of Jey Uso going through the arena to the outside where Sami is waiting there taking it in is great stuff.

After the Bloodline story, it feels VERY 'earned' when Jey and Sami are together doing basically anything good (IE: Jey winning a match and surviving a predictable heel beatdown + Sami about to defend a title in his hometown). Seeing Sami go back the same way Jey came from into the ring was awesome af. Rasslin is fun when people are over more than the movez they do (and trust me, I love me some movez!).

It almost scared me into thinking he wasn't winning. Sami LOVES LOVES LOVES being a tragic/failing hero. But then I saw that his cute wife was there (and maybe his dad too) and I relaxed.

Gable suplexing Sami out of his boots post-match as he's doing the 'I just won, my wife is looking at me like Tessa Virtue looked at her skating partner, and now I'm finna get my luv on!' thing also worked amazingly well on me. And of course, as is well known now, Sami is a king when it comes to taking a beatdown. His poetic exit from The Bloodline, getting fridged by KO in NXT, and other beautiful times in the mask are easy examples to point to.
