I never want to see Triple H do that BS on TV again. Not a chance in hell he would let any of what he did fly on his NXT Wednesday and I think it's a disgrace that he did that to the people working there tonight and treated the show the way he did. He should be better than that, even though I know he's not. Besides that, I enjoyed the show. Just, never again with HHH thinking he's funny by doing the cringiest stuff ever. I thought it was great, personally. Besides, the show needed a pick me up especially with all the crapgoing on in the world right now.

For the talent this was still a real show, no crowd, but they were still having matches and fighting to get wins. Fighting to get the winner's purse. Then you have your kinda boss out there tickling ass trying to get himself over. I just hated that. Just because you (HHH) don't care doesn't mean everyone else should. I loved the ending with Cena/Wyatt but Triple H practically told us this show isn't real, it's fake, none of it matters with how he acted. So I thought the difference in professionalism from the talent to the "professionalism" of HHH jarring to watch. Everyone but HHH did a good job to me. Because again, no way would he allow that much tickling ass and wink-wink-nudge-nudges to the camera on Wednesday. He's gonna have them treat that like a real show.

Cena's promo was so bad its not even funny. It was the same regurgitated script of, "I'm just a humble guy who works hard and doesn't ask for special treatment, but when I receive special treatment it's because I've earned a fake spot in a predetermined sport and literally everyone else is a lazy, cowardly, weak, little b*tch." Cena's used it over and over again, usually against the "indie" guys. It never does anything for the build, buries talent, and what's worst, his opponents never counter anything he says and always lose in the end. I gave Cena credit for us not seeing him job out Bray for the title (hence the 'Berg Incident), but god d*mn tonight steamed me.

This is scripted, sports entertainment - and tonight/last night was nothing more than training matches. Literally nothing that happened, mattered... and Hunter actually made it entertaining. Could you have imagined that with Michael Cole by himself? Ugh.

Could you have imagined that with Michael Cole by himself? Ugh. I aware. But for me, I don't like the blend of these guys fighting in the ring to win matches for their career, from an in-canon standpoint, to what Triple H was doing. Like if this was any real professional sport, the commentator wouldn't be making a joke of the entire thing. So all the talent put on a real show but essentially Triple H was telling me the entire time not to care. I don't know why I had to watch if HHH from the start was essentially saying it's nothing tonight and joking around and goofing off. I would have much preferred they played it like a normal show. I would have much preferred Cole by himself, him commentating the first UK Tournament showed what a good commentator he is. Raw, NXT, and SD are gonna have to be from the PC now. These are real shows. If they want people to act like they are and to watch them, treat them as such.

Hopefully WWE cancel all events until you can get a crowd back in, 3 hours of Monday night raw with even more recaps, repeats of old matches and probably even more adverts is not for me.
It was an enjoyable show tonight in some ways for the novelty of it but that will wear off quickly, i can't see myself watching much more until they get the arena and crowds back, will give Raw a chance though first.

They'll probably have something more for Raw since they have time to prepare for the unique situation

So, supposedly Matt filed a trademark for twist of fate and that’s why Jeff can’t use it anymore. And apparently Reby had something to do with the trademark being filed. Never been a fan of Reby, always seemed like a real hoe-bag.

Never been a fan of Reby, always seemed like a real hoe-bag. I always thought the WWE had the rights to Twist of fate because of the DVD they released in 2008(?) of the Hardys. But Matt and Jeff used the name in TNA after that so it could be the case that no one owns the rights yet. I always liked them calling it the Twist of Hate in TNA when they were heels.

Good to hear this. Maybe they can go back to twist of fate. Twist of fury just sounds odd and forced to me.
