Nakamura has been doing the exact same things over and over and over for years now.

I remember being really excited when he first came over, but now I just want him off my TV anytime he shows up.

So stale and played out.

I realize we're not this lucky, but if Michael Cole retired, would it reduce the number of times we hear the announcers spam these painful secondary wrestler nicknames in during a match? I feel like it only ever registers in my ears when Michael Cole says them repeatedly, but maybe they're all doing it.

Matches like what we just saw and what we’re about to see (Corbin vs McEntyre) are why Wrestlemania does not need to be ten hours long.

In for Day 1 at least... So dumb that they spread this over 2 days...

I was gonna ask if that injury to Boogs was real, it sure looked like it. It actually worked really well and Shinsuke and Usos seamlessly closed of that match, great work from them

Yeah…you can’t make me watch Baron Corbin.

If Jim Beam was the only alcohol I would be a teetotaler, and if every match was a Corbin match I would never even consider tuning in to wrestling.

I guess if I was 8 years old I would have thought that was awesome.

So far these all feel like random matches I would see on Raw (assuming Raw has matches, haven’t seen an episode in years and years).

Well, they're quickly hammering through everything I don't want to see, so I'm going to maintain some optimism for the second half of the show.

What an odd choice of protected finishers, too - in no world should 1 End of Days be more powerful than 5 F-5s

Professional wrestlers are pretty bad at beating non professional wrestlers in wrestling matches.

This has been very poor so far. Logan Paul by far the best part of the show so far.
