Oh God, he revived his Macho Man elbow. Punk, stop. If you could do it 80% as well as Randy Savage, the tribute would be worth it. But it's the worst move in your arsenal. It's not a tribute; it's a reason for the crowd to be uncomfortable.

This match's too long and has fallen flat

Agree with the negative comments about the match. (I guess I made one of them, but that's a more general Punk complaint.) Clearly Hobbs isn't going over, so make this a lot more concise.

I've been assuming the main event was Mox/Kingston vs Suzuki-gun.

Up your "not a fan" game so that you only hear Right to Censor music blaring in your head while he comes down.

I'm always quite surprised that Taz has lasted so long as a commentator, given that he has a fairly grating voice.

Luchasaurus is so over, I love it. He is an actual dinosaur.

Gallows, you need to retire even harder than Jake Hager does.

I always find it amusing that he just took that name that they derisively chanted at him when he first appeared on Lucha Underground.

I hate that spot. It looked much more like a Luchasaurus counter than an Adam Cole move. But it was the start of the sequence to beat Luchasaurus? Pass.

And yeah, this.

I liked that match a lot. My only real complaint was the stupid Gallows interference.

From the Rocky book of "Smell - LA LA LA LA LA" which came from Foley making fun of him during promos.

(Also far and away the worst part of Rock's catchphrase.)

What dumbass belt was Gallows wearing? He doesn’t have a belt.

Edit: ohhhh, it’s the Impact tag belt

I like how Papa John's is still a viable pizza company despite selling far and away the worst mass-market pizza out there. Are they funding their ad campaigns through a pyramid scheme?
