    Only way I could see that better is if Claudio was still in WWE and they made that a 4-way between the four biggest Euro ass-kickers.

    I’ve often thought that Miz is a modern-day Larry Zbyzsko. Someone who has a very safe in-ring style, can fill any spot on the card from opening match to main event, yet can generate such heat with his mouth.

    Piper was more iconic. You don’t want him opening the show.

    Two more matches on the card after the women, and about 2.5 hours until midnight.

    We still have the Hall of Fame intros, likely something with Lashley and/or Knight, and shenanigans with Miz.

    Still, even with all the complex introductions they'll have for the last two matches, I'm guessing at least 40 for each of the those matches.

    Kinda surprised there. They've given so much attention to Asuka's new persona, that I thought they'd have her continue the momentum.

    Unless they give Bianca a Roman-esque reign, who believably steps up to her? Do they transfer Charlotte over? Try to heat Bayley back up? There's nobody in NXT I could believe would pull off the Paige/AJ style shocker.

    Ok, McAfee was one thing.

    But Shane? Fuck.

    I don't know what the the hell that whole segment was (if Shane's injury was legit, or it was a red herring all along), but at least we got the Rock Bottom everybody thought might come at the LA WrestleMania.

    I got the feeling the Shane injury was legit but that Snoop was always scripted to get involved and they just audibled him in earlier than they had planned after Shane went down.

    Two minutes into this match and Edge is already showing some wear and tear on his back.
