Jesus. It’s painful watching Taker, and even worse with a gassed Goldberg.
The botched Jackhammer, Tombstone reverse botch, botched Chokeslam finish was awful.
Looked like the earlier Tombstone was pretty close to being dangerously botched too.

Like even if it was treated as a stand alone show it'd be fucking shite but they've shoe-horned it in the middle of storylines for no good reason other than money. Even half the talent couldn't be arsed.
Word that they flew Alexa and Natalya out there too but the Saudi's changed their mind at the last minute about allowing them to have a match.

Watched the ‘Buy-In’/preshow of AEW last night. The individual talent was only decent (you can see why they were the preshow) but I quite liked The Librarian gimmick as a midcard heel schtick, and Sonny Kiss was entertaining but green as shit. Mostly though I just really liked the feel of it and the presentation. Can’t put my finger on it because the quality of the matches/segments wasn’t amazing but it definitely had something.
Also watching Extreme Rules. Preshow was eh. Nakamura/Balor the highlight but not as good as I hoped.
Main show has had two highlights so far: 1) Taker actually looking good again (relatively but still) after I thought he was on the brink of death in Saudi Arabia (maybe don’t wrestle in 100°F heat again against an old man who was awful in ring in his prime)
2) Renee Young audibly said “Shane’s fucked!” ...if you can find it on Twitter or wherever and tell me she’s actually saying something else then fair enough but at the time it 100% sounded like that.

I just got in so that might be biasing my opinion but I thought Miz TV with HBK and Ziggler was 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
If HBK has realised he doesn’t want that SA shitshow to be his last match and we get him vs Ziggler(eh)/Bryan/Styles then I’m in for that.
And Charlotte just got pinned by Ember Moon so presumably Bischoff is in charge instead of Vince finally.

Ziggler bit was good, just watching it now.
Mix shoehorning his brilliance in there too.

They've fucked up the fiend, probably given rollins all kinds of residual heat and handed aew thousands of new fans. I don't think saudi cash or tyson fury are going to paper over this car crash this time
