WWE begins the ESPN era tonight, and frankly, it wasn’t great.

This 6 match card was very skippable. And if you’re not in the US and watching on Netflix, you never want to watch a PLE live again.

We started with John Cena and Brock. Paul E is back in Brock’s corner again, and Brock destroys Cena.

The Usos vs the Brons with The LA Knight as special referee was a spot fest.

Stephanie Vaquer and Iyo Sky put on a hell of match. Booker T is probably reaching for a towel somewhere. The post match respect angle and Vaquer celebrating with her father was the second best thing on this show. Maybe the best thing.

CM Punk and AJ Lee took on the Pop-Tart Twins of Becky Lynch and Seth Rollins. This was an AEW tag match that made it on WWE TV. If you like tag wrestling, don’t watch this.

The highlight of the night was Undertaker announcing that he was inducting Steph McMahon into the 2026 WWE Hall of Fame was a surprising segment. I really want to see the view from the Gorilla position on this one.

The main event was Cody and Drew. Don’t worry if you missed this, they’ll be doing this match again in Australia next month.

WWE has made it back to North America (unfortunately), and we’re back to the same old garbage.

If you want to see outside interference (repeatedly), boy do we have the show for you.

Tho, even Greg will admit he enjoyed most of the show (at 1.5x speed), we’re now edging towards the creative vacuum that was WWE in years gone by.

Greg debuts a new segment.

The SmackDaddies doing the second best thing you can do in the afternoon, watching SmackDown.

It’s always great when these shows are done by suppertime.

It wasn’t that bad. Seriously, it really wasn’t.

And yes, we grade these on a curve.

After the bloodletting of last week, we’re back to pick up the pieces with Smackdown.

Tonight, we get the introduction of a starky Ricky Saints… yeah that one will be hard to adjust to.

R-Truth providing Fraxiom Tax Planning Advice. We can only assume it’s how to prepare in the event of being future endeavored, and a match.

More Bloodline stuff for some reason.

Miz and Kit setting a trap for Danhausen.

Powerhouse Royce Keys squashing.

Sami Zayn in full heel mode, and an unexpected X.

Even more Bloodline stuff for some reason.

Thankfully they only have 3 hours to play with in 8 weeks.

After a weekend in Vegas, a bunch of wrestlers went bust after TKO’s Vegas gamble didn’t pay out. The house always wins, as long as it’s not the House of Black.

WWE terminated a bunch of wrestlers on Friday.

We also had Smackdown.

We’re in Vegas, so of course there’s a wedding.

We watched the Battle Royal.

We played a few games to prepare for Wrestlemania weekend and what might happen in the coming months.

Smackdown was barely watchable.

Watch the Danhausen parts of it, that’s really all you need to see.

Next week we’ll give you a recap of the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royale and play everyone's favourite game, “Will Greg Watch It?” as we preview Wrestlemania.
