A bunch of new stuff came out about Dream today, I'd be very surprised if he was able to dodge them.

Also, while I have no way of knowing for sure, my assumption was Jack simply had no defense (legitimate or not), whereas the others did.

Well I guess that's ex-friend of the show now.

Absolutely fucking devastating.

I personally love these no audience RAW/SD's so far, maybe it will wear thin by Mania but at the moment I'm way more excited for mania now

Also:

Supposedly the Exalted One storyline was originally supposed to lead to Marty being revealed as it, but him resigning with ROH nixed that.

@dizzyhippos: OK yeah, I definitely understand that angle.

As for the main event, I didn't really mind it, but I do think this feud has made Dream's return ice cold, which is worrying given he's seemingly being positioned for the takeover title shot. Honestly they should just steal what new japan did with the tokyo dome and have Keith and Cole defend at takeover and then have the winners face at Mania, Keith really seems like the only one suited to take the title from Cole (besides maybe Finn, but I feel like that's a bad decision.)

Also, coming from someone who's not a fan of either man, the Gargano/Mauro interview was awesome.

I definitely agree on Shotzi losing, don't understand that at all. But Austin Theory definitely should get a big win playing off his stuff with Ciampa. I don't think Swerve was necessarily the best choice (as he's more over than he "should be" in theory, and they should run with that), but of the two Theory had to win.

Great clip featuring Dan

Also rumors swirling about WWE absorbing AJPW.

@gundato: Lacey wasn't on the main roster until a year ago
