The official story is they stopped the match, Doc checked him, Doc cleared him, they restart but go straight to the finish. Not said is I think the match had the 'Must be a winner' so I think they felt a true finish was needed. Matt's promo from Wednesday has him going home to heal so it appears wiser heads prevailed eventually or they figured it was a bad idea to stay in the ire of Reby Hardy.

The easiest to point out problem comes from timing this stuff out. The time between calling off and restarting was a bit over 2 minutes, there's no way they did a good enough check of him in that time. I'm not even sure if Doc was there for all of it. Best case for Doc is he followed their protocol, it sucks and needs updating; worse is he allowed Matt to go climb a scaffold for 1 last move and they're lucky he didn't slip to more damage.

Wow so Road Warrior Animal randomly passed away. He always seemed so active, rather shocking to see that.

The video on Impact of Heath rallying for a contract was bloody brilliant. It's also worth seeing for what happened to annoying balloon ass Katie Forbes. Why Rob Van Hair Dye is into that retard we'll never know but golly they are consistently the worst act on the show.

Yeah Animal's passing is sad to hear, but I thought to turn that negative into a positive. Both of these guys were Bouncers before getting into Wrestling, so I thought both of these guys are taking care of the Front Door to Heaven making sure everyone is in line.

I don't know I'm on the opposite end with the Heath thing. Yeah it was cool to see Celebs and talent wanting to succeed as well as his kids, but the goofy stuff is the same stuff he was doing in WWE. I thought he wanted to do something better and show WWE you dropped the ball with me? Beauty is in the eye of the beholder they say and I'm sure RVD needs his sight checked for sure as I look at Katie Forbes week to week.

Yea it was goofy and cameo made it. I think Heath likes playing that character. I doubt they are that creatively devoid they'd stick him with his old gimmick.

AEW was good. I think they're trying to show that MJF is on the same level as Jericho. He's obviously next in line when Jericho decides to leave. Maybe they'll turn Jericho cos MJF manipulates his way to leadership of Inner Circle. I enjoyed the hard hitting main event.

Was Omega tipsy when he did that promo segment or was he just that bad.

For a 30th ann show, I was expecting too much going in.

They over hyped the collar match so they only got themselves to blame for that one and to have one of the biggest spots during an ad.

Main event was a case of Jericho being too giving to his mate who isn't on that level at all.

Last five minutes were the best part of the show. Might have been the least annoying clown ever, not sure he merited an elbow to the face, poor bastard.

Woah Jake Roberts's Father on the Stand he was truly one evil mofo if you know the life story of Jake the Snake. Pillman will be pulling at my heart strings for sure.

So many things from last night I could start a conversation on and yet I'm going with this video YouTube recommended this morning: http://youtube.com/watch?v=ipRN...ab_channel=WWE

MJF's Tough Enough video audition video. This is a teenager and he promos that good.

Yeah Sting coming to AEW made my heart stop and then Omega winning the AEW World Title and thus going to Impact makes me so happy for a huge Impact fan.
