Over/under on SCSA winning by stunner and the show going out in a flood of Steveweisers?

Well at this point it's not even a match, so theoretically a night of Mania is ending on a talk show segment.

Sigh. I was slower than most to become tired of the invincible booking of Charlotte, but that's irritating.

Thought the match was entertaining, all the overbooking at the end was a big mess though.

Gimmick ending in a WM match is lame.

Also, Duke lost; proof that there is a god.

Yeah, Duke/UNC finish was distracting me quite a bit there, but I still saw enough of the match to get a feel.

Nothing's touching Bianca/Becky for match of the night, but there's been quite a bit of good stuff, expectations exceeded overall. Hopefully the Austin thing is fun.

I was just thinking about Bobby Lashley the other day, it's gotta be quite tough when your gimmick is "insanely cut muscle freak." You've got basically no wiggle room with your diet for the majority of your wrestling years.

I'd definitely prefer a gimmick that allowed me to flab out every once in awhile.

Truly incredible. Top billing of nite one is a talk show segment.

Well Wiki said there was a random New Day match still to come, but I guess not. Glad we're just moving into KO/Austin.

I suppose if they were going to wreck Ronda/Charlotte with shitty booking then they couldn't put it last. Could have put Bianca/Becky last since that was a great feel-good ending, but in fairness I didn't anticipate it being quite that good myself.

What is this worthless attempt at a promo? Is he going for X-Pac heat?

As always, bagging on the host city or state, home sports team, etc., for televised wrestling is hacky. It's house show heel work for a worldwide audience.

Did not expect Austin to take a suplex onto concrete.

I really wish they didnt have to change camera angles EVERY SINGLE TIME during the rapid punch or kick sequences.

It's bad enough how many they do in general. Those spots it's just nauseating.

I was a teenager in the 90s, so you’d think this would be right up my alley, but watching an old slow guy throw slow kicks and punches isn’t doing anything for me.
