The main event was so boring I began watching AEW.

If NXT has one flaw for me it's that babyface NXT champions get horribly short and underwhelming title reigns, with Balor and Neville being the exception. I'm sad that Keith Lee got added to that list, especially considering how great of an NA champion he was.

Babyfaces are always more interesting when they're chasing the title. It's always been like that. Keith Lee chasing the title is more interesting than when he's the champ.

They showed the replay of Bryan vs. Cena from Summerslam 2013 and it got me to thinking.......today if Bryan loses a match even if it's a big one, it's no big deal. I was completely fine when he lost to AJ Styles in the finals of the IC Title and before that at Wrestlemania 36. He's in a position now that if he loses a match today, no big deal, he's not going to lose his spot. 6 years ago, it would be a different story. So when he comes back and loses a match, we should all be fine with it.

I enjoyed AEW Dynamite last night.

 

[DarthSkywalker]

I loved XXX. A really good show, even in this environment. The opener was great, the ladder match was fantastic, Cole/McAfee was surprisingly really good, Io/Dakota was very good and I really liked the main event, though you could tell something went wrong. I hope Kross is okay. I was happy with both new champs. Priest has grown on me a lot and I am assuming Keith has been called up. If Keith hasn't been called up that is weird and they really shouldn't of had the match. Kross couldn't lose.

 

[DarthSkywalker]

Sasha and Bayley's faces as they entered the arena tonight were perfect.

 

[DarthSkywalker]

Broken Sonya is pretty flippin' awesome.

 

[DarthSkywalker]

Auska is amazing.

The Sasha/Bayley break up begins!

 

[Dr. Evil]

Sonya needs to take as much time off as she needs. While there are people who think she'll be back at the Rumble, I am not sure about that. It depends on the guy who stalked her and how long his trial is going to be and the verdict. I don't think she comes back by the Rumble or from the WWE period if the guy gets a light sentence. If the guy gets life in prison without parole, we could see her back at the Rumble. They would have to figure out how she got her job back in WWE.

I cannot believe Lee is getting called up. That's the man right there just not enough people realize it yet.

 

[Dr. Evil]

I am hoping Roman drops the vest and has new music.

I heard that Mandy was also in the house that night. If that is true, is she really going to stick around, or are they going to run an angle where Sonya beats her down on SD and they are both gone for a bit. Either way, I feel terrible for both of them. Both are at career peaks, finally really getting traction in the WWE, and this awful thing happens to them. I hope they are both able to get through this okay.

Keith Lee dropping the title after a month...not a fan. I get that he's getting the call up, but I'd rather they at least give him a week or two after (a la Kevin Owens) to keep the title, but I get it. I don't like it, but I get it.

Sasha losing her singles titles on her first defense has to be an inside joke to Vince. It's ridiculous. I get that they are moving forward with the "Bayley/Sasha feud", but it's just silly to keep yanking titles from in a month.

Glad they got the title off Strowman, but, ugh, Roman's here again.

Orton/McIntyre was pretty good. Weird ending, but pretty darn good.

I want to see Mandy face Bayley as I am tired of Carmella, Dana Brooke, Alexa Bliss, Nicki Cross, Naomi, Lacey Evans and Tamina being the only ones who can face her.

 

[TheVileOne]

I hope Sonya Deville will come back at some point, really seemed like she was about to break out this year.

 

[Dr. Evil]

If you watch her YouTube channel, she's great there and this is likely her Kana side creeping out a bit. If she didn't have that channel, I would have been thinking "why is she doing this?" but due to her channel, this is par for the course.

 

[Lobo]

I liked the Roman that showed up at Summer Slam. He needs to drop the vest. We've all seen how ripped he's gotten via Insta.

 

[Calvin Ellis]

That's it I'm challenging Cody and John Moxly to a triple threat match. Winner gets Brandi and Renee.

I am very happy with Kross and Asuka winning, the issue was how they handled Keith and Sasha imo. I get why it happened with both. Keith, they wanted him to hold the title before he got called up and they though Kross crushing Cole wouldn't have the same effect, with both being heels. I get that they put the belt on Sasha to try and pop a rating and the idea was always to put it back on Asuka. But it just didn't feel right how they ended up doing. I am just hoping that at least with Sasha, she gets a nice long reign once she dethrones Bayley, and it includes a feud with a returning Charlotte where she goes over repeatedly.

Gotta say: Keith Lee's RAW debut...not great. Sasha losing to Asuka AGAIN...not great.
