[Rebecca Reigns]

I hope Baron Corbin defeats all cummers tonight!!!

[KIRA]

Jinder Mahal is going to grace us with his golden god Abs and Veins of victory.

[RP]

I'll never understand why WWE insists on making matches with future PPV opponents. It really makes the PPV's less appealing.

[RP]

Here's an idea. Note this WWE, if you're reading. Instead of putting the MiTB guys in a tag match, how about you start building future feuds by having them, interfere with eachothers matches with non MiTB participants. It not only makes the MiTB match more interesting, but also sets ground work for future PPV's.

creative lol.

[slik]

WWE SD in Nola tonight...wonder if Kris P is attending/working it...home of WM34

[DAMN iNATOR]

I don't trust this thread...OFFICIAL isn't in the title...

[Lock Jaw]

Never mind that, it's time for the A-Show

[rez]

hey, damn inator. it's in new orleans tonight, dawg

[Lock Jaw]

Ha ha at shot of fan holding up a missing poster for Tye Dillinger

[DAMN iNATOR]

hey, damn inator. it's in new orleans tonight, dawg

I know. :y:

Also, is it just me or is anybody else really not "feeling" tonight's show?

[Lock Jaw]

Special Event Entrance for New Day

[Lock Jaw]

Liked that sick groove.......

[ClockShot]

How cute, New Day get a New Orleans Brass Band........just for tonight.

[DAMN iNATOR]

Ha ha at shot of fan holding up a missing poster for Tye Dillinger

He must've had one hell of an Escape Plan.

[Lock Jaw]

I don't like the "melting" or whatever it is supposed to be, lines on New Day's current gear......

Makes it look like they are slimy/soggy.............

[Emperor Smeat]

How cute, New Day get a New Orleans Brass Band........just for tonight.

Not as majestic as the musical stuff Jinder had for his party

[rez]

day one is not so h. <3 these guys

[DAMN iNATOR]

I think if New Day win the SD! Tag Team Championships Sunday, I fear I may have this reaction:

https://m.popkey.co/e4996d/zE6qR_s-200x150.gif

[DAMN iNATOR]

On the other hand, I'd dig The Colóns as tag champs.

[Ezra]

Might as well just call the show Smackdown Tag.

[Emperor Smeat]

Could have saved like 5-6 minutes by just having everyone come out at once and be self aware about doing a tag match next.

[DAMN iNATOR]

Also, Vince, please don't have the women wrestle a Fatal 5-Way tonight. I don't know if I can handle all that plus a 6-man PLUS an 8-man...so clustery...dying...

[ClockShot]

Not as majestic as the musical stuff Jinder had for his party

Which is why I only said cute.

[Lock Jaw]

I want Fandango to win the World Title soon..... nothing off the table now that Jinder won it.....

[KIRA]

I used to give WWE shit for their universe mode booking so many godamn tag matches but it seems that was accurate

[rez]

On the other hand, I'd dig The Colóns as tag champs.

Shitty you aren't rooting your cousins on

[DAMN iNATOR]

I want Fandango to win the World Title soon..... nothing off the table now that Jinder won it.....

David Arquette for next WWE Champion! :shifty:

[KIRA]

like the co-op of New day and fashion police

[DAMN iNATOR]

Shitty you aren't rooting your cousins on

They haven't done anything to substantiate their claim that they are in fact "H".

[ClockShot]

Bad choreography/timing with that sequence.

[rez]

Fair enough!

[Triple A]

Why is this gonna use up a half hour...

[KIRA]

Obscene amount of pelvic thrusting in the ring

[DAMN iNATOR]

Bad choreography/timing with that sequence.

May have started phoning it in a bit soon knowing that they'd still be seen on TV during commercial, dunno. :-\

[DAMN iNATOR]

Obscene amount of pelvic thrusting in the ring

Elvis rolling over in his grave.

[KIRA]

Starting to think Skipping RAW is a great idea as RAW is so shitty that even if SDL is a good show you still find yourself triying to pull up from the grinding suckiness of a RAW show.

[DAMN iNATOR]

Why is this gonna use up a half hour...

Reasons.

[DAMN iNATOR]

Starting to think Skipping RAW is a great idea as RAW

But then how will you get your Fox fix?

[Triple A]

Sucks that SmackDown sucks now

[Triple A]

Why do they think anyone wants to see these guys have a 30 minute match

[KIRA]

But then how will you get your Fox fix?

I.....GODDAMN IT!

She needs to move to SD where she'll be appreciated.

and give RAW Natalya

[DAMN iNATOR]

@owenbrown: Since you apparently don't care for Dean Ambrose anymore, who is your current favorite wrestler? JW.

[ClockShot]

Whoops.

[Lock Jaw]

THE NEW DAY JUST DIDN'T PIN THE CHAMPS!

WHAT DOES THIS MEAN FOR THIS SUNDAY NIGHT?!

[DAMN iNATOR]

Why do they think anyone wants to see these guys have a 30 minute match

Same reason they think fans want a 6-man tag later I guess. In other words #WWELogic.

[ClockShot]

THE NEW DAY JUST DIDN'T PIN THE CHAMPS!

WHAT DOES THIS MEAN FOR THIS SUNDAY NIGHT?!

Ask Poit. He has the inside track for Tipsters. :shifty:

[DAMN iNATOR]

THE NEW DAY JUST DIDN'T PIN THE CHAMPS!

WHAT DOES THIS MEAN FOR THIS SUNDAY NIGHT?!

THAT NEW DAY WILL FACE THE USOS FOR THE TAG BELTS! ALSO, WHY ARE WE YELLING?!

[Lock Jaw]

BECAUSE I DON'T GET HYPED, I STAAAAAY HYPED

[Lock Jaw]

I hope Mojo Rawley is on tonight's show!

[DAMN iNATOR]

I hope Mojo Rawley is on tonight's show!

...and have him get ambushed by a surprise return Zack Attack?

[DAMN iNATOR]

Oh no, it's Sami Zayn...

[rez]

BTW..commercial for next week's Smackdown. AJ vs. Owens (c)

[DAMN iNATOR]

UGH...Sami reading way too much into things...

[Emperor Smeat]

So are they going to explain why Cena is suddenly a free agent and nobody else was like Lesnar?

Jinder's biggest test as champ is going to be that Cena feud everyone is already expecting to be next.

[DAMN iNATOR]

BTW..commercial for next week's Smackdown. AJ vs. Owens (c)

Could be a red herring/swerve though.

[Triple A]

Did Mojo Rawley always have a lisp...

[ClockShot]

HEY ZACH RYDER IS BACK!

[Lock Jaw]

Really don't like Zayn's "overtalkative/neurotic" thing....... Was very "natural"/"relatable" before.........

[Mr. Nerfect]

So are they going to explain why Cena is suddenly a free agent and nobody else was like Lesnar?

Jinder's biggest test as champ is going to be that Cena feud everyone is already expecting to be next.

I was hoping Mahal would drop the belt to Cena, but now I feel like Cena is going to float and probably face Reigns at SummerSlam. :-\

[DAMN iNATOR]

So are they going to explain why Cena is suddenly a free agent and nobody else was like Lesnar?

Jinder's biggest test as champ is going to be that Cena feud everyone is already expecting to be next.

Maybe his contract with SDL ran out while he was on vacation and maybe he'll just put out an open challenge for one final match at SSlam before hanging it up for good?

Just speculation on my part.

[KIRA]

I hope Mojo Rawley is on tonight's show!

I don't think we can be friends anymore.

[rez]

Joe should have Tamina's theme.

[Lock Jaw]

Lana gonna start singing "Let It Go" at ringside and distract Naomi......

[Savio]

LANA HAS WRESTLED BRIE BEFORE!

[ClockShot]

Surprised Lana can fight in that dress.

[Emperor Smeat]

:lol: Lana getting tripped up in her dress after the powerbomb

[KIRA]

In a dress Impressed she did that

[ClockShot]

Asuka losing the belt anytime soon?

[KIRA]

She will be champ forever

[owenbrown]

Asuka losing the belt anytime soon?

no and why should she?

[Volare]

I'm at work reading this as it goes...saw the words Lana, dress, and powerbomb so now I'm interested when i get home in 3 hrs.

[rez]

HERE COMES THE CHAMP

[ClockShot]

Ok guys. Just wondering.

[ClockShot]

Roman's Summerslam announcement better be that BRAUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUN comes back to finally finish him.

[KIRA]

The MAN WHO COMES IN PECS!

[Savio]

Roman Reigns will retire at SummerSlam #Hopefully

[Emperor Smeat]

Adding screens to the ramp and making the whole stage one jumbo titan tron has really made a bunch of entrances look really cool.

Jinder having a visual carpet rolled out as he walks is pretty great.

[rez]

Rise and show some respect, guys

[Lock Jaw]

I like the "Yeah. Uh. Uh. Uh" at the start of Jinder Mahal's song...... prepares you for the dude breaking loose and "getting down" on vocals.......

[KIRA]

Fans need to start showing some goddamn respect

[Lock Jaw]

I like the way Mahal says "Orton".......

[ClockShot]

Adding screens to the ramp and making the whole stage one jumbo titan tron has really made a bunch of entrances look really cool.

Jinder having a visual carpet rolled out as he walks is pretty great.

But the question is, who has the better floortron red carpet.

Jinder or The Miz?

[Emperor Smeat]

Asuka losing the belt anytime soon?

At this point, its pretty much either next time she faces Ember Moon or whoever wins the Women's tournament is going to dethrone her. So probably Summerslam or whenever the final Takeover is this year.

[KIRA]

Fucking preach Jinder!

[Lock Jaw]

I like the way Mahal says "Punjabi".......

[KIRA]

But the question is, who has the better floortron red carpet.

Jinder or The Miz?

Thats tough I love Miz red carpet beam

[ClockShot]

FLY AWAY MAGIC CARPET!

[Emperor Smeat]

Jinder always sounds like he has a cold whenever he's doing promos in recent times.

[ClockShot]

Too late.

[KIRA]

oh fuck Randy Orton

[rez]

How disrespectful, Randy.

http://shop.wwe.com/on/demandware.static/-/Sites-main/default/dw559e10d6/images/large/TC9001.jpg

[Lock Jaw]

Pretty sweet RKO.....

\_0__/

[KIRA]

Pretty sweet RKO.....

\_0__/

He practiced on his kid in the pool first

[KIRA]

How disrespectful, Randy.

http://shop.wwe.com/on/demandware.static/-/Sites-main/default/dw559e10d6/images/large/TC9001.jpg

Want that shirt and another one for my wall

[rez]

Then practiced on a make a wish kid...

[Savio]

Corbin had a huge feud with dolph before right?

[Savio]

Can't remember a more boring WWE Title feud than Orton vs Jinder 2.

[Triple A]

Can't remember a more boring WWE Title feud than Orton vs Jinder 2.

Jinder rules . . .

[Emperor Smeat]

Can't remember a more boring WWE Title feud than Orton vs Jinder 2.

The last Cena-Orton feud?

Then again that was only memorable because of the crowd trying to hijack things for the YES! Revolution.

[rez]

beautiful drawing. def recognize who the criminals are

[Savio]

The last Cena-Orton feud?

Then again that was only memorable because of the crowd trying to hijack things for the YES! Revolution.

Possibly..... was that the one where Ambrose beat Cena for the right to face Seth Rollins and since Cena lost he got a WWE title shot and the right to face Rollins the next night on raw.... that was dumb and boring.

[Emperor Smeat]

Probably. Only remember their last feud having a decent match at the Rumble I think and the belts being fused together for some unknown reason. Everything else was like their past feuds which were flat and/or boring at least for me personally.

[Emperor Smeat]

Meh at JBL being the host for tonight's Talking Smack. Think the last time he was on the show, he kept trying to imply Fandango was gay and/or just overtly uncomfortable being near him.

[Emperor Smeat]

:eek: they interrupted Nakamura's entrance.

[DAMN iNATOR]

Great... Nakamura's has strobe lights in his entrance now...can't wait for them to have to take it out because they gave someone a seizure or something.

[Savio]

Lol I do look away during that part of the entrance.

[Savio]

(because it's annoying)

[Emperor Smeat]

Great... Nakamura's has strobe lights in his entrance now...can't wait for them to have to take it out because they gave someone a seizure or something.

He had it in NXT as well but it was red and not as bright.

[KIRA]

Way to go Dolph nothing screams dastardly heel like powder blue

[Triple A]

My prediction for who attacked Breezango is American Alpha, who will turn heel!

[Triple A]

I guess Jason Jordan doesn't have "greasy hair" though... But Chad Gable does

[Emperor Smeat]

Observer recently revealed why Cena is a free agent and pretty much he gets to float between shows whenever WWE feels like it.

When John Cena returns to WWE television next month, he'll be doing so with a storyline that he's a "free agent" ...

What that actually means quickly became a question. And people naturally wondered if it was related to the announcement that Roman Reigns will be making on Raw next week about his plans for SummerSlam.

Dave Meltzer and Bryan Alvarez briefly discussed the matter on last night's edition of Wrestling Observer Radio, and Meltzer noted that he was told that Cena won't be Reigns' opponent at SummerSlam. The idea is apparently for Cena to be able to appear on both Raw and SmackDown even if it goes against the brand split because he's one of the only draws that WWE has.

[Emperor Smeat]

If Ziggy added a bit of yellow and green to his tights, he could pass off as an unofficial 4th member for New Day like how Bo was for a while.

[rez]

Camera man fucked that lone wolf attack

[Emperor Smeat]

Time to scratch Nakamura's name off the winner's list for MitB.

[owenbrown]

so that guarantees Nakamura is NOT winning on Sunday I guess?

[Ezra]

How well does nak speak and understand English? Does he need an interpreter to help set up spots and outline matches?

Well I know his English inst the best. Guess it's more of how well does he understand.

[slik]

New play by play guy on 205 live...vic something...corey graves said he was from 'nxt'

[rez]

3 pages... pathetic.... mediocre A show tho

[slik]

ura ura ura

[Evil Vito]

So....Nakamura basically just said Dolph's going to New Japan soon

[DAMN iNATOR]

LOL René says she's "aroused" by Shinsuke speaking Japanese. :lol:

[DAMN iNATOR]

He had it in NXT as well but it was red and not as bright.

Seemed very annoying tonight and like probably a "very bad idea".

[Emperor Smeat]

Yeah the switch to white or something brighter was terrible. Like you mentioned earlier, don't see that lasting once the complaints start arriving or WWE realizes the problem they created.

[DAMN iNATOR]

Would like to see AJ win men's MitB, and probably Carmella for the women as she seems like the only relatively new competitor to not hold Women's gold, and if SmackDown! is really, TRULY the land of opportunity, as it claims to be, I feel they MUST go with her.

I'd also quite like to see them pull the trigger now with Lana, get the gold on her and perhaps have her and Naomi feud over the belt heading towards SummerSlam.

[DAMN iNATOR]

Yeah the switch to white or something brighter was terrible. Like you mentioned earlier, don't see that lasting once the complaints start arriving or WWE realizes the problem they created.

Yeah, seemed white or like light silver or powder blue. I think it's an attempt by Vince like the weird pyro in his entrance to try and get fans to stop singing to Nakamura's theme, which if it is true, is absolutely the most fucking asinine thing ever.

[DAMN iNATOR]

DB winning at WM XXX such a great epic moment. I still get goosebumps every time I see it.

[DAMN iNATOR]

Close up of WWE belt shows a few jewels seemingly missing. i.e. a Ruby here, a diamond there. Assuming those are all real, I'd hate to even think how much they'd cost to replace.

[Savio]

Camera man fucked that lone wolf attack

Camera was fucking up all night tonight.

[DAMN iNATOR]

Wish they'd come up with new theme for MitB ppv's. I always associate current one with that orange who lives in Washington, D.C.

[GD]

Oh my FUCKING GOD! Jinder Mahal's Punjabi is insufferable.

[Big Vic]

Oh and Naomi was looking super sexy last night.

[#1-norm-fan]

I want Fandango to get a mega-push the likes of which we've never seen.

But I also kinda want Fashion Files to never end.
