Not even remotely true.

Riddle and Theory got their first names back.

Friday’s episode has been taped. Let’s see if they show up at the Castle show on Saturday.

That said, setting it up against a face team would be a weird way to go.

I’ve always found the Dexter Lumis stuff to be largely shit. It’s not necessarily a knock on the guy, but the gimmick is just way too much. And the name is a little on-the-nose too. You can be a little more grounded and mature by shedding that extra “there’s no way someone like that could ever exist” vibe.

I didn’t like The Fiend or Braun Strowman either for similar reasons. They’re cheesy as shit.

It doesn't need to be super real. And while 2000 had its moments of silliness (Mae Young hand birth, the culmination of the Autin whodunnit storyline), the meat of it with Chris Kreski at the helm avoided the utter shite.

I think I draw the line at stalker/kidnapping stuff. Like at that point, just have your wrestlers rob banks or sell coke on TV since apparently, they can get away with everything.

@Noidfect


Did you find the "get these hands" and "Im not finished with you yet" Braun also cheesy?




The choo-choo train Braun was dumb AF. Miss the days where he would follow Reigns around teh back, randomly yelling IM NOT FINISHED WITH YOU YET and obliterating him.


THAT Braun pls

But an undead dude can turn into a biker and then back again amirite.


If it were up to you, we'd have Bret the Shitman Shart and Lance Storm as your 10x champs with all the straps and everyone would sleep within the first 5 mins


Sorry, Robb Banks is a taken gimmick in Sudistic Wrasslin. Cannot infringe.:fu:

Can see where you're coming from. I guess I don't care as much as long as its not the main event. Like, the kidnapping stuff with Joe Gacy and Bron Breaker bothered me. This, not so much, since its the undercard and it involves the miz who is a more entertainment based wrestler anyway.

Tbh the taker stuff is why I didn’t watch as much raw as most. Thought he was too silly. Didn’t love American Badass either cuz he was boring.

I did. It’s a little bit his name, a little bit how he was presented with The Wyatts, a little bit the production around his “feats of strength.” He was just way too cartoonish for my tastes.

But hey, looks like you might get your wish.

I believe in WWE 3.0

This is more like WWE 8.0, but it is better than WWE 7.0 thusfar.

Braun officially going back to WWE

Thanks, Triple H.

Step 1 in getting me to watch again.

Hmmm. I could do without Braun tbh.

I'm for it. Way better "giant" than Omos rn. Gives Omos more time to develop hopefully before Braun puts him over as the next monster, maybe at like WM40.

Between Tyson Fury and his rumored eventual match with Drew and now Braun coming back (he's not finished with Roman yet), Kross and whatever he's up to and Theory still running around...there is def some kind of chicanes happening around the main event.

Can see them maybe having Theory come away with a title. He'll think the match is for both, but it isn't, it's only one of them. He goes back to RAW with his new title and I won't be surprised if he is fed to someone Monday night on RAW to get a new champ who will carry the belt for a bit. Either that or we get a tournament to name a #1 contender to the now RAW title, whichever it is, probably to culminate in a match vs Theory at whatever the next PPV is or Crown Jewel if they do that in October again.

Actually maybe have the finals of the tournament at the next PPV/Crown Jewel and then the title match at Survivor Series. Give time to build the title feud.

Also, with the drastically increased focus on actual wrestling since Haitch took over, a tournament does seem rather in order. Can always book it to advance some other feuds too. Maybe end up with some match ups like Damian Priest v Edge and Rey Mysterio v Finn Balor, stuff like that. Wouldn't shock me at all if a tournament right now ended up in a Riddle v Rollins II rematch at the next PPV, winner to get the title shot.

Wouldn't be surprised to see Bray back v soon with Braun back now. Wonder if they bring back Rowan too.

Wyatt Family 2.0 with Alexa gonna show Judgement Day + Dom Mysterio how to do the "dark" gimmick correctly.

I could see Braun costing Drew.

Bring back THE RYBACK instead

Could you imagine the downward spiral Phil would experience if Ryback got to main event a Wrestlemania :rant::rant::rant:

Would be EPIC!

I can also see Braun helping Drew win.

Raw threads have less pages than the TNA / impact pages

A good indicator that internet opinion isn’t the barometer you should be using.

I don’t know if you guys have noticed, but interest in wrestling is kind of dead.

Just make sure you don't use internet opinion to validate that

Thank goodness there are plenty of metrics that point to this conclusion.

Just not on the internet.

Do you think Raw or Dynamite is more popular?

I'm on the internet, therefore it doesn't matter.




Those are the rules I've been given.

You’re getting closer to the truth. Still so far away, but you’re getting there.

Cool.


Thanks papa.

Reports coming out that Bray is in Cardiff.

Bray or Fiend tho

I’m not your father. I can see why you’d be confused though.

I was really looking forward to Clash at the Castle.
