I listened to the press conference as a podcast while I've been doing stuff this morning. When you hear how he was talking, it sounded like he, and Steph, were just done with Vince for a while before all of this horrible stuff has come out.
They had to be. Frankly the booking and storylines were shit for a loooooong time. Everyone knew it. That combined with his bs, age and nonsense. I'm sure everyone was sick of Vince for some years.
The percentage of people staying around for like 20 minutes after the celebration was staggering.Jesus, that was a monster pop for Cody winning.
Judgment Day is in a weird spot after Mania. Rhea and Priest are champions but now I'm not sure what to do with Dom, Finn and JD. The idea you have with Dom is good but I kind of want to see if he has what it takes now to be a solo heel.

I just watched the press conference too, always enjoy hearing Triple H's insights in them.HHH made a comment about how it was great to see Steph regaining some confidence, and not doubting herself, and finally being able to come home to where she belongs. There were stories about how he'd undermine her in front of her staff, usually under the guise of "I can't show favouritism to you, just because you're my daughter".

Heyman thanked him on his HOF speech for giving people more creative freedom. Triple H talked about how before the show he told everyone to just have fun, as he only wanted to stay after the acquisition if things were fun. You can feel how much fun the roster is having out there. It must be a relief not walking on eggshells around crazy Vince.
There's no WWE, Monday Night Wars, and even AEW, without Vince, but I'm so glad he's gone.
I love where they are going. It's small things in their longer term and subtle story planning, like Drew telling Seth his being obsessed with Cody's story with cost him. Punk shouting at Drew to stop focusing on him several times was an intentional call back, as his obsession with Punk cost him. Good shit!
I give Cody a month of coming out and giving the same whiny promo as champ before they turn on him.
It's a given that he's going to do the fake cry quick turn away from the camera that he does all the time lol.I give Cody a month of coming out and giving the same whiny promo as champ before they turn on him.

That triple threat was my match of the weekend. The tag match right before it was top 3.This weekend was a great, from NXT, all the way through to the main event. The only disappointment I had was the Usos match. I hated the Superkicks, all the time.
Did anyone else catch the Oba Femi/Dijak/Josh Briggs match? That tower of doom spot was incredible, and Oba Femi is an absolute beast.

I think it's time they gave Solo a bit of shine. He's still essentially a glorified bodyguard.
Jey will be fine. The fans love that yeet shit, and he's never been a show stealer. You know what you're getting with an Uso match. Lots of kicks, chops and splashes. Predictable, but it works for them. The crowd was also pretty dead on night one. That match might've come off a bit better with last night's crowd.
