He'll win the House of Horrors match surely. If not it will be a monumentally bad booking decision (for a change). It's hard to think of someone in recent years who has been handled so badly by creative (and yet somehow the guy is still over).

Alexa completely destroyed Bayley on the mic out there. Not going as far as calling it a burial but Bayley looked really out of her depth in comparison.

I know it's a standard wrestling trope/logic, but are the WWE really going to continue to pretend, in the "reality era" no less, that throwing someone off the stage (which is not as high as it once was) is more devastating if the victim is contained within a metal dumpster than if they were just thrown directly off the stage and head/spine first onto the concrete floor?

Come to think of it. Dumpster matches, like inferno, casket matches and buried alive matches, are another of those things that should just be done away with. It's a gimmick match where the gimmick makes the match less exciting than a normal 1 v 1. I know that in the immediate case the gimmick was probably just included as a way of getting Kalisto a fluke win over Strowman and Strowman going nuts in response in order to put more heat on him, but I'm sure there were other less convoluted and more logical ways the same outcome could have been achieved.

If you are within a dumpster, your body is not able to adjust itself in space to cushion the impact of the fall. You may have heard boxers say that it is the punch you don't see coming that knocks you out.

The dumpster match made a lot more sense than normal Tbf.

Also get shinsuke a twenty minute match on free TV Ffs. Don't lose the audience

Speaking a foreign language is tough already, but with the mouthguard on, Nakamura's set the difficulty on legendary there. Not sure the segment worked at all, but the match will be good for sure.

JBL was surprising good on Talking Smack. Despite being a dick irl, he's pretty quick on his feet with the jokes. It's a bit of a low energy affair whenever Shane's on and Daniel's absent.
