My bet for MOTN is Charlotte/Sasha with Ambrose/Ziggler a close runner up.

Can see Orton/Lesnar and Rollins/Balor being slight disappointments. Both matches I've wanted to see for quite a while so I'm setting my expectations low.
I think it'll be Cena vs Styles so long as they don't end up falling into the PWG-style trap of move-kickout-move-kickout with Cena trying a moonsault hurricanrana springboard stunner.

Or Reigns vs Rusev.

Did they ever state the reason for the James Bond stripagram entrance for Cesaro?

Slip of the tongue from Cole there.Cesaro v Cesaro.

Nice that it's the Raw announce team on PPV.
Apart from to really ****ing annoy me, no I don't think they ever did.

I think there will be split teams between Raw and SD matches

Nice to see a different set for a ppv, plus new rope corners and different colour mats on the floor. Only little adjustments but does make a big difference

A 'WWE Ride Along' with Cole, JBL and Saxton.

I imagine the vast majority of it consists of JBL yelling 'Shut up Byron', 'Ballgame' and 'ILOVEITMAGGLE'.
With Cole adding 'They call it the rear view mirror'.
I actually laughed out loud reading this

I wanted to see Rollins vs Balor when it would have been Tyler Black vs Prince Devitt.
You mean before Rollins was half way good?

He was great as Tyler Black loved him in ROH.

I forgot about Cena/Styles. Which is bad as I was really looking forward to it. Replace Ambrose/Ziggler with that.

As long as WWE don't **** it up, this really has no reason not to be good (that said WWE love ****ing it up)

I loved Essa Rios and Lita back in the old Heat days. Can you believe things actually used to happen on the C-shows?
Hopefully, classic Sunday Night Heat will get added to the network soon.

Like most things WWE tries to modernise. What was wrong with the plain ones?

Why are the 2 commentary teams there?

Can you choose who to listen to?

Maggle or JBL, decisions, decisions

That's not a good thing.

Having seen WWE 24, AJ Styles also clearly rated him even pre-ROH. Though that said that was from a WWE show so goodness knows if there was any truth to it.

Which reminds me I need to see the Horsewomen WWE 24 from last night. WWE 24 easily my favourite thing on the Network.

I like the new stage. I've decided I don't like the posts after initially being uncertain

Think it'll be the usual story of good wrestling let down by bad booking.

The Raw team will announce Raw Matches.
The SD team will announce SD Matches.

They might be ugly but Cesaro got some serious height off of those posts

They're different. But does help to differentiate from your bog standard Raw or SD so I like them.

Obvious point but Cesaro is a splendid athlete.

Women's Evolution was a good show and WWE 24 is generally brilliant. Up there with Breaking Ground which was also great.

I know this is only a little thing too but I find the adverts they make for the network are brilliant too

Probably.

1 match down. Another 6 to go.

Though for LOLs WWE will probably end it 4-0 Sheamus. Vince Bantz and all.

Ahhh interesting idea

Who gets the Orton match because I will be delighted if I can go the full show without hearing "vintage Orton"

Sheamus wins match one after losing the two matches before that don't count.

And now Booker T is asked about his best of seven series against.....???

Just have them a different colour.

So do they actually win anything for winning the best of 7 series? Would make more sense if they got a title shot at the end of this

I totally love WWE24 - helps that it's only on every so often too so it's not run into the ground. And it's beautifully done too.
