There is at least a strong possibility Corbin ruined his own career because he just had to be a dick on Twitter of all places
And it's, at best, the 5th funniest thing of the night

I dont think there will be a rematch. I think there would be if Nak had won, but not now.
Thats not even me being "woe is me everything in the WWE is shit", I just think they will move on to something else.
Then again... what other faces are there on SD? AJ is the US champ and Cena is off to be best buds with Bumblebee so...

There's conflicting info on whether that shakeup is real or just a fake rumor.
Yeah, there's really no one else. Unless the go back to Orton again. No other top faces are built and Nakamura has a built in reasoning for both a rematch and a HIAC match.
ah yeah I guess thats one way to get a new face on SD. That or a call up, but Roode sure as hell isnt coming up as a face (well, not technically, even if he will be over as shit if only for the theme)
I honestly forgot Orton is a face.
Well, I forgot Orton was there really... and I kinda like the guy lol.

From what I understand, the Twitter stuff was less the main reason and more the straw that broke it. He had heat for other various reasons too. He's just not popular backstage.

Jinder and Shinsuke practiced that exact match on the house circuit for months , right down to the endless rest holds and the eventual Kalass. Except I believe in their house show matches Jinder actually pinned Nakamura without the Singh Bros interfering. Had that happened at SummerSlam I would've grabbed my popcorn
Tam Tam's a shooter, brother
Yeah it's up there. At the 36:00 minute mark. Nothing particularly great, just a harmlessly fun match.

Really, if they want to get Nakamura his heat back, he should just actually murder the Singh Bros on Tuesday for costing him the match. I'm talking just annihilation and stretcher jobs and the whole shebang.
I can't imagine what he's doing to get so much heat backstage. Considering it's full of video gaming nerds.
months? feud is like 3 weeks old.

Yeah, I didn't mean to imply it was the only reason or even the biggest, but it was the most public and embarrassing one, and at the worst possible time
They have to stop harping on this Brand stuff, some people just do not benefit at all from trying to act like they're not assholes on social media, and it's going to keep backfiring
They can't all be Luke Harper

I mean it's completely possible he's just a gigantic asshole. That's why no one liked Aries.

They've been wrestling each other in House shows since Jinder became champion at Backlash.

Bobby's gonna answer AJ's open challenge on Tuesday.
We TNA now.
We TNA now.
He also had trouble lifting the stairs and hit Braun in the head with the pointy corner of the stairs.

I need to know why Sasha is champion now of all time with no build lol.
Wasn't inches from, he hit him right in the temple and cut him open.
HEAT...?
I meant the whole stairs landing on his head. It could have been a fucked up injury.

Only things I can think
1. They want to build to her turning heel, and her "stealing" the opportunity from Bayley helps that.
2. They want to extend the Sasha/Alexa program, but didn't want to do another fuck finish after last month.
3. They want to bring Asuka up as a heel and have a strong babyface to challenge.

The endless rest holds are a Jinder staple
I just realised I get the most angry at wwe during Takeover weekends. Probably because the difference is so big between the 2 products in the same company.
It usually doesnt really bother me during the off months, not this much certainly. And I dont do wwe / njpw comparisons anyway.
that someone in the back can even entertain the idea that they can bring Asuka as a heel is hilarious.

I didn't just make the "Mania 32 But One Hour Shorter" comparison for no reason earlier
There were genuinely maybe 2 results all show where "Why?" wasn't applicable, and even then I still think one of the finishes was fucking stupid (Owens/Styles) and could have deserved a "Why?" by itself

Waiting to see who gets called up this week is like the beginning of The Hunger Games.
Most of you will die. One of you might make it out alive by sheer luck.

Yep we should definitely keep lowering the bar.
Yes sir, I'll have another heaping plate of shit please and thank you.
Who will be the lucky man or woman to be added to Kurt Angle's pack of illegitimate children?

Asuka is impossible as a heel. The crowd will turn Sasha.
Man I'd be sad as a Bliss mark but she's basically lost all her mic time after This is Your Life even though that wasn't her fault.
But still kinda bummed Bliss' run is over just like that.
so November for Takeover means still no Ciampa for Johnny.
Adam Cole v Drew Mcintyre
notreDRagon v Sanity
with the ROH cats probably winning all both belts.
wonder what else. Roode wil be long gone most likely by then so no Roddy v Roode. Do we know if they have anyone else signed coming up? I guess some MYC ladies maybe?

Bayley's not going to stop being booed unless she's gone the rest of the year. This being a multi-time thing just this month means the best thing for her will be keeping her the fuck away from TV
So I expect them to do semi-weekly updates on her health like they did with Reigns

You'll keep watching, so what's the point?
She'll lose on a random Smackdown to Lana.
Between Smackdown and Raw she's been champion for 8 months. It's fine.
They aren't getting any money from me.
Who is the current champion
