Pre-Show match: Jack Swagger vs. Baron Corbin

Pretty clear WWE are putting the triple threat match on first as they are anticipating people tuning out and switching over to the Presidential Debate.

Pretty excited. My first PPV on my WWE Network. Cant wait!

Yeah and if its anything like what happened with the last debate, might be a bad sign for the ppv in terms of quality.

Miz vs Ziggler would make a lot of sense as the main event but knowing the WWE, its probably going to be Bray-Orton instead.

I prefer No Mervy

Main-Event is opening the show.

That is one way to make sure I'll see the debate w/o missing it.

Football, debate

that means cena is not braking flairs record tonight

Kind of weird putting the main event on first even if there is a debate. People can watch No Mercy at anytime on the Network. Im fine with it and understand why but its still weird. Id like to see WWE Network ratings because I know not every subscriber watches live or even watches at all.

Unless he loses, bitches and moans the whole rest of the show, rematch at the end of the night.

It's going to hold Swagger / Corbin off of the preshow so it can main event.

A lot like the 2006 Royal Rumble, which was main evented by Kurt Angle beating a then-extra-shitty Mark Henry via roll-up in front of an empty arena.

Why is Carmella smiling in the pic? She's a heel. Plus she has been vicious.

The Hype Bros & American Alpha vs The Ascension & The Vaudevillians is on the Kickoff.

Mojo looks so out of place in that pic.

Di-di-diggity di-diggity-dawg

(Socko)

Wonder which one of the Vaudevillians will take the pin tonight.

Was that the one where it ends with the ring or part of it breaking which was why the Rumble itself wasn't last?

I am kind of thinking something like that will happen make it 1st and last match

I don't know, I think I tried to block out most of it.

The biggest booking mistake WWE has made all year is getting rid of Curt Hawkins' previous theme.

"And he's near the ring... so I'll stop talking."

I take back what I said.

Never liked this fucker

Curt Hawkins with the Wrestlemania pyro.

... I kinda wanted Scott Steiner to come out and attack him there.

Very disappointed that wasn't Scott Steiner interrupting.

I originally thought they were trying to make Curt Hawkins an 80s action hero type guy, but with his new music, I believe he's an anime / dragonball Z character, and will spend three weeks charging his finisher.

The language they're using to discuss Becky's "medical issue" is really suspicious.

Other teams need to jump the Hype Bros and destroy Mojo

Jerry Lawler doesn't think Trump's comments were a big deal does he?

Lawler going outside his HS dating sphere.

Die,die,just die.

Really short entrance way. Makes it look like a house show.

This set looks pretty basic.

The sad part is I can totally see WWE trying to turn Mojo into a big deal

I know the Angels didnt make the playoffs but Mike Trout is taking it pretty hard. Hype Bro Mike? Is that allowed in your contract?

So women main eventing? Or maybe Zigs vs Miz?

LMAO greatest tag ever!

About to tune in, how was the preshow

sup everyone

Yay the faces won.

Corbin / Swagger

Niiice. Talking Smack after the PPV.

Let us celebrate our glorious WWE Champion / REMEMBER SOME TNA:

Hell yeah boy, AJ right dur betta bring dat out against Dean and damn John Boy.

That was surprisingly good commentary by Booker T

I can definitely see some sort of angle going down at No Mercy that leads to two WWE Title matches to keep people hooked. AJ Styles pins Dean Ambrose and then Cena challenges him one-on-one or something.

Eh, probably not. Given the rest of the card, Bray/Orton seems like the next biggest match they have, but I can see them giving it to the Intercontinental Title and Dolph's farewell. I'd mark out for Heath Slater headlining a PPV though. If Becky is wrestling, they could cut in front of RAW and have the women main event a SmackDown PPV first.

Just realized the WWE panicking hard about the debate tonight and maybe even Sunday Night Football means Cena's streak of not being in the main event of a ppv continues. Same for him not re-breaking most ppv main events in WWE history.

Is it me or are the ascension pitiful?
them and the vaudvillians

idk, they are still advertising it as the "main event" I think... not sure if it "really counts" as a main event though!

via WWE Network email:

It's all coulda woulda shoulda with them now.

Alright boys lets go!

WWE might treat it like Mania with its multiple main events but everyone else still treats the final match as always being the real one for records.

Wow this really is kicking off the show

...the fuck? Are they reviving the old SNME format?

cena out 1st wow he has fell

Christ I want the belt off Styles.

via wrestleview.com:

Makes no sense starting no mercy off with the world title match

Didn't we just see this exact same hype video?

What happens to the world title scene after this match...

These guys are like the only 3 "main eventers" on SmackDown really... feels like it is gonna be some combo of matches between them for the next 8 months

I thought my feed broke and closed and reopened the Network

vignettes after entrances!? main-event going first!?

TY @ triple a

Dirtsheets have been teasing this as likely being the next WWE title feud:

:lol: a triple clothesline.

Cena and Ambrose are both leaving for a while? How come

How come they had John Cena give some "emotional" promo like 6 months ago about how he isn't a part time wrestler and how he'll never leave to shoot a movie or something... then he left to shoot some show like 2 weeks later

Would not be surprised if there's a double pin between Ambrose & Cena putting the finale of the match later in the night. Whatever happens here, I don't think it will be a clean finish and the match will continue later on.

Crowd seems pretty good

well time to call up samoa joe and roode then

This could be a MOTY candidate

crowd seems amped

I kind of always want the main-event to open the ppv now...I like this!

CHINESE WHORE

Your attempt to make me vomit is not appreciated.

What if it's Jack Swagger vs. Baron Corbin right after this

Feels like the crowd was "exhausted" @ SummerSlam after intense Cena vs Styles match

Umm if those Dirtsheet things are true i'm really annoyed.

Probably just not gonna have any other matches and just put the debate on the big screen.

A Sleeper Party is a lot less exciting than a SUPERKICK PARTY

Can Bray Wyatt get a break man? Can he just win won fucking PPV match?

That was a 0 knuckle shuffle actually

Ambrose got involved with a new WWE film and Cena is going to be busy with a new season of his American Grit tv show.

lol true

I bet Ziggler/Miz closes the show

Really good lariat by Ambrose.

sweet

Oh here we go. Another match later.

SHENANIGANS lol

:n: Styles taping.

Wait what how does the match not end even if it was shenanigans.

...never mind.

haha

Great match so far

That was super lame.

I have no idea what that last five minutes was, but okay.

Yay AJ won!

Announcers and such really need to stop being bewildered by the whole "wrestler submits to a double submission" thing.

It's as bad as Rey Mysterio "discovering" that he can't use the 619 in every single cage match he ever had.

I love when Mauro yells MAMMA MIA!

:y: Styles won.

Really good match even with the wacky stuff near the end.

What the hell styles gotta use a chair or lowblow somebody to win a match if that's the case he needs to either go back to TNA or Japan.

Right, time to watch the debate instead

Could you imagine if back in the 90's they took Undertakers gimmick and shit all over by jobbing him out every PPV?
