Bobby Fish (the third guy) tore his ACL last month and is out for several months.

Gotcha; thanks. I did see the poker imagery. I was just hoping to find out that she previously had some random moment as an actual background extra in Rounders or something.

I just don't know what to think about the Authors of Pain (other than their name sucks)

I'm still really curious as to why they dug up Ellering and put him with them.

The main thing to remember is that smacking their raised opponents off of each other before completing the simultaneous powerbomb is nearly as stupid as Chyna executing a handstand before the back elbow into the corner.

I don't want any of these teams to win. I want the AOP to go up to the main roster, I don't like the Undisputed Era, and I find Strong boring as hell. I'm sure it will be a good match, but meh....

Oh, I love Dunne, but Strong would have to win with him. If Dunne/Strong won and Dunne immediately turned on him I'd be ok with that. :-)

I swear as soon as I read that I thought they should go the other way with the third guy hurt.

Ok.... I can get on board with Strong turning on Dunne, if Strong is capable of selling his joining the Undisputed Era (I don't think he is). I don't like Strong as a character, but he and Dunne should be able to go in the ring.

I just don't see how Strong sells "I was gonna win, but I'd rather hang out with these winners than be champion". Maybe they will emphasize his ROH time or something.

Watching that match I realized I don't dislike the Undisputed Era, I just REALLY HATE Kyle O'Reilly.

The weird thing with that gif is, the no-sell kind of works. The guy rolled through the landing so cleanly, I could actually believe it didn't hurt that bad.
