There was, but AAA was gone so nothing was updated.

I don’t know why you wouldn’t use Broken Dreams for Drew.

Lol If Drew McIntyre is the one who takes down Roman Reigns after all this time...

In fairness, Drew seems like a total HHH guy.

Triple H has all the power to try to properly build up a true star the way he wants before using the credibility Reigns has built to crown them. If he just uses it for another go with Drew, those Vince 2.0 vibes are gonna hit quick. |
First run he dropped it after 7 months, regained it less than a month later and held it another 3 months.
I still don’t think he wins but I’m less certain now. Probably some screwy finish with Tyson Fury involved somehow. |
No one cares about Drew. They should stop trying to make Drew happen.
|
Drew is a fine choice. There are plenty of things you can do with it. He’s far from the most dynamic pro-wrestler of all-time, but he’s really, really good. If you want people to care about him you better have some sort of plan of what to do with him whether he wins or loses.
I think the call is to have Drew win, but have it be screwy. Protect Reigns (yeah, he’s the heel, but he’s also a star). It will feel more exciting. Karrion Kross tries to get involved, knocks out referee. Riddle cancels out Kross (he wants Drew to win), Shane McMahon runs down in a referee’s shirt and helps Drew get the quick pin. At Extreme Rules you can run Drew vs. Kross vs. Riddle and Reigns vs. Shane. Something totally different. |
throwing it out there for Nashvember 2022 in a couple of months that it should include clips/full versions of his Kliq This podcast from Youtube. They are so good.

As far as the match, it’s one of those “If any result is bad then just don’t book the match” situations. He absolutely shouldn’t be the one to beat Reigns but how do you not end this big show on a shit note if Drew doesn’t win? A simple post-match beat down isn’t gonna cut it. |
Oh man. Just thought of a horrible scenario where they try to execute a “win/win”. Drew wins, gets the huge extended celebration, crowd goes nuts, they go home happy...
And then the decision is reversed on Raw after it’s discovered Roman’s shoulder was up so his reign remains uninterrupted. lol |
Watching H’s interview with Helwani and he confirmed Brock walked out after Vince retired. Hmm… I guess Alavarez was right. How about that.
|
So funny how careful Hunter is about what he says about Vince. As he should be—but still pretty hilarious.

Gotta put the spin on it.
|
Lol I heard the full quote. He started out downplaying it by saying it was never a war which is fine because I don’t think he ever actually claimed it was a war to begin with.
But then he followed it up with that and… yeah… |
HHH is still HHH. People laud him as a hero but he's a shrewd, reprehensible fuck from time to time. I respect him as a shark--and he obviously has a mind for wrestling. But he a piece of shit.
Never forget the reign of terror. And never forget that he's responsible for white-washing (or McMahon washing) so much of the overall wrestling and WWE narrative. He's a propagandist to the highest degree. |
He's just trolling AEW
|
I also heard a clip from an interview a few weeks ago where he echoed the old “Vince took wrestling out of dingy bars and high school gyms” narrative.

To you. There’s a large portion of fans that want Bray back. I could do without Braun and Rowan being there personally.
|
Not knocking you like it’s your preferred booking, XL. Just the potential reality of the idea.
If there’s somewhere to debut Bray, because you HAVE to — have him do something The Judgment Day once they are done with Edge & Rey. Dominik’s turned heel and they’re all in the ring. Bray comes out and hugs Balor. Or something. On Clash: I’m surprised that AJ Styles doesn’t have a match. He won the WWE Title there a few years ago. I’m not saying it was a MASSIVE moment or anything, but it would have been nice to see them cultivate that appeal. That’s why I had Lashley vs. Miz vs. Styles vs. Omos on my card for it. They get AJ, Lashley who is also a huge babyface and someone to see live, The Miz who’s one of their stars and Omos as a spectacle. Ciampa can run interference. Dexter Lumis could get involved and take Styles out. Ciampa can run off MVP and Lashley can beat Miz for the finish. |

For the record, I think Bray and Braun will both be back. There will be the idea to get all their former pushed guys back. Bray moved merch too, so the change in management will be seen as a fresh slate for him. Hell, I can see them going back for Bo Dallas too, should he be open to a return (he’s only 32). I DON’T think it’ll happen at Clash at the Castle though. I think Bray gets weeks and weeks of vignettes. I could see the show closing with something from Bray — like a Michael Cole sounds off, we go to a dark room kind of thing.
|
I’m still feeling the title change for Drew. I just can’t see the UK guy not winning. I think it’ll be met with controversy, but I see them going for the hot finish. I can unfortunately see Braun getting involved in that. Karrion Kross pulls out the referee on a Claymore. Knocks out the ref. Riddle runs down and takes out Kross. Braun’s music hits, he comes down, Powerslam to Roman. Drew wins. The sword is dangled that the other referee will try and reverse the decision, do a Dusty — or that they’ll use this to try and separate the belts. Nothing comes of that.
If the referee is “new” and someone that can work, that could be good for eventually getting them involved in the story when they don’t reverse the decision. They can become a target for The Bloodline. If he wasn’t released, someone like Trent Seven would be good for this. |

Surprise ending |
Full show predictions:
* Balor & Priest beat Edge & Rey. It’s predictable, I’m not a fan of the idea, but I think they’re going to have Dominik turn heel and join Judgment Day. That seems to be the only reason he’s out there. I like the idea of Edge wanting to kill Dominik and Rey trying to stop him. I hope Heyman can steer this in the right direction. Pretty funny that Buddy Matthews used to bang Aaliyah Mysterio in the story, and now Dominik is going to kayfabe get with Buddy’s gf. * I’m increasingly optimistic that Shayna might beat Liv Morgan for the SD Women’s Title. Liv can still hover around the title scene with Shayna and Ronda there. * Gunther beats Sheamus in a fucking banger. * Matt Riddle beats Seth Rollins in another fucking banger. * Damage Ctrl defeats Bianca, Asuka and Alexa because it’s the right thing to do. * Drew wins the belts. |

What Triple H said about Bray Wyatt and Braun Strowman gives me hope. He didn’t flat-out dismiss either guy, but basically said Braun was polarizing and that if he wants to do this at the highest of levels, he’d give him another look. That reads to me like “sort your shit out, go to Japan, don’t fuck up, maybe one day.” Bray seemed more 50/50, but Trips did imply that Bray was his own worst enemy.
Hopefully they’re both off the radar for the time being. Braun also posted a picture of himself in a CYN singlet and he looks so jacked that I don’t think he’d pass the Wellness policy. |
Meanwhile he is definitely trying to court Sasha Banks back into their camp.

Joking aside. Horribly overbooked finish. Add The Usos, Sami, and KO in and you’re probably close.

But hey, if you want Drew to go over cleanly, there’s nothing wrong with that idea, per se. |
Triple H seems to be trying to bolster the tag division on SmackDown. Imperium seem like they’re back together, Hit Row are in there. They’ve got a long way to go before they reach the level of Alpha Academy on Raw, but it’s a start.
|
Fightful Select is saying that Bray Wyatt has an offer from a startup wrestling company, most likely Freddie Prince, Jr’s. I assumed that was dead in the water because FPJ was back under the WWE umbrella with WWE Rivals.
It’s probably dirt sheet bullshit, but I’d rather something else come along for Bray than him returning to the WWE. |
Maybe he'll go to The Rock's wrestling company

Freddie's big thing was he wanted to set up the show to get his wrestlers in the screen actors guild, or whatever it is called nowadays, which would give them access to all kinds of benefits like insurance and pension plans. Once they were in WWE and AEW talent would both have an easy case that they should be in as well.
|
If Bray Wyatt’s going to go anywhere, I hope it’s NXT. Let him play a fake babyface looking for redemption. Eventually it can be revealed he is poisoning the minds of the young talent or whatever.
