Why does 1 of the mods keep sloppily merging / breaking random threads

ready to watch smackdown

thankful that Cesaro, Sheamus, Gallows, Anderson, Bray Wyatt and Finn Balor are not on SmackDown

This is gonna feel different when I'm not skipping commercials, but at least I get to hang out with all of you cools guys who rule.

HERE WE GO! BE BETTER THAN LAST WEEK, PLZ

Michael Cole on Smackdown

oh no

:| Cole filling in tonight.

Maybe his mic won't have mysteriously random problems like on RAW for the past several months.

omg really good... felt "dread" that there would be a cesaro and sheamus and/or gallows and anderson match immediately after this segment but it's not gonna happen cause they are on raw, not smackdown... really good

Damn, they go hard for Bryan.

Crowd goes wild for 6-woman tag match. What's going on here?

crowd is pumped about the six woman tag match

D-Bry's hair getting longer again...... like him better with shorter hair.......

If they're gonna keep Zayn's theme, does he still have to dance? Maybe he's "trolling" or whatever, but it feels weird.

Really should change the theme, though. People are still singing it, for fuck sake.

Sami could kill a kitten live on television and I wouldn't see him as a heel.

That's a new tactic. Blatantly ask the crowd if they think you're a heel.

I'll be in and out here.

Watching the Yankee game and this.

I kinda like this Sami.

Solid stick work from Mr. Zayn.

Ok Sami got exactly one good line so far

Gotta get me a Bullet Club shirt.

He sounds exactly like Billy Mays I swear

Ok ok Sami getting people to hate him good job

Sami's heel work is brilliant in this promo.

This handicap mic attack may be too much for Bryan to handle.

KO should headbutt Bryan too.

You know whats good about Zayns promo

his candor its not over the top smug but it is irritating as hell.

Agreed. He's not snarling and screaming and telling the fans to stick it. Really solid performance here.

Daniel Bryan was good there too.

Took forever for somebody to point that out

Liked Sami better this week, but still can't help but think about how genuine/real/humble he seemed as a face in NXT and everything else just feels slightly forced.

Carmella is conspicuous by her absence in that 6-woman. Is tonight the night?

Jinder Mahal with a Survivor Series announcement

oh no

They are really laying into DB It must hurt his soul to keep being reminded that he can't kick people in the head anymore

Damn...someone undid my mod abuse

KO had some points, sorry DBry

Random Thot: What if this entire time Scott Steiner was yelling "Haku, if you hear me" b/c he needed to tell his friend Haku something important

Makes sense in kayfabe. He thought that once he finally broke through in NXT, he'd be respected and given opportunities to shine, but his time on the main roster hasn't turned out the way he had hoped. Something had to give. I think it was all executed logically, which is more than we can say about most things.

Becky going to have her entrance in a commercial.....

oh no

I just tried to fast forward the DVR out of habit.

Actually think he sounds and acts like someone who was a nice guy and got kicked around for it would act.

Its not really a 180 its just an epiphany and bitterness

Yeah, not saying it isn't good. Just saying that in the back of my mind I am always thinking of what could have been, and what was.

Opening promo segment was really good.

Wish they would turn Charlotte heel again..... works much better as a heel......

Yeah. Especially since he's not all "FUCK THE FANS". He seems like he's just focusing differently now.

Ah, there she is. Probably not the night then.

BREAKING: Nia Jax on "Leave of Absence" supposedly walked out of RAW last night

Remember how shitty Team BAD was?

Right like he doesn't necessarily see himself as a bad guy its just that he "gets it now"

I wonder if Lana will do any moves in this match

Smackdown always has a weird thing now where they will go to break, and cut all the audio, but the picture will stay on the screen for another 1 second before actually going to break......... bothers me......

Hopefully it's a move where her tits pop out.

Carmella getting hot watching these six women go at it

Theyre just not gonna tag lana I guess

Lana showing these cunts how it is done

The whole Women's Revolution from the debut of the teams till they broke away was handled pretty badly. Didn't help WWE pettiness against Punk also carried over to AJ Lee's title record.

:lol: at one of the team's being named Submission Sorority I think and WWE quickly realizing it was a porn name.

It feels like Charlotte changes alignment about as often as Big Show.

Former SD woman Alexa Bliss ^

Lana seems bad at facials

(In the ring, not with Rusev)

Charlotte is just lucky Asuka is being sent to RAW

Why do the women always have to hug each other when they're babyfaces? Can't they just high five or bump fist like normal fighters?

Lots of audio feedback in this backstage segment.......

Seriously some wrestlers are just born to be heels Charlotte is one of them

Wait...why is Tom Phillips "on assignment" for several weeks....Neville....Nia Jax...Tom Phillips...where there is smoke there is Demon Kane fire...something is UP!

Oh you mean like MEN:shifty:

They are all getting the boot

Yeah. I'm trying do deconstruct the entire women's revolution one degrading comment at a time.

Maybe Tom is off Face F'ing Nia Jax.

Much to Byron's dismay.

What did they say about him, wasn't paying attention

:lol: at the size of the needle for Breeze

He's "On assignment" for several weeks

I don't think I really dig all this.

I knew Breeze was gonna be playing Uma Thurman

Lone Coyote Bear Carbon

Just him being "on assignment" but didn't say for what. Probably just requested some time off to deal with something on the side like Nigel did recently.

Didn't find that one too amusing

I'm not sure if I would have told the viewing audience that Baron Corbin would be wrestling after the commercial.

But what if they told you he was facing Sin Cara?!

Sin Cara new mask atrocious

Looks like he botched a headband

SIN CARA WINS!!!

:lol: at Corbin losing to Sin Cara.

:'(

OK, what was the point in any of that?

Baron Corbin has a weakness against luchadores

"I know all about that rap stuff" :lol:

Chad Gable barely taller than Renee Young

I wonder whose face Jinder will be making fun of heading into Survivor Series.

Every time I see Jinder I can't help but think "Is this even real? How did this become a thing?"

If Bludgeon Brothers don't use their giant hammers on their opponents then don't bother

Who wore the sledgehammer better: Bludgeon Brothers or Triple H?

If Bludgeon Bros was the best name they could think of for Rowan and Harper, hate to think what the possible rejected names were.

Spoiler Alert: Jinder keeps the title until at least December 8/9th are passed.

Jinder DOES have a really cool entrance and a sweet theme.

How awesome would it be if the fans in India all rapped along to Jinder's theme like people sing to Nakamura's?

Still can't believe they fed Nakamura to Jinder twice.

I can't believe they're actually going through with this.

...is Jinder going to beat Brock Lesnar?

I don't know why the idiots backstage(and JR ) told Jinder to tone it down when he talks

Now Styles vs. Lesnar would be tight. Not so much the Jinder thing.
