I think greats a bit of a stretch, Lynch saved it as it lurched from mediocre to dull

How many shots to the dick did AJ take in 2018?

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Mon 28 Jan 2019, 2:50 am

Two hour ore show, 5 hour show. Imagine being there for 7 hours

The action has been sloppier in the two women’s ones, which I think is due to the mix of rosters and far less experience and practise in there, but the story and drama has been better in each one so far and they manage to keep interest with good spots and fresh competitors.

I didn’t hate it and I enjoyed it in individual moments but there was a lot of not much happening, particularly in the early going

by Dr Gregory House MD Mon 28 Jan 2019, 3:15 am

Crowd are committing murder here on this match

by Dr Gregory House MD Mon 28 Jan 2019, 3:17 am

What the actual Frak is this?

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Mon 28 Jan 2019, 3:20 am

I’d love to say I enjoyed that and Rowan helping Bryan was a good twist, but I woke up to see him standing with Bryan

by Dr Gregory House MD Mon 28 Jan 2019, 3:21 am

That was a good-great match in front of a dead crowd with a hilarious finish, on that note I’m away to bed

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Mon 28 Jan 2019, 3:22 am

Half Time Heat is back for the Superbowl - the post match NXT brawl was all about a 6 man tag for half time heat

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Mon 28 Jan 2019, 3:39 am

Finn being presented as more of an equal to Brock than anyone has in quite some time

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Mon 28 Jan 2019, 3:41 am

Great finish. Balor hits the coup de Grace, but Lesnar kicks out and straight into a Kimura lock that forces the tap.

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Mon 28 Jan 2019, 3:43 am

Good Brock match, he clearly works well with fast pace opponents. Looks a vicious animal but sells for them and adds some drama. Needed to go 5-10 mins longer to be a really good match but it was definitely enjoyable

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Mon 28 Jan 2019, 3:49 am

Number one for Elias, like the chart topper he is

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Mon 28 Jan 2019, 3:51 am

Your winner is here, Curt Hawkins is looking in good condition and at the top of his game

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Mon 28 Jan 2019, 4:08 am

LETS GO HAWKINS rings out

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Mon 28 Jan 2019, 4:08 am

And he hides under the ring. He might find Hornswoggle, but I’m hoping there’s a laptop

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Mon 28 Jan 2019, 4:08 am

Rollins is 10

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Mon 28 Jan 2019, 4:10 am

Titus is 11. Will he slip?

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Mon 28 Jan 2019, 4:11 am

He jokes and nearly trips then doesn’t. Hawkins ooos his head out and Titus goes in to get him out

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Mon 28 Jan 2019, 4:11 am

Curt eliminates Titus! Then joe gets rid of him

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Mon 28 Jan 2019, 4:12 am

12 is Kofi

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Mon 28 Jan 2019, 4:12 am

12th Dumble and that apparently puts him 4th on the all time lost
