Decent card. There’s lots I like and bits I’d pass on.
I’m not sure a UK show is the setting for the end of the Reigns reign. Or that Drew is the man to do it. I got the impression Lashley/Ciampa will be a TV rivalry. Not down for Ziggler and Styles as a team. I don’t know what you go with Ziggler at this point but not this. Wasn’t Ziggler doing something with Theory?? |
Is Ziggy a face again?
|
Yeah.
|
Lashley vs Ciampa is planned for Raw next week. Nothing to say they can’t run it again at the UK show though.

I thought the same about Lashley/Ciampa. Didn’t know it was going to be on PPV next week. I like Lashley’s streak at stadium shows though. Wouldn’t mind this being elongated somehow. Agree with Drew. I’m not there. I’m just not sure they can beat him in the UK. Well, I guess there’s always a way. But it would feel like modern WWE where very little matters if we’re just asked to accept this loser. But I wouldn’t put it past them. |

Funny thing is William Regal really did start training and wrestling in the UK when he was only 15, but was still working under his real name (Darren Matthews)
Didn't take on the Steve Regal name until he'd come to the US in the early 90s, and the other Regal had retired. |

Random thought: If the WWE had of never done the roster split in 2002, we could have had a tag team division of Angle & Benoit, Edge & Rey, Los Guerreros, Booker & Goldust and Vitamin C. I could have seen Heyman putting together an ECW team of RVD & Tajiri which would have been fun as shit too.
