    I remember the show at MSG started with Triple H doing a rather random 20-minute promo to sort of explain things and eat up a TV segment.
    Hell, they did that two-hour gauntlet match on Raw last year. Find five or six guys and do another one that takes up the whole show, with the winner getting a title shot against the champion of their choosing -- Lesnar or the Fiend.

    They really need to release a video of the Fiend standing around the airport terminal reading a magazine, sipping coffee and scaring children while waiting for his delayed flight.
    Or just do a 24/7 of his entire journey back from Saudi Arabia where he never speaks yet somehow has to clear customs. Have Bray pop up to explain how a piece of contraband got in his luggage.
    "How did THAT get in there? Yowie wowie!"

    Shit, The Fiend should go up to the Crown Prince and tell him he’s not afraid of his death squads because he’s invincible.

    Wow. A rag tag SD broadcast crew of Tom Phillips, Aiden English and Renne Young.

    One way to eat up some time: Show clips of Crown Jewel.

    Heyman sounds like he’s having fun out there.

    And now they have Lesnar “quitting”
    Smackdown. How does that work?

    This is cute. Sounds like Renee Young is trying to be skew toward being the "heel" announcer.

    Yeah, and failing miserably.

    On the other hand, Basler is a nice surprise for Buffalo.

    Baszler, Riddle, Lee, plus Papa H and Uncle HBK --- I think we've got a full-fledged NXT invasion, which is amazing.

    I bet they had this planned in the coming weeks since they announced the NXT vs. Raw vs. SD match at Survivor Series, but they had to fast-track it.

    We’re getting Bryan vs. Cole, which is great, but I was just starting to get my hopes up for Bryan and HBK.

    Should be fun, though.

    HBK taking his jacket off and putting it right back on -- that was epic.

    Stephanie comes out, waves to her hubby, and McAfee is waving back to her as well. LMAO
