Roman announcement is great obv, and the Batista thing was cool out of surprise value alone.....but this was another **** episode.
Some lowlights.
-The Revival lost clean for the second straight week to another NXT tag team. At least DIY were tag team champs who have beat them in the past. Yesterday they got squashed by a makeshift tag team of 2 singles guys for no reason. If you want to push the NXT guys great, have them squash any of the jobber teams out there. Why the **** are the revival champions? Most insignificant belt in WWE right now.
-The Ronda promo was really awkward and confusing. The proper way for the fans to rally behind Stone Cold Becky getting into the WM match is certainly NOT having Ronda Rousey demand Becky gets put into it by threatening the company otherwise. Not sure the point of this direction.
-Kurt Angle looked like he killed one of the Singh brothers with an extremely lazy german suplex. The guy immediately grabbed his neck too and it scared me.
-Braun Strowman had a match vs Lashley that just ended because.....why? Or never started? I had no idea what was going on there.
-Some ridiculous attempt to be funny but wasn't promo between the Ascension (they talk now?) and whatever Heavy Machinery is, I still don't understand whether they are a comedy act or a legitimate tag team threat.
-Alexa Bliss with random authority to make an intercontinental title match.
-Bayley squashing Nia Jax who could eat 4 Bayleys for breakfast.
