Second pregnant superstar in the WWE to hold a championship.

I dont think she's having a baby. If she is its terrible timing with the big acting gig

Seth’s failure to wrap it up might cost Becky a milestone as she’s like a month and a half away from passing Trish for longest women’s title reign since the 80s.

Who wants to bet if she is pregnant that they have a the baby isn't Seth's storyline when she returns?

Sounds like the Wildcard Era is back too and will be announced tonight

:(:(:(

Sami Zayn likely getting stripped of the IC Title as well since he's likely not going to be back anytime soon. That or another "temporary champion" deal like they're doing with the Cruiserweight title.

:n:

Only good thing to come from that period was Post Wrestling's reviews of the shows and the gradual toll on their minds trying to make the swaps work each week via WWE Logic since WWE couldn't follow a simple rule.

If that is true, Vince will never trust a woman as a top star again.

Oooooooh yea

He'd probably be more pissed at Rollins for the huge sums of money he just cost the company.

Auska transformed into Becky

"The Decision Makers"

:lol:

You got 🤰 pregnant 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏

Becky very emotional

ASUKA R CHAMP

SURPRISE!

So weird.

:lol: Asuka

Asuka is the greatest

New Champ Asuka

Vince thinking of that DiTech commercial right now.

"Lost another one to pregnancy."

Asuka getting more of a push now running around as some kind of weird Vince McMahon Japanese stereotype dancing around goofy gimmick lol.

I dont see why Auska couldn't have done a sneak attack roll up cash in on Becky to win the belt

Well between pregnancy and maternity leave that’s Becky gone for at least a year. Whether she returns or not probably depends on the state of the world this time next year and if movie offers are still on the table by then.

That whole segment was way more awkward than it should have been for a pregnancy announcement.

roman is basically out for the same reason

They should have just announced Becky was pregnant earlier and made the MITB match straight up for the women's belt.

That segment was nice. Then Asuka opened up the happy meal and found a million dollars inside it instead of a toy and went bonkers.

now I'm thinking how hilarious it would have been if Corbin pulled down the womens case and became Womens champion

I wish Asuka would dance with her ass exposed by me lol

Reys not dead

Everybody but the Dad showing up to give Becky congrats :rofl:

When did Becky get preg? This was so random.

Wonder if WWE is going to fast track a couple of call-ups from NXT to boost RAW's women's division now that they lost a big star for the foreseeable future and give Asuka more quality face stars to work with.

NXT has more than enough quality depth to take a hit on their Women's division.

I actually was sorta annoyed by how much they pushed Becky and I prefer Asuka... so good news for everyone except Vince.

Lashley vs. Humberto was pretty meh for a DQ match.

this segment is dumb, re: profits and vikings

Basketball huh

AEW is probably relieved Nyla Rose is their Womens champion

:| Street Profits vs. Viking Raiders in a basketball game.

No wonder the Revival wanted to bolt from WWE as soon as possible.

Viking Raiders don’t know what a basketball is but drive cars

Oh shit! Did I miss a cash in? Oh well.

WWE going to replay that Becky segment 80,000 more times tonight

No, the MITB match was for the women's title since Becky is preggo and prob never coming back full-time again

:lol: they kept the gym weights choking spot from the Edge vs Orton match in this video package highlights.

No interest in the rest of RAW now that Bex's big announcement is outta the way

What was the purpose of having a Last Man Standing match if Orton and Edge are just going to wrestle again and probably as a regular match?

So this is gonna be a Becky heel turn right? She's not really pregnant. I'm not watching, just looking at twitter.

So how does making Toazwa a jobber to the stars help NXT and their Interim Cruiser tournament?

If anything it makes everyone in Tozawa's tournament group look even worse by comparison.

I feel like they are going to reform rated RKO tbh. They'll suddenly be cool again now that they beat each other to death.

Fair enough. Would dislike it if she competed in her current state. Happy for Asuka. The true MVP of 2020.

I don't think anyone cares about 205 Live or the Interim Cruiser tournament, to be honest.

A champ vs. champ feud would have been pretty great but WWE's recent booking of Zelina's crew took out all of my interest on wanting to see this feud restart.

Speak for yourself, weirdo. People do care about quality in-ring competition.

Is their plan of making Andrade look strong to job him to Drew multiple times?

Zelina yelling "Drew" in a Scottish accent at ringside always cracks me up

That was a good match. But why though?

205 Live wishes they could have gotten in on the action but NXT has been hogging all the matches that have been among the most entertaining on NXT in recent weeks.

Tozawa's booking is pretty much another instance of WWE's creative being a mess in general.

:| Drew vs. King Corbin next week.

The Wildcard era kicks off, of course, with Baron Corbin

No major wrestling promotion knows how to handle their guys on their own shows, let alone other shows.

I don't have a problem with them ending the roster split. It sucks. That being said, if they have Drew just tear through all the heels like that, they're going to have no one left...

I thought for a second Drew was about to accept a challenge from Jinder Mahal.

I'm sure that match will happen at some point.

I just hope it lasts no more than 5 seconds.

Uhg Lana is awful.

Outside of TNA/Impact for long stretches of time, nobody else is even close to WWE's level of ineptitude when it comes to handling their own talent.

owenbrown marking out r/n for the IIconics

I remember when owenbrown posted about how he won tickets to WWE LIVE and wore his IIConics shirt and danced in the crowd

AEW brought in Brodie Lee as the leader of The Dark Order dressed with fake zippers taped to his gear. It's definitely a wash.

so much hotness

I see the IIconics have not improved in the ring while away

I still dig the IIconics theme.

yeesh. acting like MITB match was live for what reason?

I got thrown off the roof. It's not a big deal, though.

Women's tag match was decent.

Not sure if the IIconics actually got better during their long break from tv or they only look better because Nikki and Bliss barely have been good in the ring as a team.

That wasn't as bad as I had expected, agreed.

Pretty Ricky. Oh great.

hehehhee

Remember when Ricochet was wrestling Brock Lesnar a couple months ago?

I feel like R-Truth's biggest comedic inspiration is Kel Mitchell.

Not sure R-Truth giving his saliva filled fake teeth to the ref counts as following WWE's coronavirus health safety rules.

Lashley and MVP is a good pairing right now.

this show is a mess

...so AJ isn't done with the Undertaker?

WTF, Shayna Bazler is the greatest! Lol

Is Shayna wearing make up tonight? Still gross, but looks different.

I had no idea becky was pregnant, shocked they have barely mentioned it

Fucking love that Shayna promo.

Wonder how much of that promo by Shayna was written by Vince considering some of the digs in it regarding her career and star status.

Yeah, they are gonna love taking Stunners from Tony Khan and that horrible ref, or getting beat up by a dude with his hands in his pockets when running away from a golf cart. #FTR

Aleister Black is still kinda cool as fuck.

WWE wasted a great opportunity to come up with something really cool as a way to bring back Black after last night's roof toss.

Right, they should have built up his return for months then brought him back doing skits where he gets mad at people sneezing like Vince McMahon :roll:

Rollins theme sounds very familiar to something I've heard before in a game but can't remember at the moment. Like the start of it feels its from one of the Metriod Prime games.

Seth's new theme fits his current character better, I'll say.

Too bad he's too upset to even wet his hair tonight.

seth trying to push his stomach out to look bloated
