I'm now watching the show. Gotta say, the Armory reminds me of the Hall of Justice (at least the one in the Arrowverse) lol. Anyways, nice sized crowd. Let's see what they have in store for us...

The jokes are coming in steadily, only 11 mins in.

Santana v Trick is official, as predicted. No way they do anything other than crown Mike now.

Also... Hotch doesn't care that Agent 0 attacked a woman? Then again, I guess they dropped that entire arc because "I was playing you!" as if it means Ali didn't choose to do all that stuff... lol

Ngl Kaz vs Cardona is feeling like one of those matches they throw in a taping, just to kill time and get two regulars on tv.

Ryan catching strays was funny af tho

Lmfao did they move stuff to the side of the table? I should have known, someone is definitely going through the table.

Also nice, Masha v Ash at Victory Road. What happened to Jacy though?

Ali segment was very good, nice production values. I just can't cheer for "The System" though lmfao...

Knockouts triple threat was good. I like that Luna isn't cartoonishly evil or anything like that.

Also, just realised. Hannifan didn't preview matches during the first match aired. They do it between breaks anyways, might as well keep it like that.

Hmm "The Cleanse" VBD part 2? Would Joe Doering be able to come back? I wonder...

Holy shit. Matt said "twist of fate" and the crowd actually chanted it back to him. They never do that. I feel like I've witnessed history.

Main event was okay. I don't really care about Hardy matches in 2025 ngl. Good ending though.

I think the ep as a whole was very decent. The segments were good. The wrestling was about the same as it usually is on the weekly show. Things are coming together for Victory Road + BFG. Honestly I won't be surprised if Hardys v Team 3D does end up being for the titles though lmao.
