Foam bagels! Yes. That makes sense. But I swear they were bagels because the shapes were just the slightest bit of inconsistent.

She is technically skilled but terrible on the mic. It almost feels as if rather than work with her on showing actual personality, the WWE is just like, let's see if you pick something up from your Dad so we'll have him do the talking.

I don't understand how she is an awesome heel beyond her father. She has zero promo game and looks awkward whenever she's not wrestling. Hence why she can't go out there without Daddy.

I'm guessing Vince shows up tonight and says, you did good, son, plus Steph & HHH failed their mission so here's Raw.

Charlotte?

To be fair, her entire wardrobe could be confused for the Divas belt.

I wonder how many bagels descended upon the Mania stage when that box tipped over. (I'm 98% certain those bagels were playing the role of Booty-Os. Solid prop-ing.)

If Charlotte wasn't Ric Flair's daughter, she never would have made it past the mid-card at NXT.

The Republicans are not what they seem.

I don't think Winter knows how to make shows that feature legitimately interesting female characters.

Maybe they will kill off Richie and Ray will inherit AC. Boardwalk had zero problem killing off its ostensible lead at the end of its second season.

It was pretty, pedigreed garbage. There were some standout performances (i.e., Jack Huston, Jeffrey Wright) but the cast was too large and it all felt very shallow and pithy. People were always getting killed but that ever seemed to reduce the number of ensemble players or storylines.

Sasha Banks just does not compute as a face. Where do they get these ideas?

How has Charlotte turning heel been a good move? If anything, bringing Daddy into the mix has highlighted he complete lack of presence. Most of her technical prowess is totally negated by the fact her only gimmick is that she is Ric Flair's daughter.

I wonder who Nina would choose for Kill, Marry, Screw—Stan, Oleg, and Fox Mulder.

I'm fairly certain all youth pastors may come off as molesters.

When this show ends, I want a Stan and Oleg "Perfect Strangers"-esque spinoff.

So the Penguin's newfound stepmother is none other than Julie Cooper (Melinda Clarke). Who was the mother of Marissa Cooper, aka Ryan Atwood's first love.

But Ross pushed for more people of color on "Friends." So it's sort of beyond meta and potentially nearing neo-Droste effect.

I agree there were some great performers on BE—I was particularly fond of Jack Huston. Michael Shannon and Jeffrey Wright were also complete standouts.
