A thrilling recap of the most recent episodes of Raw and SmackDown forced two good shows into one spectacular package, freeing the panel up to gleefully debate two shows that were easy to praise.

Renee's insights into what time the NXT talent even arrived backstage, the welcome panic about putting a show together in three hours, and the undeniable buzz created by the black-and-gold brand provided the unique opportunity for the hosts to speak with honesty and openness rather than carefully controlled craic.

Like the pilot edition of this show, the wide-open discourse made for a very refreshing change to the company's typical output. The longer Fox have a handle on this instead of Vince McMahon, the better.
