OFFICAL RAW THREAD- 7/10/2017- GBF Fall out! What will Roman do next? What will Bro-man do???

[Mr. Nerfect]

Another random theory: Kurt Angle has been having an affair with Lana. This is to build to Rusev vs. Angle. They like embarrassing Rusev and Lana, and Angle is game for anything and has said he wants the match. I won't go as far to "predict" it, but that really wouldn't shock me.

* They've sped through the Naomi vs. Lana stuff.

* Rusev is playing the anti-American in his feud against the free agent.

* Angle can help Cena at Battleground to continue blurring brand lines, because that feels like something that would do.

* It would be Angle acting like a heel which is totally in line with at least one feud Rusev has had around Lana.

[Mr. Nerfect]

Also possible: It's not even something that bad and it's just entirely goofy and has no consequence to the product at all.

[Mr. Nerfect]

The "big one" is Angle/Steph, but I just cannot see them doing it. It just seems like something that Triple H and Steph would nix. I can see them getting involved in whatever Angle is doing, but it just doesn't seem like a kosher move.

I did have the brief thought of Vickie Guerrero too. I don't know why. God, I don't know why.

[Rammsteinmad]

Oddly enough that was the first name I thought of too (Vickie Guerrero), before quickly coming to terms with the fact that I don't really care who it is.

[Mr. Nerfect]

Ha, that's a similar response to me. I'm speculating, but it's more with a tepid bemusement than anything else.

[Mr. Nerfect]

I'm curious to read about the direction they go in for SummerSlam. It seems likely that Strowman will get involved. But are they really going to go with a 4-Way at SummerSlam? It's not entirely unlikely, especially given the "SHEER MASS OF HUMANITY!" in the ring. Something about it seems like a cop-out and like it's jammed in there. But it seems like they are also going to do a 4-Way between the women and the RAW tag teams. Is this going to be like WWE Fatal 4-Way all over again?

A thought I had listening to a RAW recap was that they could do something WrestleMania X-like. Reigns could face Strowman in their final blow-off match while Joe could face Lesnar for the Universal Title. Then Brock and Reigns can face each other in the main event. It also seems unnecessary, but one thing I do like about it is that it puts emphasis on specific guys. The WWE has a star shortage, and instead of jamming everyone on the card, I'd rather they focus on the things that are at least somewhat working.

I think someone is going to out Kurt as being transgender. Kurt will be embarrassed at first but will learn that the WWE universe still accepts him.

[Mr. Nerfect]

Angle is such a trooper that he would probably go along with the program.

See, this is the kind of stuff that should be put on TV to help fill time and help showcase characters. Gallows and Anderson are actually funny, entertaining dudes.

[Mr. Nerfect]

Maybe Kurt Angle's big secret is that he signed Shelton Benjamin to a 7-figure contract with a guaranteed Universal Title shot against Brock Lesnar? Scandalous.

Same, for some reason. As soon as I read what happened it was almost like a foregone conclusion in my mind. "Oh. Vickie Guerrero." No clue why.

[#1-norm-fan]

I guarantee WWE started this mystery just to have a mystery and didn't know how it would end until sometime last week though. lol

They don't have Hornswoggle to get them out of it this time, so that's good.

"Fuck a broken neck. I won a gold medal with OVARIES!"

[Big Vic]

Kurt Angle would probably be the most dominate womens Champion of all time.

[#1-norm-fan]

Except in tag matches/non-title matches. Because we'd still have to wonder WHAT WILL HAPPEN THIS SUNDAY!?

[Theo Dious]

I cannot fucking believe Dixie Carter might be involved in a WWE storyline.

I cannot fucking believe Eric Bischoff might be involved in a WWE storyline.

Everything old is new again.

OR DO THEY???

[KIRA]

Steve Ray looks....old. His brother looks more or less the same as he did while wrestling (occasional glasses notwithstanding)

[James Steele]

Kurt Angle is having an affair with...

No planned payoff, and it just goes away. They bring it up years later, and it's revealed to be compromising pictures of Hornswoggle.

TAKE OUT THEM FRUIT-BOOTIES, 110th STREET STYLE! SUCKAS GOTS TA KNOW!!!

Well, it *would* give them the excuse to rehash those "nude" pics of Vickie that "leaked" before.

[Lock Jaw]

It's Hornswoggle.

[Tom Guycott]

Okay, about three of us have said Hornswoggle now, so that means it is too obvious and they're going to go in a different direction. So, it's now likely to be untoward pics of Mae Young's grown up hand.

Haha, that is exactly what I think. To be honest, I don't really know if they knew where the Enzo/Cass stuff was going. Cass faking it himself? Why did he even do that?

He did it for... The Rock.

I believe that this will involve Stephanie in some way. My guess is that they have a picture or some video footage from 2000 that wasn't used in the initial storyline that was (for story purposes) "leaked" or "stolen" which will bring Steph & HHH back to TV. Remember, it wasn't Stephanie that "hired" Angle to be the new GM, it was Vince. The conflict of interest shall insue... leading to what I figured was going to be Angle's first (if not only) match against HHH.

[Evil Vito]

The difference is Bischoff was a great on-screen performer with enough name value and notoriety to offer something to the product. Dixie offers nothing.

Stephanie with no makeup.
