...is Asuka's first losing effort going to be on this fucking show?
|
Braun doesn't seem like a fit for something like this but I guess it's competition.
|
This is stupid
|
Tag team of Asuka/Braun will probably win and then donate the 100k to Conor's Cure
|
Rip 205 live

At least no more "Survivor Series is the one night a year superstars from Raw and SD compete against each other"

That is an awkward time slot, but I don't think 205 Live is in danger because of it.
|
Well either 205 live won't be live or this won't be live..
|
So fucking what?
|
I wouldn't miss 205 if it went away...barely watch it as is and it's pretty boring most of the time when I do see it.

If is is live, then it will take the place after Smackdown airs, which is what 205 Live does now. So where does 205 Live go? |
They need more battle royals not this crap. How the hell do you tape a show on Facebook?
|
Quote:
|
@Shisen Maybe they will develop a YouTube ONLY series for battle royals each week but you have to wear themed gear each week
Week 1: Surfer gear ONLY |

Those poor Smackdown crowds. No wonder not many people show up |
If Raw is 3 hours to be at live, might as well be that long for Smackdown too.
|
They still tape Main Event before Raw apparently. Wow.
There's an extra hour. |

|
Let's not forget Susan G. Komen or the Ultimate Warrior thing.
|
Really hope Michael Cole is not on commentary or Byron Saxton...feel like both would 'turn off' people from watching
|
Should do a mixed commentary and have Renee Young there
|
Or bring back Lita so she can relive those Heat days.
|
I think Coach is free now too.
|
Well, it's just got to happen now then.
Coach & Lita for the commentary team. |
Sounds like a way better version of the NXT seasonal era.

:lol:
If anything WWE got more than they should have because of how bad the tv deal has been for USA Network in regards to ad fees until recently and them covering all the costs to make Smackdown a live show. |
I hope Rusev and Lana team up and Rusev yells at Lana to CRUSH
|
My Smackdown parings:
Becky Lynch and Shinsuke Nakamura Carmella and Bobby Roode Charlotte Flair and Big E Lana and Rusev Jimmy Uso and Naomi Natalya and Sami Zayn My RAW pairings: Alexa Bliss and Braun Strowman Alicia Fox and Goldust Asuka and Samoa Joe Bayley and The Miz Nia Jax and Enzo Amore Sasha Banks and Finn Balor |
|
So in lieu of my fantasy to see Miz get kicked in the face by Nakamura I will gladly substitue Asuka to be the one to Kick Miz's fucking face off

I have no idea what the hell this thing is or what the purpose of it will be, but some of the best shows WWE has put on in this modern era has been when no one knows wtf is going on and creative freedom can be a larger part of the show. So I'm all for...uh....this thing.

Hate the name but will have an open mind, as has been said before don't see them messing up the aura around Braun or Asuka being defeated on a charity show.
|
Curt Hawkins HAS to be voted in
|
Quote:
|
Boom. Book it.
|
This is Dumb as Fuck!
|
Seems the voting for this show likely is going to be rigged since the WWE accidentally revealed who the mystery star from RAW will be in a recent poll.

20 minutes? Mixed tag team matches? Facebook live? $100k prize to charity?
Sounds dumb. Like WWE wants to get in on all those contests celebrities have and whoever wins donates said money to charity. Quote:

Quote:
|
Who would win in a tag team match?
Roman/Asuka or Brock Lesnar/Stephanie McMahon |
After seeing the Cenas vs the Mizes at Wrestlemania my main concern here is a simple doubt that WWE can pull off mixed matches at all.

I'm excited for anything that gives the ladies more time and spotlight

Could be a decent way to get male wrestlers over by pairing them up with hot female wrestlers. |

The matches will likely suck, but these dumb skits are fun.

My dream team of Braun/Bliss is a reality

Braun Strowman and Alexa Bliss actually make an adorable team.
|
The Miz & Asuka
and Goldust & Alicia Fox are both confirmed |
Quote:
|
Is this a tournament, or is it just a series of matches? Does anybody care?
|
I'd watch it if it were on the Network.
|
I care.
|
Bayley and Elias are a team, was going to be Samoa Joe but he's injured.
|
They should make/should have made this WWE’s answer to the G1.
|
Pretty sure I will not watch any of this.
|
Some of the teams are weird in terms of face/heel.
Like why is Nattie with Nakamura or Carmella with Big E and Becky Lynch with Sami Zayn? |
Holy shit, they actually ARE having everyone have a specific charity they're representing despite it being a predetermined contest.
Quote:
|
Probably in hope that fans will donate to their favorite teams charity.
|
After seeing the brackets, it looks like Miz and Asuka are gonna beat Braun and Alexa in the 2nd round, Braun and Alexa are gonna get voted back in "by the fans" and then they're gonna get their win back in the finals.
|
Okay so apparently each charity is getting $10k and the winning team is getting $100k.
That's better than just saying "hey here's 9 charities we've already decided are getting precisely dick" |
outcome still pretty obvious though
|
Quote:
|
The face/heel mismatches are annoying.

|
It's not for brand supremacy. It's for charity.

That being said, the fact that Asuka's first loss is probably gonna be in this thing is retarded. |
It is, but it's not like her win-loss record was going to segue into anything crucial on the main roster.
|
They were going blow their load on it in some terrible way anyway. Like when Charlotte had never lost at a ppv, then she just does randomly at one rather than building it up and making a big deal of it when she actually does lose.
|
Yeah, exactly. I don't really have high hopes for anyone to be booked fortunately.
|
This seems fun. No idea if I will remember to watch it but it's more BRAUN which is a good thing.
