The WWE Championship Match at the Greatest Royal Rumble event ended in shocking fashion when both competitors were counted out by the official while brawling around the ringside area. That didn’t stop The Phenomenal One from unleashing his rage on The Artist, pummeling him with a steel chair and a Phenomenal Forearm on the arena floor. Though they’re facing off again for the title this Sunday at WWE Backlash, Nakamura is demanding a public apology from the champion for his actions in Saudi Arabia. Will The Artist get his wish? Find out tonight on SmackDown LIVE at 8/7 C on USA Network!

Really expected them to lean into the "PAIGE HERE" meme right there.

Still in Montreal.

Didn't know they doubled booked this week.

"No Disqualification"

Setting the over-under on dick punches at 4.

Nakamura must be in heaven right now, he can openly low blow Styles nuts into mush and not worry about a ref calling for the bell.

They started doing it a bit last year but are going to do it way more often this year and beyond to cut back on travel costs.

Hollywood Ninja?

Makes total sense. I'm getting the impression it'll happen in "big cities".

KIRA 05-01-2018 08:17 PM

Pretty sure Samoa Joe has yet to be beaten by Reigns I would like it very much if they kept that going

Lock Jaw 05-01-2018 08:17 PM

Being General Manager is such a weird job. You have a week in between shows, but all you do is book some midcard matches, while leaving a lot of your show and your main event open. Then you just "let things happen" and book the rest of your show, including your main event, on unplanned stuff that happens on your show.

You understand that generally the wrestlers are going to do their own thing so you book around their chaos

The Miz & Shelton Benjamin.

Such an odd pairing.

As a former GM, I am well aware. I can still find it weird, though. Like, we never even had a backup plan for filling the card if all the rasslers somehow behaved and no spontaneous match opportunities arose.

That's what 8 man tag matches are for player holla
(You don't have a plan so you find a way to feature everybody you're going to show tonight and have it last long enough that you'll have an actual show of some sort)

There's a guy in the front row trying to alert the WWE to his impending sex change given their new pro-lgbt stance they should really hop on this.

I wasn't really paying attention at the time, but didn't Roman win the IC Title from The Miz? Unless it was a Triple Threat or something.

Peyton being reduced to just terrible impressions is pretty bad for her. She did it every so often in NXT but never as the centerpiece of her character.

Its like Matt's "Woken" character having the terrible laugh be the main focus.

Bryan's been going hard as hell since he got back

Emperor Smeat 05-01-2018 08:40 PM

Is it actually possible to get an infection from getting chopped a lot in the chest?

Could see that be a concern if Bryan's chest was oozing blood from an open wound but going to assume he only had some serious bruising at worst.

Well, everyone's probably shot from creative to the roster. WrestleMania, Super Rumble, and Backlash all in a month's span.

I'm inclined to let it slide. But it's gotta pick back up next week.

Paige probably wasn't able to hoodwink Angle on making more terrible trades to also clean up the Creative side of the Blue Brand.
