Possibly. Doesn't mean they wouldn't do it, though.

When has something being stupid ever stopped the WWE from going through with it?

Apparently the edit made to show wasn't related to the Sami-Owens incident but instead Shane McMahon messing up reading crowd reactions which made his segment awkward live.

Thought it was weird that he mentioned Daniel Bryan would be back next week, and the fans cheered........ must have cut out the boos and skipped forward to them cheering again......

Cool as the duo is, Owens being politically aligned with Zayn is going to be trouble for him. Already is, clearly.

Am I missing something, because the fans did boo when Shane said Bryan would be back next week.

They are hard up for writing talent. Not so much in ring talent. In ring talent can and should be a revolving door to keep things fresh.
Writing talent is so bad that you could put an infinite amount of monkeys in a room with an infinite amount of typewriters. At any point, you can go into the room, look at what's on the wall, and it would be a better, more coherent show than what WWE puts out. |

Crazy how many theories and rumors popped up in the two or three days since this story “broke”
After all that, looks like they’ll be back on TV next week, per PWI |

Hate to agree with Juan, but when you're right, you're right.
IMO, their promo last week has "worked shoot" written all over it, and it's pretty clear they're going to have them cost Team SDL the traditional 5-on-5. Preferably, some sort of scenario causing Shane to be eliminated via pin/submission/DQ/count-out as the last SDL competitor remaining. #STORYTELLING |

Meltz is saying that some of his sources are saying that Sami, Owens and New Day all thought they did what they were supposed to and it was all mis-communication.

Yeah, for better or worse, the word was that Owens especially was very upset he was being sent home, so a miscue might be the most logical outcome. Still, if so, seems like a drastic overreaction when the tour is already missing advertised talent left and right.

If it really was just a miscue, then yes, it was an overreaction.

No, i agree. It just reminds me of Vince totally overreacting to Titus O’Niel grabbing him and suspending him for 60 days lol

Titus O'Neil has been on the main roster for 7 and a half years and has not improved one iota in the ring during that span despite working with some of the best wrestlers in the world and having numerous resources available to him.
He's got a great look, is charismatic, is a genuinely nice dude who the company feels comfortable involving in PR initiatives, and he's African American. That he hasn't been pushed to the moon is a pretty big indicator of how god awful he is in the ring. |

That he hasn't been pushed to the moon is an indication that he is, in fact, African American.

I actually think WWE would like to have a prominent African American star at the top of the card at this point. But Titus sucks in the ring. Apollo Crews and Jason Jordan have all the charisma of a dry erase board. Shelton Benjamin is 42 years old. Rich Swann and Cedric Alexander are in the cruiserweight division and probably won't ever get out
The clearest answer is to push the shit out of Big E. The guy is only 31, looks like a million bucks, is bursting with personality, and does things a man his size shouldn't be able to do in the ring. I get that they might be hesitant to have him go solo given that he's in a tag team that moves a shitload of merch....but shit. The man checks off every box. And just because they push him doesn't mean they have to throw away New Day. They can still be a stable with Kofi and Woods being in the tag division as E pursues a solo career. |
