Need a link

It's over

Safe to say that wasn't enough for me to continue watching tbh.

He'll probably attack half the roster though i imagine.

Would you look at that Miz and Ambrose are feuding again lol, dat Superstar shakeup.

Asuka is pretty intimidating & badass wrestler with amazing charisma & theatrics. When the crowd chants "Asuka's gonna kill you", you know this woman is a badass !

by Great Leader Sprucenuce Tue Apr 18, 2017 10:48 am

Raw sounds completely trash Laughing

All complete filler except for Strowman and the Women's no 1 contender match the rest sounds like it means actually nothing for the general direction of the show.

Taking Owens away combined with Jericho soon leaving rips away the only consistent good thing for last 6 months.

Dean Ambrose vs the Miz? Dat suppaaaastar shakeup...

by Onyx Tue Apr 18, 2017 1:51 pm

Jeff Hardy competed in a singles match on RAW. :bow:

Ring collapsed on RAW and there was another Wenger Out sign. hmm

Lmao, I respect RG going to each Raw in a different city in pursuit of his world wide support of #WengerOut.

by Great Leader Sprucenuce Tue Apr 18, 2017 2:17 pm

Anyone see who is in the 6 pack challenge to be no 1 contender for the WWE title lmao?

Zayn, Harper, Rowan, Mahal and Mojo rofl

Meanwhile AJ Styles, Kevin Owens, Baron Corbin, Dolph Ziggler, Nakamura or even someone from the New Day are not involved rofl

No issue with Zayn or Harper but the others being in it is *bleep* hilarious, especially when Owens and Styles are in a US title feud for what reasons nobody knows. rofl

wat

that better be a title shot on smackdown with that lineup of jobbers and not at even a throwaway ppv

by Great Leader Sprucenuce Tue Apr 18, 2017 2:22 pm

It will probably be a throwaway PPV or a throwaway Smackdown.

I imagine they want to do Orton vs one of Styles/Owens/Nakamura at Summerslam and they keeping them apart until then and this is a way of wasting time till then.

But regardless it's still *bleep* hilarious, because you want to save the big match for Summerslam doesn't mean you should intentionally put jobbers in the title picture lol.

At this point Styles and Owens for the US title will feel much more important than the WWE title match.

by Onyx Tue Apr 18, 2017 2:25 pm

With Cena gone, there's only like 3 legit people on SD. Rest of them are midcarders. Would be easier to just end the brand split and move Orton/Styles/Nakamura to RAW.

by Onyx Tue Apr 18, 2017 2:26 pm

Another Austin/Russo podcast. :bow:

Austin talks about being 'larger than life' and also say's if he had to mentor one guy in the WWE, it would be Strowman.

Owens is legit, whether you like him or not isn't relevant. Putting him on the same level as the others mentioned isn't fair lol.

But even so, there's no reason to put Mahal, Mojo and Rowan in a WWE no 1 contender match lol.

They have at least 10 guys above those 3 lol and that's without Cena and Rusev. It's quite clear they haven't done this because they lack people lol, i named multiple people already who they could have put instead but haven't for whatever reasons.

by Onyx Tue Apr 18, 2017 2:37 pm

Stick Owens in a tag team with Samoa Joe. Zayn in the cruiserweight division. hmm

by Great Leader Sprucenuce Tue Apr 18, 2017 2:39 pm

In all seriousness they need to push Hardbody Mahal tbh, if he can concuss Balor that surely means he's a big tough guy who is better than Orton hmm

by Onyx Tue Apr 18, 2017 3:19 pm

Bray vs Broken Matt feud on RAW. :bow:

During last night’s edition of Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer said that WWE’s plan is to use the “Broken Hardys” gimmick. Meltzer said that it’s all up t the negotiators, as WWE will have to make some sort of financial agreement with Anthem for the rights to the gimmick (it may be a one-time payment or an agreement that pays a percentage for years going forward). This is why Matt has been weaving in and out of the accent and still doing nods to the gimmick on TV and live events. WWE feels that the “attitude era Hardys” has a limited shelf life, and that the Broken gimmick has great merchandising potential under WWE.

by Kaladin Tue Apr 18, 2017 3:29 pm

by Great Leader Sprucenuce Tue Apr 18, 2017 3:36 pm

Wonder how they will do it, have him turn on Jeff like in TNA or something completely different?

by Firenze Tue Apr 18, 2017 3:37 pm

that would be entertaining

we've all said it and they're right about attitude era hardy's having limited appeal

Broken Matt is a great gimmick and would have quality feuds and I see no reason why Jeff can't be an established main eventer again, and they could certainly use more of those

by Onyx Tue Apr 18, 2017 3:38 pm

Lesnar needs to lose the title asap and Reigns needs to drop to the midcard. Would rather see Jeff/Matt/Bray/Miz/Ambrose or Strowman as champ. Hoping Bray wins the title vs Orton and Lesnar somehow appears on both shows.

This would be entertaining, trouble is I don't see it happening.

They are going to build towards Reigns and Lesnar and keep the belt on Lesnar until Reigns beats him at WM.

It's why I have zero interest in the show, there's just one massive Reigns shaped ceiling that everyone will be kept below.

There's just a huge limitation on the roster, would be much better if Reigns and Lesnar didn't exist and you had Strowman, Rollins, Balor, Joe, Both Hardys, Ambrose and Miz.

Fresh feuds for the most part with no real ceiling on anybody, it's why I'm looking forward to SmackDown. Sure some people might not be main event level yet. But everyone is booked at a similar level which makes it unpredictable and no handpicked favourites or part timers to hold down the potential of the show.

Why does AJ need to even compete in a 6 pack challenge ? He's an automatic choice for a wwe championship match which they obviously want to save it for later.

In the meantime, feuding with Owens is not a bad idea at all. Only negative here is someone like Owens would lose out on a #1 contender spot but I guess they want him to do a similar job like Miz did on SD and carry the mid-card.

by Great Leader Sprucenuce Tue Apr 18, 2017 4:05 pm

It just doesn't make much sense Surag, AJ wins the no 1 contender for US title and the person he beat is in the WWE no 1 contender match lol.

Not to mention as I said Nakamura and Corbin are nowhere to be seen and there's 4 literal jobbers in the match who should be nowhere near the title scene.

Meanwhile people like Owens, Nakamura and Styles are not involved and it's completely nonsensical.

I don't have a problem with Styles and Owens as a feud as it builds up the US title but how they are doing it doesn't make sense and it's going devalued the WWE title.

No matter what the outcome is the US title is going to feel like the main event programme, hell the Ziggler and Nakamura programme will probably feel more important than who ever Orton will face.

It just makes no sense on any level.
