I'd be fine with it as well. Maybe some of the veterans that turned them down would be interested in a Royal Rymbke spot at least.

If the Rumble is 4 hours they should totally do separate rumbles for RAW and SD. Or not because thats be a rare co mingling opportunity for both brands.
Maybe go to 40 though. |
Yeah, part of the intrigue of the rumble during the brand split, was the fact that the winner could challenge for either title. 2 rumbles would take that away, along with the afformentioned crossover potential.
Fully expecting the Shield to reunite during the match, now that they're all faces. |
How are you going to fill the other 3 hours of the Rumble. Its bad enough now at 2. Can't have many people pulling double duty. You could have 2 title matches and 2 women's matches maybe. Maybe its be a good time for an hour Iron Man match..

Hope the WWE gives the Cruiserweight Division some more time to "settle in". Competing in front of "hardcore" audience is so different when compared to the "mainstream" audience that watches Monday Night RAW.

Even if it's just for a cup of coffee in NXT, Daniels deserves to have a WWE paycheck before he hangs it up

who's that bald guy in the video?

Christopher Daniels

Yeah he is Curry Man. Used it as a comedy gimmick.

Just learned he was Dos from the Los Conquistadors during the Hardys/E&C feud.

How is WWE in talks to buy TNA not a thread?

I'm excited for the cruiserweight division, not a fan of the "mood lighting" and how they make it all appear so CWC on Raw, especially when they're being ordered to shake hands and the whole raising the victor's hand etc. Hopefully once they're a bit settled they'll just nicely integrate with the main roster. Could see Neville and Neese having some great matches or making a great team.
|
According to the Observer, WWE getting interested in buying TNA again is due to Billy Corbin's bid to buy the company taking longer than expected.
TNA basically needs money now to continue tapings or else they have to shut down a bit and any official move by Corbin to buy the company will still need weeks work of official paperwork done. Making things a bit worse for TNA and Corbin is supposedly ppv providers are not taking orders for the upcoming ppv since they are unsure if it will even happen. |
Cruiserweight division just seems weired to me really how they are presenting them. Don't like that they change everything to purple for their matches. Also the hand shaking and hand raising was fine in the CWC but on Raw it just feels out of place. Also feels weird that they brought back the cruiserweight division and the Universal title doesnt seem to be a heavyweight title.
|
Think the problem is like with NXT, WWE puts in little real effort and just assumes everyone watched the CWC or word of mouth is enough to spread the hype for the Cruiser division.
They've done a good job with the hype videos but right now it only feels special because the WWE says so and not because it was gradually built that way. |

I've seen things I like in Baron Corbin. He seems to get certain aspects of the business. He doesn't have much by way of charisma, or even this "presence" they like to talk about though. He's absolutely dreadful on the mic too.
You obviously can't do the same gimmick, but this a guy who could desperately use some sort of Undertaker-esque dressing. I don't know what his thing is, but if they can tap into the things that he's got that what he doesn't completely erodes, they might have someone they can plug into main events without as many people groaning. |
TNA invasion storyline
Complete with the return of the Main Event Mafia minus Scott Steiner |
More likevthe retirement home mafia though

The last match overall though was a Tag Team Match.
Darren Young/Neville vs Curtis Axel/Titus O'Neil on Superstars two weeks ago. Darren Young & Neville won the match. |

Why did they even do the "best of seven" series if it was going to end in a friggin' draw? Just have an eighth match since this is gonna lead to one anyway.

Bye Bye Mr. Ziggles.

That John Cena promo on Dean Ambrose is pretty sweet. I don't really like him talking about the lack of credibility of Ambrose's reign, but the other stuff is really good.
|
As with all things music-related, your mileage and tastes may vary, but the full version of Obsolete by Jeff Hardy (Peroxwhy?gen) is actually (surprisingly?) really good. Not just as a wrestling theme, either. I've been enjoying it just as a song.

According to the sheets, WWE's offer to buy TNA was really low but had terms not allowing Billy Corgan nor Dixie Carter to start a new wrestling company for a long time. Might be the same terms WWE gave for the WCW buyout in regards to Ted Turner.
Looks like they just want the tape library and nothing else of importance. Meanwhile on TNA's side, wrestlers are already deeply worried the upcoming ppv won't be occuring since TNA has started to cancel travel plans and bookings for certain wrestlers involved. |
Corgan was on Busted Open today and said everyone was still traveling for BFG.
It was a good interview he is a lot more knowledgeable about wrestling than I thought. |
Sin Cara gets generic mexican theme. Should have remixed his old chanting theme. Would have at leadt been unique.
|
You know, just once, I'd like for a talented, name foreigner to go to New Japan and turn down Bullet Club, and fight for the company. Seems like if you have round eyes, you automatically are in.
Feel like Ryback would be good in that role. |
I like the guy under the mask, but I kind of feel like the Sin Cara gimmick is dead. Any mystique it originally had has been beaten down and out of it. If he came out as an obnoxious heel "big deal" luchadore with a grand entrance and announcements that talked about his amazing charity work, I might change my tone. But I have no hope for the actual gimmick as it stands.
I'd like to see TJ Perkins beat both Gran Metalik and Sin Cara in Cruiserweight Title matches, and then to get back in contention, they wrestle a #1 Contender's Match against each other. Gran Metalik wins that and gets another shot at TJ Perkins, but he fails to win the title there. Sin Cara gets another match with Gran Metalik, but also loses that, and demands a third match with the guy who keeps beating him, and makes it Mask vs. Mask. Gran Metalik wins and Sin Cara unmasks and then gets repackaged in a less racist way in NXT. |
Why exactly did the WWE fire Ivelisse again? I thought it might have been for excessive partying, but I think that was Mickie James and Sareena -- with James also liking being a bit of Cena fallout. Ivelisse seems to claim that it was at least partially because she reported Bill DeMott being a massive piece of shit in developmental.
I just ask, because that woman was, and probably still is, phenomenal. https://wombatsports.files.wordpress...sse-velez1.jpg |
Shayna Baszler also received a tryout at the Performance Center recently. I can't imagine why she wouldn't be signed, unless they don't feel her "pretty" enough.
https://static1.squarespace.com/stat...(43+of+44).jpg |
I can imagine there being some sort of "legit fighter" vibe, or at least an attempt at it, cultivated on the SmackDown side of the Women's Division. Becky Lynch, Shayna, Daria Berenato, Natalya and Asuka could anchor that shit down. It would mean that Alexa Bliss and Carmella would have to jump over to RAW or die though.

Shayna could get hired just for the sole fact she'd be the first lesbian ever signed.... great for media relations nowadays....

But maybe with a less stereotypical/potentially racist ring attire.
Maybe go with tights. Just a more "professional" look, really. |
Itami and Ibushi is cool. Not so big on Roode and Dillenger. Would have rather seen Roode and Aries team for it.

Lince Dorado's theme sounds like something from F-Zero X.

A whole lot of talented people got a tryout. I'm excited to see if any of them get signed.
