It's unbelievable Cole is still employed. He was awful all night, that was just the cherry on top. After 20 years he still has no idea how to announce wrestling like it's sports entertainment. He's not a ****ing impartial news anchor.

Bianca showcased so much impressive stuff there. An incredible rare combo of strength/athleticism/technique. Good for her.

Anyway, yeah she does need to stop crying, but I was into that win. Good match. Certainly enough good stuff on tonight's show to keep me engaged going into tomorrow night.

**** I missed the botch. What did he say?

Bianca is very impressive btw. I know Sasha is fairly small, but that girl has major strength

Not only did Cole say ‘Sasha kicked out’ but he just reiterated it like 3 times over. Long after the match had ended lol. He somehow had no clue

Wtf? Why?

Yeah, I am certainly much more appreciative of the two night format than the 7 hour single night bullshit where you want to die after hour 4

I mean...he didn't have a reason.

I understand what caused him to anticipate a kickout. Bianca hooked a leg and had Sasha rolled way up in a way that often precipitates a kickout. Plus it's WrestleMania, so there's a minimum quota for dumbass kickouts. So in terms of his initial botch, I get it even though it's really bad. The fact that he kept doubling and tripling down is beyond me.

I do enjoy the thought of Vince backstage just losing his **** over it. But it sucks for Bianca that her big moment was partially ruined on the TV broadcast.

Can we talk about that hair whip though, that was one of the most gnarly sounding things I've ever seen in wrestling.

Sasha had a nasty mark on her too. Really iconic moment and I'm glad they saved it for the finishing sequence and didn't have her doing it a lot on shows before that.

Pretty sure it's already going viral on social media.

The hair whip is ****ing amazing.

So glad audience is back. We are still at the point I think it should only be done with open roof. Funny enough that led to a delay. This year in a nut shell.

On a kayfabe sense bad bunny winning is lol. But bunny brought it so hard I am fine with it.

Shane's writing was weak. I mean obviously Braun has to win. I don't know old school steel cage matches kind of suck. A lot of the match comes down to someone trying to desperately escape.

Belair might be the EST when it comes to physical attributes. She still has work to do when it comes to promos.

Her hair is crazy. For most of the match it was a handicap. (In a real match obviously it would). But man that hair whip was brutal

So I feel like Edge wins tomorrow (today). But this is a long build towards Bryan winning the Royal Rumble and the title in the next WrestleMania.

Glad there's a thread for this. I'm on a rare trip to Vegas and missing the wrestling shows this weekend.

Sounds like it was nothing too exciting, but decent overall.

Assuming Peacock has it on some sort of replay feature, I'll catch up next week. Good thing I'm too drunk to remember what the results are that I just read in this thread minutes ago.

Night 1 was much better than expected, very strong show.

Considering Drew/Lashley went on first, so they didn't end the show on a heel win, it would seem DB is only in the match so Roman could lose the title without being pinned. It almost seems TOO predictable to be right though.

If they want to send the crowd home happy and DB isn't winning, what's the ME going to be?

The Main Event is the triple threat. That's been confirmed. So either DB is winning or the crowd isn't going home happy.

In related news, Edge has drawn #2 for this year's Royal Rumble.

heh touché

I think Edge is popular enough even in this heelish role that him winning would send the crowd home semi-happy, but it's hard to tell with no crowds. This is what I expect to happen, then he loses to Roman at next PPV.

I'm a little less excited for night two, just because Orton/Bray could be really bad and the Nigerian Drum Fight might be some hokey kind of racist deal. Tonight runs more of a risk of losing the crowd I think, but hopefully everyone overdelivers.

In for night two, more interested with seeing what the weather is like.

Missed the last few matches last night, seems like they were both decent. I will have to catch up.

Just finished round 1. Pretty entertaining. Loved Omos. Interested to see what develops there.

Most tilting thing would have to be the counting of Cesaro's spins. ****ing 23. They'd count every 50-75% revolution.

Belair vs Banks was great, really solid. That hair whip is an iconic moment
