Brie Bella getting carted out after a six-person tag is either a work or a reminder that nostalgia runs don’t always end well. NoDQ →
Bryan’s got his report locked behind the paywall while the rest of us live-tweet our takes for free. F4W Online →
Vince saw WCW guys as mercenaries, not messiahs—JBL’s right, which is exactly why he buried most of them anyway. 411Mania →
Night One had moments but nothing that justifies the word “success” without asterisks and caveats. Pro Wrestling Sheet →
Brandi’s reaction matters less than why Orton’s run-in happened in the first place, which tells you everything about this storyline. WrestleTalk →
