Lets be real, McGreggor is not stepping up to Lesnar, ever.

Shut up wimp
"hmm, how can i politick my way into another Dome main event?"
Do as I say, not as I do.
Asuka vs. Bayley II was way better than the first match. I'm a fan of Bayley, but she was way too slow in that first match and Asuka didn't get nearly as much offense in. This one had a much better paced back and forth with some unique spots. Time for Bayley to get called up an make some eight person stable called BLSLMNOP or some shit.

Aw man, if that's the case then that would really suck.

I'll bite your head off
Mmhmm, mmhmm, mmhmm.
But I partially disagree on that last bit. I want her to eventually lose to a monster heel (if one comes along) and then bust out the creeper paint to overcome the oddz. It would be -- as the late, great Jimmy King would've said -- lit.
He has to win booking wise.
Who's the source though? I haven't found anything, but unsubstantiated comments.
Wouldn't surprise me if this is one of those times where people "leak" bullshit to mess with people.

I really liked the match outside of some bizarre no-selling at times from Bayley.

None of it's concrete, it's just what everyone is speculating but we also have to realize that Charlotte could win by count out as well. Sasha doesn't have to lose the strap. If she does I'm going to beat up Zach and post it here.
It's called temporary invincibility due to unmatched determination. Look it up. In a dictionary.
Apart from that website viewership.

I'd be more than happy with your idea!

Nah. WWE just really has a boner for Charlotte for whatever reason. She shouldn't have gone over at Mania as well but they kept her as the champ then too.
Maybe they want to make her a 16 times champ like daddy or something.
People have been trying to come with excuses for why WWE hasnt been pushing Sasha as much as they should for nearly a year now. They probably just dont like her that much.

Books are for losers like Blue.
Even before she "hulked up", she did it. I dunno, it bothered me, especially when Bayley is usually great with selling.
I hope the ratings tank.
They booked themselves into the stupidest possible corner
The ratings don't have much left to tank to tbh
Dead ass company when the TV deal comes due fam

It being slow and brutal was precisely why it was so great. It made it feel real, and it gave the match real storytelling instead of just being a strikefest.

That's just unnecessarily mean.

I find it fascinating that Stro loves Roode yet shits on Aries. I thought he'd hold both of them to some level of contempt because they are short, old indie workers (well, TNA whatever) who are bland as fuck but ¯\_(ツ_/¯
Because Bobby Roode is awesome, and has a great look. Wasn't the best debut match, but the man has shown himself as more than capable over the years. Whereas Aries is a flippy shithead.
Have you considered subscribing to the WWE Network? I understand the first month is free.

Also Bayley's coming up and a feud with champ Charlotte would be face/heel, which is what they like every non-Mania month
Oh? We haven't gotten to football season yet breh. It's about to be a bloodbath.

Charlotte by DQ when Dana attacks Charlotte?
Seems weird with them building up a split just to ignore it, but wouldn't be the first time they did something stupid.

Nailed it. As one of stro's best friends, I can tell you that he doesn't hate old indie guys. He just hates bad wrestlers, of which Austin Aries is one of the exemplars. Conversely, stro also likes good wrestlers, and Bobby Rude is, in stro's words, "Terry Taylor for a new generation, but with much more charisma, and a better look." Stro also likes Rise Against though, so I dunno. Whatever.
I await the inevitable 0.999 rating.
Roode is flat as fuck in ring and only has an entrance right now. His actual look is bland. His house show match I saw with Nakamura was fucking horrendously phoned in on both sides. None of his other work I have seen has had anything special too it. Epitome of just a guy.
I don't get it. Aries strikes me as being marginally more interesting and animated.
Oh yeah I actually can't fucking wait.
to stan for my boy one last time, ratings gonna be tanking with our without Finn. Or anybody else in the company t b h

Where can you not get "normal" WWE Network? And is there not a fancy way around it?
