    I know they have some kind of plan here, but this is really making me nervous.

    Happy nothing bad happen. I was nervous, too.

    This may be great for Sami' career.

    That might have been one of the first matches I've seen where the crowd legitimately seemed to be rooting not for an awesome memorable spot, but for somebody not to die.

    They booed pretty loudly when Kevin started going down the cell. But, I get your point.

    Yeah, but while they were up there it seemed like the crowd was scared quiet. I know watching it I felt uneasy. Even some of the spots they did up there looked like they backfired a bit. Owens seemed to bang his ankle on the supports up top.

    So, I just watched it. I also was feeling kinda nervous about them taking those bumps on top of the cage. They looked awkward in a couple of spots, and I kept thinking that all it takes is some metalworker who was having a meh day at the office for someone to be permanently crippled or worse.

    Zayn turning heel and helping Owens is quite intriguing. They could become a not-quite as good two-man power trip and eventually fight Shane and Trips.

    Tag title match was also a lot of fun. Women's match was OK. Three-way was fine.

    I'm still not sold on Jinder, but he's working hard and at least he won semi-clean.

    Thank God they've reenforced the top of that cell huh? Sheesh.

    I hope Sami goes full super best friends with KO and they don't try some wishy washy "I did it to save Shane" thing.

    That tag cell match was ridiculous. Easy WWE MOTY candidate. That spot where they pinned one of the Usos in the corner with the kendo sticks weaved into the cell was sick.

    So no comments on tonight's Raw? I would have thought the official reunion of The Shield would have moved the needle a bit.
