RAW, Jan 2nd, 2023.

I looked it up on youtube and found a vid that matches their ring gear.

I see. Well, that's definitely a pre-Bray Wyatt Alexa too.

I think.

[up] We kind of knew going in that Dustin would be a caretaker champ, but he really made Kyle earn that belt tonight. I'm very proud of both of them. I'm also looking forward to Moxley's feud with Darby Allin. It's been a long time coming.

I recall laughing at Tito Ortiz' TNA debut where he just stood there and Aces & Eights acting like he's a big deal while the fans were just standing there collectively scratching their heads.

Summerslam Night 1: Kinda surprised the Not Friends won the Women's Tag Team Championship.

Wrestling Headlings also posted a pic on their Instagram where Bron Breakker needed help going backstage and favoring 1 leg, indicating he might have gotten injured.

[up] He jumped off the apron to attack Roman (or Jey) and the latter moved and Bronn hit his knee against the announce table. He seemed fine during the match, but I guess it was a little worse than we thought.

[up] For now, Bron could either be injured for real or it's a convincing sell job but as for Sami vs Karrion, Karrion's corruption seems to be slowly working its magic once again with how brutal Sami's been this match despite refusing the pipe.

Tiffy's still the WWE Women's Champion.

As Ron Simmons would say, DAMN!

This is already the 3rd time this year that CM Punk got screwed over in a main event. And for the love of the wrestling gods keep Gunther away from any championship belt this time. It's time to see whether he can hang without a title.

And yes, someone in WWE's Youtube channel did post this comment in the YT Shorts: Drew: "I prayed for this and it happened."

Overall, the real stinker was adding Jelly Roll and Logan Paul to the Randy Orton vs Drew McIntyre but more on Jelly Roll being there. That bout also went on for too long that it cut into the time for Tiffy vs Jade and Sami vs Karrion.

Knowing Drew, he's petty enough to gloat in front of Punk's face that his reign lasted half a minute longer than Punk's.

[up] I've now counted at least 4 "I prayed for this and it happened" comments in WWE's Youtube page and people referencing Drew and laughing badly outnumber the CM Punk stans who're pissed he got screwed over again.

Here's Drew's official statement as per the post-show:

“I’m sorry, but I’m going to have to say something about this. Karma’s a hell of a thing. I have been watching what’s been going on Raw with Seth. Seth and I have been professional rivals, not like Punk and I. Seth’s done exactly to Punk what Punk did to me, and tonight was the cherry on top. Congratulations, Seth. You deserve it. And karma is indeed a b*atch.”

Someone also pointed out that this is also karmic retribution for CM Punk cashing in MITB on Jeff Hardy back in 2009.

Opening Women's Title match.

Naomi retains. Rhea didn't proceed with caution and got the victory stolen from her.

Now it's the ladder match, and as much as I like Andrade, my brother noted that Andrade is where Penta should be, and Penta is where Andrade should be, and to be honest, he's right.

No knock to Andrade but, this match is lacking in Lucha Bros, and it's already quite stacked.

TLC match is done.

Wyatt Sicks retain, and I'm pretty sure we'll see a few guys taking some time off. I know I heard Rey Phenix loudly groaning.

Huh. Didn't expect Becky to retain. Since she won and Lyra's locked out of the Women's IC Championship, either it means she's moving up to challenge Naomi (hopefully) or worst case scenario she's banished to catering. Though Bayley or someone else beating Becky for the title might allow Lyra to challenge for it again.

Holy shit.

Brock Lesnar is back, and he must have been declared innocent for all time, because I thought we'd never see his ass again.

Cody vs Cena was certainly an improvement from their match at Wrestlemania. Definitely had a good amount of issues though. But as a whole, it managed to blend both the best and worst aspects of pro wrestling as a whole seamlessly. It was intense and excitng, it was clunky at points (especially with the spot with the ropes), the story was emotional, the story was nonsensical and erratic, the match was visually stunning, the match had really bad pacing. Regardless if you love or hate this match, it represents professional wrestling pretty well.

That said, I liked the match a lot overall. But the ending with Brock Lesnar legitimately ruined the ending for me. Controversy aside, I don't want this guy on my screen.

Not sure whether Brock as John Cena's Final Boss is a good idea or not given the last time they fought Brock gave him a tour to Suplex City. Certainly prefer The Rock to be Cena's Final Boss but his schedule's proven to be unreliable.

I just...how.

He was named in a sex trafficking scandal. A. Sex. Trafficking. Scandal. Was he declared innocent? Did it turn out he wasn't involved? Even if he was, I'd think TKO and WWE would still want to keep him away from TV purely from the accusation. And if he is.....why would you want him back?

What the hell is going on?
