    This Young Bucks controversy is ridiculous. A bunch of WWE marks complaining about one sequence without the context of what happened before or after. How can these people so confidently tear down a product they don't watch? The match even? It's not a serious spot. Wasn't on Friday and it wasn't the other times they've done it. Hope they never see the ten boot spot, but I'd guess they'd actually have to watch to criticize it instead of seeing a random GIF on Twitter from the biggest show of the year. To watch a match as f---ing insane as that tag match, only to cower under the guise of "storytelling" or "psychology" as a defense for why it didn't work is so absurd. Enjoy your eight minute Raw matches with half of them being comprised of rest holds. At least it's "believable", right?

    Great little bit where Jericho perfectly describes why this is the best angle right now. He also roasts Brock and i think he may be drunk. @NJPWBros

    Yo @NJPWBros

    I'm wearing my Tokyo Pimps shirt today. About an hour ago I was playing pool on campus and I notice someone standing near me. I took my headphones out to see what's up. He said "You watch New Japan?" I said yeah, which he then proceeded to hold up too sweet, and obviously I joined in. We then talked about why more wrestling fans aren't so open about liking wrestling, indie guys who are good, and how s-----y WWE is right now for about 10 minutes.

    That was the first time I met another wrestling fan from wearing a wrestling-related shirt. Pretty cool.

    Will do bro

    That first tag match really that good??? Which show was that on I'll have to check it out

    I got AJ/Finn at 4.25...it was a good North American match but I can't justify anything higher after what I've seen this year, and Cena/AJ was better and I got those at 4.5

    @NJPWBros

    You can clearly see how charismatic Cody is and how WWE creatives clearly failed to see that or make a good use of that.

    Hoping for Ospreay. I know Kenny wants that match.

    Marty Scurll/Takahashi - 3.75
    The Young Bucks/Hangman Page/Cody vs MCMG/Johnathan Gresham/Jay White - 4.25
    Ospreay/Flip Gordon - 4.5
    Omega/Yoshi-hashi - 3.75

    Hoping for anybody at this point.
