My boyyyy! My horrible boyyyyy! <3

Now I'm having a great day (well, half-great. Miss you Penelope)

Being evil of course, as is his way

I do wonder if this match was originally meant to be Andrade vs Max. The American flag stuff isn't really usual for Ciampa, and Max does the American Hero thing. If it was, I'm guessing they're getting things back on track now

The Arena Mexico crowds are always so good

Time keeps getting away from me, I didn't realise Redemption was so close. A week on Sunday, god

It's so good watching Adam and Christian wrestle together, it's so beautiful

"He's our father" and "Who's your daddy?" chants are a potential fatal blow to Daniel Garcia

Cope pulled down Danny's kneepad and tried to bite his knee, I love him

And then Christian biting too. They're like a beautiful pair of mated wolves

In one fell swoop, The Dogs lost Finlay's shillelagh and Clark's glasses in that melee. A dark day for them

Cope's like "we can trust this twink!!! I know we can!!! I've never had any trouble trusting in men before!!!"

Max has been quiet, and I suspect he's just resting his knee, but I also feel like he might be lurking around like the shark in Jaws

Max with the 'protect me, squire!' energy

Okada the only one he can count on

Maybe having a team made up of 10,000 people who hate you wasn't the best play, Max

God, Roddy constantly going after Max

And then them having to hug when everyone gathered together so Takeshita had someplace to land <3

Don getting off to Roddy's wrestling was a wonderful experience

Also, that spotlight on Kyle's ass was really something

Kyle-on-Kyle action in the year of our lord 2026 <3

MJF-on-Orange action in the year of our lord 2026 <3

Takeshita getting double-teamed by Protokada, oh noooo 👀

Max getting the pin on Roddy 😍

Max is wearing uglier and uglier jackets lately, I love it

I SEE YOUR CODE MAX

I thought there might be more DCF members from other wrestling companies involved, but Max interacting with Okada is pretty thrilling

The Trent bit was very funny :( 😭 I was hoping he'd be involved given it's probably gonna be Orange on the other team, but I guess - much as I love him - he's not one of their top guys, of the kind Max is paying MJF money for

I thought that was the Candyman coat again, and it was. Hell yeah

Max watching <3 In beautiful bisexual lighting <3

Swerve 🥰

I thought Nana hit Brody with his headpiece - the way he originally took out Adam in his and Swerve's first match - but it looked more like a box or something in the replay. Very similar though...

Apparently it is Will vs Swerve in the final, then. Should be interesting.

Don confirming he is a pimp

It's good they're buying a boat, if I was rich I too would start my own navy. Or maybe Don's finally getting his steamship

I feel like I never said, but I thought it was very funny that Kyle left Takeshita for Don. And I think it will be very funny when Don leaves Kyle for Max

[purplehairsecretlair]

Max always knows how to knock my head off my shoulders, and tonight it was by unexpectedly appearing dripping wet in a bathtub

[purplehairsecretlair]

Interesting that Max was talking last week as though him losing the belt was an option - that if so it shouldn't go to Briscoe because of his 'image'. Before Darby, I feel like he was all 'there's no way I'm getting beaten', but now he seems to be considering the possibility of someone else getting the belt just as much as whether he'd actually like to face them in the ring. It seems like a change of approach, and maybe to his attitude to losing.

Also, I'm sure they're doing a rich vs poor thing with Max and Mark, but I think it would be funny if Mark showed up in a suit and an MJF wig. And a Burberry scarf. Like "how about now?"

[purplehairsecretlair]

Relief.

Honestly - I kept seeing signs that made me think Max was winning or maybe I'm insane, but they seem so determined to put Darby over I really didn't know what to expect. And now I'm just happy for Max, despite it all - when he lost the belt, it did occur to me he'd be a 3-time champ if he won it back, but I didn't realise being a 3-time champ by 30 was such a big deal. And even after he brought it up, it was like - he'd have another 9 months to possibly achieve that, even if he didn't do it in this match. But he did do it. Here it is \o/

And then he kissed me 🥰 And all of us. Killed one camera and kissed the next one, the duality of Max.
