LMAO I love you for that picture up there Slik. You are the man lolololol

Trying to think if he debuts during a match which would it be....My guess would be Kross v McIntyre because I think Bray will go to SD. If he's going to RAW though maybe Finn v Edge.

I am guessing Alexa gets left behind alone in the ring post Bianca/Bayley and that's the spot

Oh yeah I forgot she'd prob be out there, true that.

They should team up with Kross/Scarlett and her and Alexa can scissor while Bray and Kross cut promos and stuff.

WWE extreme hornyposting rn

I might not even be able to watch live so I might have to check here/twitter on my phone to keep up

Are WWE PPV's always on Saturdays now?

He may not come out for anybody, might just get his own segment.

Would be such a good Prank if it was Bo instread of Bray :rofl:

They should dim the lights and when people put up their phone lights have Elias come out. Make out he’s the return until Bray comes out.

I don’t think it’s hard and fast. Hell in a Cell and Backlash were both on a Sunday this year.

I knew Bo Dallas had started up a real estate business for life after wrestling, but for whatever reason I didn’t know it was with Liv Morgan and that the two are dating. Given he’s only 32 and Triple H seemed to have big plans for him, I can see a return being on the cards if he wants it and is in shape.

What if the white rabbit is me, Lock Jaw?

Even though I hate her, Alexa Bliss can still make my boner ache.

It's going to be Bray. But if it is anyone but Bray, the crowd is going to shit all over that person.

Riddle Rollins should be good
Bianca Bayley could be good but I dunno how rusty Bayley is. Bianca’s big money matches have all been stonkers though so I’m optimistic
Donnybrook should be fun
Liv Rousey I have low expectations
Edge Balor I dunno. I Quit matches are hard to book properly.
Drew Kross we’ll see. Expecting shenanigans. Hopefully it’s violent.

I’ve heard it’s Bastion Booger.

What if the white Rabbit is Bad Bunny.

Oh God now it seems to oblivious

I hope we get Adam Rose's music, whooaaa waa waa waa waaa whooooooaaaaaaa waa waa waa waa waa waaaahhhhhhhaaaahhhhwhoooooooooaaa

OH SHIT SOMEBODY ACTUALLY CRACKED IT!!!

Hacking the show now. Can’t wait to see Bo Dallas.

I unironically want Bo Dallas back. He was excellent.

It’s weird that Liv Morgan has seemingly ended up in a similar situation to him when he was NXT Champion.

It’s too specific to guess, but I wouldn’t be surprised if Bray Wyatt returns and The Fiend is separate with Bo under the mask so they can have their cake and eat it too.

How about Randy Orton returns to help Riddle win and then Wyatt returns to get revenge on him.

I don’t expect Orton back so soon, although if he is cleared, an RKO on Rollins after the fight pit would be fun. Rollins can be bickering with Cormier and Orton can come in and drill him and the faces can all celebrate.

Asuka and Bianca Belair would have better matches, but I’m expecting a heel turn from Alexa. Buuuut…maybe it’s both? Damage Control are going to need partners for War Games.

Another hacking

The potential for good action is there, but I think almost every match would actually benefit from being a straight forward singles match.

Been really impressed by Ludwig Kaiser.

Just had the thought that Bray Wyatt might target Edge. For no other reason than he seems like the sort of guy that would request working with Bray. I hope I’m wrong, but I can see Edge beating Balor and then Bray Wyatt coming out for him.

Orrrr…maybe it’s a Mania program? Seems like the sort of thing they’d do.

Would be cool if they added a bonus match of Sami Zayn (w/ Paul Heyman) vs. Drew Gulak.

Or just have the White Rabbit interrupt a match earlier in the show as a red herring. Take the head off and it’s someone like T Bar. Then in the main event Wyatt comes out.

What if the White Rabbit is Alexa Bliss but she's the Street Profits new snow bunny?

I wince everytime Ridge does a power move like that because of the Big E injury. It would take a lot of trust for dudes to trust their bodies with him after that.

I’m still rooting for my Elias swerve. Kevin Owens is attacked backstage. Sami Zayn is teased as the potential culprit. That leads to a Zayn vs. Drew Gulak match (Gulak working as an official now). Elias comes out later and says Pittsburgh is better, plays a song about Philly being shit, brags about getting revenge for his brother, then it goes to a White Rabbit teaser video. Elias is confused and asks if it’s Ezekiel and then Bray Wyatt comes out and kills him. Has a show-long mystery that ties everything together.

He's still Pete Dunne to me damnit.

Gunther and Imperium are so good... really glad Vince McMahon wasn't able to fully destroy them

same...

Gunther is probably the best right now.

I don’t disagree that Pete Dunne is a better name than “Butch” but it’s weird how we get attached to names as fans. Pete Dunne is exactly the sort of name we’d mock if WWE assigned him one after we got used to him being Tommy Smith on the indies or whatever.

Call that match Seph’s mom, because it was tons of fun.

Think his real name is Peter England.

Great opener, banger as the kids say.

Yeah it is. Such a perfect real name for a British wrestler.

John Morrison went by John Hennigan for Tough Enough, but that’s just because he didn’t want to use his real name: John United States of America.

Pretty good choice to open any PPV.

Actually do wish the WWE would re-hire Morrison again. Just have him and Ricochet wrestle each other every week on NXT at least.

Bring back Melina to do a jealous ex-girlfriend gimmick. Maybe stick her with Los Lotharios and put them against Morrison & Ricochet.

Bella Porch sounds like the Billie Eilish we have at home.

Agreed but I'm not opposed to a name change though. I'm believe I'm one of the few who prefer Gunther to Walter. But like you said we get attached to the name and the performer, not just the performer sometimes.

Sells itself :lol:

I’m used to Gunther now and prefer it too.

Ludwig Kaiser and Giovanni Vinci are almost exactly the same age to the day.

Obligatory "I love would to see Liv get extreme" post.

I can see a Ronda quick win here

I think Liv is going to retain. I think they’ve got too much in this developing character of Liv’s.

I wouldn’t be shocked if Ronda wins, but I think they’re just going to be having too much with this Liv thing.

I wouldn’t want this for him as a first choice, but bringing in Bo Dallas as Liv’s supportive partner could be hilarious.

BoLiv in yourself.

Did Liv just no sell a baseball bat

Wild

The entire Liv vs Rousey fued as a whole has been suprisingly good.

BoLiv would be a perfect Mixed Match Challenge team name lol

It would make sense to extend Damage Control to including male members. LA Knight would be a good pick now that he’s shed the gimmick Vince McMahon assigned him.

It’s not for me, but I can understand why people find it engaging.

I will say that Liv swings a chair harder than Hulk Hogan, I'm confident in that.

Well ok then

I mean im also grading it on a curve. Based on Rhonda's inexperience and how absolutely god awful liv was just a year ago.

When I say it’s not for me, I just mean care factor. I can intellectually appreciate how Liv’s grown into the role and is actually a surprisingly complex character and this has helped Ronda shine in certain ways.

Morgan’s laughter - wonder where that is leading too

That wasn’t very good. But it’s over. Which is good.

I’d be happy for a Ronda & Shayna tag team run, honestly.

They almost had Daddy Ass cut completely out of that DX promo but there were still some glances of him

Maybe Shayna joins Damage Control and Ronda ends up on the face team at War Games opposite her.

Bray, Bo and Liv Morgan.

Billy Gunn should be the first WWE/AEW crossover. He’s earned that.

If you dial back Bray and make him a wrestler with an eclectic personality, there’s no reason you can’t do that. They probably all hang around together anyway.

Horny

I think Bray is coming back primarily to Raw. I think he’ll go after Edge for that “big feud.” Bo to SmackDown to be with Liv. I can see him doing the NXT gimmick again. More of a push than when it became complete comedy though. I can see matches with Ricochet and Shinsuke Nakamura.

He can be aligned with Alpha Academy when they work SmackDown too.

Is Gunther wrestling again?

Are they doing the SmackDown matches first, Raw matches next thing?

Can definitely see Edge and Balor having the main event.

Seriously man, how Vince of all people not love Karrion Kross instantly?

Drew and Kross definitely an all time handsome matchup

The lady on the outside is fine too

I think they said earlier on the pre show that Riddle and Rollins are going on last, I may have misheard though I was killing some pizza

Oh fuck, yeah — that makes sense too.

He’s a bit bland. I can see Vince seeing him as an inch too short and about 20lbs too light to play the sort of guy he is trying to be too. Plus, Vince would want to fuck Scarlett and probably wanted to cuck the shit out of Kross.

Almost 0% chance of this happening, but imagine if they did a complete swerve and Scarlett turned on Kross and joined with Drew because she likes his giant sword.

Drew is “really good” but he’s boring.

And Scarlett as well, that's Vinnie Mac's wheelhouse.

He feels way less than the sum of his parts.

I wouldn’t move him back to NXT full-time, but I wouldn’t mind a thing where he offers to dip his toes back in while also working SmackDown because he wants to sharpen his skills or whatever. Give him the edge of being the big fish in the small pond and maybe have other faces not like him being around. I dunno, he needs something.

Getting rid of Scarlett was way more shocking.

Maybe Chad Gable can make Drew interesting?

Gunther and McIntyre would be a good match, but I’d worry they’d put McIntyre over.

My wife is watching with me tonight and she barely ever watches wrestling, and she asked me a legit question. Why doesn't Drew just use his big sword and stab Kross if it's extreme rules? I told her it's a fair question lol

I think Drew just tried the Paqui one chip challenge

Lol, it is. When I see clips of Drew, it’s always weird to see him charging the heels with it. Like Drew is going to decapitate them on a PG show without issue. So weird.

Scarlett works for me brother!

WWE should make a video game where you play as Drew McIntyre slicing up wrestlers with his giant sword.

Good shit pal, good shit

Got a feeling Karrion Kross might end up “signing with Raw” or something to get him onto the other show. He seems like a much more natural fit there, in my opinion.
