⭐️TheMalapertSmark:
(A) Hot start to the show...
(B) Well it's logical, im glad they dont let things like this slip through the logic cracks...
(C) I wonder who the 4th guy is gonna be?... I will say, I like that Solo & Jacob don't constantly have beef, but flashes... im kinda hoping that in the end Jacob will just chalk all of Solo's mistakes up to stupidity and just forgive him because he's family...

⭐️ TheMalapertSmark:
(A) although some people don't like nia, they gotta go through w/ this feud, with ALL that backstory with here and Tiffany...
(B) Nice callback. i like when wrestlers hold a grudge over the past rather than just forgetting about it... Naomi was a face back then but still...
(C) this is kind of a trip, seeing as their related... i keep thinking they should just make nia & naomi a stable... like the female bloodline...
(D) well this let everyone know who WWE thinks is better. Jade with the dominant clean pin over nia...
(E) i like this, but at this point jade needs to learn that her thing w/ Naomi isn't done, and there is no WWE title until she takes care of the Naomi problem...
(F) There's only one way to settle this between Jade & Naomi... TEXAS DEATH MATCH!...
