I'm on episode 3 and I like how Triple H is really hands on. He knows where he wants the camera, what angle, everything. It's like Quincy Jones or a top movie director producing a masterpiece. One thing I don't like is that it's seems like the entire match is produced/scripted. I'd personally like a bit more freestyling in the ring. Obviously it takes chemistry to do that though.

See the problem?
I mean look, seeing it on paper in say November/December it makes sense as a main event...but if Roman is available (Or even Rock at this time and Cena is hanging about) then you know whats up. I think they could have let it main event over Seth/Roman with no belt but Punk knew what was up and made the smart pivot even if the match made no sense its still an attraction with all 3

The reaction to the Bruce Pritchard/Abyss thing on Twitter reminds me that a lot of wrestling fans are young folks who have never been in any sort of professional environment with expectations or protocol 
That was benign as fukk
And I'm the last guy to side with a WWE suit lmao

Gunther just isn't a WM main eventer to me. Is Punk vs Gunther at Summerslam setting the world on fire right now? Now imagine trying to sell that as a main event for the biggest event in wrestling. It doesn't even matter rhat it's a 2 night event.

The issue is, despite Abyss being in the ref's ear and relaying direction, once the performers are out there, it's on them to make it work (this is alluded to). So it's one of those things where it was out of his hands.
Could he have trimmed it beforehand? Sure. But I don't see the issue of expecting guys like Seth and Punk to make it work.
I also think it's bullshyt that the WWE doesn't have the freedom to go "over time" during a livestream on Netflix or whatever Bruce said. Sure, you might have certain sweet spots you want to hit to maintain the audience's attention (i.e. the 2.5 hours they are averaging per show now), but it seems clear that time is secondary to whatever the story at hand requires.

I mean, even Bruce ultimately just shrugged it off with a "shyt happens" reaction, I think it's as simple as Abyss putting pressure on himself and being disappointed it didn't go off without a hitch since he's still new to this.

To me, my board!
They've been pushing her for years..even when Sasha had the blue hair..the Mami stuff stuck this time after they welched on putting her over in the first Charlotte WM match.
They didnt give TWO fukkS about Bianca's so called undefeated streak..they didnt want to mention it. They've had everybody lay down for her except Stratton and certain NXT girls. Iyo has been so good shes gotten split chants with her..like Liv Morgan was getting.
Others would say the opposite, to be fair.
It is what it is. Just have to make a tough decision. But it's funny how it seemed quite easy for them to have Iyo pin Bianca at the event when they could have done the same with Rhea or whatever.
Ah well.
