* I love the crazy combo of Dawson & Rusev. The Bulgarian Brute needs a little work, but the essence of something is there. Love the way Regal puts over Dawson on commentary.
* Paige and Sasha Banks had a fantastic match. I'm in love with Paige, but Sasha can be my mistress. The story told here was really good -- Sasha actually showed that she can get the Women's Champ (damn it feels good to type that as opposed to "Divas Champ") down, and she wrestled virtually a flawless game. Paige managed to counter a few times, but Sasha would always get control of the match back. Then she lost out of nowhere because Paige is clever and good and shit. You could really understand her frustration.
* LOL, Bo. I have to say -- I haven't been as hard on Bo as others, but I jumped on the "he's eventually going to be an awesome heel train" early. I kind of worry they're going to overdo the delirium. I kind of think he would just work better if he thought he was better than everyone and kind of just razzed them. Not in an entirely conventional "I'm a heel way," but in a "I know I have true fans out there!"/"Ya'll just jealous of me" way.
* Paige vs. Emma should end with both Sasha Banks and Summer Rae attacking them, throwing their match out. A tag team match is set, which Sasha & Summer win because they're on the same page, while Paige & Emma still have an eventual title match looming. Sasha and Summer can help each other out against Charlotte, Becky Lynch and the like.
* Really enjoyed Leo Kruger tonight. More than I usually do. I think he would make a fitting addition to Triple H's Corporation. He could be a lone hunter working for Hunter. Xavier Woods has got quite a lot of the tools. I'm not sure how seriously he'd be taken as a main eventer or anything, but more and more smaller guys are doing it. He'd make a good choice to stand up to Ryback, since Sami Zayn might be a little too small for that role. Would love to see Woods vs. Zayn in a #1 Contender's Match sometime soon. I have read the spoilers and such, but I just can't remember what happens.
