lot but yeah, sometimes he gets caught up on minor details.

    3. He’s a lost soul without Zellner carrying him.

30. Jordan referring to Kurt as “Kurt” and not “my dad” is another reason why his promos suck.

    1. Daddy would work best

    2. Non genuine crap

31. Following that match with Finn vs. Bray isnt exactly a great way to keep the hot crowd from the start.

32. I liked Finn’s new colors tonight.

    1. Came here to post that’s

    2. Yah it’s a good look, I liked the jacket too.

    3. Same.

33. For a terrible feud, this match has been decent.

    1. This might be the best Wyatt/Balor match.

34. I liked that match, told a solid story and the right guy went over.

35. They have to seriously re-think the Wyatt character now. Give him a break from TV.

    1. Guess the Wyatt Family reunion rumors were nada.

       1. I’m glad. They don’t need it for the third time.

36. Since Seth & Dean are on good terms now, after the “Burn it Down” part of Seth’s theme it should kick into Dean’s

37. Rollins knocked Cesaro’s teeth out. Literally.

    1. Really stiff match … Rawtag division has been great since Mania.

38. This tag run has definitely helped Sheamus’ GWWE case for me.

39. This is so great!

40. What a match!!

41. Fantastic stuff, good show so far

42. Cesaro is the man!

43. That tag match was really good

44. https://twitter.com/RealMickFoley/status/912123285579673601

    1. I was thinking about that during the match. Like what if he just goes Foley and doesn’t get it fixed?

45. Holy shit she landed right on her neck

46. Nasty powerbomb spot

47. Jesus Christ that landing was rough.

48. That was disgusting.

49. The Match was really good. Some nasty bumps

50. I enjoyed that. All the matches have been good tonight

51. That was the best Nia has looked in the ring.

52. Good match. Finish once again made Bayley look like an idiot but it was obvious Nia vs. Alexa will happen as the next Title feud

    1. You don’t think Bliss vs asuka?

       1. They’ve been building towards Nia vs. Alexa for a while now.

          1. So who does Asuka go aganist then? And also Nia was getting some cheers tonight.

53. RIP Eddie

54. Wow. I thought for sure that Cena/Reigns was gonna go on last.

    1. Brock is the main event. It is the way of things.

55. Bayley and banks need to turn on each other and do a program

56. This video package is a very good opportunity to see what’s up in the football game.

    1. Been watching the game on my laptop. Skins have looked good tonight. (I’m pretty biased, I am a redskins fan)

57. Michael Col should commentate baseball on ESPN with all the worthless stats

58. Here we go, can Cena join the long list of people that try to put Reigns over to no effect?

    1. He has to appreciate that nice pop – easily the most cheers on a PPV he’s had in forever

    2. Jesus, Cole with out-of-this-world hyperbole. Biggest match in cena’s carrer; biggest moment in Roman’s career.

       1. Cole has had a shitty night.

          1. I joined at the end of the tag match and I’m already annoyed

59. So D Wade is a free agent now

    1. Imagine if ends up in Oklahoma.

       1. He’ll probably end up in cleveland

          1. Also, a good choice.

60. Long wait promotes even more boos

61. Cena seriously looks ten years younger just because he grew come hair again.

62. Bold prediction: the chants will go thusly:
    YOU BOTH SUCK
    YOU BOTH SUCK
    YOU BOTH SUCK
    THIS IS AWESOME

63. You both suck from the crowd.

    No they don’t.

    1. I hate crowds
       I hate crowds
       I hate crowds

       1. This 100% some crowds just get too damn cute.

64. How into this is Vince right now

65. Cena gunshot-wound selling minutes in, come on man. I get they’re going 25, but two counts this early also is just a bad layout.

    1. Cena going up the ramp was a really dumb spot.

66. Not feeling this match at all.

    1. Shows how good AJ really is…his matches with these 2

67. After what happened with batista, why would they ever do that spot again

    1. Because Vince takes head butts at age 72

68. That didnt look good.

69. Ugh that spot is so overdone

70. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/a1c50e3cbe55ec5c7b427cf1f36446d14004326f87dc5de2c99b59959c0cb436.png

71. Oooof. Bad landing for Roman.

72. Reigns pretty much gave himself a spike DDT on that spear.

73. Match has picked up last 5 min

74. Cena is so strong his neck barely even makes contact on bumps

75. Very clear this is the only meeting between these two. Cena is working this one like this is the blow-off.

    1. Cena worked like a guy doing the job from start to finish. But not in the Tony Garea sandbag way, more like the no fucks given type

    2. Cena always gets the win back

    3. The rematch they have at WM one year or another will really be something.

       1. That could certainly happen, although the post-match hand raise to a chorus of boos (like just Mania 29 with Cena AND Roman at the Rumble ’15) is already exhausted.

76. That was disappointing.

77. That was very good once it got going. A smidge less so than you’d expect considering how awesome each guy is individually, but still really fun.

    1. They didn’t mesh as well as I’d hoped. Not a good match.

       1. I meant match for each other lol.

78. So cena is gone to when the rumble now?

79. Gross.

80. Oh boy, did I hate Cena raising Roman’s hand after the match.

    1. That’s too far
       That’s too far
       That’s too far

81. This match was stupid and overproduced.

    1. Ending included

82. Match did not elevate Roman…just like all his matches

83. They went from chanting you both suck to thank you cena.

84. That kid looked entire nonplussed that Cena came over to him.

    1. Bow and wave makes me think Cena’s out until Mania perhaps – depending on film schedules.

    2. Now using Miz to try to put over Reigns.

85. Getting a crowd to yell “Thank you Cena” might be Roman Reigns’ greatest achievement.

86. Come a long way from Nuthin But a G thang

87. I’ve never went to hating someone to liking someone as much as the miz…he is great

88. I hope Neville wins in 30 seconds.

89. Let’s all prepare ourselves spiritually for Enzo’s big title win.

    1. RIP Cruiserweight Division.

90. Damn, crowd doesnt give a fuck about Enzo.

91. What is Enzo Beetlejuice tonight?

92. Is he in prison or is he Beetlejuice?

    1. I said the same thing Glenn. DAY OH!

93. Was miz hunting towards a shield reunion with Angle?

    1. Shield v Miztourage

       1. I mean shields first match was at TLC. It’ll be nice symmetry.

          1. That’s in my neck of the woods and I wasn’t going to go…damn it

94. Enzo looks like he works at Foot Locker.

95. First flip I’ve ever seen Enzo do.

96. I agree with those saying Vic Joseph has been awful on commentary tonight.

97. It’s crazy that at payback last year Enzo and cass were hot as hell, then he got hurt. After that night it all went down hill. Never was able to get it back.

98. During this match, the redskins fumble and the raiders score. I blame Enzo

99. This is all kinds of bad.

100. Enzo needs to be a permanent manager.

     1. Or permanently future endeavored

101. Wait… Enzo does the Deep Impact now? And we’ve had no fatalities yet?

102. Oh lord

103. Awful

104. Dear lord that was awful.

105. Blah

106. Whatever.

107. Jesus Henry Christ.

108. What a shit way for Neville’s reign to end.

     1. At least this one was only a month.

        Tozawa will always have ended the good one.

     2. Nevilles second reign. They already ended his first reign in a shitty fashion

        1. I totally forgot that Tozawa held the title for a minute.

109. Thanks for taking a hot steaming dump on the Cruiserweight Title.

     1. I mean, he has to put the poop emoji on the sides of the belt, right?

110. So, uh, what now with Enzo? I assume Neville gets a rematch but after that what’s the plan?

     1. I hope Cedric destroys him.

     2. Champ vs champ tomorrow on raw. Enzo vs Braun

     3. TJP or Kendrick probably.

        1. TJP and Swann are still feuding. And Kendrick & Gallagher are together and feuding with Cedric. You also have Tozawa and Gulak feuding. That currently leaves Dar, Nese, and Daivari as heels and Ali, Metalik, and Dorado as faces.

           1. Neville will take up enough time to let one of those finish.

              Hopefully it transitions to Gulak.

              1. Gulak is great. His character is wonderful and he can play off of Enzo well, like he did with the Fashion Police.

              2. https://twitter.com/DrewGulak/status/912146314351316993

              3. He doesnt care for showboating. And we still have 271 slides left of his Power Point presentation!

111. Here we go!

112. Expecting a violent sprint here.

113. Remember when this match was rumored while Strowman was in the Wyatt Family and we were dreading it????

     1. Boy we were wrong haha

     2. Amazing what happened. He was nowhere ready for that at the time though.

     3. And now he is more over than Bray

114. I thought it was over right there haha

115. Braun looks gassed.

116. And this match has been disappointing so far.

117. Wow.

118. Whoa

119. This match was better than Cena reigns

120. That was underwhelming.

121. God it sure feels like they’re setting up Lesnar reigns for Mania, by making both men look unstoppable this year

122. Raiders getting smoked…crazy week

123. I liked the main a good bit, more good Lesnar selling, actually had good payoff spots – like the F5 after early it made Lesnar collapse because of the early back work. I liked that finish a lot better than the snap one F-5 out of nowhere they did with Joe match.

     1. I thought it underwhelmed.

        The top two matches tonight did not deliver, IMO.

        1. I thought Braun got gassed which didn’t help…lesnar made him look great though in losing

        2. I thought the crowd was oddly quiet during it, but that didn’t take away the work and story they told.

124. I think I’m over Brock as champ. Time to put the title on someone else.

125. King looks awful.

     1. Yeah he just needs to go away

126. If Roman wins the Rumble to make sure that shit match with Lesnar happens at Mania, I’m done

     1. Oh it will happen in philly again

     2. You didn’t like the WM 31 match?

        1. Not enough to see a part 2

           1. Even without thinking it’s the best WM main event in history like I do, I still think that’s the ultimate match for them to run and the best thing they could do.

              1. Lesnar pinning Reigns at SummerSlam was a nice feather in that story. Quite the long time for the payback too, but I’d be invested. Will just watch on mute so the marks in the crowd booing the entire time don’t sully it.

     3. They have great chemistry together but no one wants another Reigns redemption story.

127. Enzo’s new shirt is terrible.

     1. Cross out new shirt

128. I haven’t been on the discussions in awhile…are people done w Jinder now after this week?

129. Cena’s promo here is something.

130. Highlight of the show was definitely Snoop’s dope video game ad.

     1. The Tag and Women’s Title matches were both good I thought. And Bray/Balor too. Rest underwhelmed.

131. Cena’s so checked out here. And I would be too having to cut this ball washing promo on Reigns.

132. Raiders getting spanked by the Skins.

133. This promo is just too much to the point its embarrassing. How many “pass the torch” moments does Reigns need?

134. Anyone going on the Cruise of Jericho?
