I fast-forwarded through almost the entire thing just to see how far Penta would make it. Kinda surprised Punk or Cena didn't get it, though? Punk's been so damn injury prone that you'd think they'd want to finally book that before he's off for another year.
I agree about the glossiness, though. Pro wrestling is such an inherently silly thing that the smaller venues and pared-down sets lend the whole thing authenticity. At no point in the bits I watched did I actually believe any of these dudes were getting, say, punched or kicked, whereas in AEW, I'm generally wondering how the hell the dudes are still standing.
except for the dude cody fought, that landing looked brutal
