The book about the death of wcw is way more entertaining than the series.

Oh yeah, I totally agree.

 

[SilentMike03]

If you have a Japanese man face an Indian man at Summerslam, who is the crowd supposed to feel patriotic about and chant "USA" for?

 

[ratcliffja]

Nakamura isn't taking a clean loss yet. Not even to Cena.

Maybe we get a three way or maybe someone screws someone out of the match, but I don't think there's a clean finish next week.

For no good reason, Baron will interfere and we'll get Nakamura vs Corbin yet again.

 

[TarpitCarnivore]

To be honest Cena vs Nak should be a PPV match.
Not because I give a shit for Cena but it is two of the biggest names ever

They backed themselves into a corner of needing to use these larger matches as regular weekly programming. These weren't unheard of in the past. The problem is they're clearly attempted ratings boosters

 

[serenewarfare]

I'd like to remind everyone that we were all so sure that AJ was losing to Cena at Summerslam last year.

I'm not saying Nak is gonna win, but we don't know what's gonna happen until it does.

Themselves

Lol this might actually happen.

 

[Sweeney Tom]

After a crappy PPV, tonight's TV show almost seems like an apology for Battleground

That along with Cena/Nakamura being announced for free TV...............all this reminds me of WCW......

Couldn't be, ratings aren't on a freefall from a year agoh wait

 

[Toki767]

Is there something going on next week that has WWE worried or something?

Reigns/Joe/Strowman on Raw and Cena/Nakamura on Smackdown.

Ratings bumps. I wonder if they have a quarterly coming up.

 

[MG310]

Nakamura vs. Jinder seems like a way too obvious Corbin cash-in.

 

[ambar_hitman]

OT but is anyone interested in watching The Dark Tower? The trailers are so meh but all the names are so big. I want to watch for the names but the trailers don't impress me at all.

then sadfaced

Their quarterly results are announced Thursday, so the ratings next week don't factor in.

I'll probably go see it some time after it releases.

 

[peteykirch]

Which would be hilarious if Nak won, and still battered and injured would still find a way to beat Corbin.

 

[somedevil]

Now shane vs owens?

 

[TimeEffect]

Theyll chant USA anyway

I'm sure an influx of promo codes are about to go out

 

[Beefy]

English the SD version of Samson

 

[ramoisdead]

I like Aiden English.

 

[Egg0]

Aiden looks like Cesaro when he had hair.

 

[serenewarfare]

Nakamura vs. Jinder seems like a way too obvious Corbin cash-in.

I said this a month ago. It's standard WWE booking. Nakamura beats Jinder, Corbin cashes in, and we as fans know Nakamura can beat Corbin because we saw it tonight, so that's the heat.

 

[Sinatar]

Well they want Summerslam to be a WM level event, so I guess they're wheeling out Shane to jump off something again.

 

[The Strokes]

Friend told me they're gonna do Cena vs Nakamura on Smackdown next week. Are they that desperate?

I mean, someone's gonna interrupt that match, right? What's the stipulation? Winner faces Jinder at Summerslam?

 

[HashtagLapsed]

Wait, Cena got Rusev to tap in that flag match?

That is some straight up Hogan tier shit LOL.

 

[slightconfuse]

Cena vs Nakamura

I smell a screwy finish

 

[ramoisdead]

I really like that transitional intro of English to Kanellis. They should be a tag team if this singles thing doesn't work out.

 

[ambar_hitman]

This segment is shown so many times. Ughh.

 

[Hex]

Even his facial expressions look like Eric Young's vegan less homeless twin

gotta get that heat brother

heel standing tall for the 12th ppv in a row this year


also who would cena face if not jinder? aj? randy?

Khali. Who will interfere next week.

Sounds like what they did with Bryan.

 

[serenewarfare]

I think it's as simple as whoever wins Cena vs. Nakamura next week faces Jinder. Whoever loses is in the US Title match, probably facing AJ.

 

[SallyIsNow]

Dawn of the Dead(2004) still

 

[Sweeney Tom]

The rumor I posted this month was literally

Spoiler

Styles. Again.

 

[Arrowgigantic]

Well, more hair.

 

[FallingEdge]

Cena vs Nakamura

Corbin will interfer.

 

[Sweeney Tom]

Dawn of the Dead(2004) still

I knew you'd love it <3

In retrospect I was sad it was Snyder's feature directorial debut because it was literally all downhill from there.

Sucker Punch is still one of the worst major theatrical releases I've seen a name director make in my lifetime, and I have no doubt the Watchmen TV show will be a thousand times better than the movie was

Not even gonna mention BVS

 

[yuraya]

Not really a fan of them just having a Cena vs Nak match like that. That should be a rivalry that lasts many months with many great matches like Cena vs Styles did last year.

They're both babyfaces though and it wouldn't make sense to make Nakamura a heel, at least not right now. So they can't have the same kind of series AJ and Cena did.

 

[MG310]

I'm happy English is actually getting on the show regularly now.

Ziggler/Kanellis seems like the more natural tag pairing though.

 

[Beefy]

Tye is dead

 

[serenewarfare]

Tye is dead

Not as dead as Mike.

Holy shit they killed him fast.

 

[ramoisdead]

Welp...at least they are protecting Aiden English...sort of.

 

[Velcro Fly]

Love is over!

 

[RBH]

I long for the days when Tye Dillinger was a heel

 

[JohnDrake]

Where is Ziggler lol? He hasn't showed up for like a month.

 

[Indelible]

Maria deserves better than this shit gimmick.

 

[serenewarfare]

Where is Ziggler lol? He hasn't showed up for like a month.

Hopefully gone.
