    That powerbomb in the corner looked bad, like she hit more head than back to begin with. Didn't look as bad on the replay, though, thank God.

    It was (technically). Hence why it was no-DQ and the other faces were allowed to interfy.

    Heel turn, and here comes the Horsewomen showdown.

    Unless they shake things up, they need some new blood to face Asuka, especially if Charlotte and Becky are busy with the Horsewomen. Lana and the Iconics? Really?

    Other than the spear, nothing special from that match. I don’t understand people marking out for that jump from Becky from the ladder on Charlotte.

    I think the thing there was that the table didn't break at first. So, instead of jumping through the table, she jumped on top of it and had the abrupt bounce.

    It was a big spot, but I also think the fact it looked extra stiff because of the table not breaking was what brought out the chant.

    It was well booked but not really “special.” The whole show kinda was.

    More face wins on the undercard than expected, I guess because Ambrose and Bryan were going over clean. Bryans shoulders may have been down in a dbl pin but doesnt seem like thats the angle theyre going with.

    But why was there a pin instead of a ladder climb?

    Because you don't have to climb the ladder in a TLC match. It's just part of the plunder. It's just an option that exists for them to hang something above the middle of the ring.

    Or, if you'd prefer, Vince just can't keep up with logic.

    Wasnt it weird there were no toys in the Rollins Ambrose match? It helped make the womens match feel more special but it definitely killed Seth and Deans heat. I imagine Seth goes into and possibly wins the Rumble now so its not like theyre saving a gimmick match blowoff later....

    Who is going to be named the new GM tonight?

    Any ideas?

    No spoilers.
