So what are they doing on Smackdown now? Bray Wyatt vs AJ Styles vs Randy Orton?

I'd be happy with adding Harper, and making it a 4 way elimination match...

Anybody listen to the new Japanese Audio Wrestling? They've got Jojo Remy hosting it now, like Chris he lives in Japan but attends even more live wrestling. Should be good to get the live perspective on stuff other than NJPW, even if I'll miss Chris's input, he was a cool dude.

He had Jae from iheartdg.com on this week, really fasinating when he broke down how Dragon Gate has been booked on the fly for 3 years+ due to injuries and people going away. The fact it's as good as it is with that in mind is a small miracle.

And Tozawa, who could totally help the current main event scene, is wasting away on that embarrassment of a fucking CW division gahhhhHHH

After the brand split she was doing her weird attempt at a face GM while still having crowds hate her

Since it seems like Survivor Series she's been back to coming out every night to yell at the roster for the sake of the #brand

I thought it was pretty obvious she was being fake-nice to people during that period. She was still exactly the same heel, but pretending to be pleasant to get people doing things her way until she couldn't handle being polite to people any more.

Also, NJPW has posted Okada vs. Ibushi from the last anniversary show on njpwworld.com for free. For no reason. NO REASON.

So fucking glad AJ won last night. Even though its looking like a triple threat, im way more down for that than Harper vs Wyatt.

Wasn't it already confirmed on Talking Smack that AJ isn't in the match?

I'm ok with this Harper, AJ, Wyatt and Orton thing going on. It's the only really exciting thing going in all of WWE right now.

Yeah, my only worry now is that they'll just pull the trigger on it all next week and Harper will be lost in the shuffle.

What a campy ending for Smackdown. I wasn't expecting it to go on that direction but I loved it. Smackdown was excellent over all.

Shame this probably means no Triple Threat but I really wish AJ was included in this. He deserves it both in real life and kayfabe. Also, he would make any match better because he is AJ Styles.

Only bummer is the same Cena segment that we have been watching for 10 years. Both he and Miz are great talkers but I can't stand this type of segment and promo anymore. I wish they had created an actual story for this instead of Cena feud 101.

The only way they could improved that Orton/Wyatt segment for me is if Orton had RKOed/Punted Sister Abigail's skeleton.

So I don't watch smack down or Raw I just youtube wrestlers I like or stuff people say was good here but that Randy Orton segment was so lame and wack to me . Maybe it was better on live TV or seeing the whole segment but the youtube clip of that was so fucking wack.

It's wrestling at its most delightfully stupid.

That or we'll get 8 weeks of them facing off in various forms of 1v1 and 2v2 matches. Pretty much like every other feud they have.

As someone who won't be watching Mania live, the one thing I am looking forward to is reactions if Shane goes over.

It missed the mark for me with Randy Orton and his lame I am very boring facial expressions.

Should have been Luke Harper burning down the house with that crazy look on his face then that should have freed Randy Orton for Wyatt's spell and cut to Randy delivering an RKO to Wyatt in the ring.
 
These antibiotics I'm on have rolled me up something crazy. Been feeling like shit.

Gives me a chance to watch some of these Honor Rising matches at least.

Nah needed to be Orton

Oh I'm sure he has watched more than all of us but I like the idea of keeping a list of what I've seen. No idea why, just do. Guess it makes it easier to remember how much I actually watch within a year.
 
If they do go with Shane VS AJ at WM, AJ needs to beat the hell out of him before the match or the week before. WM Bryan says AJ will have a new opponent that he will find out that night.

AJ in the ring waiting. Nakamura music hits.
