Not that I didn’t have some appreciation for them as a teen, but I certainly don’t lament the lack of bra-and-panties matches these days.

They are wanting to be family friendly but every 13 year old boy watching is looking up the GM in a threesome with the tuba player from new day?
Most of the women wrestle in basically bra and panties every match - whatever else has changed, anyone watching WWE Women wrestling for T&A are still getting their money's worth* imo.

And, as has been mentioned, there are some really hot women there no matter what your preference might be. For hotness and diversity, I think we're pretty much close to the best WWF/WWE has ever seen - or as good as it can get with no AJ Lee at least.

Call me crazy, but I just want to watch wrestling.

If you really want to see T&A, there are plenty of other venues for that.

The +EV of a more attractive woman is not zero, but it's far less than a compelling storyline and an ability to put on good matches.

I just want to see a good blood feud, not over the title, on the women's side that has the kind of heat and backstory of a Ciampa/Gargano variety.

I don't see this happening anytime soon. It's difficult enough to get them to write for the women and not insult our intelligence.

Apparently the PPV starts an hour earlier than usual - so around 25 minutes from now!

Watching the pre-show on stream as don't have the network anymore. Hopefully, it will still be streaming for the main show.

another dimension of Ronda. Her and Brock are the only two that when I think they're upset that they can kill their rival.

THIS IS ****ING GREAT!!! Best opening segment in years!

Turn off RAW now and it's the best of the year.

Yes yes I enjoyed parts of that, Some of it could have been the usual better.

Followed by a reasonable promo by Ronda? nice.

I was being hyperbolic, of course. But that segment was way way way above average for an opening segment. It was short and sweet. The briefcase shots on Kurt were...sad. The judo throw on Kurt was incredible.

I'm a bit confused as to what exactly Seth is supposed to be burning down.

wow new ic champ and it's not Elias.

Having Seth lose via tight pulling is a great touch after he wins that way last night.

Was the point of that to get sympathy for KO?

That little backstage interaction feels like it makes it a lock for Sasha to turn on Bayley tonight.

I watched the first bit but it was mostly horrible talking/promos from the women.

Sanity wrestled the uso's, Jeff Hardy challenged Nakamura so both of that was a lil interesting maybe.

Daniel Bryan match and then I turned it off,lol.

Missed Rusev and Miz which going by a report it was good and the end of Smackdown was way better than the first hour.

The Gauntlet match is def worth checking out. Very good wrestling, storytelling and character work from everyone involved

Went back and watched the gauntlet match. Very, very good. What's great is that nobody really lost credibility.

Bryan looked like a survivor.
Big E looked like a legit threat.
Joe looked great and had a bit of a fluky loss.
Miz only lost because he got cocky.
Rusev won the thing.

I despise the entire concept of gauntlet matches, especially if there is anything significant at stake. So I skipped it.
