    Did the ref utter a slur toward Bobby Lashley?

    If you're putting the comedy act over to work with another off beat thing in the Wokens do you really need Ziggler in there to "make it legit" ? Id contend no. Dolph and Drew can get shine away from this zany comedy tag scene easily enough.

    And I like a B team Woken program. Matt foreshadowed it when he said the winner would be deleted. I think we're getting a long term story of bray and Bo in the lake together and I think it'll be good.

    I skipped nearly the entire segment. I just don't care about the storyline.

    Man, I cannot wait for this to be over. Let's hope it ends at Money in the Bank. I imagine Zayn gets squashed in about a minute or two.

    The thing with Finn and the special olympians was really cool.

    And as a Finn fan it makes me feel like they’re invested in him. They’re not burying a guy they use as an ambassador for stuff like that. Its a sign they see him as a long term top guy.

    Finn, currently, bores me like few wrestlers have ever bored me. What, exactly, is his gimmick? Super-toned little dude who is pro-LGBT? He can work, I know. But I'm just not seeing it. Then again, I yawn every time I see Sami Zayn on my television screen. Viva la El Generico!

    I think the creative team is more at fault here than Finn.

    I dont disagree with this. I think its part of the real sports and less character thing and I think the same could be said of Reigns, Styles and Rollins. Theyre good in ring performers who dont cheat and dont have a traditional “gimmick.”

    I dont know how I feel about it. But I’ve liked Finn for a while and I still do, even though I agree a lack of distinct characterization has hurt his main roster standing
