What main events this show?

1) What's likely to be a highly entertaining MitB match or
2) Ronda's first singles match against a green ****

I’ll just say it, I’d rather watch someone’s grandmother on a stripper pole than a Last Man standing match.

Especially between these two. Nothing like taking two guys whose main attribute is speed, and making someone count to nine between each and every move.

Definitely remember instances on both Seinfeld and The Office where bleeping actually made a line a lot funnier.

That Styles Clash not being the ending is quite stupid.

Ok, that was a nice move (not the styles clash, which is still a transitional move)

Final sequence was great. Think the match was boring for far too long to be able to call it great in general.

HHH really needs to pay any price and bear any burden to make Styles vs. Kenny Omega happen.

Champ out first.

EDIT to add: “Champ’s prerogative to choose when they come out?”

Maybe Macho Man invoked this mysterious rule when the Mega Powers collided in WM 5.

Rousey looks so genuinely happy to be doing this. Hope she keeps that smile for a long time.

So you’re saying she’s found what Shawn Michaels lost all those years ago? (h/t to LKJ here as payback for all the Bella entrances over the years).

That, but she’s also been documented as having some mental issues as the end of her MMA career, so I’m just happy for her in general.

Also, this is a very very good match IMO. Rousey being tough enough to take the full power shots that most women can’t is making a ton of difference to how good Nia Jax looks.

Funny you should say that. I went to his live show last night and it was a great experience. Oscar from Men on a Mission started it off with a tap. Then Bruce came out and told a couple stories. Then Armando something or other came out and told some stories. Again really good stuff. Then, their main event was Pat Patterson. He came out and the crowd went banana. He sang What a Wonderful World and sounded just like Louie Armstrong, if Louie Armstrong was French Canadian. He then told some really funny stories and they ended it with My Way. What a fantastic show. If it comes to your city I highly recommend it.
