    I think it was the masked man show... but they mentioned something I thought was cool.

    Owens/Zayn lose and get fired from Smackdown

    Kurt hires them for RAW

    Steph blows her lid because they beat up her dad

    They end up being fired from RAW

    They then return in a month and make run in's on both shows, cause havoc as a "nwo" style crew made up with KO, Zayn and only with a "mystery" member that is later revealed as Daniel Bryan.

    I loved the idea

    Just from the image without clicking play, Hall looks pretty good except for his old man face.

    Re-watching Nakamura-Zayn

    I’ve been to multiple national title games, a Final Four and the World Series

    Shit, I’ve been to two Manias, a Royal Rumble and the Survivor Series

    The crowd intensity for that match was better than all of them

    It’s on of my top 5-7 matches of all time. The crowd had a lot to do with it.

    never understood why Vince hitched his wagon to Rich Swann when Cedric Alexander is the most talented 205 live performer. Maybe this will finally push Cedric

    Wasn't it mostly because Cedric got hurt? I feel like he was getting a good push before that and then they moved to Swann, but I'm bad at remembering timelines.

    Is it weird to anyone else they keep calling Seth Rollins the Architect which is the moniker he gave to himself after he stabbed Reigns and Ambrose in the back and disbanded the Shield?

    I continue to be amazed at Jericho's ability to completely reinvent his character as needed while retaining the same high quality.

    He's the Gary Oldman of wrestling.

    Note to WWE......if you going to put in fake crowd noise, maybe don't simultaneously cut to a shot of the crowd doing nothing and showing no reaction. Bayley gets no reaction and 'Absolution' already getting basically no reaction.

    They did, it was actually a pretty good match, I just dislike romans finishers in general. For him being The “big dog”, they are weak as fuck.

    You know who the WWE really misses....Neville. It sucks they stuck him on 205 live and basically forgot him. They misused him from the very start.

    Clash of Champions sucks on paper. I just pray this is the end of Jinder Mahal. The main event has a ton of intrigue for me. I think Bryan is going to do a lukewarm heel turn, what I hope will happen is Shane and Orton do a heel turn. How weird would it be if Bryan and Zayn, WWE's most credible white meat baby faces outside of Cena, will likely both be heels come next Tuesday.
