That "Show Up & Win" shirt Reigns is wearing is pretty cool.
His shirts since coming back have been a great touch for his new heel persona. |
The Tribal Chief thing is fucking dumb
|
:lol: at Reigns just randomly giving a title shot and a Hell in a Cell match on the spot.
That might have been the most random announcement of a Hell in a Cell match in WWE history. |
:lol: at WWE botching the cut to commercial.
Don't think they were meant to do it that abruptly and while Jey was about to leap off the table. Like WCW Era "we out of time" style. |
Styles vs. Jey Uso was pretty good.
So far this first hour is on track to the best since maybe the time WWE had that Saudi plane incident and needed NXT to bail them out for a SD show. |
:| at next week's show having a court segment for Otis MitB contract.
|
Morrison getting the squash treatment from Otis is pretty sad.
Hope he's enjoying whatever WWE is paying him since his current run has been mostly a big disappointment. |
Whelp if Kevin Owens gets drafted to SD, he already has his first feud set with the Fiend.
And vice versa if Fiend ends up going to the red brand instead. Then again that probably would be better considering he'd fit in very well with his spooky red lights routine. |
Riddle looks stupid
|
6-man tag match was pretty good despite WWE going overboard with the fake crowd noise during it.
|
IC title match was pretty good.
This week's episode was pretty good overall. The show did sort of peak after the first 40-45 minutes in terms of entertainment though. I give Carmella's new Emmalina-like gimmick a month or two tops before WWE gets bored of it or it hits unsavable dud territory. |
Rules announced for the suuuuuuuuuuuuper important draft. Same approach as last year from the looks of things. Two pools and picks being divvied up over two nights.
I'm sure it won't all be ignored in a week!!! Quote:
|
Hopefully they learned from last year to shuffle the order of the pick announcements before Smackdown airs since last year the list they sent for the first night was in exact order of the picks.
|
Sheamus on the board to get drafted twice.
|
Gonna laugh when the first "round" of draft picks is Drew/Asuka/Seth to Raw and Roman/Bayley to SD.
EARTH SHATTERING LANDSCAPE CHANGE! |
Potential spoilers for tonight's Draft show in regards to certain big stars moving brands.
SPOILER: show |
Big shock was New Day getting broken up
I figure that will last until they decide to not push Big E and then they will be reunited My best guess is Raw will keep the Street Profits and have SP vs New Day to unify the tag belts and send them on both brands. Which could also negate splitting up New Day if they win and can be on SD every week anyway Of course they moved Bianca Belair to SD so they could move SP to SD. Itll be funny the RAW tag team champions on SD and vice versa |

Mostly the same people isn't the same thing as EXACTLY the same people, same aliens, and same dinosaurs each and every week though right? :rofl:
|
Maybe if AEW held a draft having almost everyone staying on the same show or brand.
Was going to include a Gillberg & Goldberg joke but not enough space was left in the thread header to pull it off. |
Opening talkies with Triple H & Steph was decent.
Same for the all-out brawl that happened afterwards. |

Next week's show on FS1 is going to be interesting in regards to how big of a drop they are going to suffer in viewership.
Last time it happened, SD went from 2.4 million to 880k because of baseball taking over their FOX spot that week. |
Did Cole just say "Jeff Jarrett" can't believe what he just saw instead of Hardy??
|
Lars vs. Jeff Hardy was decent at best.
On the bright side, was completly expecting them to do some lame DQ or non-finish to kick off the new season and instead they did an actual finish for the match. |

I have a feeling that there is a long term plan for Big E and The New Day. Feel like he will go into next years draft as the champion. Either he or Kofi/Xavier get traded, putting them back on the same show. Kofi and Xavier try to reunite with him and he suddenly doesnt want anything to do with them because he think he is better than they are, leading to a feud between Big E and Kofi with Xavier trying to play peacemaker.
|
Did the WWE put all the blacks on one roster so they can wrestle eachother to death?
|
6-man tag match was pretty good despite being a bit too long in the tooth. That match and the pre-match promo by New Day ate up almost 30 minutes or so of the show.

If the rumors about Big E becoming the top face star of SD are true, he's going to have a lengthy period as a major face star before any potential heel turn happens. |
:lol: at the same guy showing up on multiple screens behind Bryan.
Wonder how many of these people in the virtual crowd are actually watching the show right now and how many are just past fan videos being played back based on that recent report about the video wall shenanigans from NXT. |
Forgot where I read it first but Street Profits managed to become WWE's newest Triple Crown guys despite them not actually winning one of the tag belts.
Won the NXT and RAW tag belts but only got the SD tag belts via swapping belts with New Day which is how their historic Triple Crown moment happened. |
:| SD tag title match ending via no contest.
:lol: at Ric Flair randomly showing up on one of the fan crowd screens. |
The more he keeps showing up on WWE shows, the more I keeping thinking that Adam Pearce really does look like a young bald version of HBK.
For a season premiere show, its not really doing anything interesting to build up or give a strong reason to bother watching next week's show despite not being a bad show so far this week. Same problem last year's FOX premiere show had where it was entertaining but did a piss poor job building up the next week's show. |
