    Helluva ladder match. Truth gets his WrestleMania Moment.

    Miz has now won tag belts with six different partners -- Truth, Morrison, Show, Cena, Sandow, Shane.

    That's gotta be a record. I know Seth and Rey each had five.

    Why was the female ref grabbing at Priest's leg when he was trying to climb the ladder?
    Looked like some kind of cue, but it was hard to tell for what, and she was doing it so obviously that it almost looked like she was trying to interfere in the match.

    Does anybody really give a shit about this LWO match? These guys could do a 720 Hurricanrana off the top of the scoreboard at Lincoln Financial and I'm not sure it'd get more than mild applause.

    The bottom of the ladder had buckled/was starting to break. Looks like she was concerned about it busting under Priest's weight.

    I suppose they needed an Eagles pop in there somewhere, but I figure we'd get the heel win there, with Carlito turning. Guess we'll have SmackDown for that.

    That makes sense. Thought it might've been that when the announcers started pointing it out. She damn near grabbed Priest's leg and yanked him off the ladder, though.

    They don't include Kane vs. Taker as notable brother duels. Is nothing sacred?!?!?

    Yeah, I noticed that too. I’d forgotten about the Hardys against each other at WM.

    Ladder match was its usual fun. Other matches have been OK, but it doesn’t seem like they’re in high gear. Usos especially should have been an all-out brawl with high spots. Nope.

    Wasn't a five-star special, but Jade looked good with limited touches. She just needs some reps with decent competition after basically getting the Goldberg treatment in AEW, defending her title against a bunch of jobbers. Her best match there was when she finally faced someone decent -- Statlander.

    That entry by Sami was amazing from the first step.

    But they're going to have Gable turn heel on Sami, aren't they?

    That IC match: holy shit! That was straight Rocky vs. Drago right there in Philly. And Samantha's voice cracking in her announcement.

    Unbelievable.
