inb4 masked Kane returns for the 1045th time.

by RealGunner Wed Jul 15, 2015 4:24 pm

LMFAOOOOOO that's actually a realistic possibility Laughing

with the way last RAW ended. Kane might as well return masked to take vengeance.

by M99 Wed Jul 15, 2015 4:41 pm

The Taker rumor could be legit. There are pics of him working out and he only does that on Wrestlemania season, when he is returning.

Brock vs Taker 2 on Summerslam? Hope Brock does not kill him, he gave him a real life concussion last time Laughing

I don't think anyone is going to buy 100yr old Taker beating Lesnar...

by M99 Thu Jul 16, 2015 4:42 am

Probably will be Lesnar vs Taker vs Rollins. Taker will be pissed at Rollins too for treating Kane like shit hmm

Taker interferes in the main event, Lesnar gets counted out or something, Rollins retains. That's the most basic outcome, so hopefully something more interesting happens.

The Undertaker is scheduled to return to WWE TV next week to start building to a match at the August SummerSlam pay-per-view, according to PWInsider.

Taker is currently scheduled for Monday's RAW in Kansas City and could be appearing at the Battleground pay-per-view, but that's not confirmed.

Meltzer did not say anything about ratings being low. In fact, this has been planned for months.

I wonder what the women will do on Summerslam. Maybe a triple threat six women tag? The NXT women are amazing but they need the proper time and writing to show off their wrestling skills and personality.

Hopefully they will be able to pull these of on RAW. Let the Bellas *bleep* off already and stick to Total Divas.

Not surprised.

Speaking of Sunday’s Battleground pay-per-view in St. Louis, as of Wednesday, WWE had sold just 10,500 tickets for the 14,600-seat setup. This would be the weakest advance for a regular WWE pay-per-view this year, not counting Elimination Chamber which was originally a live event in a smaller venue, and not promoted like a pay-per-view.

Classic WWE lol

Shit, our star power is running low, we've failed again. So let's feed our part time main attraction to a really old, really part time old main eventer. Because DAT is best 4 buizness.

by Onyx Fri Jul 17, 2015 11:40 am

Lesnar as champion with 2 appearances a year > Rollins. Main event scene is still shit even with a weekly champion imo.

Rollins on twitter:

A year ago every single one of you couldn't stand Lesnar as champion. Now you've got all you've ever wanted in a champion right in front...
...of your faces, yet you're clamoring for him to win it back. What a joke. The future is the present and it's still never enough for you.
A hapless generation of incorrigible keyboard warriors...I can't wait to visit "Suplex City" on Sunday. One more chance to put every one...
...of you in your place.

Holy shit, looks like NJPW and WWE have some sort of deal.

Three weeks later NXT spoiler:

From the spoilers, NXT Takeover card looks amazing.

As fans may recall, The Shield reunited for a brief moment at the recent Payback pay-per-view during the Fatal 4-Way Match involving Dean Ambrose, Seth Rollins, Roman Reigns and Randy Orton. They teamed up to give Orton their trademark Triple Powerbomb through the commentators' table.

It's being reported by Dave Meltzer and The Wrestling Observer Newsletter that WWE officials have indeed been talking about reuniting The Shield at some point, possibly at the SummerSlam PPV.

Meltzer noted that he expects the former Shield members to be working as babyfaces at SummerSlam.

by Tomwin Lannister Sat Jul 18, 2015 6:48 pm

Shouldn't they just reunite as heels and take down face Lesnar.

Inb4 they reunite as faces and go after the authority lmao. Haven't seen that in a few weeks.

by Onyx Sun Jul 19, 2015 9:49 pm

Undertaker returned.

by Tomwin Lannister Sun Jul 19, 2015 10:00 pm

You know what I ain't even mad

At least taker's buffed up and cause he looks old as fuk anyway he has his deadman appearance nailed to perfection. Problem is in reality he probably has 0 stamina and will struggle to put on a legit match. It'll have to be a spotfest with rests in between every signature move.

And the way they booked Brock the only kayfabe people that can do this to him are legends now. Either that or they debut one of the massive people they have in developmental. Because the current upper mid card/main eventers are tiny or fat aside from those he's already dominated Laughing

by RealGunner Mon Jul 20, 2015 5:20 am

Watching battleground.

Great performance by Orton against Sheamus. RKO outta nowhere lol. Decent match.

Prime time playas vs A new day was surprisingly good Laughing

Young's trouble in paradise is GOAT. PTP retained.

Bray actually won against Reigns lol :bow:

Was a fairly decent match. Reigns is actually improving

Skipped divas match

What an incredible match between Cena and Owens :bow:

Owens is so strongly booked lol. How many finishers did he kick out of?

STF tho Proud

CenaWinsLOL Proud

Some random event between Miz and Show

Rollins coming out to crickets and mild female cheering lol. Quite a short main event judging by the video. Only 15 minutes left lol?

LESNAR :bow:

Rollins running away already rofl

Sneak attack on Lesnar rofl

Lesnar no selling anything rofl

That sadistic smile on Lesnar's face lmfaoooooooooo

Holy shit. Lesnar jumping over the barricade like it was nothing. That barricade is taller than MT ffs Laughing

Rollins attempting the great escape.

LMFAO Lesnar not selling anything. Rollins' plan was actually really clever. Lesnar not interested in putting that over Laughing

13 suplexes lol. F5 follows.

UDNERTAKER HOLY SHITTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT

UNDERTAKER BAH GAWDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDd

He looks 85 Laughing

THAT RAGE ON HIS FACE. LESNAR'S FACE so scared rofl

Somehow Rollins retains

by RealGunner Mon Jul 20, 2015 5:24 am

Was a decent PPV tbh. Matches were good.

But WWE are doing the same thing again. No one can touch Lesnar so they bring back Taker lol.

by Jay29 Mon Jul 20, 2015 5:35 am

So with Taker and Lesnar probably having a match at Summerslam, who's going to face Rollins for the WWE title? Are we going to see Rollins vs Ambrose again? Rollins vs Sting?

The fact that there is no babyface in a position to take the title off Rollins is one of the many reasons why WWE are struggling at the moment and have gone back to relying on old part-timers.

by RealGunner Mon Jul 20, 2015 5:45 am

I have a feeling they might go with a Kane vs Rollins feud. Seeds have been planted afterall

But if they are clever then they'll try cook up something more interesting. Problem with Ambrose is that they won't give him the title. So Ambrose will feud with Rollins for a bit and then go back to wandering around aimlessly. Which might hurt him even more.

No idea who Rollins can feud with at all other than Ambrose though.
