Okay, that was a great tv main event. AJ holding up expecting the RKO was brilliant.
That was an awesome finish.
EDIT: Who's gonna be on talking smack tonight?
That fakeout for the forearm was awesome. The popup RKO to win it was also a pretty dope finish.
Great main event. I hope Styles gets to challenge Orton for a few PPVs after 'Mania,
Talking Smack just showed AJ going into the back and getting in Shane's face. Good to see Road Dogg back there too lol.
Talking Smack, 205 Live, and NXT are definitely worth the cost of the Network.
Talking Smack is definitely something I now look forward to every week. Miz on it right now killing it lol.
EDIT: HOLY SHIT!
Daniel Bryan: "What? Straight to DVD movies? You want to be an actor but you can't act."
Miz: "You want to be a wrestler but you can't wrestle!"
Oh my god my sides right now lmao. Miz is so damn good right now lol.
Miz and Maryse and DB killed it as they always do, god damn
There's going to be a Ride Along episode with Jericho and KO, obviously from happier times. I don't know if my heart can handle it.
I agree with reddit that The Miz's Cena voice is just Dave Chappelle's white guy voice. I hate Miz in the ring, but he has been killing it on the mic.
Christopher Daniels promo for the RoH ppv this Friday. So great.
According to Meltzer, Kairi Hojo signed a 3 year deal with WWE. Io Shirai is going to be with WWE over Wrestlemania weekend. She hasn't decided to sign with WWE or stay with Stardom yet. I guess if we see her on NXT that Saturday, there is a good shot she signed.
Edit
Here is a match between the two (fast forward to 2:25 for intros, 7:00 for the match)
If this is true, then the possibility of Asuka heading to smackdown (like someone mentioned before), could be true. I saw in the NXT taping last night it's Ember Moon v. Asuka for the title at takeover Orlando, and this could mean Asuka may lose. They both have an undefeated streak, and this could definitely be a MOTY contender.
Yeah I don't think there is any chance of Asuka being full time in NXT to long after wrestlemania.

Even with it being a work I have to imagine Jeremy Borash enjoyed the hell out of ripping into Matthews to start Impact.
Reby is going off on Impact and isn't holding back:

Apparently Anthem laid off several Fight Network employees (most notable Robin Black) and is cutting back on its original programming. Speculation is the cost of buying Impact is the reason for this.
Sounds like this stems from TNA serving the Hardy's legal papers claiming that TNA owns the "Broken Matt" and "Brother Nero" characters (as well as "Senor Benjamin") and are threatening to sue them if they use those characters in another promotion. This is gonna get uglier before it gets prettier.
