This episode was pretty good. So good in fact that I don't have any negatives for this show.

Daniel Bryan Is Excited For Wrestlemania.
Why? Because it's Wrestlemania season and the fact that he can finally hear the live crowd once again at Raymond James stadium.
He went on to state that in his entire career, Bryan has been told "NO! NO! NO!" and him looking at his true self is how he started to say, "Yes! Yes! Yes!"
The dialogue ends with Daniel Bryan saying that he's going to get the best Daniel Bryan at Wrestlemania.
This promo really told you who Daniel Bryan is as a persona and why he's in the main event position at the so-called "show of shows".
In other words, I loved every single word of that promo and its meaning.
Rey And Dominik Mysterio vs The Street Profits vs Chad Gable And Otis vs Dolph Ziggler And Robert Roode For The SmackDown Tag Team Championship.
A brawl ensued before the referee rang the bell. The match itself was surprisingly, really freaking good.
I do appreciate the blue brand is at the very least, are showcasing their tag team division even though the main roster hates tag team wrestling (I say main roster because NXT's tag team division is improving).
At the end of the match, Montez Ford delivered a frog splash on Chad Gable and Robert quickly tagged himself in the match, threw Ford out of the ring, pinned Gable to retain the blue belts.
In an interview with Kalya Braxton, Bianca Belair noted that her nervousness shows that she cares and as long as she isn't scared, the EST of WWE can do anything. A decent promo.
Speaking of decent promos, Big E cut a promo about reconnecting his home city in Tampa and at Wrestlemania, Apollo Crews' intercontinental championship dreams will die.
Nia Jax vs Tamina.
Nia Jax aka somebody that I don't get why she's so damn protected of all characters.
And this match proves my point. The match ended with a DQ due to Shayna Baszler attacking Tamina *Michael Cole's voice* from behind.
In relation to the women's tag team championship scene, all of the competitors in the tag team turmoil match brawled but the team of Natalya and Tamina stood tall.
Edge Sits In The Ring, Talking About Wrestlemania.
Edge talked about how his WWE dreams started out watching Wrestlemania 6.
He then highlighted Daniel Bryan and how he's using sympathy to get into the main event of Wrestlemania (Edge called Bryan an indie troll which was funny).
Edge called Roman Reigns "the Samoan Edge" because he's been in a 3 man group and uses a spear as his finisher (didn't recall Roman Reigns having sex on an episode of Monday Night RAW but the comparison is fair, I guess).
The promo ended with Edge promising that he will walk out of Raymond James stadium as THE universal champion.
Hey, that was a good promo. His motivations made sense although I wish he didn't turn heel because I like good guys with layers and grey areas.
That Seth Rollins ad about Cesaro was f'ing hilarious.
Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royal.
Honestly, this is sad that all of these talented guys aren't going to be showcased on Wrestlemania at the very least.
You mean to tell me that y'all don't have ANYTHING for Ricochet? *Major sigh*.
But hey, Jey Uso actually won a match in a meaningless battle royal bout which is long overdue.
Roman Reigns Says That He'll Show Up And Win At Wrestlemania.
Reigns said that whenever he shows up, WWE is winning and how he's a valuable asset to world wrestling entertainment.
Roman then added that he'll destroy the dreamers in Edge and Daniel Bryan because like his catchphrase, he'll wreck everyone then leave.
I think all of the promos between Roman Reigns, Edge and Daniel Bryan are related in some way in the sense that they're telling the audiences who each guy is as a persona.
All 3 men did a great job on the dialogue side of things.
So, to recap for all of you slow mofos.
Like: The promos from Roman Reigns, Edge and Daniel Brya, The fatal four-way match for the tag team championship, the Seth Rollins ad.
Didn't like: Nothing.
