    The women’s rumble was the highlight of the entire show for me. The men’s started slow but got better, IMO.

    Edit: I forgot to mention Chelsea Green was a fucking trooper, she was very entertaining, and the best thing that ever happened for her was Piper bullying her way to the tag championships with Green, they are gold together.

    Logan Paul continues to be impressive, Kevin Owens may just bring out the best in him, wasn’t a big fan of the finish but if they want to push it to a final match at Mania it was for the best.

    Roman again proves he needs interference to win a match, I’m so tired of this, I hope Cody gets to “finish the story” and that Rock isn’t involved.

    Now to the press conference…

    Cody handled the Vince question like a PR guy… On the other hand, Triple H should have kept his stupid mouth shut because it made him look stupid and like he doesn’t take it seriously.

    Mishandling the post-show doesn’t make him guilty of anything… but, damn the guy had three days to come up with something other than no comment, and he still couldn’t just say no comment. I’m still in the camp without an investigation or the court going to discovery and the names coming out I can’t demand he be fired without evidence, but I can say that if it were me making the decisions going forward TKO should have a PR guy handle the post shows, hell make Cody EVP again to do it. His response soured my defending of him until more is known, but I’m not ready to toss in the towel yet, but yeah, it wasn’t great.

      Have to agree with this. A lot of people gave Tony Khan shit for how he handled many of his press conferences in a PR manner, but ultimately it’s the only way you can do in this instance and trying to deflect just isn’t a good look. Cody handled it better than his boss.

      My only real criticism of the women’s rumble is that it probably wasn’t the best place to debut Jade Cargill. Unless she’s improved significantly (which is entirely possible) she’s still likely a bit green to be carrying a rumble.
