It was a great debut for Penta, IMO.

Gable got in enough offense to not look like a schmuck, still look good in defeat, and make Penta look strong in victory.

It also wasn't a fuckload of big move spamming, so when he hit his kicks, they looked painful, when he hit the destroyer, it felt like a big move, etc. And I love that they had him go with the arm-breaker.

Plus, Penta being such an over-the-top showman, WWE is a great place for him to show off.

I also liked the fact that they recognized him being TNA champ, King of Kings winner, and even a Lucha Underground champ (definitely didn't expect that one).

Penta match was great. Royal Rumble announcement promo with Seth/Punk/Drew was good, some quality chirps there.

I see the Netflix deal means brand rosters don't matter at all, lol

The Nia/Bayley/Rhea one not as much...but mostly that's just because of Nia. Her mic work is atrocious nine times out of ten. Tozawa and Otis cracked me up just during Rhea's walk in though.

Sami/Miz was decent.

Priest/Balor was surprisingly good IMO. That stretcher shove into the ring worked flawlessly, not sure how they pulled that off so well. Was expecting a botch when it went sideways and Finn ending up on the floor.

Interesting to see they had Oba there. Wonder when they'll move him to the main roster.

Did Dom ever find Liv's bags?

Pretty sure getting McAfee was part of the Netflix deal, just like them shaking up the roster with a "transfer portal" just to make sure Netflix got the names they wanted on their cards.

Pat has a bigger footprint than Cory Graves.
Cory is a bit salty about it too. Wonder if this is going to get him heat.

I feel bad for the guy - he seems like an alright dude.

But he still gets to go home & fuck Carmella, so he's not doing *that* bad. lol
I dont feel bad for the scumbag.

Sure, he pulled Carmella... but did so while cheating on his wife... who he had kids with... who were Carmella fans. lol

Like, I get the appeal of trading up for someone like that... but dont do it via cheating on your existing family. Have the balls to leave first.
