This feels like the most scripted thing I've heard from sami in a long while.

Fignuts 04-07-2023 09:47 PM

Already more wrestling than on the entire 3 hour raw. Triple h back in charge, baby.

They could’ve had Riddle’s return to save Sami be a massive surprise tonight

But they had him show up on Monday to be mean to the Miz

Supreme Olajuwon 04-07-2023 10:00 PM

The world will be a better place when Vince McMahon is dead

Fignuts 04-07-2023 10:09 PM

Lets not talk about Edge.

Why are we still talking about edge?

We had a hell in a cell. Its over.

Fignuts 04-07-2023 10:10 PM

Nuclear heat for Dom. Love it.

Fignuts 04-07-2023 10:11 PM

Going to make it so much sweeter when they finally reunite.

Fignuts 04-07-2023 10:11 PM

Hell yeah, Dom.

Fuck Bad Bunny. That loser.

xrodmuc316 04-07-2023 10:13 PM

That was a less hectic show than Raw, which makes sense if there was no Vince ripping up scripts after the show already started.

That said, it certainly felt like it was a Vince show more than anything flowing logically. Not quite a turn it off episode, but absolutely a read on the tablet with it on in the background episode.

Mr. Nerfect 04-07-2023 10:32 PM

Smackers was pretty great. The only thing that felt “weird” to me was the singles match between Ricochet and Ivar. It was good, but why not a tag match? But whatever. Liv Morgan & Shotzi kind of suck. I have a feeling Liv & Raquel are going to win the tag belts. I think Vince is going to subconsciously destroy everything Triple H built, even if Vince would have thought it was a good idea in the first place.

There’s been speculation that Roman isn’t going to work Backlash, but if they do The Bloodline vs. Owens, Zayn, Riddle and…Orton…that would be huge.

Things built up for next week aren’t stonkers hot, but I’m looking forward to seeing what Nakamura does. The way Michael Cole emphasized “King” makes me think Nakamura has a shot at winning King of the Ring. I’d have predicted Logan Paul, Cody Rhodes or Drew McIntyre, but Shin of the Ring works for me too. They should do something with him.

xrodmuc316 04-07-2023 11:30 PM

I still don't know about Orton. Back Fusion surgery is no joke, and I can't imagine giving RKO's is going to be a smart option even if he gets cleared.

Fignuts 04-07-2023 11:38 PM

Keep Riddle out of my bloodline angle, please.

Fignuts 04-08-2023 12:56 AM

Should have had shinsuke return and save sami instead of riddle.

Return of The Punt.

Mr. Nerfect 04-08-2023 07:23 AM

I don’t like Riddle, but I think his presence here was smart. I didn’t know he was taken out by Solo in story. Makes obvious sense to follow that up. But it promotes Raw and made him look more “meaty.” His Raw return was kind of tepid because he just came out like “Bro.” SmackDown emphasized him as a dude who will throw down and do the right thing. He definitely looked better here, imo. I like a serious Riddle more.

Maybe Orton’s back is too fucked. I haven’t followed the whole thing. I just kind of assumed “wrestlers being wrestlers” he’ll be back. I think the draft will illuminate things. Will be very interesting to see if guys like Orton and Big E are included.

#1-norm-fan 04-08-2023 08:35 AM

Imagine if Orton has to retire and the last member of Evolution to compete in a wrestling ring ends up being Ric Flair.

Supreme Olajuwon 05-05-2023 08:28 PM

Puerto Rico crowd is fire. As good as any crowd WWE has had. Love it.

Fignuts 05-13-2023 12:12 AM

Heel asuka lets fucking go.


Sami at NoC is wild.

XL 05-13-2023 02:46 AM

Oh shit yeah. Didn’t even catch that.

XL 05-13-2023 04:40 AM

Still not onboard with even having a smackdown side of the brackets for a Raw championship but Styles vs Rollins should be great.

Fignuts 05-13-2023 07:55 PM

Triple H: Roman can't compete for the new title, because he's drafted to smackdown.

Also Triple H: Smackdown wrestlers will also compete for the new title.

Sepholio 05-13-2023 10:57 PM

Had nothing to do with him being on SD. He can't enter because he's already a world champion and the end goal is to have 2 champs again.

How are people STILL confused by this? Ridiculous.

Fignuts 05-13-2023 11:36 PM

Nah, I know thats why. Just think its funny he specifically said roman can't compete because he's on smackdown, when he could have said what you just did.

Head cannon.

xrodmuc316 06-02-2023 09:02 PM

Lacey Evans keeps getting hotter, and they keep putting her on TV even less. Lame

Fenix122 06-02-2023 09:53 PM

I feel like Jimmy is getting a spike

Lock Jaw 06-03-2023 03:19 AM

Just saw that they gave Roman a new ugly title that is just a smaller palette-swaped version of the current WWE/Universal belts.

Also watched the Bloodline clip on the YouTubes... super weird that they have just swapped Jimmy and Jey's characters... unless the plan is to have them beat on Jimmy and take him out and Jey finally snaps and becomes Main Event Jey again and fights Roman....

XL 06-03-2023 04:51 AM

They’re still calling it the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship? I guess nobody is disputing that he’s the WWE Universal Champion but then we should be saying Seth is the Undisputed World Heavyweight Champion too.

Sting Fan 06-03-2023 07:44 AM

Soooo Roman gets to carry another belt? Or doing away with the multiple belts?

screech 06-03-2023 10:20 AM

The new title looks gross

Its not even new, just a different color, which looks far more yellow than gold :rofl:

XL 06-03-2023 12:34 PM

The belt says Undisputed Champion on it, actually on it. They’re rolling with that as the name :lol:

xrodmuc316 06-03-2023 11:57 PM

HOLY SHIT YALL! I might need to start watching Rampage!

WTF is that :rofl:

Fignuts 06-04-2023 12:27 AM

I don't understand the logic of what they were meant to be doing there.

Why would you not just kick the other dude in the stomach?

XL 06-04-2023 03:00 AM

That’s some top tier artistic combat.

DaveWadding 06-05-2023 11:24 PM

Really enjoyed Rampage this week. Vikingo / Komander / Dralistico absolute insanity, and I always have to appreciate any Shibata matches that end up on TV. Can't believe they've got him wrestling at full strength after all these years and that injury. Love to see it.

Mr. Nerfect 06-06-2023 01:01 PM

Hahahahahahahaha!

Mr. Nerfect 06-06-2023 01:02 PM

That actually crosses the line into it’s not even bad anymore — it’s hilarious.
