No the fuck they aren't? Corbin and Orton get a whole 20 minutes. Fuck this.

 

[Dark Ninja]

After that promo package. Ziggler has done nothing in the WWE.

Spoiler

Good

 

[BewareTheBatsie]

ORTON WITH THE JOBBER ENTRANCE?!

Maybe Rusev runs out and attacks them during this?

edit: also fuck ziggler

 

[excelsiorlef]

Lol crickets for Randy

*headlock*

 

[Professor Beef]

Sami your announcement should have been 40% off all rides in your uber from now until Backlash

i love thecoli lmao

 

[Bluekaveli]

Sadly the game is on commercial. What in the hell is their problem? They could've had at least two more segments. No one wants to see these two go for 20 minutes. Hell, no one wants to see Orton go for twenty minutes period.

 

[serenewarfare]

Yes.

No glowing reviews from what I can see.

It's not a great show, but it's fine. Just a standard go-home show.

 

[Syder]

It's not a great show, but it's fine. Just a standard go-home show.

As expected, SD should hopefully improve once they take Nakamura out of the packaging.

I think Smackdown should be able to get a bit better when the Jinder shit ends and the women get a singles feud.

Plus MITB build up is always good for the titular match.

 

[serenewarfare]

This show tonight has been the definition of middle of the road.

A good opening match

A great tag team segment

A decent promo from the women

An okay women's match

A Ziggler promo

An okay promo from Sami

And now an Orton/Corbin match that will probably be fine.

Get over it, Jinder is the new heel. If you don't like it, don't watch it.

Damn Sami fans.

asdfghjkl

erick gonna shoot

edit: uh did tom just call becky bayley

 

[Dark Ninja]

Give Jinder the title Orton is boring as the champion he just doesn't care enough or isn't on enough drugs anymore to be entertaining. Stop giving Ziggler promos he's awful.

 

[TarpitCarnivore]

Nak and Ziggler better be a hell of a match for all the hype they're building


Why has New Day been off air for so long?

And ffs how much can they stretch out Randy's entrance and the match. That felt like 10 minutes of commercials.

 

[ambar_hitman]

She pinned Sasha? What the hell is going on at Raw?

Yeah it was clean. More bullshit than Roman winning vs Finn.
The crowd went silent when Sasha was pinned. A faint bullshit chant started.

I love these 205 Live "Pick Me" WCW Nitro for PSX rants

 

[blackaroni]

TJP sounds and acts like a CW villain.

 

[avengers23]

Spoilers: they won't.

 

[Professor Beef]

Just gonna skip 205 Dive and wait for Talking Smack

 

[BewareTheBatsie]

corbin my boy needs heat to get the mitb briefcase so my other boy sami needs to do the job on sunday sorry

Exactly. Orton is the drizzling shits and has been for the past 10 years or so.

 

[Dark Ninja]

Corbin has the most uncomfortable walk to the ring.

I don't know where this myth of Ziggler being a bad wrestler came from, but he's great in the ring. It's everything other than the actual wrestling he's not good at.

He and Nakamura will have a great match.

 

[Caderfix]

We talk about how bad the "we are awesome", "what" and "fight forever" chants are, can we agree that "usa usa usa" is just as bad?

 

[BewareTheBatsie]

bitch they just did the same spot three times in a row

No.

On gaf, if they don't agree with their politics and philosophies, they're a shit performer.

Soft ass fans.

 

[Wagram]

The riveting headlock that everyone pays money to see.

As long as a 2 year old chimp is commander in chief. Yes.

I skipped SD to play Injustice 2

I am terrible at fighting games

 

[Bluekaveli]

I can't believe Corbin may win mitb. I really can't believe this shit.

I know, it's great.

I feel you. I suck.

 

[excelsiorlef]

Lol this match has zero heat...

Way to go Randy... you silenced 10k

Much better than some indy fuck getting the 1.5k to blow the roof off...

Being able to get good heat and having people care about you adds to the emotional quality of the match though. Nobody cares about Ziggler. It probably makes people actively less interested.

 

[Bluekaveli]

I know, it's great.

Corbin is Orton 2.0

 

[BewareTheBatsie]

Corbin is Orton 2.0

Scust

 

[RecRoulette]

Ziggler is totally winning on Sunday, fuck.

 

[Caderfix]

I know, it's great.

You're God damn right.

 

[excelsiorlef]

:O

Main event for my Smackdown Houseshow I'm going to is currently scheduled to be Owens vs Nakamura!!!!

A great story can make people care about a match at a higher level. That's obvious.

But you can have a great match without a great story. Nakamura is over enough already (especially when the PPV is in a hot town like Chicago), that the crowd will be super into the match no matter what.

 

[excelsiorlef]

Ziggler is totally winning on Sunday, fuck.

Based on fucking what?

 

[serenewarfare]

Ziggler is totally winning on Sunday, fuck.

lol no he's not

I'd bet anything

 

[excelsiorlef]

This match is a fucking dud

 

[BewareTheBatsie]

ziggler is not winning

 

[Sinatar]

Ziggler is totally winning on Sunday, fuck.

You live in some kind of delusional drug addled fantasy world if you actually believe that.

 

[serenewarfare]

Yeah, it seems like that's the next feud after Ziggler. Wonder where that leaves AJ. I speculated earlier that they might feud him and Jinder.

Scust

Yes, yes you are.
