I think that’s the most surprised I’ve been watching WWE television in at least a month, if we count “Roman Reigns not winning at WrestleMania” as a surprise. Then it actually pays off, as Rusev sells on offense to remind us of the early match work, and it comes back with Bryan being able to torque the hand to escape the hold before it’s on. To say he “knows what he’s doing” is to say Jeff Bezos can afford to buy lunch, so you get cool stuff like him going after Rusev’s hand early in the match to keep the Accolade from working. I’m still so happy that Daniel Bryan’s able to compete in the ring again, and that he’s still competing at a high level. Rusev, which would need something like a double dick-kick to total collapse in a no disqualification WWE Championship match finish for me to Worst it. That leads us to qualifier number three: a little over 10 minutes of Daniel Bryan vs. I like every part of that sentence, except the implied part where Peyton Royce doesn’t also win. They didn’t really show their work, and we’re (as a general viewing audience) still not sure if she knows what she’s doing.įlair gets the win and redeems herself in a solid 13 minutes of in-ring action, and moves on to the Money in the Bank ladder match alongside Ember Moon. That’s why we’re having such a problem accepting Carmella. It’s also a great idea to show that Peyton Royce and Billie Kay are actually talented wrestlers as well, so they can believably carry their ends of feuds and not just be on-mic personalities. Charlotte’s your top female in-ring performer, assuming they’re gonna keep Asuka relegated to weird tag matches and Comic Sans MS cell phone promos that make her look like she’s in the opening credits of Clarissa Explains It All, so she needed this win pretty badly. God’s gift to pitch-perfect impersonations Peyton Royce ALSO over-performed, which Charlotte seriously needed after that Money in the Bank cash-in loss and then super clean goober loss to Carmella at Backlash. Monroe Sky’s conception and birth apparently helped him achieve his Perfect Form, and I’m incredibly into it.Ĭharlotte Flair vs. So yeah, welcome to UPROXX column number infinity about how The Miz is the ace of WWE and deserves to be showered with praise at all times. The guy couldn’t finish a match, even if he was wrestling the worst guy on the roster. It’s one of the reasons Jinder Mahal’s run didn’t work. If Miz is gonna be a top level guy again, he needs to be able to win competitive matches. It gets over The Miz as a ring general who is an asshole, sure, but not the kind of cowardly lower-card heel who needs, say, a team of jobber cronies named after him cheating to help him win every match. I especially liked the finish a lot, with Miz stealing victory from the jaws of defeat by taking a Swanton Bomb - almost always the end of a match - and countering Hardy’s tired pin attempt by hooking his rainbow arms and pinning him with a crucifix. Ladders) and Miz does, because Daniel Bryan didn’t, and that’s another three months of content. Hardy doesn’t need to get into the match (because he’s already got a championship, even though he’s Mr. The best of the matches was probably the show opener, which saw regular 2018 show-stealer Mike the Goddamn Miz defeating United States Champion Jeff Hardy.
