    Holy shit. This ladder match has been off the charts.

    Adam Cole, Babyyyyyy!

    Ricochet is really entertaining. Those wrestlers put their bodies through hell. Would love to see the posters making fun of Wrestling in the Conor Mcgregor thread go through that.

    Love the ending of the tag team match. Strong turning on Dunn and then joins Undisputed Era.

    The crowd ate it up.

    Burning more bridges than Sherman's March through Georgia. Apparently, he no-showed a pair of events this week.

    Thought the ending of the Almas match was really clever, great spot with the valet. Wonder if hes coming up Monday or Tuesday and if they see him as everything del rio could’ve been, or if he’ll flounder like Roode sort if has.

    Vega’s a heat magnet I think Almas has a ton of main roster potential.

    And yeah Gargano and Ciampa, goats. Even AJ will he hard pressed to top that tomorrow

    The problem with guys like Almas and Roode is that the WWE right now has almost too much talent. They aren’t doing a good job building non-title feuds, especially on Smackdown, and you can only have so many people going after the titles they have.

    And the folks tonight will have to be on their game to live up to the ladder match and Gargano-Ciampa. The ladder match was a spotfest that worked really well, and the storytelling in Gargano-Ciampa was off the charts.

    Gargano/Ciampa was outstanding. Loved the use of Ciampa' knee brace in the STF to end the match.

    Agree with you guys, the main roster will have their hands full to top Takeover.

    Read this somewhere else but its a great point, people like to say you cant be a heel with smarks who will cheer ironically and ruin the show.

    Look how the smartest crowd in New Orleans treated Ciampa. Its about story telling.

    Odds thats a work for total divas tho?

    Doubtful because she's not a cast member. And she wouldn't push away a non-WWE/Divas camera if it was a work.

    The bigger question is how is she still employed with the WWE?
