    Until tomorrow when Rhea Ripley gets eliminated by Dana Brooke, and Ciampa is pinned in 5 seconds by Braun Strowman.

    I hate the brand counter.

    Its clearly going to be 2-2-2 going into the main event, so its way too easy to call the winners of the IC/US/NA and 3way womens match.

    Keith Lee is a made man. Pinned Rollins and went toe to toe with Roman.

    I had no guess that they would make Lee the last man for NXT. I figured it would've been Ciampa all the way.

    One thing this whole storyline has done is built up the NXT stars majorly. Cole, Lee, Ciampa and Baszler have all looked awesome.

    Ripley, too. Now that they've got WarGames and Survivor Series behind, I think this is where they'll go full bore toward Ripley/Baszler.

    And so they're main eventing with the women's three-way? Seems like an odd choice, unless they've got something strange coming out of it.

    Umm, Rey? Is that mask a Bozo the Clown tribute, considering they're in Chicago?

    Couldn't figure out if that was:
    1) A Doink tribute
    2) A Joker homage
    3) Bozo the Clown
    4) Signaling a heel turn as Mini-Fiend

    Bayley wins this last match to tie it up with SD and NXT, and then there's a sudden-death tiebreaker involving some sort of surprise debut? John Morrison? Punk for the massive pop?

    Our we get Ronda (since they keep mentioning her) to put in motion the Horsewomen showdown?

    Kind of can’t believe that match didn’t go on last. It was really really good.

    Only question I have: If it was Roman and Seth left alone at the end, would Chicago have actually rooted for Roman?!? It was trending that way.

    I think so. Even as Roman pinned Lee, there wasn't a whole lot of push back. But I know they hated Seth pinning Ciampa.
