WWE top dog babyface booking has literally always been trash for at least as long as I've been alive. I think Bret Hart is the only certified top guy in the Wrestlemania era who didn't have a true power up sequence/limit break/Hulk up or just stopped selling when it was time to win (and his five moves of doom still *almost* managed to function as a hybrid of the two styles). Even borderline top guys like Sheamus had that trait as part of their face world title reigns. So yeah, it really is much more of a booking problem than anything else.

TAMINA had to challenge for the title in 2020 because they didn't have anyone else, let that sink in.

It's the formula that's been overused especially in WWE. The baby face getting owned for almost the entire match, and with one move out of nowhere he wins. They did it with Roman, and they did it with Cena, heck they were probably doing the same thing with Hogan in the 80s.

The thing I found funny was how a one Bryan Alvarez couldn't wrap his head around why they were doing wrestling moves when you had to remove your opponent's eye out. As people pointed out to him, you have to incapacitate your opponent so you can remove the eye with no interruptions. As someone pointed out in a video, it's like a ladder match.

Dolph doing the Rock Bottom on Drew was a reference to how the Rock said he would “sign off” on the decision to make Dolph champion

[@dylanogg347]

Here are two fun facts about the show: Shinsuke Nakamura was won a Championship at every Extreme Rules Pay-Per-View he's been at (and is 3-0 at the event for good measure). And the Baun Strowman we see watching the show is one of Bray Wyatt's illusions.

Braun expression in the thumbnail is literally everyone’s reaction to this PPV. What the hell did I just see?! Also did people really want a man to lose his eyeball?!

[@mageside]

Bray Wyatt is hands down the best at these cinematic matches, so much thoughtfulness and nuance are added to his match!

[@twig8523]

Pretty brilliant execution on the Rey vs Rollins match. A unique & interesting focus that hasn't been seen since the original Shiek was gouging eyes! Very cool update.

[@misfyt_mcfly3084]

My main reason for subbing your channel was for the classic reviews, but I have come to prefer your personality and delivery over that of other wrestling channels when it comes to ANY review be it classic or modern.

[@wstine79]

Braun will watch the Pay Per View from beneath the swamp.

[@ty1298]

I like when Braun can see the empty boat but he still leans in to get a closer look for some reason.

[@Ravenz91]

Kairi is so wholesome. God that Asuka finish was bonkers 😂😖 Happy for Nakamura though. Dolph definitely should have won.

[@davidburton2229]

Brays minions were cosplaying as Harper and Rowan. 15.00 no one expected Skarsgard to make a surprise cameo!!

[@JaySway17]

Pretty much agree with everything you said except for I personally loved the Swamp fight but I do understand the points you made. I think they were aiming for more of a mini psychological thriller/horror piece with narrative ties rather than the other way around.

the Firefly Funhouse made me think of Count Dracula because of the cape, his hair and the way Bray spoke

[@dbone3356]

It's funny that Seth threw up as a result of what he did, right before I was doing my best Vince McMahon impression yelling "He's gonna puke. He's gonna puke!"

[@ooo_Kim_Chi_ooo]

WWE jumped the shark, twice in one episode. That golfball for an eye was hokie as shit. You rated this match high as hell. How will anyone ever beat Drew now that we know he can take 10 finishers and just be like, nah!

[@joshpeters3803]

So in the Drew vs Dolph match, Drew didnt put Dolph through a table because of the fear of getting DQ'd, but in many singles matches in WWEs history, people get put through announce tables all of the time. WTF what is this logic

[@kc_oner]

Well, Drew did purposely attempt to put Dolph through the announce table so we can rule that out.

[@thealjohnsonshow2188]

+Josh Peters Well, there was that 1 time in 2013 where Ryback was disqualified for putting Daniel Bryan through a table.

[@briancrocker3377]

There is no logic. It's just the way it is. Ringposts, the announce tables are all fair game. The chairs the announcers sit on, the ring bell, those are out of bounds. They are, at least, consistant with these "rules". I can't remember anyone getting DQed from putting someone through an announcer table

[@davidsmith-th1kh]

I think the difference between Roman and Drew, is the WWE isn’t shoving Drew down our throats and forcing us to embrace him

[@kurtpaulsen6579]

Zane, the differences between One Night Stand and Sasha/Asuka are: 1. RVD/Cena was a no DQ match and 2. Unlike Bayley, Heyman was an actual authority figure and therefore had some reason to take over for an incapacitated ref.

[@danielhess1082]

i understand the story they were telling with Dolph and Drew, however, sending an opponent through a table, to my knowledge, isn't cause for a DQ. hitting someone with the table on the other hand does

[@alexdelarge703]

It’s similar to whipping someone into steel steps

[@danielhess1082]

@@alexdelarge703 exactly. that happens in regular matches all the time

[@alexdelarge703]

Daniel Hess I know, it’s ridiculous how inconsistent their rules are

[@heyyou9693]

I give this show a B. Matches were good to great. One negative from the show was the ending of Asuka and Sasha. If WWE doesn't address that miscarriage of justice, they have completely lost it. The swamp match was, was, was...what did we watch? It was a horror film. Good review, WWW.

@Jay Harv28 Compared to people like JDfromNY206 who constantly and consistently drops the f-bomb, yes it IS rare that Brian drops an f-bomb. He may say them in his videos, but NOT every millisecond. Simply put, Brian doesn't always do it. So, when he does, it IS rare that he does. But, hey, it is what it is. It's my story, and I'm sticking to it.

Poor Asuka. We have a great match between her and Sasha, but it of course has to end in a dodgy way. Can't catch a break with the mistreatment of Asuka.
