Can't believe someone's gimmick was basically "can't do his finisher well."

Do you guys think Shisen and I would have won Tag Team Turmoil if I'd died in that car accident four months ago? Think that would have put us over the top.

Rusev wasn't involved...

Rollins
Zayn
Jericho
Owens
Enzo
Cass
Roman Reigns

Forgetting someone I think...

They said Balor had to relinquish the title cause he was out for at least 6 months with a shoulder injury

Then Seth Rollins came out and said he deserves the title

But then all those wrestlers came out

And Mick Foley said there would be a tournament for the title (finishing off next week I think he said)

Then Rollins vs. Zayn has been on and that's what happened so far

How funny would it be if they knew Balor was injured so they decided to have Reigns destroy Rusev pre match instead of putting the US Title on him. Now he can win the Universal Title instead of Rollins.


Did they tease a Rollin face turn yet? That needs to come.

Given that the Reigns match happened before Balor's shoulder exploded on the barricade, I doubt that's the case.

That said, I'm suspecting that they're holding off on crowning anyone tonight, because they want to do Reigns, and he's going to get eaten alive here, but next week is in Houston, which may be a little more friendly.

No. It went Rusev/Reigns and then Orton/Brock. Last 2 matches didn't have a real finish.

Noone wants to hear it, but am starting to think Bret Hart is right about him. It doesn't look good if you can't consistently protect your opponents.

More like the WWE panicked once they got the results and are just redoing the Universal tournament again. Sheets teased for a while Rusev-Reigns was never meant to be a long feud since Vince just wanted to use Rusev to get people to stop booing Reigns before sticking him back into the title scene.

The knee I can excuse, because that was on both guys.

The buckle bomb with Sting maybe because he's done it a ton of times without any issues--at that point. Maybe ill-advised at worst given Sting's age, even if it had been 'clean' up until then.

But that barricade bomb is dangerous to the extent that it--at least from my perspective--is 100% on Seth to set the guy up right, and there's a ton of moving parts. That would be the straw that broke the camel's back--or shoulder.

Hart can talk too much in his old age, but maybe he is studying his style and can see that it is on the edge. Maybe he is not doing all the little things well to make guys 100% safe.

Guys like Hart and Flair pride themselves in keeping an opponent 100% safe.

Part of it is how fast paced and risky today's style is, but there still needs to be responsibility on the part of the performer to make sure these things don't happen.

It is a massive blow to Finn Balor, and it all could have been avoided so easily.

Starting to get a bit SOOOOUUUUUR on New Day. Last few months have been pretty stale/repetitive, and a lot of the segments have been kind of weak compared to some previous home runs.

Their matches have just kind of been "there" since like TLC. I'm fine with the Doctor Gallows & Doctor Anderson stuff, but the fact that all of the Club / New Day matches have been like three minute clusterfucks with non-finishes is really killing the feud more than the fact they're feuding over bruised taints.
