And that concludes the most interesting thing about this event. Zing!

 

[Alucard]

Of all the people Cena looses too, it will certainly be a new guy in his first match from NXT.

We can certainly hope so.

 

[Alucard]

Zombie Cara? Looks lizard-like.

 

[Hex]

Now they just need Bray to come out with his spooky entrance and make a long winded speech about being the face of fear and being all "oooooooh" and then the lights go off and Finn Balor's music hits.

 

[slightconfuse]

 

[Sweeney Tom]

You guys really think wrestling against John Cena is career suicide?

I think you guys are being ridiculous, honestly.

Of course not. Wrestling John Cena is fine.

It's literally everything that comes after that that's career suicide.

Like Ambrose said in the shoot: "the second you lose to Cena, you become just like everyone else"

 

[Recall]

Remember when John Cena destroyed the nexus angle flat because, which he later admitted, he wanted to protect his spot.

Just watched Kevin Owens' RAW debut and I loved it. Enjoyable mic work from both and I'm looking forward to their match way more than I thought I would.

 

[Striker]

Edge is the only guy who was in a long-term feud with Cener and came away better for it. It's kind of strange as to why he would but not other guys; granted Orton in 2007-2009 when they feuded non stop was a complete bore. I still think he is, but the feud never really elevated him as a top guy in the company like they tried time and time again to do.

I always wondered where Lashley would've went had he stayed. Because right before he left, he had a good back and forth match with him at the Great American Bash. Hurt his shoulder during it and left months later.

 

[klonere]

 

[Recall]

So basically Global Force Wrestling is just WCW version 3 or have they actually got bookers and workers who give a damn?

 

[slightconfuse]

Now you have my attention

 

[Ithil]

RAW worth watching?

 

[Sweeney Tom]

They have 2 nights where Brodus Clay fights Moose. You know deep down what the answer is

Even edge wasn't though. He fucked off to the Raw midcard for a year before stealing moth from Kennedy.

Correct.
The problem is, Cena will put someone over and will lose to them.
But then you have to have at least two other matches where he beats you to remind people that he is the best.

 

[MG310]

I fucking love what WWE did with Owens last night.

I love even more that they booked a match between him and Cena at EC.

Now, if they book that match like Zayn vs. Owens I, they are masterminds.

I'm going with Owens losing in the usual Cena open challenge style and then giving him the powerbomb on the apron or Owens getting DQ'ed.

Either way Cena still tries to go through with the challenge on Raw the Monday after and loses there...to Sami Zayn.

Owens gets to run around claiming credit for destroying Cena and for Sami's success.

Sami put the belt on his shoulder to celebrate and the weight causes an injury. Title relinquished.

 

[imBask]

Guys I think the darkest timeline might be behind us for real this time

 

[spindashing]

Perfectly okay with Owens winning the US championship and Joey Samoey taking his place in NXT.

 

[El Pescado]

They'll book it exactly like Zayn vs. Owens I. Kevin Owens will be playing the part of Sami Zayn though. Cena will cut a "You got guts (under that gut), kid" promo the next night on Raw and Kevin Owens will form an unsuccessful tag team with Mojo Rawley.

 

[imBask]

The Mojowens?

 

[Sephzilla]

People actually think Owens is going to beat Cena?

 

[Striker]

Even edge wasn't though. He fucked off to the Raw midcard for a year before stealing moth from Kennedy.

Some midcard filler feuding with Shawn Michaels and Triple H. And teaming with some arsehole who kept getting into trouble.

 

[imBask]

i'm thinking Owens win tomorrow and Zayn cost Owens the match against Cena somehow

 

[Sephzilla]

Actually upon further thought, Cena dropping the belt to a new guy just a couple of weeks after wrapping up a 4 month long feud with Rusev is the most Cena thing humanly possible.

POWER OF JUNE™!

Psst

When wrestling is at its best you believe anyone can win.

 

[joelseph]

The Mojowens?

Last of the Mojowekans.

 

[klonere]

guys

Owens is going to be in the Authority, gonna win at EC with Authority interference.

Quote me on this.

 

[Aiii]

Psst

June is more of an abstract feeling than a set date in time.

Alternatively, we're just building up to the POWER OF JUNE™ and it's only going to get better as we build to Money in the Bank.

 

[Hasney]

Psst

End of Rocket League Beta 2 RIP

 

[Nocturnowl]

Oh yeah May 19th, Happy Kane day everyone.
Here's to another decade of never ending service, jobbing and people saying "you used to be a monster" leading to teases that ultimately go nowhere.

 

[spindashing]

End of Rocket League Beta 2 RIP

...FUCK. I didn't enjoy it enough.

 

[slightconfuse]

Power of,June is no more. It the power of August now

 

[lovely ladies]

I'm gonna be really disappointed if his WWE name isn't Joey Samoey at this point.

 

[Data West]

I'm gonna be really disappointed if his WWE name isn't Joey Samoey at this point.

In an attempt to mock the WWE, the ISEC has somehow created a FAR superior name to anything WWE or their roster would come up with.

 

[Fox318]

I still like Joe Uso.

 

[Dick Justice]

 

[XenoRaven]

Then you remember this company is run by conservative republicans.

 

[Data West]

How did Lana go from the one holding the leash with the power to the damsel.

Oh. Right. Vince McMahon owns this company.
