This along with that nasty hit he gave to Roman's face a while back (not to mention the Hogan kickout he pulled) makes me think Jinder would be out the fucking door if he wasn't so juiced. Smh, going after Vince's top boys.

Maybe they should man the fuck up, pussies. You want fake shit, you go into Hollywood. But if you come in my ring you better be ready to shoot.

 

[serenewarfare]

I could see Joe to SD.

Fills the main event heel void left by Wyatt leaving.

I'm in the Boston area and Dean/Baron for the IC belt is advertised for Smackdown tomorrow night.

So is Bray/AJ/Orton for the World Championship.

One of those is definitely a dark main event. Probably the second one.

I guess it's possible Dean drops the title tomorrow, but I don't see it. He wouldn't have beaten Owens as cleanly as he did only to lose to Baron the next night.

If that was the case they would have protected Owens more. That finish said to me "Dean is the top champ on Raw now because Brock isn't coming back for months".

 

[Bubba T]

I actually think SD could salvage Roman.

Not if they book him like they had in the past.

 

[funkystudent]

Kinda surprised Reigns didnt stand up after that beating and KO Braun with 1 superman punch.


Also if RAW gets Ambrose and the IC belt I assume SD will get Owens and the US belt?

 

[GavinUK86]

RAW got THE DRIFTER!!!

Drifter!

 

[Brian_FETO]

Lol if these guess lists are accurate then Smackdown is gonna look like what people were predicting for the initial draft

 

[GunBR]

Watching Balor tonight made me think again why WWE didn't used him to retire Taker? Yeah Reigns is Vince baby, but c'mon.

Balor is really over with the crowd, the Demon King vs The Dead Man is a feud that sells itself, and he's already selling a bunch of merch

 

[Cheetos is Pretty Awesome]

wow hawkins got NO reaction for that promo lmao. i feel bad for the guy

 

[BewareTheBatsie]

It's gonna hurt to see Miz in a nothing feud three weeks from now.

 

[Hidden One]

Jinder going for that brass ring.

 

[Bluekaveli]

Is that what your pal JBL suggested?

Nah JBL said he should let off some steam and tie a naked guy to a chair and slap him a few times

Maybe they'll send JBL to nxt as a promo trainer.

He's gonna do this at Payback

Balor looks like he took that Braun beatdown for real. Holy shit...

Link?

Bring back the best NXT GM you mean, maggle!

Taker's last feud didn't involve much selling or build up.

In retrospect, that match became so totally consumed by Taker's retirement that you guys should be happy it went to Roman.

 

[Professor Beef]

Roman on talking smack would probably be like his UUDD appearances, which ain't bad. #ahhyessir

 

[Bronx-Man]

I wouldn't be surprised if Andrade shows up tomorrow.

 

[serenewarfare]

Very likely we see Andrade tomorrow night too.

I think he's getting a big push. Vince wanted Alberto back and couldn't get him, so now he'll push Andrade instead.

 

[BewareTheBatsie]

Poor Alexa gonna be beating no one on Raw.

Give Mickie the old gimmick and have her pretend Alexa is Trish.

 

[Bluekaveli]

I don't blame Jinder, beat up the boys and take their spots. Just like seth, if you sens them all home they have no choice but to make you the man.

 

[Alucard]

How was Balor's match, btw? What did Jinder do?

 

[Tagyhag]

wow hawkins got NO reaction for that promo lmao. i feel bad for the guy

It's funny that he had more heat as part of La Familia than this.

 

[Rimfya]

Jinder going for that brass ring

 

[blackaroni]

If Roman doesn't show up on Raw next week, then who will Braun beat down until then? Sami? Braun is going to be on a war path until his eventual match with Brock.

 

[serenewarfare]

Hellbows

 

[Man God]

I like how Blue definitely turned heel after watching too much wrestling. Spices up the thread.

 

[BewareTheBatsie]

Which lead to the above picture of Finn's face being marked up.

 

[Bluekaveli]

Dude was so over with that crowd. He's a great authority figure.

LAST great faction. 😔 I miss high school.

 

[Discotheque]

Roman on talking smack would probably be like his UUDD appearances, which ain't bad. #ahhyessir

he's okay on there. but even then he doesn't have the charisma of a lot of the other guys.

his d'bag swagger would work so well for a heel character though. i don't get why Vince keeps fighting against it. that 'segment' last week on Raw was so good lol, just silence and boos and 'this is my yard now' followed by more boos and him leaving. just annoy the crowd and look like you're enjoying their frustration.

 

[blackaroni]

Same thing happened to strobogo....

 

[avengers23]

Imagine Roman on Talking Smack.

Maybe they can get The Rock to do all his talkingnfor him.

 

[GavinUK86]

Very likely we see Andrade tomorrow night too.

I think he's getting a big push. Vince wanted Alberto back and couldn't get him, so now he'll push Andrade instead.

At least we get the more talented guy this way.

 

[GunBR]

It's gonna hurt to see Miz in a nothing feud three weeks from now.

I was sure that he was going to get the WWE title during football season

Now he will probably be fighting in the pre-show in a Tag match with Hawkins vs Big Show and Crews at Summerslam

 

[Hidden One]

How was Balor's match, btw? What did Jinder do?

He stiffed the fuck out of Balor.

 

[Brian_FETO]

Link?

No link, I just mean what everyone here assumed since no one really had any idea

Like "oh you won't have New Day and Enzo/Cass on the same brand" and "oh Rusev has to be going to SD" and "KO or Sami are going for sure"

Then you throw in Nakamura callup predictions at the time

 

[LionPride]

I have somehow become a Roman and Braun mark in the last few months

I don't get it

I need another ae run. I've lost my juice 😔😔

[ReiGun]

Poor Alexa gonna be beating no one on Raw.

I actually like how the Raw women division looks after tonight. There's enough interesting feuds to last them until the next reshuffling.

Smackdown should be fine too. If they can get Charlotte and Emma, and maybe an NXT callup, they might have something. Tamina is supposed to be returning too.

 

[Man God]

Same thing happened to strobogo....

Over almost exactly the same time frame too.

Blue at least has steady employ and isn't hitting up any Indiana sweat hogs.

 

[serenewarfare]

Roman has this weird thing where he's really good at bumping and getting beat up, but not very good at selling or getting sympathy.

 

[Beefy]

I need another ae run. I've lost my juice 😔😔

Jinder has it.

 

[The Silver]

Maybe they can get The Rock to do all his talkingnfor him.

The Rock's little buddy

 

[LiQuid!]

The Iconic Duo would definitely lesson the sting of losing Alexa.

 

[Professor Beef]

I don't get it

I'll put in a good word for you with the Roman War Wagon. #ahhhyessir

 

[gaiadyne]

My prediction for tomorrow night. Enzo and Big Cass calling the Usos SAWFT

 

[Man God]

Roman has this weird thing where he's really good at bumping and getting beat up, but not very good at selling or getting sympathy.

He's okay at selling but he definitely gets no sympy.

 

[Biggest-Geek-Ever]

This is when I knew Roman Reigns had the shittest instincts.
