It's a pretty good sign that they've overdone the "Sami jobs to everyone" thing when I can't even find it in me to hope that he beats the old-timer. Like, just put Jericho over. Whatever.

last match Zayn won was vs. Kevin Owens (current champ) in the "biggest match of his career"

WWE booking in a nutshell

On the bright side for Zayn, at least it was 100% clean.

They should speed these things up by omitting like half of these between match videos.

To be fair Zain looks like he's gained like 20 lbs of fat since getting called up. Not a great look.

Unfortunately they can't because they still sell these on PPV. I get that there are areas in the country that don't have Internet fast enough to be able to stream the Network, but who is spending good money for these brand specific PPVs

That was a slick moonsault from Charlotte.

Charlotte is so much better than every other woman's wrestler on the roster. Holy crap is she fantastic.

Ending was meh. Good match otherwise.
Edit: Liked the ending better on replay.

That result would set up fine if they wanted to do Sasha vs. Bayley as an undercard feud and then send someone else after Charlotte, but I don't know who they would send after Charlotte. Please don't let it be Dana.

At a certain point you have to do something with Nia Jax. That's at least an interesting-ish feud...maybe.

Heel vs. heel? I dunno. I would think Emma might be a possibility, but it would be a shame to turn her face. There are only two viable faces, and their most natural trajectory now is to scrap it out with each other.

Rusev should be awesome. But he's not. Is it because they never give him a decent story, or because he sucks?

You must be getting some weird alternate feed where Rusev isn't constantly oozing greatness.

It's too early to say he sucks--he's been stuck in limbo since WM 31. (Ziggler feud followed by League of Nations). He seems to be better in this feud, so maybe we are seeing how good he really is (or isn't).
