It's hilarious to think that, 20 years ago, Shane was just some lackey used as a punching bag when the story called for it.

Now he's having competitive matches with the active roster, won a best in the world trophy and might be champ. Lmao what a catastrophe.

:nono:

When Verne wanted to put the AWA title on Greg, half of the booking committee threatened to walk out in protest. And Greg was at least a wrestler, just not a very charismatic one.

If only we had something like that now.

Jesus fucking Christ! That'd be painful to watch.

why not build him up the biggest that he can get? the person who beats him will actually have accomplished something.

Triple H's 15 title reign.

Bow down to the king!

Find it interesting that Bayley doesn't have her Smackdown Women's belt while Kofi still has his. Maybe its just WWE/Fox being lazy with the renders or some foreshadowing for Stomping Grounds.

Better than doing nothing with him

I could 100%, absolutely see them booking Shane to beat Kofi for the title.

Universal champion Baron Corbin and WWE champion Shane McMahon in the ring at the same time

That would be heat not seen in a long time.

To be fair this could have been good. Stick him with the Fashion Police and push them as a faction. Coulda been good. Alas.

Kayfabe wise he should get a title shot due to his win streak

I think a Shane run with the title would be awesome. He's one of the best performers they have right now. Might as well strike the iron while it's hot

This is better than the ad Fox has been running using John Cena

I figured it's just to irritate CM Punk

Jesus he hasn't lost a match in months. True insanity thrives in WWE creative.

ahahahahahahaha

Remember when Tyson Kidd and Yoshi Tatsu feuded on NXT over Kidd breaking Yoshi’s action figure?

Didn't Yoshi's action figure have it's own Twitter?

Welp, hope she had a Nintendo subscription... or all her saves are fuuuuuuuuuucked!

NXT came up with a pretty interesting idea to solve their issue of having way too much talent for their own benefit.


Also the booking of their Women's division has slowly become main roster quality bad in terms of direction. The recent set of tapings doing nothing to resolve that problem. Only difference is them not totally ignoring the division nor shoving certain stars down the throats of crowds like Vince & Creative do.

I'd say Io should have won the title at the last Takeover, but she shouldn't have been there in the first place. Should have gotten called up with Kairi to continue the Sky Pirates.

Was just thinking about what Disney+ is going to mean for the WWE Network come November. It's set to cost $6.99, which is cheaper than the WWE Network and it will have a lot better and more varied entertainment. I'm fairly certain that it's going to take a massive slice of the OTT subscription model market, which means that other services might be on the chopping block when it comes to considering the monthly entertainment budget. I doubt it's Netflix that is going to take most of the cuts.

I can't picture Disney + having any effect on the WWE Network what-so-ever.

Apples and Oranges.

I mean, when I canceled my WWE Network, I was definitely thinking about "I'd be happier subscribing to Disney+ when it comes out... or even Amazon Prime"

There's something off about adult men that watch Disney alone and it's a stigma we should all support.

You must be one of those people that think childless adults who go to Disney are ruining it for the children by making them wait in longer lines.

Stomping Grounds (1 week from Sunday) is not selling tix well at all

What is this company? "You aren't a super hero you are a super villian" No one talks like that.


Plz give Shane the title I want to see how awful this company can get.

Dayum....

TIL the infamous Michael Cole/Heidenreich moment happened because Vince had a dream about Michael Cole being raped

https://prowrestling.net/artman/publ...e1002316.shtml

Non sequitor - I was talking to a dad at my kid's soccer practice. He paid a lady $1,000 at Disney and she got them unlimited fast passes, skipped all lines, and mapped out each ride to "maximize" their time in the park.

Even if Disey bundles ESPN+ and Hulu with it? And WWE gets dropped from Hulu because Fox owns it (or at least drops RAW)

Also Disney Bought the company (BamTech) that ran WWE Network up until this January to help run Disney+/ESPN+ so in a way it's already affected WWE Network by causing them to hire a new company to run it (Endeavor Streaming)

Disney is in the $$$ biz and unless WWE performs poorly on HULU, which Disney is now the majority owner of, I doubt they'd care.

No they ruin it for children by trying to touch their arses

It's like an adult trying to swim in the kids only sessions.

There is no savoury reason.

I go to the movies by myself all the time, from Rated R to Pixar
